Moh's reconstruction

Though Moh’s excision of skin cancers is typically performed in the face/neck/scalp/nose/lips and ears, it can be performed throughout the body. Dr. Ha has extensive experience in performing reconstructions of the defects left behind. He works closely with a number of Moh’s dermatologic surgeons to repair defects within 24 to 72 hours, and often times the same day. If you have had a biopsy confirming skin cancer, Dr. Ha offers consultations prior to your Moh’s excision so that all of the options can be reviewed. This can provide you with a framework of expectations and often give you peace of mind. He can also help refer you to the appropriate specialists for your skin cancer if they haven’t been arranged yet.

•    Skin grafts
•    Nasolabial flaps
•    Forehead flaps
