Treatment of skin cancer is determined by the type, stage and general health of the disease. Treatment options may include:
Surgery: Removal of the cancerous cell or cells.
Cryotherapy: A method of freezing cancerous cells using liquid nitrogen.
Electrocotherapy: A method of destroying cancerous cells using high-frequency electric current.
Radiotherapy: The destruction of cancer cells by radiation.
Immunotherapy: Destroying cancer cells by stimulating immune system cells against cancer cells.
Skin cancer treatment is usually administered as a combination of these treatments. The treatment plan is determined by the type, stage and general health of the patient. In addition, pain relievers, antiemetics (anti-vomiting drugs) and other supportive treatments can be used to control symptoms during treatment.
Skin cancer treatment is done by a dermatologist or oncologist. You can contact us for more information about all relevant treatment options and outcomes.
