Dedicated Excellence in Dermatologic Surgery
Squamous Cell Carcinoma Surgery in Plano, TX
Understanding Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a common skin cancer that often develops on sun-exposed areas, including the face, ears, neck, and hands. Unlike basal cell carcinoma, SCC can occasionally spread to other parts of the body, making timely surgical treatment critical.
When to Seek Surgical Care
Seek surgical evaluation if you notice:
- A firm, red bump or nodule
- A scaly or crusted patch that grows or bleeds
- A sore that does not heal or keeps returning
Prompt surgery reduces the risk of complications and ensures complete removal.
Surgical Treatment Options
At The Surgical Center at Plano Dermatology, we provide:
- Excisional Surgery – Surgical removal of the tumor with a margin of healthy tissue.
- Mohs Micrographic Surgery – Layer-by-layer removal to ensure all cancer cells are excised while sparing healthy skin, ideal for high-risk or cosmetically sensitive areas.
