The goal of dermatologic reconstructive surgery is to improve the function and appearance of the skin. A defect can be allowed to heal on its own or repaired with reconstructive surgery. The option that is right for you depends on the shape, size, and location of the wound. As a fellowship-trained Mohs surgeon, Dr. Carranza was trained extensively to repair both small and large defects on the face and other parts of the body. At the time of your surgery, Dr. Carranza will discuss all of your options and, if necessary, repair the defect with meticulous care and attention.
