When it comes to treating certain types of skin cancer, Mohs micrographic surgery is a technique often recommended by surgeons and dermatologists as the “gold standard” and the most highly effective and precise treatment option, particularly for skin cancers such as basal cell carcinoma (BCC or rodent ulcers) or squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), as well as other rarer tumour types.
