Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer, but when identified early and managed by a specialist, the vast majority of cases are successfully treated. Dr Memon provides a comprehensive consultant-led service for the diagnosis and management of all types of skin malignancies.
Pre-Cancerous Lesions
Early intervention on sun-damaged skin can often prevent invasive cancer from developing.
Actinic Keratosis: Also known as “solar keratosis,” these are rough, scaly patches caused by years of sun exposure. Dr Memon offers targeted treatments such as Cryotherapy (liquid nitrogen) and specialist field creams to clear these lesions effectively.
Bowen’s Disease: A very early form of skin cancer that is confined to the outermost layer of the skin. It is treated with precision to ensure it does not progress further.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): Typically appearing as a persistent pearly bump or a non-healing sore. Dr Memon specializes in the complete surgical excision of BCCs, prioritizing both clinical cure and a high-quality aesthetic result.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC): Often presenting as a firm, scaly lump or crusty patch. Prompt surgical removal is essential to prevent local spread.
Malignant Melanoma: The most serious form of skin cancer. Dr Memon provides urgent assessment and definitive surgical management, including wide-local excisions tailored to the depth of the lesion.
All surgical procedures are performed by Dr Memon under local anaesthetic at Renacres Hall Hospital or Fairfield Independent Hospital.
Painless Procedure: Local anaesthetic ensures you are comfortable and pain-free throughout the treatment.
Histological Analysis: Every lesion removed is sent to a specialist pathology laboratory for microscopic examination to confirm the diagnosis and ensure clear margins.
Results & Follow-up: Dr Memon personally reviews all pathology reports and conducts a follow-up consultation to discuss the findings and your long-term skin health plan.
