Mohs surgery is the most advanced method for removing skin cancer with accuracy, and it is especially valuable for areas where preserving healthy tissue matters.

Mole mapping gives our dermatologists a detailed record of your skin, allowing us to spot even the smallest changes before they become a concern.

Many patients love how mole mapping provides an extra layer of protection, especially if they have a history of sun damage or a higher risk for skin cancer. When combined with your annual full-body skin exam, this careful monitoring helps us make confident, informed decisions about your long-term skin health.
