    removal of cancerous skin lesions to prevent malignant spread

    Skin Cancer Surgery, also known as Skin Cancer Removal Surgery or Skin Cancer Surgical Procedure, involves the excision of cancerous skin lesions to prevent the spread of malignant cells. This can include techniques such as Mohs surgery, which removes the cancer layer by layer while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible, or wide local excision, where a larger margin of surrounding tissue is also removed to ensure complete eradication of the cancer.
