I had a tiny squamous cell carcinoma on the side of my nose it must have been the size of a pin it was a bit of flaky skin that I showed to my doctor and when I got to see him there was nothing there and he thought it was OK and said that they tend to go away over winter and over the next 12 months there was a tiny bit of skin there off and on and when I saw a doctor for a full body mole mapping I told him about it and I remembered this time that it had been treated before with liquid nitrogen. So he said we had better do a punch test on it (they take a core sample) and it was so small that he got it all with the punch test and to be sure I had to treat my nose with a corrosive cream called Efudix which attacks solar keritosis which has the potential to turn into skin cancer. Later I did the rest of my face (last winter) and after recovering from that I did my neck front and back and have just done my hands and arms. Here are a couple of pic's of what people look like when they are treated.

Most people who are fair skinned and have had quite a bit of sun exposure especially if they live somewhere like Australia would have solar keritosis under there skin it only comes up red where there is solar keritosis.

It's a bit uncomfortable my nose was 3 weeks of treatment and about 3 weeks recovery then my face the same my neck I did for 2 weeks and this year the back of my hands and arms 2 weeks. But some people have it for much much longer.
