Why Choose Mohs for Melanoma?
- Highest Cure Rate: Mohs surgery offers the highest success rate for many skin cancers—up to 99%—even in cases where previous treatments have failed.
- Tissue Conservation: Particularly important for melanomas on the face, hands, or other sensitive areas, Mohs surgery spares healthy skin, offering better cosmetic outcomes.
- Immediate Results: With pathology done on-site during the surgery, you leave knowing your margins are clear.
- Targeted and Comprehensive: This technique ensures no microscopic cancer cells are left behind, reducing the risk of recurrence.
Is Mohs Surgery Right for Your Melanoma?
Mohs for melanoma is typically recommended for:
- Melanoma in situ (confined to the top layer of skin)
- Early-stage invasive melanomas
- Melanomas on areas where preserving skin is vital (e.g., face, ears, hands, feet)
- Recurrent melanomas
Your provider at MacInnis Dermatology will assess your case and determine whether this treatment is appropriate based on the melanoma’s type, location, and depth.
