Lesions can also occur in the skin of the face and head. Of particular importance are cancers of the skin. These cancers range from the fairly localized basal cell carcinoma to the more aggressive squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma. Early diagnosis and treatment is of paramount importance for these lesions. Please ask us if you have any concerns about a skin lesion.
Removal of Moles and Nevi
Moles, blemishes and nevi on the face may represent either innocuous or pathological conditions. They must be periodically examined by an experienced professional.
Dr Letelier will examine your skin and record any suspicious lesions. He will also teach you self-inspection, prevention and the signs of pathological conditions such as:
Irregular borders
Multiple colors
Changing size or shape
Development of new lesions
Skin cancer is a common condition in our area and it should be treated promptly. If the condition calls for biopsy or removal, Dr. Letelier will utilize the latest techniques to allow efficient removal and speedy recovery.
Biopsies:
A biopsy is the removal of tissue so it can be studied by a pathologist under the microscope. For most lesions it is the only way to arrive at a diagnosis, so that the proper treatment plan can be formulated.
