Until all basal cell skin area is gone. Then the area willl be stitched up and you are on your way. No big deal, really. My treatment on the side of my nose healed fine with nothing visible, not even a trace! And no reoccurence in about 10 years so far.
Yep, that's how my procedure went. Except mine was on an ear so I have small bit size chunk missing. Long hair keeps it covered.
