    At Horizon Cancer Centre, we evaluate any suspicious skin conditions meticulously for accurate diagnosis and to plan a surgery that completely removes cancer according to oncological principles while preserving or restoring appearance and function.

    Types of Skin Cancers

    Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC)

    Commonly found on sun-exposed areas like the face and hands. Has a higher risk of spreading than BCC.

    Skin Cancer
