The doctors at National Skin Cancer Centres strive to deliver prompt, efficient and effective treatments that minimise scarring. Most skin cancers can be completely cured if detected early.

The treatment received will depend on multiple factors:

  • Type of cancer: Some skin cancers are more dangerous than others and all must be treated with appropriate techniques.

  • Size: Some skin cancers can spread out across a larger area of the skin or may have penetrated deeper into underlying tissues.

  • Location: A skin cancer on your arm will require different treatment to a cancer on a body part which is more sensitive.

  • Progression: Sometimes skin cancers can spread to other body organs, requiring a combination of different treatment methods.

Treatment options for skin cancer

Surgery Curettage Cryotherapy Topical cream
The skin cancer and a margin of surrounding tissue are fully excised with a scalpel. The wound is sealed with sutures. The skin cancer is scraped with a sharp instrument and surrounding tissue is burned to eliminate cancer cell remnants. Spraying liquid nitrogen onto the skin cancer and an area around it, the cancer is frozen and abnormal cells are killed. A cream is applied that stimulates the immune system and promotes your own body to destroy the cancer cells naturally.
