Types of Skin Cancer

There are two most common types of skin cancer—Basal cell and Squamous cell cancer. Basal cell cancer is slow-growing and rarely spread to the other parts of the body while Squamous cell cancer, though this also rarely spreads, has more chances of spreading in different parts of the body. Just like in any kind of cancer, early treatment is crucial to avoid destroying healthy nearby tissues.

Convenient Nonsurgical Treatment for Skin Cancer

Here at Bradenton Dermatology & Laser Center, we offer Superficial Radiotherapy (SRT). This is a low-energy radiotherapy that penetrates only a short distance below the skin’s surface. If you need a nonsurgical alternative to treat skin cancer, SRT is the best option for you! It is painless and highly effective. GentleCure Image-Guided SRT — a pain-free cure for basal and squamous cell skin cancers.

The GentleCure Image-Guided SRT is used to treat lesions on the arms, legs, back, and trunk. Using this procedure is also best for treating skin cancer on the head and neck regions including the fold on the nose, lips, ear lining, eyelids, and corner of the mouth because it only leaves minimal scarring. This is also the best option for high-risk patients for surgical procedures.
