Skin cancer treatments can vary based on the type of cancer that is present. Squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma are two of the most common types of skin cancer. Melanoma is less common but more dangerous. Dr. Ghasri will work with the patient to identify the most appropriate treatment. Radiation therapy, topic chemotherapy products and photodynamic therapy are all alternatives to surgery that may be appropriate for certain cancers. Surgical options include Mohs micrographic surgery, cryosurgery, electrodessication and curettage and surgical excision.

Routine skin exams are recommended to identify skin cancers at their earliest stages. Other treatments are available for non-cancerous skin conditions, including mole removal, wart removal, eczema, acne, infections, rashes, rosacea and hair loss. Proper treatment can restore skin health and a more youthful, attractive appearance. Non-medical treatments are available for patients who are more interested in their cosmetic options. These treatments can include injectables such as Botox, Dysport, Restylane, Juvederm and Radiesse. Topical treatments include chemical peels, spa facials and laser treatments. Procedures can be combined for maximum renewal and rejuvenation.
