Our Procedures
Report
To adequately evaluate the structure of your skin lesions, a dermascope is used. This microscopy tool employs polarized light to aid Dr. Kravitz in distinguishing normal benign growths from suspicious lesions, which may require removal. This technology can reduce the rate of unnecessary biopsies and aid in the detection of skin cancers.
Skin Cancer & Atypical Moles
Report
There are numerous types of skin cancer, which is why most adults should have a complete skin exam. We recommend that you arrive for your visit without make-up, hair spray, or nail polish obscuring our ability to fully examine your hair, scalp, skin, and nails.
The most common non-melanoma skin cancers are Basal Cell Carcinoma & Squamous Cell Carcinoma, which typically arise in tissue that has been damaged by the sun, viruses, burns, or other trauma.Pre-cancerous lesions called Actinic Keratoses often demonstrate the beginning of a non-melanoma skin cancer.
