SURGICAL TREATMENT FOR SKIN CANCER

GDI performs the most effective technique available in treating skin cancer. Performed in an outpatient procedure, Mohs surgery entirely removes the affected skin cancer area while sparing the surrounding healthy skin.

GDI surgery offers a cure rate that is higher than 99%. Additional benefits include:

1. No guesswork. The surgeon creates a precise map of cancerous cells and the margins of healthy tissue. 

2. Mohs typically removes the entirety of cancerous cells in an area, significantly reducing the chances of recurrence. 

3. The conservative, precision technique preserves the greatest amount of healthy tissue. 

4. Cancer treatment and reconstructive repair, if needed, can often be scheduled for the same day.

Surgery

Commonly used to remove large skin cancers, skin cancers in hard-to-reach places, recurrent skin cancers, and those occurring in areas where preservation of the skin is essential (such as the tissue surrounding the eyes and nose). This procedure can be performed on basal cell or squamous cell carcinomas. It may also be useful for melanoma.

We perform surgical excision (the technique of cutting out the lesion along with a small amount of the surrounding healthy skin), electrodessication and curettage (the method of burning the lesion with electrical currents and scraping it away with a curette), and cryosurgery (the application of liquid nitrogen to destroy the cancerous lesion) for the treatment of superficial, ( early stage skin cancer.)

 The recommended surgical method will be determined based on the size and number of lesions, whether the lesions are recurring or not, the depth and location of the lesions, and any preexisting medical conditions you may have.
