If you have been diagnosed with skin cancer, treatment options depend on the stage of cancer, type of cancer, size and location of the tumor and your general health.

We offer the following types of skin cancer treatment here at Scripps Ranch Dermatology and Cosmetic Center.

Cryosurgery: This treatment uses liquid nitrogen to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue.

Excision: The tumor is cut from the skin along with some of the normal skin around it.

ALA (Levulan) Photodynamic Therapy (PDT): This cancer treatment uses Levulan and laser to target cancer cells and pre-cancerous cells and destroys them.

If you require other types of skin cancer surgery, we have a few select physicians we can refer you to.

We are the skin experts! Dr. Mauricio is an international authority in the field of Dermatology and is highly respected among her peers. You can trust that our office, you are receiving the highest quality care.
