What is Mohs surgery?
Mohs micrographic surgery is the most precise and highly effective surgery that most commonly treats basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamos cell carcinoma (SCC). It's also effective for other skin cancer variations, and it has a very high success rate of curing skin cancer. Only dermatologists like Dr. Karan Sra, who are specially trained in Mohs surgery, can perform it. As a Mohs Surgeon, Dr. Karan Sra is proficient in three areas:
- Removing cancerous tissue
- Analyzing the cells in the on-site lab
- Surgery to close and reconstruct the wound so there's minimal scarring
The biggest advantage of Mohs surgery to treat BCC and SCC is the success rate. Mohs surgery’s cure rate is up to 99% for previously untreated skin cancer and up to 94% for an area in which the cancer recurred after previous treatment. In addition, you won’t have to stay at the hospital, since Mohs surgery takes place in the comfort of Bayou City Dermatologist's offices.
