Summer Skin Cancer Prevention: How Sunscreen and Mohs Surgery Offer the Best Defense

With summer bringing stronger sun exposure and increased risk for skin cancer, it's more important than ever to prioritize prevention and know your treatment options. New York dermatologist Dr. Shelton-recognized by patients as the Best Mohs Surgeon in NYC-urges sun safety and highlights Mohs micrographic surgery as the gold standard for effective skin cancer removal.

As temperatures climb and beach days increase, dermatologists warn of rising cases of non-melanoma skin cancers such as basal and squamous cell carcinomas. "Comprehensive sun protection is not just about SPF-it includes wearing protective clothing, seeking shade, and avoiding peak sun hours between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.," says Dr. Shelton, whose expertise in Mohs surgery has earned him the title of Best Mohs Surgeon in NYC.

Mohs surgery is widely considered the most precise and effective method for removing skin cancers, especially in sensitive areas like the face. The technique involves removing the visible tumor and analyzing tissue immediately under a microscope to ensure all cancer cells are removed-while conserving as much healthy tissue as possible.

Dr. Shelton explains: "Mohs has the highest cure rates-up to 99% for certain skin cancers-combined with the advantage of minimal scarring and preservation of healthy skin." His patients consistently praise his meticulous technique and compassionate care, reinforcing his reputation as the Best Mohs Surgeon in NYC.
