Nodular BCC was biopsy confirmed on my nose.
These pictures demonstrate a 5 week progress of topical treatment with Aldara.

Given the fact that Aldara is not recommended nor approved for use on the nose looks like you squeeked by this time, IF, Aldara got the underlying cancer cells and not just those at the surface. Time will tell, but looks good for now. Best of luck.

Paul, thank you so much for this. Do you go back for a clearance from the derm? Let us know what he/she says. I have 3 more days to go on a 12 week course of Aldara on my chin once a day at bedtime for 5 days on and two days off. Then I wait several weeks and see the derm in early January.

Aldara1, I am still waiting for the FDA site you told us about. I can't find it and need your help.
