Skin Cancer Reconstruction Philadelphia

Among the most common forms of cancer, skin cancer affects over than 500,000 people each year in the US, and the incidence is rising faster than any other type of cancer. While skin cancers can be found on any part of the body, about 80 percent appear on the face, head, or neck, where they can be disfiguring as well as dangerous.

After skin cancer treatment, reconstruction of the skin for both function and appearance is important.  Dr. Brenman specializes in skin cancer reconstruction in Philadelphia.

Reconstructive techniques, which range from a simple scar revision to a complex transfer of tissue flaps from elsewhere on the body, often repair damaged tissue, rebuild body parts, and restore most patients to improved appearance and function.
