Mohs Micrographic Surgery on the Nose

Mohs Micrographic Surgery on the Nose

Mohs micrographic surgery is a procedure that allows surgeons to remove skin cancer at a microscopic level from any area on the body. Incredibly thin layers of skin are removed by the surgeon, one at a time, until all of the skin cancer is completely removed. This leads to a very high cure rate for patients undergoing Mohs surgery, allows for a rapid healing process, and produces the least amount of scarring.
