Mohs Cancer Surgery

Mohs surgery, named after Dr. Frederic Mohs who developed the technique, is a specialized surgical procedure primarily used for skin cancer treatment. It is a precise and highly effective technique to remove skin cancer while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible.

The procedure is performed in stages, where the surgeon removes thin layers of tissue one at a time and immediately examines them under a microscope. This process allows for real-time assessment of the tissue margins, ensuring complete removal of cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue. The surgeon continues removing layers until no cancer cells are detected. Mohs surgeons are specially trained in this technique, giving patients confidence in achieving optimal results.

Mohs surgery is commonly used for basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), which are the most common types of skin cancer. It has the highest cure rate and provides excellent cosmetic outcomes, making it particularly beneficial for skin cancers in cosmetically sensitive areas, such as the face. Our qualified Mohs dermatology provider ensures you receive a comprehensive evaluation and a personalized treatment plan tailored to your condition.
