Which treatment is recommended for skin cancer?

Surgery: It certainly depends on the type of skin cancer, but the majority of skin cancers are basal cell carcinomas and the majority of these should be treated with surgery. There are medications that can be used and some patients are treated with radiation. Discuss these options with your dermatologist to decide which is best for you.
