I wonder whether "Mohs Surgery" could be an option for you (see http://www.melanoma.org/learn-more/melanoma-101/types-therapy-melanoma ).

It is mostly used for melanoma on the face. Not sure whether they also use it for lesions on the upper arm. And it requires a specialist surgeon. But maybe it is worth investigating…
