Mohs Surgery
Mohs micrographic surgery is a specialized surgical treatment for the removal of skin cancer. Mohs surgery is highly effective. It offers the highest potential for recovery for all skin cancer treatments. This state-of-the-art treatment technique removes the skin cancer and only a very small amount of surrounding healthy tissue. The skin cancer is carefully mapped to create a precise guide for the surgeon. Mohs surgery removes skin cancer in very thin layers, which are immediately examined to ensure that all of the cancer’s roots and extensions are removed. The process is methodically repeated until no cancer cells are noted on the specimen.
