In the Parisian medical landscape, it can sometimes be difficult to know which specialist to consult for a skin lesion. While the dermatologist is the skin doctor, the skin surgeon (or dermatological surgeon) is the expert in the technical procedure. At the Yaphé Center, this specialty is at the heart of our activity, combining oncological rigor and aesthetic finesse.
Surgical expertise dedicated to the skin
The skin surgeon possesses a perfect knowledge of skin anatomy and the underlying vascular and nerve networks. This expertise is crucial, especially during facial procedures where every millimeter counts.
Unlike general surgery, the surgery performed at the Yaphé Center aims at two inseparable objectives:
- Curative efficacy: Remove the lesion (tumor, cyst, suspicious mole) completely.
Aesthetic excellence: Place the incisions so that they disappear into expression lines or shadowy areas of the face.
Key procedures performed at the clinic
Our surgeons treat a wide variety of pathologies on a daily basis:
- Skin cancers (carcinomas and melanomas): The excision must be precise, with safety margins defined by health protocols. At the Yaphé Center, we ensure rapid treatment to limit the risk of spread.
- Minor but bothersome lesions: Sebaceous cysts, lipomas (fatty lumps) or xanthelasmas (cholesterol deposits on the eyelids) require careful extraction to avoid recurrence.
- Mole (Nevus) Surgery: Whether it is an aesthetic request or a medical recommendation, the removal is carried out under local anesthesia in perfect aseptic conditions.
