The specialists at our Florida skin cancer centers understand that finding out you have skin cancer is a scary experience in itself. That’s why we want to ensure your skin cancer dermatology treatment is as accurate and as pain-free as possible. Mohs surgery is an advanced treatment for skin cancer available at our Florida dermatology centers. Performed by our board-certified dermatologist, the procedure involves carefully removing thin layers of skin and analyzing them in real time until the cancer is fully eliminated. These very small samples are examined under a microscope to provide our patients with the most curative treatment possible. Each of our dermatologists in Florida who perform Mohs surgery has completed years of additional training to precisely remove skin cancer with a 99% effective rate, all without damaging the skin around the treatment area.
The cost of your Mohs dermatology surgery at Florida’s Suncoast Skin Solutions is going to vary depending on the extent of treatment needed to achieve your desired results. To find out a more accurate cost for your Mohs surgery, we encourage you to come in for a private consultation with one of our expert staff members.
There are many benefits to receiving Mohs surgery at Florida’s Suncoast Skin Solutions, including:
- 99 percent curative rate of skin cancer with just one treatment
- Protects and preserves skin surrounding the treatment area

Your Mohs surgery will be performed at your local Suncoast Skin Solutions center by one of our expert board-certified dermatologists. Before your Mohs surgery begins, a local anesthetic will be administered to the treatment area. This is to ensure you remain as comfortable as possible throughout your treatment. Once numb, your Mohs surgeon will begin gently removing small samples of skin from your treatment area. Each layer of skin will be carefully examined underneath a microscope until your Mohs surgeon is sure no cancer cells are present any longer.
Your Mohs surgery should result in up to a 99 percent curative rate after just one treatment. Following your Mohs surgery, you will be given a detailed set of post-operative care instructions for your treatment area. It’s important you follow these steps very carefully to ensure you have minimal scarring following treatment. If you have any questions or concerns about your treatment area following your Mohs surgery, we encourage you to call your local Suncoast skin cancer center at your earliest convenience.
