Skin Cancer/Mohs Surgery
Skin Cancer/Mohs Surgery
The most common form of cancer in the United States is skin cancer. There are three types: basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma, skin cancer's most aggressive form.
If not treated early, some forms of skin cancer can spread to other tissues and organs. Treatment depends on the type of cancer and location, but most cancers can easily be removed with several treatments that are tailored to the type of lesion and the individual.
In more severe cases, Mohs micrographic surgery can be performed. Mohs surgery is an advanced treatment procedure with the highest cure rate of all skin cancer treatments—up to 99%, even if all other forms of treatment have previously failed.
At Great Lakes Dermatology, Dr. Douglas Leone is our physician that specialises in Mohs micrographic surgery.
