To achieve the finest aesthetic and functional outcome after skin cancer removal.

 

Moh’s reconstruction is a site specific surgery to reconstruct the area using local flaps and/or grafts. Flaps are plastic surgical techniques where local skin is lifted and rotated into the defect. Grafts are where distant skin is removed and then secured into the defect when a flap closure is not the appropriate choice for certain defects. Special care is taken to minimize the appearance of scars with attention to the natural skin tension lines and careful plastic surgical closure. In either case, the majority of these procedures can be performed in the office under local anesthesia, typically in under an hour.

 

An extensive consultation and examination will determine the choice of procedures and other adjunctive techniques that will enhance the cosmetic results and the patient’s goals. Ideally old photographs are utilized to see the youthful contours of the patient.

Patients are given detailed instructions on postoperative care for their incisions which typically involves ointments placed on the wounds and the use of iced compresses to reduce swelling and expedite the healing process.
