Elipse Surgical Removal
Jawline
This gentleman presented with a large, rapidly growing, tender pink lump in his beard. Fortunately, he sought medical attention right away. Poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) has a relatively high risk of metastasizing (spreading to other parts of the body) compared to most other types of skin cancers we encounter. This lesion was treated using a large simple ellipse excision. Due to the nature of poorly differentiated SCC, a substantial "margin of safety" was necessary, which is why the excision was so extensive.
Cheek
Below is a lesion designated for surgical removal using. Due to its large size this lesion could have easily became a flap or graft procedure. Luckily due to sufficient skin laxity we were able to offer a standard Ellipse procedure.
Surgical outlines can be seen in picture one.
Due to the size of the lesion and to ensure complete removal quite a large surgical incision was required.
The following two images show the outcomes directly after surgery and post suture removal.
The final image is just two months post procedure, the scarring was minimal, an excellent surgical outcome both aesthetically and the lesion was completely removed with no further intervention required.
