Skin cancer treatment

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

Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC)

The most common form of skin cancer. Usually slow-growing and rarely spreads to other parts of the body.

Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC)

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

Melanoma

The most serious form of skin cancer. Develops in the cells that produce melanin. Early detection is critical.
