Dermatological Surgery

Benson Dermatology practices refined surgery with cutting-edge techniques that ensure the best possible results.

Most dermatologists are expert surgeons. In fact, dermatologists perform more surgical procedures than any other specialty. A normal day at Benson Dermatology involves the removal of several skin cancers, a number of benign growths such as cysts and moles, and countless precancerous and viral growths. All are done under local anesthesia using refined cosmetic surgery techniques to ensure the best possible cosmetic result.*

Common Dermatology Surgeries & Treatments

Even some medical conditions that are disfiguring can be remedied, such as rhinophyma. Rhinophyma is a common condition that greatly thickens the nasal skin reminiscent of the nose of W.C. Fields. For this patient to the right, a forty-five-minute procedure erased decades of disfigurement.*

Likewise, unsightly moles, as well as skin tags of all sizes, are often removed in seconds, and dangerous skin cancers are completely eradicated with microscopic verification. The skin is then repaired to leave minimal or no residual scarring.*
