This lesion is characteristic of basal cell carcinoma, which is treated with
electrodessication and curettage. Melanoma lesions are usually asymmetric
lesions with irregular borders, variable coloration, >6 mm diameter, which are
elevated; these should be referred immediately. All suspicious lesions should
be biopsied; until the results are known, the provider should not reassure the
patient that the lesion is benign. Squamous cell carcinoma is roughened,
scaling, and bleeds easily.
