Understanding Melanoma

Melanoma is a type of skin cancer that develops in the cells responsible for producing melanin. It often appears as a mole or dark spot on the skin, and early detection is crucial for successful treatment. Melanoma can be caused by various factors including excessive exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays, genetics, and a weakened immune system.

Comprehensive and Personalized Melanoma Treatment

At Knott's Dermatology, our priority is delivering the highest standard of care to our patients. We offer a comprehensive range of treatment options that are tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual.

Surgical Procedures

Surgery is often the primary treatment for melanoma. Our skilled dermatologists specialize in various surgical techniques, including:

• Wide Local Excision: This procedure involves surgically removing the melanoma along with a small border of healthy tissue to ensure complete removal.
• Mohs Surgery: Mohs surgery is a precise technique that removes cancerous tissue layer by layer, minimizing damage to healthy tissue.
• Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy: For advanced cases, a sentinel lymph node biopsy may be performed to determine if the cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes.

Targeted Therapy

Targeted therapy involves using drugs that specifically target the genetic mutations within melanoma cells. This treatment option has shown promising results in shrinking tumors and preventing the spread of the disease.

Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy harnesses the body's immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells. This innovative approach stimulates the immune system to fight against melanoma, often leading to long-lasting results.

Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy utilizes high-energy beams to destroy cancer cells. It may be recommended as an adjuvant treatment to surgery or as a primary treatment for melanoma in certain situations.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy utilizes powerful drugs to kill cancer cells. While it is not typically the first-line treatment for melanoma, it can be effective in certain cases, especially when melanoma has spread to distant areas of the body.
