Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) On The Neck (Near To Cheek)
Infiltrative Basal Cell Carcinomas on the neck can be subtle and difficult to define visually — when edges are indistinct, treatments like Mohs surgery offer the highest chance of complete removal while preserving healthy skin.

This basal cell carcinoma is an ‘infiltrative’ type. It is not very raised, but does have fine vessels on the surface (these are called telangiectasia).
The infiltrative BCCs can be more difficult to treat as they can have fine ‘roots’ which can’t be seen by eye. In this picture, the edges of the basal cell carcinoma are fairly indistinct, so Mohs surgery would be very useful to give the best chance of cure and preserve as much ‘normal’ skin as possible.
