I've re-excised melanoma's in young people and excised moles that I didn't think looked like melanomas that came back as being them. Metastatic melanoma kills. The recovery room of one of our local hospitals is named after a nurse who died at age 32 of metastatic melanoma.

No physician wants to be the one who says - don't worry about that -

having said that, if a dr recommends excision, and you're hesitant, get a second opinion.

but I also think that dermatologists see and biopsy so many lesions, that after a while, they should be able to be very selective in what they biopsy.
