              You would be, wholesale removal of all of them would leave me with very little skin left to cover my body.! Wholesale removal is not our goal. We have been focusing in the bad looking ones. There a just lot of bad looking ones. Your information in the pigmentation was helpful.

                          I am with a new derm. My old derm did not remove many, which is not a good thing because everything that the new derm has excised has come back as moderate or severe. So it is necessary for them to come off with clear margins. She has photographs everything and does use shaving. I agree that shavings are more aggravating than dealing with stitches.

                                Thank you. That answer helps a great deal. Funny you should mention regroth, because I have had a shaving regrow. There are o many that I am in the derm office every 2 weeks or so to have stitches removed and new biopsies done. The derm doesn’t like to do more than 4 at a time. It is almost like a hobby at this point.

                                I am thinking that I should start asking for copies of my path reports.
