Nasal reconstruction immediately following Mohs surgery

Posted on: December 2nd, 2025 by Our Team

With over 30 years of experience and thousands of surgeries performed, Dr. Morganroth has developed a specialized approach to nasal reconstruction following skin cancer removal that stands out for its effectiveness, safety, and convenience. By performing immediate, natural-appearing reconstruction right after Mohs surgery under local anesthesia, patients avoid the risks of general anesthesia and the inconvenience of a second procedure or referral to a plastic surgeon. This seamless, efficient method not only optimizes cosmetic results and preserves nasal function, but also reduces recovery time and stress, offering patients the safest and most efficient path to restoring their appearance and confidence in a single, expertly-executed visit. This patient saw Dr. Morganroth for treatment of a basal cell carcinoma of the nasal tip. After removal of the cancer with Mohs surgery for the highest cure rate, the defect was repaired with an adjacent tissue transfer or flap. The after photo is 3 months after the surgery. If you have a new facial growth that is not healing or continues to change, please schedule an appointment.
