What Is Mohs Surgery?

Mohs surgery is a procedure where we remove thin layers of skin that contain cancer cells. This surgery aims to remove as much of the cancer as possible, leaving only the healthy skin. 

This surgical treatment for basal cell or squamous cell carcinomas at our clinic in Gretna allows us to verify that we have removed all of the cancer cells, decreasing the need for any additional procedures and allowing you to heal more effectively. 

The procedure is done in stages but all in one visit, and it includes immediate lab work on-site. It is also the treatment that has the highest cure rate in cancers that have recurred after other treatments or those that have not received any treatment at all. 

We perform Mohs surgery in Gretna, NE, to help treat skin cancers that:

  • Have hard-to-define borders
  • Are large
  • Are aggressive 
  • Are in areas where preserving tissue is crucial
  • Have a high risk of recurrence

Mohs surgery is an outpatient procedure we perform with local anesthesia at our clinic. This helps with the recovery process and ensures you don’t face the risks that come with general anesthesia.
