Expert Skin Cancer & Mohs Surgery In Worcester
1
Skin Cancer Surgery
Basal Cell Carcinoma is almost always curable if treated in a timely fashion. Surgical removal is usually recommended. If the BCC is large, recurrent after previous treatment or situated in a functionally or cosmetically sensitive area such as the eyelids, Mohs Micrographic surgery may be indicated.
​
Other treatment modalities include radiotherapy, cryotherapy and photodynamic therapy and chemotherapy creams but these are not usually recommended around the eye because of potential damage to the eye and/or eyelid structures.​

Mohs Surgery
Mohs Micrographic Surgery is a highly specialised technique used to treat certain types of skin cancer, particularly when located in delicate or high-risk areas such as the eyelids, nose or lips. It offers the highest cure rates for basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible.
Following removal of the cancer, reconstruction is carried out for both function and appearance – especially important around the eyes - to achieve the best possible outcome for each patient.

Excision & Reconstruction
Excisional skin cancer surgery is typically the primary treatment for basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), especially when lesions are suspicious, growing or located on the face.
Excisional biopsy and reconstruction is usually performed to remove a tumour and close the wound afterwards. This may involve rotating tissue from close by to close the gap (flap) or removing a piece of skin from somewhere else and stitching it into the wound (graft). It is usually performed under local anaesthetic.
Ultra professional, but so welcoming, I was immediately at my ease. I'm so very glad I overcame my reluctance to have the surgical procedure because the result has been so good, I wish I hadn't waited so long. I highly recommend this practice - Jacqueline
Julia provided exceptional care and warmth to treating and dealing with people that inspires confidence. I would recommend here to anyone in a heartbeat. Aside from her obvious medical skills she treats the whole person and has made a difficult time for me far more bearable - Andrea
Julia and her team were welcoming, reassuring and calming and I felt totally at ease from start to finish. Thank you for everything you have done for me and for the caring and reassuring manner in which you and your team have conducted themselves - David
