First trip to dermatologist

I am a teacher and since I have the summer off, and it is almost over, I took the first appointment I could get. Wednesday, July 16th at 8 am with the Physician Assistant. I didn't think about taking a before photo until the PA had already marked on my face with a pen. At this visit, a biopsy was taken of my spot and I received 2 stitches. The PA's initial "hunch" was I had a basil cell cancer on my eye. Those are typically pink in color and non-evasive. Will probably need it removed when the lab results come back.
I was given a nice little band-aid and sent on my way. Results will take 7-10 days and I am to return in a week to remove the stitches.
