	Skin cancer symptoms, signs, prevention, and treatment and information on the types of skin cancer on MedicineNet.com
		Mohs micrographic surgery is preferred for large basal cell carcinomas, those that recur after previous treatment, or lesions affecting parts of the body where experience shows that recurrence is common after treatment by other methods.
		Mohs micrographic surgery: Named for its pioneer, Dr. Frederic Mohs, this technique of removing skin cancer is better termed, "microscopically controlled excision." The surgeon meticulously removes a small piece of the tumor and examines it under the microscope during surgery.
		Basal cell carcinoma is the most common form of skin cancer and accounts for more than 90 percent of all skin cancer in the U.S. These cancers almost never spread (metastasize) to other parts of the body.

	Skin Cancer Information - LASER
		The author believes that the current use of laser to cut out tumors or perform Mohs Surgery is of little added value and is likely to destroy more tissue, scar more and seal blood vessels less than traditional scalpel surgery.
		This use of laser surgery is rare in skin-cancer surgery and is currently usually involved with photodynamic therapy (PDT).
		Second, the carbon-dioxide laser may be used in a concentrated pinpoint beam, almost as sharp as a scalpel.

	Skin cancer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Skin cancers which are aggressive, recurrent, or located upon 'high risk sites' of the body (central face, scalp, ears, genitalia) may require more advanced surgical approaches such as Mohs' micrographic surgery to achieve high cure rates.
		Minor surface skin cancers are readily treatable by simple surgery, but if the cancer is allowed to grow then it will penetrate through the layers of skin and affect the lymphatic system.
		Skin cancer is an increasingly common condition, in part attributed to increased exposure to ultraviolet radiation, against which no level of sun screens offer any decisive protection.
