Surgical Dermatology

Skin Cancer Surgery & Excisions

Surgical removal of skin cancers and suspicious lesions with clear margins, performed in-office with attention to both cure and cosmetic results.

When skin cancer or a suspicious lesion needs to be removed, surgical excision is a reliable, well-established treatment. Our dermatologic surgeons remove the cancer along with a margin of healthy tissue to help ensure it is completely cleared.

Most excisions are performed in our office under local anesthesia and take a single visit. We send the removed tissue to a laboratory for analysis to confirm that the margins are clear and that no further treatment is needed.

Throughout the procedure, we balance complete removal of the cancer with careful closure techniques that minimize scarring and protect surrounding structures. You will receive clear wound-care instructions and personalized follow-up to support healthy healing and ongoing skin monitoring.
