It's important that they got everything out therefore a little bigger than you would think. The option is to either burn it away and leave a quarter sized ($0.25) white burn mark on my arm, or once the swelling goes down and it heels, a small scar on my arm (and one on leg). I'll take the scar and the removal of all cancerous cells over having to go back a second time or a big white spot on my arm. He did an excellent job.
Chicks dig scars. Chicks are scared off weird looking white spots.
Already have stories made up for both...good stuff!
by the way, those photos are freshly taken like 30 seconds after the doc was done, so there's plenty of swelling due to anesthesia. they are purposely sown that way so that once they heal up and swelling goes down, they are flat to the skin surface and NOT like craters. once heeled, they'll be small straight lines, not butcher cuts. (I think. at least that's what he said)
Those are future scars, hopefully not too bad. They will get much bigger after the stitches come out if you continue to run. You might ask about extra steri-strips to hold it tight in place for extended time.
Who did you see? Hope it feels better soon. I bet you are a bit sore there today. Ouch! Been there.

Dang! I have a couple of places I need to have looked at, but I will NOT be seeing your doctor. Those incisions are HUGE.
