About Mohs surgery
Mohs surgery is a procedure used to treat skin cancer. This surgery involves cutting away thin layers of skin. Each thin layer is looked at closely for signs of cancer. The process keeps going until there are no signs of cancer. The goal of Mohs surgery is to remove all of the skin cancer without hurting the healthy skin around it. Mohs surgery allows the surgeon to be sure that all the cancer is gone. This makes it more likely that the cancer is cured. It reduces the need for other treatments or more surgery. Mohs surgery is also called Mohs micrographic surgery.
Risks Mohs Surgery
Problems that can happen during and after Mohs surgery include: Bleeding Pain or tenderness around the places where surgery was done Infection
- Bleeding
- Tenderness or pain in the areas where surgery was performed
- Infection
- Other issues that might arise are less prevalent. They might include:

Why it's Done
- Skin cancer is treated by Mohs surgery. Common kinds of skin cancer include basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Melanoma and other less frequent skin cancers are also included.
- Mohs surgery is most effective for skin malignancies that are:
- Have a high risk of returning or have returned after earlier therapy
- Are in locations where it is important to preserve as much healthy tissue as possible. This encompasses the eye, ear, nose, mouth, hands, feet, and genital regions.
- Have difficult-to-define edges.
- Are enormous or expand rapidly
Micrographic surgery using Mohs
- It is believed that there is a significant danger of cancer spreading or returning since the disease is located in a region where it is critical to remove as little skin as possible, such as the nose or near the eyes.
- MMS treatment is the surgical removal of the tumor and a small portion of the surrounding skin.
- The edges are immediately examined under a microscope to ensure that all of the tumours have been removed.
- If not, further surgery is performed, generally on the same day. This decreases scarring and minimises the loss of good tissue while ensuring that the tumour is thoroughly eradicated.
