Nodular BCC on forehead. Mohs or Standard Excision?

Hey everyone, new to this forum. 👋🏼

I've just been told I have a nodular BCC on the forehead after a biopsy a few weeks ago, the consultant has said standard excision would be ok to remove it, however, I can have Mohs surgery if I want, but would have to travel. I know Mohs will leave less of a scar, anyone with experience have an idea what a scar would be like with standard excision?
