Like any medical procedure, skin cancer treatment may have potential side effects. These can include:
Scarring: Depending on the extent of the procedure, scarring may occur. However, our skilled surgeons strive to minimize scarring and optimize cosmetic outcomes.
Infection: There is a small risk of infection after surgery, but proper wound care and follow-up with your healthcare provider can help mitigate this risk.
Changes in sensation: Some patients may experience temporary or permanent changes in sensation near the surgical site. This could include numbness, tingling, or hypersensitivity.
