Skin Cancer Management at The Pinewoods Clinic

At The Pinewoods Clinic, our dedicated team of surgeons and dermatologists provide expert, compassionate care in the diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing management of skin cancer. We understand how worrying skin changes can be, and our goal is to offer prompt, professional assessment and treatment within a calm and supportive environment.

Comprehensive Skin Cancer Care

Our specialists have extensive experience in managing all types of skin cancer, including:

• Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) – the most common and slow-growing form.
• Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) – which may spread if left untreated.
• Melanoma – the most serious type of skin cancer, requiring early detection for the best outcomes.

We provide a complete pathway of care, from initial consultation and mole assessment through to biopsy, diagnosis, surgical removal, and follow-up.

Early Detection and Diagnosis

Early diagnosis of skin cancer significantly improves treatment success. Our dermatology team offers:

• Full skin checks and mole mapping to detect suspicious lesions.
• Digital dermoscopy for accurate visual assessment.
• Skin biopsies performed on-site for precise diagnosis.

We encourage regular skin checks, particularly for patients with a history of sun exposure, fair skin, numerous moles, or a family history of skin cancer.

Treatment Options

Depending on the type and stage of skin cancer, our expert team may recommend:

• Surgical excision – precise removal of cancerous tissue with excellent cosmetic results.
• Mohs micrographic surgery – a specialised technique for complete cancer clearance while preserving healthy tissue (available for suitable cases).
• Cryotherapy, curettage, or topical treatments – for superficial or early lesions.
• CO2 Laser treatment
• Reconstructive surgery – performed by skilled surgeons to restore natural appearance following removal.

All treatments are tailored to your diagnosis, medical history, and personal needs.

Aftercare and Follow-Up

Following treatment, we provide detailed aftercare guidance and regular follow-up appointments to monitor healing and prevent recurrence. Our team also offers skin protection advice to help reduce the risk of future skin cancers — including information about sun safety, SPF use, and self-examination techniques.
