Surgical Treatment
The main aim of surgical treatment for skin cancer is to remove the lesion with appropriate clinical margin. This clinical margin will depend on the type of skin cancer, site and any additional risk feature identified in the biopsy.
The type of surgery will depend on the type of skin cancer, size and its location on the body. This could include:
- Simple Excision – usually in shape of ellipse
- Complex Excision – requiring flaps, graft and other complex surgical procedures
Doctors at our clinic are well experienced in simple and complex procedures including flaps and grafts to provide the best possible outcome for our patients.
