Skin Cancer Detection & Treatment for Early, Effective Care
We provide comprehensive skin cancer screenings and advanced treatment options, focusing on early detection, precise care, and long-term skin health.
Early Detection Saves Lives
Living in Florida means year-round sun exposure, which makes regular skin checks especially important for early detection. Monitoring your skin for new or changing spots can help catch concerns early, when they are easiest to treat. Our team provides thorough evaluations to ensure your skin stays healthy and any abnormalities are carefully assessed.
When to Schedule a Skin Check
New or changing spots, moles that look different from other moles, or any growth that bleeds, itches, or doesn’t heal should be evaluated by a dermatologist promptly.
Comprehensive Skin Cancer Care
Skin cancer detection and treatment is one of the most common reasons patients visit Bracciano Dermatology. We provide comprehensive skin cancer screenings and full-body skin checks to detect possible skin cancers and abnormal moles.
Skin Cancer Screenings
Regular skin cancer screenings are one of the most effective tools for early detection. Our providers perform thorough full-body or targeted skin examinations to identify suspicious lesions and changes that may require further evaluation.
Biopsy & Diagnosis
When a lesion requires further evaluation, we perform skin biopsies to obtain a definitive diagnosis. Results are reviewed carefully and communicated to patients with clear explanations of findings and next steps.
Treatment Options
Depending on the type, location, and stage of skin cancer, we offer a range of treatment options. Our team will discuss the most appropriate approach for your specific situation, taking into account both health and cosmetic outcomes.
Follow-Up and Prevention
After treatment, we provide ongoing monitoring and follow-up care. We also offer guidance on sun protection, self-examination, and other preventive measures to reduce the risk of future skin cancers.
Mohs Micrographic Surgery
Mohs micrographic surgery is a highly precise treatment for many types of skin cancer, designed to remove cancerous tissue while preserving as much healthy skin as possible.
During Mohs surgery, thin layers of tissue are removed and examined under a microscope in real time. This process continues until all cancerous cells have been removed, resulting in the highest cure rates while preserving healthy tissue.

Precise removal of cancerous tissue layer by layer
Maximum preservation of healthy surrounding skin
Immediate pathological examination during the procedure
Particularly effective for cancers in cosmetically sensitive areas
Same-day results–no waiting for lab reports

Mohs surgery is commonly recommended for:

Your provider will determine whether Mohs surgery is appropriate for your specific situation during your consultation.
