Elk Grove Village / Arlington Heights Skin Cancer Removal – Kagan Plastic Surgery
Also Serving Schaumburg, Palatine and Barrington
Skin Cancer
Problem:
- Cancerous skin growth
- Need to remove moles or keratoses
Solution:
As a skilled Elk Grove Village / Arlington Heights plastic surgeon, Dr. Robert Kagan can diagnose, treat and surgically remove skin cancer (basal cell carcinoma, squamus cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma) and other skin growths (moles and keratoses) in a manner that maintains function and offers the most pleasing final appearance. A skin cancer removal specialist is especially important when the growth is in a highly visible area of your body.
The method used largely depends on the type of skin growth or cancer. Simple excision leaves a light, thin scar. Curettage and desiccation is a procedure that involves scraping the area and using an electric current to control bleeding and kill any remaining cancer cells. This skin cancer removal procedure leaves a slightly larger, white scar. If the cancer is large and has spread, however, major surgery may be required that can involve complex tissue transfer and body part restoration.
Result:
- Successful removal of skin growth with minimal scarring
- Optimize aesthetic and function results while treating skin cancer
