Olansky Dermatology & Aesthetics in Atlanta delivers advanced treatment methods to successfully treat squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Our dermatologists carry the experience and expertise you need when it comes to all types of skin cancer. If you suspect you have squamous cell carcinoma, we can offer a variety of treatment solutions including prompt in-office removal if necessary. We recommend skin cancer treatment based on the type, size, location, and depth of penetration of the squamous cell carcinoma tumor. Our dermatologists also consider your age and general health, as well as the cosmetic outcome of your specific treatments at our Atlanta dermatology practice. Our advanced Mohs surgery is currently the most successful treatment option available for skin cancer. We are proud to have two Mohs Micrographic Surgeons in our practice. Dr. David Olansky & Dr. Humza Ilyas have been successfully treating squamous cell carcinoma with Mohs for many years.

Warning Signs of Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Do you have areas of skin that are chronically exposed to the sun? If so, you need to be aware of the warning signs of squamous cell carcinoma. Our skin care experts at Olansky Dermatology & Aesthetics understand the importance of thoroughly evaluating all skin concerns, especially for symptoms and signs that indicate skin cancer. Squamous cell carcinoma often presents itself on sun-exposed parts of the body and appears as thick, rough, scaly patch that may bleed. Areas of SCC often resemble a wart, but they can sometimes appear as an open sore. Olansky Dermatology & Aesthetics makes it a priority to help your entire family achieve healthy skin. We offer advanced skin cancer screenings, as well as education on squamous cell carcinoma warning signs and skin cancer prevention to patients of all ages.

Symptoms of Squamous Cell Carcinoma

We take your symptoms of SCC seriously at Olansky Dermatology & Aesthetics. When left untreated, squamous cell carcinoma can rarely spread to other parts of the body, such as the lymphatic system, bloodstream, and even nerve routes. We not only provide the accurate diagnosis of your SCC symptoms, but we are equipped with the state-of-the-art equipment and specialized training it takes to effectively treat your skin cancer. Early detection is critical to your SCC treatment outcome. If you are fair-skinned or have a higher risk of cumulative UV exposure, Olansky Dermatology & Aesthetics can give you the professional skin cancer screening you need to detect SCC early.
