- Mohs surgery is done on the spot- in two ways!
Skin cancers regularly occur in moles or spots. Mohs surgery removes the spot layer by layer, to ensure all skin cancer tendrils are removed, and only clean tissue remains.
But what makes MOHS surgery different is how quickly it’s performed- processing of the specimens happen on the spot, in real time! Each time thin layers of skin are removed, the surgeon examines each layer under a microscope to check for cancer cells.
This is a unique benefit of Mohs surgery. With other types of skin cancer treatment, the surgeon often can’t see where the cancer stops. It also means Mohs has two important advantages: firstly, and crucially, a very high cure rate!
And secondly, it allows the patient to keep as much skin as possible, as the surgeon only removes skin with cancer cells. This is especially important on areas with very little tissue behind them- like eyelids, ears, or hands.
Ray Short had a basal cell carcinoma on his nose- watch him undergo his Mohs surgery. You’ll be amazed by how quick, easy, and non-invasive it is!
