Healthy Skin Month
Healthy Skin Month is the best time to start the conversation about your skin needs with your doctor. Often, life gets in the way, and we put off taking care of our skin for too long. Yet, this November, it may be time to think about the simple and effective solutions that are available to you.
Why Caring for Your Skin Is Essential
Whether it’s a lump, bump or a mole, recognizing that something is not normal with your skin is important. Treatment options are available and can provide you with peace of mind. For those with an area of their skin that’s worrisome, such as a cyst or an area of skin damage, removal of that area could help your doctors to determine the best treatment for any underlying condition. It also allows you to have peace of mind.
How We Can Help You with Your Skin
The physicians of Premier Surgical Surgery Center in Knoxville, work closely with patients to provide a range of procedures that could be an important step in keeping you and your skin healthy. That includes:
• Skin biopsy: We can remove an area of the skin that may be changing in color or otherwise concerning to doctors. Biopsies allow researchers to determine if there’s a concern for conditions like cancer.
• Mole excision: Through a mole excision or biopsy, it is possible to remove the area and determine, if necessary, if there are any additional concerns related to the skin condition.
• Pilonidal cyst removal: This type of abnormal skin growth occurs at the tailbone and can worsen over time, creating pain and a risk of infection. Our physicians can simply remove pilonidal cysts.
If you have other skin conditions that may require removal or surgical procedures, reach out to us to find out how we can help you. Taking care of your skin is worth it.
