Dermatologic Surgery is a specialized discipline within the medical specialty of Dermatology. Physicians trained in dermatology are trained in cutaneous surgery, including how to manage skin cancers, how to use laser and other modalities for skin diseases, and cosmetic enhancement. Dermatologic surgeons obtain extra training through fellowships in specialized surgery techniques for treating skin cancers, such as Mohs Surgery, reconstructive surgery and cosmetic procedures such as hair transplantation, tattoo removal, and cosmetic laser procedures.
At the UW Dermatologic Surgery we offer our patients the advantage of surgeons and staff who are are the cutting edge of clinical and scientific research into skin treatment and skin surgery techniques.
