Surgical Dermatology
Expert Surgical Dermatologists
Dermatologists are well versed in the various surgical procedures available to treat non-melanoma skin cancer, such as basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. This expertise also includes the important task of diagnosing and treating melanoma, which is the most dangerous type of skin cancer. In addition to cancerous growths, atypical or dysplastic moles, bothersome cysts, and lipomas are among some of the other common skin conditions surgically treated by dermatologists. Removal of these various lesions is done in the office using local anesthesia only, thereby saving patients the expense of a trip to the operating room or the risks of general anesthesia. Furthermore, this in-office procedure allows patients to get home sooner, with a secure bandage in place, and provides them the ability to get back to their daily lives
