Could this be a BCC

Hi There, I suffer from mild acne and completed a course of Roaccutane about one year ago. Now and then with stress etc. I still break out in mild acne, so it is not uncommon for me to get pimples. In the area under my lip I had a breakout which took a while to go away. However, all the pimples around are now gone, but this spot won't go away (I religiously apply EpiDuo to the area every night). Is it possible this is a BCC? I'm no expert, but it does looks similar to the nodular type I have seen on images.

    If any doubts then go in and let your Doctor take a look. It would probably ease your mind.
