Skin Cancer Treatment

Skin Cancer Treatment

Aesthetic dermatologic surgery is a discipline that combines clinical expertise and aesthetic sensitivity, addressing skin conditions such as moles, cysts, keratoses, and other benign lesions with the goal of preserving skin health and improving its appearance. At Image Regenerative Clinic in Milan, every treatment begins with an in-depth dermatological assessment, essential for identifying suspicious lesions and acting promptly when needed. When appropriate, we perform the surgical removal of skin growths in visible areas such as the face, back, or décolleté, with the utmost precision and focus on aesthetic outcomes. This field now plays a key role not only in the removal of moles or skin cysts, but also in cancer prevention and long-term, personalized skin care.

About the Treatment

The Importance of Prevention: The Annual Dermatologist Appointment

Planning an annual appointment with the dermatologist is an essential practice for comprehensive skincare, combining health and beauty. This regular check allows for constant monitoring of skin condition, promptly identifying any suspicious new formations or alterations that could evolve into more serious problems. Targeted and timely intervention is the first step in preventing future complications and maintaining perfect skin health. The annual appointment is not just an essential moment for those who wish to combine prevention and beauty.

Dermatological Cleaning, the Essential Beauty Routine for a Well-Groomed Appearance

Dermatological prevention is now an established approach in beauty routines in the United States, especially among men who are mindful of their image. Regularly removing small imperfections such as skin bumps, milia, or skin tags not only improves skin aesthetics but also helps convey a fresh and refined image, reflecting self-care and attention. Incorporating an annual dermatological cleaning into the beauty routine helps visibly improve skin quality, making it smooth, uniform, and youthful. Dermatological prevention is not just an aesthetic treatment but a targeted strategy to enhance one's image and convey a sense of care and attention to detail, fundamental in both personal and professional life.

Removal of Cutaneous New Formations: Precision and Harmony

Skin new formations, such as moles, cysts, and keratosis, can represent not only an aesthetic problem but also a potential health risk. With the aid of minimally invasive surgical techniques, it is possible to remove these lesions with extreme precision, preserving the integrity of surrounding tissue, ensuring:

  • Minimization of scars, ideal for visible areas like the face and hands.
  • Preservation of natural aesthetics, reducing the visible impact of interventions.
  • Recognizing Warning Signs: The ABCDE Rule

    Early diagnosis represents the most effective weapon against skin tumors. At Image Regenerative Clinic, we educate our patients to recognize suspicious changes using the ABCDE rule: Asymmetry (irregular shaped lesions), Borders (jagged or poorly defined edges), Color (color variations or uneven pigmentation), Diameter (larger than 6mm or rapid growth), Evolution (any change in shape, color, or sensation). A mole presenting even just one of these characteristics requires immediate dermatological evaluation.

    Digital Dermatoscopy: Advanced Diagnostic Precision

    Our clinic uses latest-generation digital dermatoscopy systems that allow microscopic analysis of skin lesions with magnifications up to 50x. This technology enables us to identify structures and patterns invisible to the naked eye, significantly improving diagnostic accuracy. Each lesion is photographed and digitally archived, creating a personalized skin map that allows monitoring even the smallest variations over time. This technological approach drastically reduces the need for unnecessary diagnostic biopsies.

    Regenerative Surgery vs Traditional Surgery

    Integration of regenerative medicine in dermatological surgery represents a revolution in skin lesion treatment. While traditional surgery is limited to lesion removal, our approach with Lipogems technology promotes optimal tissue regeneration. Microfragmented adipose tissue stimulates new collagen formation and improves vascularization, resulting in less visible scars and accelerated healing. This is particularly advantageous for lesions in aesthetically sensitive areas like face, décolleté, and hands.

    Intervention Timing: When Not to Wait

    There are situations where intervention cannot be postponed. Lesions that bleed spontaneously, present ulcerations, grow rapidly, or drastically change appearance require urgent evaluation. In cases of suspected melanomas, every week can make a difference in prognostic terms. Our clinic guarantees urgent dermatological consultations within 24-48 hours for suspicious cases, because we understand that anxiety and uncertainty can be as emotionally devastating as the pathology itself.

    Skin Cancer Risk Factors: Beyond Sun Exposure

    While UV radiation remains the primary risk factor, other elements significantly influence skin cancer development. Genetic predisposition plays a crucial role, particularly in families with BRCA mutations or melanoma history. Immunosuppressive medications, previous radiation therapy, and certain chemical exposures increase risk substantially. Age-related cellular changes make surveillance increasingly important after 50. Understanding your personal risk profile allows for tailored prevention strategies and appropriate screening intervals.

    Personalized Follow-up Protocols

    After skin lesion removal, each patient receives a personalized monitoring protocol based on individual risk factors. Patients with family melanoma history, fair phototype, or numerous moles require more frequent controls. We use digital mapping technologies to create a skin "identity card" that immediately identifies new lesions or changes in existing ones. Our patients also receive specific education on skin self-examination and personalized photoprotection strategies.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why is an annual dermatological check-up important even without obvious symptoms?

    Even in the absence of visible symptoms, annual dermatological check-ups are fundamental for monitoring the general condition of the skin, preventing the onset of future problems, and ensuring early diagnosis of any skin abnormalities that may not be visible to the naked eye.

    How useful are surgical lasers in aesthetic dermatology treatments?

    Surgical lasers represent a fundamental resource in aesthetic dermatology treatments, thanks to their precision and versatility. These cutting-edge technologies allow for the removal of skin growths, treatment of imperfections such as spots or scars, and improvement of skin texture in a minimally invasive way. The use of surgical lasers minimizes impact on surrounding tissue, accelerates healing time, and ensures excellent aesthetic results. This technological support is indispensable for offering personalized treatments and optimizing both skin health and appearance.

    How can one integrate dermatological visits into their beauty routine?

    Planning a dermatological visit at least once a year is an essential care gesture, which works alongside periodic aesthetic treatments to maintain healthy, smooth, and flawless skin, elevating the effectiveness of one's beauty routine.
