Though a mole, blemish, or birthmark is a normal occurrence due to changes in skin cells and discoloration over time, for some patients, particularly those who have a family history or past diagnosis of skin cancer, it may be more of a concern. Visit a dermatologist at Gardens Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery Center in Palm Beach Gardens, FL, to have your skin examined and learn if you may be a candidate for Mohs surgery.
What Is Mohs Surgery?
Mohs surgery is a dermatological procedure that uses microscopic examination of skin tissue to effectively remove abnormal or cancerous cells. Unlike basic excision surgery, Mohs surgery reviews 100 percent of the cells under a microscope before they are removed to ensure that only the abnormal part of the skin is treated. Patients and doctors may prefer this procedure to reduce scarring and minimize the need for reconstructive cosmetic skin surgery. It also has a high cure rate for patients.
Who Is a Candidate for Mohs Surgery?
Mohs surgery can be effective for treating all types of skin cancer, but it is most often recommended for patients who have basal cell or squamous carcinomas. Melanomas can sometimes be more complicated to treat as they can reach deeper levels of the skin. Your Palm Beach Gardens, FL, doctor may recommend Mohs surgery if these conditions apply:
The skin cancer diagnosis has an aggressive pattern and needs immediate treatment.
Larger growths or marks on the skin. The precision of this procedure can preserve more healthy skin cells.
The treatable area is in a sensitive or highly visible region, such as the face, hands, or genitals.
Preventing Potentially Cancerous Skin Growths
Whether you have had Mohs surgery in the past or you are at risk for developing skin cancer, here are some prevention tips to keep in mind:
Avoid direct contact with UV rays from the sun and do not use tanning salons.
Use sunscreen on the entire body, including in facial moisturizers.
Conduct daily at-home skin exams.
Visit your dermatologist at least twice per year for skin checkups or whenever you notice a new, unusual skin growth.
