What is Skin Cancer Surgery Repair?

Skin Cancer Surgery Repair refers to a range of surgical procedures used to remove skin cancer and repair the defects left after excision. The type of repair varies based on the size, location, and depth of the cancer, and takes into consideration the patient’s overall health and cosmetic outcome.

The Procedure

Typically, Skin Cancer Surgery Repair is performed under local anesthesia and IV sedation on an outpatient basis. After the skin cancer is excised, the area might be repaired with stitches, a skin graft or rotational flap. The procedure aims to preserve health, functionality, and aesthetics of the treated area.

Benefits

The primary benefit of Skin Cancer Surgery Repair is the complete removal of the cancer, reducing the risk of it spreading or recurring. It also restores the aesthetics of the treated area, minimizing the impact of surgery on the patient’s appearance.

Alternatives

Depending on the type, location, and stage of skin cancer, an alternative may be radiation therapy. However, surgical removal is typically the most effective and preferred method for most types of skin cancer.

We urge patients to discuss any concerns with their surgeon, to ensure peace of mind prior to proceeding with surgery.
