Mohs surgery is a specialized technique used to treat certain types of skin cancer, particularly on sensitive or high-risk areas like the face, ears, hands, or scalp. It allows for complete cancer removal while preserving as much healthy skin as possible. At Element Dermatology, this procedure is performed with meticulous care by board-certified professionals who prioritize both health and aesthetics.

Mohs surgery is typically recommended for basal and squamous cell carcinomas that are high-risk, aggressive, or located in cosmetically sensitive areas. The procedure is done in stages—removing thin layers of tissue and examining them under a microscope until no cancer cells remain. This technique offers the highest cure rate while minimizing scarring and unnecessary tissue loss. Our team ensures your experience is as comfortable and informative as possible, with most procedures completed in a single visit. We also provide post-operative care and reconstruction planning if needed, to ensure excellent functional and cosmetic outcomes.
