At Bangkok Hospital Phuket, we proudly offer Mohs micrographic surgery—a precise, highly effective method for treating skin cancer. This advanced technique is performed by our fellowship-trained dermatologic surgeon and provides the highest cure rates while preserving healthy tissue and achieving superior cosmetic outcomes.
Why Choose Mohs Surgery at Bangkok Hospital Phuket?
We are among the few medical centers in Thailand offering Mohs surgery in accordance with internationally recognized standards. Our approach combines medical precision with aesthetic sensitivity through a multidisciplinary team that includes:
- Mohs Surgeon: Acts as a dual roles, serving as both the cancer removal surgeon and the pathologist. The Mohs surgeon removes the cancer layer by layer, precisely maps the surgical tissue, examines the margins microscopically in real time, and reconstructs the surgical wound once complete cancer clearance is achieved.
- Dermatologic Surgeon: A dermatologist specializing in the surgical removal of skin lesions, tumors, and skin cancers, as well as laser and advanced cutaneous procedures. In skin cancer management, they work closely with dermatopathologists for tissue margin analysis.
- Dermatopathologist: A board-certified pathologist or dermatologist with subspecialty training in the microscopic diagnosis of skin diseases and skin cancer. They play a critical role in evaluating and confirming clear tissue margins during or after surgery.
- Plastic Surgeon: Collaborates with the Mohs surgeon in selected cases requiring complex reconstruction, particularly when specialized repair is needed in functionally or aesthetically sensitive areas such as the eyelids, nose, lips, and ears.
Our Key Advantages:
1. Accurate, Immediate Pathology Confirmation:
Each tissue layer removed during surgery is examined microscopically. To ensure 100% diagnostic confidence, our dermatopathologist reviews the results in real time.
2. Expert Cancer Removal and Reconstruction:
Mohs surgery is performed exclusively by our dermatologic surgeon, ensuring precise cancer removal with immediate margin assessment. When reconstruction is needed—especially in delicate areas—we collaborate with plastic surgeons to achieve the best cosmetic results.
3. Highest Cure Rates:
Mohs surgery offers the most effective treatment for common skin cancers like basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
4. Tissue-Sparing Technique:
By removing only cancerous tissue, Mohs surgery preserves healthy skin, reducing scarring and promoting better healing.
5. Comprehensive Care Options:
We provide both outpatient and inpatient services, tailored to each patient’s needs.
