Skin Cancer Removal

At Kirbha Clinic, skin cancer removal is performed by Mr Bhagwat Mathur. Skin cancers, including basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and melanoma, can be serious conditions that require timely assessment and precise management.

  • BCC is the most common skin cancer, often appearing as small, pearly bumps or patches that may bleed or ulcerate. BCC can be superficial, nodular, cystic, pigmented, infiltrative or cicatricial in presentation.
  • SCC typically develops as firm, scaly, or crusted lesions, sometimes on sun-exposed areas, with potential for spread and deeper tissue involvement if left untreated.
  • Melanoma is the most serious form, often presenting as dark or irregularly shaped moles or patches, and requires early, specialist intervention. In some cases, melanoma can develop from existing moles or present as new pigmented lesions (as in cases of lentigo or in situ melanoma). This is why any mole that changes in size, shape, colour, or sensation should be assessed promptly by an experienced consultant surgeon.

Although the prospect of skin cancer can be worrying, early detection and expert surgical removal significantly improves outcomes. At our clinics in London, Essex and across East of England,Mr Mathur assesses each lesion thoroughly and selects the safest, most effective removal technique. Depending on lesion size, type, and location, procedures may include excision, skin grafting, or skin flap reconstruction, all performed under local anaesthetic where appropriate.

Mr Bhagwat Mathur is one of the leading clinicians for skin cancer in Essex. He has removed thousands of skin cancers in his decades-long surgical career. Patients benefit from same-day consultation and treatment in many cases, minimising delays and providing reassurance throughout the process. The focus is on safe, complete removal, and optimal healing.

Frequently asked questions

Procedures are performed under local anaesthetic or with sedation, ensuring minimal discomfort. Mild soreness, redness, or swelling is normal during healing and can be managed with simple pain relief. Mr Mathur prioritises patient comfort and gentle tissue handling.

Recovery varies depending on lesion size and complexity. Small excisions may heal in 1-2 weeks, while larger procedures requiring grafts or flaps may take 2-4 weeks. Follow-up appointments ensure optimal healing and monitoring.

Minor swelling, bruising, and scarring are common. Serious complications are infrequent. Detailed aftercare instructions help minimise risks and support recovery.

Keep the area clean and dry, follow dressing instructions, and avoid trauma to the site. Mr Mathur provides personalised aftercare guidance and is available for follow-up if concerns arise.

While removal eliminates the treated lesion, incomplete excision and recurrence can happen and new skin cancers can develop elsewhere. Regular skin checks and early assessment of new skin lesions are essential.

 

Every skin cancer patient at Kirbha Clinic benefits from consultant-led care throughout. The journey begins with a detailed assessment by Mr Mathur, including examination and discussion of biopsy or imaging results if needed. A personalised treatment plan is created, with procedures carried out safely under local anaesthetic or sedation. Post-procedure, patients receive thorough aftercare instructions and follow-up to monitor healing and detect any recurrence early. With clinics in London, Essex, and across East of England, patients have access to timely, expert care in a supportive and reassuring environment.
