General Practitioners

Warts
Cryotherapy
Applying liquid nitrogen with a spray device kills the abnormal cells. The procedure may have to be repeated more than once.

X-Rays
Chemotherapy
NCCN guidelines determine the treatment needed for your melanoma. In many cases, melanomas can be excised and repaired in our office with no further treatment. In some cases, lymph nodes need to be checked or removed, further imaging may be needed, and/or chemotherapy may be needed. Your physician will determine your treatment based on the specific details of your melanoma.
Radiation Therapy

Wound Care
Detailed verbal and written wound care instructions will be provided upon discharge from our office. You will likely need bandaging supplies and plain petrolatum ointment/Vaseline for wound care. Please do not use topical antibiotics. We also often recommend a silicone scar gel to minimize scarring. You will likely use this 2 months after surgery.
Neurosurgery
Paige received her degree from the physician assistant program at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center in Oklahoma City. Prior to joining Dr. Rhinehart, Paige spent several years with a neurosurgery practice, but says she always felt she would return to her true calling of dermatology.
Mohs Surgery
Some skin cancers can be deceptively large – far more extensive under the skin than they appear to be from the surface. These cancers may have “roots” in the skin, or along blood vessels, nerves, or cartilage. Skin cancers that have recurred following previous treatment may send out extensions deep under the scar tissue that has formed at the site. Mohs surgery is specifically designed to remove these cancers by tracking and removing these cancerous “roots.”

Plastic Surgeons

Plastic Surgery
After the skin cancer has been completely removed, a decision is made on the best repair option for your wound. These methods include letting the wound heal by itself, closing the wound in a side-to-side fashion with stitches, or closing the wound with a skin flap or graft. All wound repairs are performed by Dr. Rhinehart or Dr. Mollet immediately after cancer removal. Dr. Rhinehart and Dr. Mollet are formally trained in reconstructive and plastic surgery techniques. They will only refer you for reconstruction when general anesthesia is needed or if you specifically request a referral to a plastic surgeon.

Skin Cancer
Squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) account for about 2 out of 10 skin cancers. It is very common in the United States where approximately 700,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. Squamous cell carcinomas tend to develop on skin that has been exposed to the sun for years, so it is frequently found on exposed areas, such as the head, neck, arms and back of hands. Women, in particular, are also at risk for finding SCC on their lower legs. When allowed to grow, this skin cancer can grow deep, destroying tissue and even bone. In some cases, SCC spreads to the lymph nodes and other parts of the body. With early diagnosis and treatment, SCC is highly curable. Once you have been diagnosed with SCC, your risk for another SCC is elevated. It is important to regularly examine your own skin for signs of skin cancer and to see your dermatologist at least yearly.
Dermatology
The American Academy of Dermatology is is the largest, most influential, and most representative of all dermatologic associations. The AAD is committed to advancing the diagnosis and medical, surgical, and cosmetic treatment of the skin, hair, and nails; advocating high standards in clinical practice, education, and research in dermatology; and supporting and enhancing patient care for a lifetime of healthier skin, hair, and nails.
Lesions
Actinic keratosis (AK) is a crusty, scaly growth caused by damage from exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light. It is considered a pre-cancer because it can develop into squamous cell carcinoma if left untreated. AKs are the most common type of precancerous lesions and appear on skin that has been frequently exposed to the sun, such as the face, scalp, ears, neck, shoulders, forearms, hands, and legs. They are often elevated, rough in texture, and resemble warts. Most become red, but can vary in color.
