Mohs Surgery on an Invasive Squamous Cell carcinoma on Right Nasal Ala.

Patient underwent Mohs Micrographic Surgery after discovering an Invasive Squamous Cell Carcinoma (skin cancer) on right nasal ala measuring at approximately 0.8 cm x 0.8 cm pre-operatively. The non-melanoma skin cancer was fully and successfully excised. Given the location of the tumor, for the best cosmetic outcome the patient and surgeon agreed to allow the surgical wound to heal on it's own without reconstruction or sutures. The after photographs displayed are 21 and 42 days post-operation, respectively. Patient is pleased with results thus far.
