Treating Skin Cancer Removing All of the Cancer - and Only the Cancer

It is no exaggeration to say that skin cancer is rapidly approaching epidemic proportions. With half of all new cancers being diagnosed as skin cancers¹, we have to take notice. Current statistics indicate that one in five Americans are likely to get skin cancer of some type during their lifetimes.² Dr. Rosio's analysis of the Sacramento region shows a higher than expected percentage based on residents' skin type, and total sun-years per capita.

In recent years, we've seen major media cover skin cancer prevention and detection, which is a very important topic. However, for decades "tan was beautiful." As such, for many, the damage has already been done. Now you need information about the solutions available for those who have been diagnosed with skin cancer (or for whom treatment has failed). What can/should you do next?

A diagnosis of skin cancer is cause for concern -- if left untreated, the disease can continue to progress. However, it needn't be cause for panic. Skin cancer is not necessarily life threatening nor does its therapy have to be disfiguring. Advanced treatment is available.

You may be interested in learning about Mohs micrographic surgery, a skin cancer treatment that not only provides the highest cure rate (up to 99 percent), but also results in the least cosmetic impact (minimal scarring, disfigurement) of all surgical skin cancer treatments. It is the treatment of choice for cancers that are in an area of the body where it is important to preserve healthy tissue for the maximum functional and cosmetic result (i.e., eyelids, nose, ears, lips).

The Mohs micrographic procedure combines state-of-the-art surgery with instant pathological analysis of removed tissue to trace and ensure full elimination of skin cancer down to its "roots." It is unique because it removes all of the cancer - and only the cancer.
