Skin growths, lesions, and irregularities can change over time, making it challenging to distinguish between benign conditions and those requiring medical attention. Signs of skin cancer or malignancies can often be subtle, underscoring the importance of having a skilled doctor to provide an accurate diagnosis.
With live margin clearance surgery, precise and immediate treatment can be provided to ensure all cancerous tissue is removed while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible. This advanced approach helps to minimize the need for additional surgeries and enhances patient outcomes.

Live Margin Clearance Surgery Process
Live margin clearance surgery is an advanced procedure used to ensure complete removal of skin cancer while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible. This procedure is vital for accurately diagnosing and treating skin cancers, such as melanoma, where it is essential to ensure the tumor has been fully removed with clear margins.
The process begins with the surgeon examining the area under local anesthesia to remove the cancerous tissue. During the surgery, we use real-time imaging and pathology to ensure the margins of the excised tissue are clear of cancer cells. If cancer cells are found at the margins, additional tissue will be removed until a clear margin is achieved.
Live margin clearance is a highly effective method for minimizing the risk of recurrence and ensuring the best possible outcome for the patient. Depending on the size and location of the tumor, the procedure may be completed in one session or may require follow-up visits for further removal and healing.
While most procedures are minimally invasive and performed under local anesthesia, more complex cases may require a general anesthetic and a more extended recovery period. After the surgery, we will monitor the site to ensure healing and discuss any further steps if necessary.
If you are concerned about a mole or lesion, it is essential to act early and schedule an appointment for evaluation. Early detection and treatment can lead to the best possible outcomes, and live margin clearance surgery ensures the most thorough removal with the least amount of tissue damage.
