General Plastic Surgery
Skin CancerLiving in Florida, skin cancer is a real danger to all of us. If you have a known skin cancer or just a spot you would like evaluated, it is imperative that you seek out properly trained professionals. If you have been told to “watch” an area for several years, it may be better to simply have it removed and avoid any associated risks or stress. We offer the entire range of services for the evaluation and treatment of skin lesions. In addition to skin examinations, biopsies, and surgical excision, we offer advanced reconstructive techniques that only plastic surgeons can provide. Whether it’s the removal of a mole or melanoma, superior training in plastic surgery can be the difference between a well-hidden incision line and a widened, obvious scar. Scar RevisionScars are a fact of life and we will all develop several over the course of our lives. Some of us are fortunate and have small scars in easy to hide locations, while others are not so fortunate. There is no such thing as scar-less surgery and they rarely disappear, however, there are numerous non-operative treatments available to reduce the incidence and degree of scarring from trauma or surgery. If non-operative techniques have failed to give the optimal result, a scar revision procedure is the best option to remove the unsightly scar and replace it with a well designed incision to optimally camouflage its position. Birth Marks, Hemangiomas, or HyperpigmentationCongential conditions such as birthmarks, hemangiomas or areas of hyperpigmentation can also frequently be treated with non-operative means. In certain cases, laser therapy may even be employed to reduce the appearance of these skin lesions. Other specific cases may improve only with surgical excision, therefore it is important to obtain the advice of a trained plastic surgeon when considering treatment options.
