Minor Surgery

I am trained in performing minor skin surgery for the purposes of diagnosis and management of skin lesions (including skin cancer) and other skin problems in children and adults. My performance data in this area demonstrates that I meet the recommended ‘gold standards’ within UK practice.

The procedures I perform regularly include:

• Skin and scalp biopsy
• Removal of skin lesions (e.g. skin tags, moles, cysts)
• Intralesional steroid injections for keloid scarring and hair loss disorders
• Botox for excessive underarm sweating
• Cryotherapy for skin lesions (e.g. warts, verrucas)
• Removal of skin cancers
