Mohs Micrographic Surgery

Mohs micrographic surgery is used to treat skin cancer, especially basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. Mohs surgery aims to remove all the cancerous tissue and as little of the healthy tissue as possible. It is especially useful when the shape and depth of the tumour is not clear.

Varicose Veins

A varicose vein is a swollen, twisted vein, usually near the skin surface in the leg. They can be unsightly and cause tired, heavy or painful limbs. In severe cases, the veins can rupture, or open sores (varicose ulcers) can form on the skin. Often, the varicose veins are removed to let blood flow through the remaining healthy veins. This can be done by surgery (vein stripping) or by a non-invasive procedure called sclerotherapy.
