Beaumont Dermatologist Offers Mohs Micrographic Surgery

    BEAUMONT, TX, August 24, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Peter Morrell, skin doctor in Beaumont, has received training to successfully perform Mohs Micrographic surgery to treat skin cancer. Mohs Micrographic Surgery offers the highest cure rate among treatments for skin cancer.

"I'm glad to be able to offer Mohs Micrographic Surgery at our practice. I believe it is the most effective way to treat skin cancer and offers many advantages over other treatment methods. I look forward to continuing to treat my patients with this technique," said Dr. Morrell, dermatologist in Beaumont.

Mohs surgery involves Dr. Morrell removing skin cancer layer by layer and examining the tissue under a microscope. Once only healthy tissue is present around the area of the tumor, the procedure will be complete and the patient will be cancer-free.

Mohs surgery offers a few distinct advantages over other types of skin cancer treatment. The surgery minimizes the amount of healthy tissue that is lost and gives you the best possible cosmetic option. In most cases, the site of the cancer can be repaired on the same day.
