The goals of skin cancer treatment are to ensure oncologic cure, to obtain an adequate post-treatment functional outcome and to preserve the patient's cosmetics as best as possible; the therapeutic options include conventional surgical resection, Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS), radiotherapy, cryosurgery, curettage, electrodesiccation and topical or intralesional drug therapy.
MMS has better efficacy in eradicating skin cancer, ensuring the most precise removal of tumors, with the least amount of damage to surrounding tissues.
Regarding the closure of defects after excision, there are multiple options depending on the technique used and on each lesion. This is of utmost importance since the care of the esthetic result improves facial attractiveness and subsequently the patient's self-image satisfaction.
