Mohs Surgery
Mohs Surgery is named after Dr. Frederic Mohs, a surgeon who developed the technique in the late 1930s. It is a highly effective type of surgery that can remove skin cancers by excising thin strips of tissue one at a time. After each specimen is removed, it is examined by the Mohs surgeon under a microscope to determine whether cancer remains in the skin, and to precisely map any remaining cancer. If any cancer is left behind, the Mohs surgeon knows exactly where the additional tissue needs to be removed. Because of the precise microscopic mapping technique, only the diseased tissue is removed, thus sparing as much of the normal skin as possible. Mohs surgery offers cure rates of up to 99% for newly diagnosed basal cell carcinomas and up to 98% for newly diagnosed squamous cell carcinomas. Mohs surgery is highly effective when treating skin cancers that have come back (recurred) after previous treatments. Because all of the edges and undersurface of the removed skin are checked microscopically, Mohs surgery can detect and remove "roots" and "fingers" of tumor growth that are not visible to the naked eye, and may not be successfully treated with other therapies. These "roots" are very common in skin cancers occurring on the face, where the tumor that is visible may be merely the "tip of the iceberg." Mohs surgery is particularly useful in areas where it is important to preserve healthy skin to ensure optimal function and cosmetic appearance after surgery, such as the eyelids, nose, ears, lips, and other areas on the head and neck, where skin cancers are more likely to come back if treated by other methods. Mohs surgery is performed in the doctor's office, and the cancer is usually removed and the wound repaired in a single day without sedation or general anesthesia.

Ingredients, such as Vitamins A, C and E have been included with the intention to reduce free radicals, which are caused by modern day living, i.e., stress, pollution, smoking, and, of course sunlight. Special attention has been given to rejuvenating and nourishing the skin, which is why we included Co-enzyme Q10 and Green Tea Extract, so vital in reducing skin damage and replenishing moisture to the skin.
