Gallery: Mohs surgery and reconstruction

A collage of surgical patients with their surgical wound and reconstructive surgery

Mohs micrographic surgery offers the highest potential for skin cancer cure. Performed as an out-patient procedure, Mohs micrographic surgery removes the affected area entirely while sparing the surrounding healthy skin. Once the complete removal of the cancer has been confirmed, our surgeons perform reconstructive surgery. During the reconstructive process, our surgeons select the reconstructive technique that will allow them to limit the cosmetic affects of the procedure after it has healed. Below, you will find a gallery of photos from Mohs micrographic surgeries and their subsequent reconstructions.

Skin Graft

A skin graft can provide an excellent closure option for certain wounds where there is not enough loose skin available for direct side to side closure of the defect, or where closure will impact a "free margin" such as the rim of the nostril.
