Skin Cancer
At Rendon Center for Dermatology and Aesthetic Medicine, your health is always our top priority. Skin cancer is treated with the utmost care, compassion, and, of course, expert skill. We believe that skin cancer detection and treatment are among the most important services we provide.
What Is Skin Cancer Screening?
When you have a full-body check-up, a member of our dermatology team will perform an evaluation. Drawing from our extensive training and years of experience, we can quickly identify those lesions that are cause for concern. Any potentially cancerous lesion will be tested and evaluated by one of our dermatopathology specialists.
Skin Cancer Treatment
If the lesion is malignant, we provide a customized treatment plan, depending on the type of cancer, as well as its size, shape, and location. We will evaluate your current health and review your medical history to ensure that you receive safe and effective treatment.

Skin Lesion Removal
Many cancerous lesions can be removed in a simple procedure using a scalpel. Because skin cancer typically extends beyond the visible portion, additional tissue is removed. Following surgery, the removed tissue will be sent to our specially trained pathologist for evaluation. If cancerous cells are discovered in the borders, a second procedure will be needed. If the borders are clear, the process is complete.
