Skin Cancer Surgery

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States, but when detected early, it's highly treatable. Our surgical approach focuses on complete removal of cancerous tissue while preserving healthy skin and achieving optimal cosmetic results.

Types of Skin Cancer We Treat:

  • Basal Cell Carcinoma (most common type)
  • Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Our Surgical Approach:

  • Immediate pathological examination
  • Advanced reconstruction techniques
  • Minimal scarring and optimal healing

Frequently Asked Questions:

After a biopsy confirms cancer, we'll discuss surgical options based on the type, size, and location of the cancer.
While some scarring is inevitable, our advanced techniques minimize scarring and optimize healing.

MOHS Micrographic Surgery
