What Is Surgery of Skin Cancers?

Expert Skin Cancer Management by Dermatologists
Dermatologists are the most highly trained specialists in the diagnosis and treatment of skin cancers, including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. With expertise in both surgical and non-surgical approaches, they offer tailored, effective care focused on early detection, complete treatment, and optimal cosmetic outcomes.

Surgical Treatment in Purpose-Built Facilities
Skin cancer surgery involves the removal of cancerous lesions along with a margin of healthy tissue to ensure complete clearance. These procedures are performed under local anaesthesia in our purpose-built treatment rooms, designed for patient safety and comfort. Surgical excision is a reliable treatment option that offers high cure rates and minimal downtime.

Non-Surgical Options for Suitable Cases
For select cases, Dermatologists can properly assess patients for non-surgical treatments such as photodynamic therapy (PDT) and carbon dioxide laser resurfacing. These approaches are ideal for superficial skin cancers or widespread sun damage, effectively targeting abnormal cells while preserving healthy skin. They are minimally invasive, require little recovery time, and achieve excellent cosmetic results.
