Anyone used Gentle Cure for Basal Cell Carcinoma? [View all]

I had a biopsy done today that the dermatologist believes is Basal Cell. I’ll have official results in a few days.

She told me to think about two options: MOH surgery (usually one visit and you’re done) or GentleCure (about 20 short visits).

I wanted to know if anyone has any experience with GentleCure.

I feel lucky to have caught this reasonably early and to actually have options!!! Thanks in advance for any input.
