There's also the new treatment ("GentleCure&quot which is a type of radiation given in very small doses. It is acceptable for some forms of skin cancer but not melanoma. It leaves redness, I'm told, but not to the degree that these creams do.

(I just went through a skin cancer scare and had several discussions with my dermatologist. Mine turned out to be precancerous actinic keratosis and was able to be frozen. I considered myself VERY lucky.) Some of the pictures that I saw were really pretty gruesome from the creams.
