Many treatments are available, including laser resurfacing, chemical peels, BOTOX®, and other cosmetic injectables. The best way to determine the appropriate treatment is through an in-office consultation.

The cancer is removed microscopically with no unnecessary removal of healthy, normal tissue. In other words, surgery is minimized and results in the smallest defect possible. Cure rates are unprecedented; 95% for recurrent basal cell carcinoma and 99% for primary basal cell carcinoma. The cancer is precisely removed, and scarring is minimized.
Treatment options include chemical peels, laser resurfacing, laser blood vessel removal, and various topical medications such as glycolic acid and retinol products.
