Mohs Reconstructionin Beverly Hills

About three and a half million Americans suffer from skin cancer annually, with the highest occurrence on the face.

As part of the skin cancer treatment, many undergo Mohs surgery, an advanced surgical procedure that removes affected skin off the face. Mohs surgery often leaves the patient’s face deformed. At Allure Aesthetic Surgery of Beverly Hills, we offer Mohs reconstruction to reconstruct the face. Dr. David Shamouelian, a Double Board Certified facial plastic surgeon, specializes in Mohs reconstruction, an advanced surgical reconstructive procedure. Benefits of this outpatient surgery include:

• Preserves natural skin appearance and function
• Minimal recovery time
• Long lasting results and wound repair

About the Reconstruction

Patients who undergo Mohs reconstruction surgery at Allure Aesthetic Surgery of Beverly Hills are normally treated under local anesthesia and are able to go home immediately after the procedure. Dr. Shamouelian expertly reconstructs the affected area of the face with a keen eye for balance, symmetry and function. Most patients require a single reconstructive procedure, while others may require additional touch ups. Dr. Shamouelian’s expertise pertains to reconstruction of the Head and Neck Area including the nose, face, and ears. Completing a fellowship in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery has given him a skill set to restore both function and aesthetics. The reconstruction is planned once all cancer cells have been confirmed to be removed by the dermatologist. Depending on the area to be treated, Mohs reconstruction surgery could take anywhere from 30-120 minutes to complete.
