Skin Cancer Diagnosis, Reconstruction & Repair
Diagnosis and Treatment of Skin Cancers
Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer, accounting for at least 40% of all cancer diagnoses. Basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma are the most common types. Dr. Tedesco is highly skilled at not only fully removing the cancer with the smallest wound possible, but also in reconstructing the resulting defect. He uses a pathologist to check under the microscope at the time of the removal surgery to ensure all the cancer cells are out. He is especially skilled at reconstructing areas of the face, so they heal with minimal noticeable scar. He can even reconstruct defects from other surgeons or fix scars that have been left by skin cancer surgery.

MOHS Reconstruction
Green Country Surgical Arts offers expert Mohs reconstruction in close collaboration with trusted local dermatologists and Mohs surgeons. After skin cancer removal using Mohs micrographic surgery, our practice provides advanced reconstructive solutions designed to restore both function and natural appearance.
Mohs surgery is highly effective at removing skin cancer while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible. Once the cancer has been completely excised, our surgical team works seamlessly with your Mohs surgeon to perform precise repairs tailored to the size, depth, and location of the defect.
Our goal is to achieve optimal healing with careful attention to facial balance, symmetry, and long-term cosmetic outcomes. Each reconstruction plan is individualized, ensuring patients receive coordinated, comprehensive care—from cancer removal through final repair—all with comfort, safety, and confidence in mind.
If you have been referred for Mohs reconstruction, our team is honored to be part of your care and is committed to supporting you every step of the way.
