Precision Treatment for Basal & Squamous Cell Skin Cancers

Mohs surgery is an advanced treatment for skin cancer that removes cancerous tissue layer by layer while preserving healthy skin. The procedure offers the highest cure rates for basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas and is especially effective in delicate areas such as the face and hands. Patients benefit from same-day results, precise cancer removal, and optimal cosmetic outcomes.

Up to 99% effective for many non-melanoma skin cancers, ensuring complete removal of cancer cells.

Tissue Preservation

Removes only diseased tissue, leaving as much healthy skin intact as possible for better cosmetic results.

Same-Day Results

Minimally Invasive

Done with local anesthesia in an outpatient setting, allowing patients to remain comfortable and alert.

Optimal Cosmetic Outcomes

Mohs micrographic surgery is a highly advanced procedure for treating certain types of skin cancer, most often basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.

The technique involves removing very thin layers of tissue one at a time and examining each layer under a microscope. This process is repeated until no cancer cells remain to ensure complete removal of the cancer while preserving as much healthy skin as possible. The process is performed in a single day.

Mohs surgery is recognized for its exceptional cure rates, often exceeding 99% for many non-melanoma skin cancers.
