More About This Service
Most adults benefit from a yearly full-body skin exam—more often if you have a history of skin cancer, many moles, or significant sun exposure.
If acne is persistent, painful, or leaving scars despite over-the-counter products, a dermatologist can prescribe more effective treatments tailored to your skin.
Watch for the ABCDEs: Asymmetry, irregular Borders, uneven Color, a Diameter larger than a pencil eraser, and any mole that’s Evolving. Have new or changing moles checked promptly.
Mohs surgery removes skin cancer layer by layer, examining each under a microscope until no cancer remains. It offers the highest cure rate for many skin cancers while sparing healthy tissue—ideal for the face and other visible areas.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so the treated area is numb. Most patients experience only minor discomfort afterward.
Because each tissue layer is examined before the next is removed, Mohs surgery can take several hours, including wait time for lab analysis. Most cases are completed in a single day.
