The Basics – Skin Lesion in West Palm Beach

Dr. Kris Reddy, West Palm Beach Board Certified plastic surgeon, usually removes skin lesions and skin growths such as cysts for patients who are 18 or older at his West Palm Beach Plastic Surgery Center, his AAAASF nationally accredited facility utilizing MD Anesthesiologists to provide general anesthesia, iv sedation, or local anesthesia.

A skin lesion is any alteration in normal skin architecture. There are many different kinds of skin lesions: benign, pre-malignant, and malignant, which can occur on any site throughout the body. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to clinically differentiate a skin lesion into one of these categories.

There are many types of benign skin lesions and the diagnoses can often be made by clinical examination. Those lesions for which the diagnoses are uncertain may require Dr. Reddy, West Palm Beach skin lesion expert, to perform an incisional or excisional biopsy.

A pre-malignant lesion, given time, may become malignant. Examples of pre-malignant lesions include dysplastic nevi, giant congenital nevi, nevus sevaceous, and actinic keratosis.

The three most common malignancies seen are basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma. Other rare cutaneous and subcutaneous malignancies are also seen.

While the evaluation and determination of skin growths (such as skin tags and moles) tend to fall into the field of dermatology, Dr. Reddy, West Palm Beach skin growth expert, can remove certain noncancerous skin tags and moles in a manner to minimize or prevent scars. Most skin growths can be done with local anesthesia without the necessity of an MD Anesthesiologist.
