Head and Neck Surgery

When it comes to plastic surgery for the head and neck, commonly, patients come in for the treatment of skin cancer lesions or moles.

Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in Australia and its occurrence is increasing daily. Skin cancer is the uncontrollable growth of neoplastic cells. Dr Pham and his excellent team at the Perth Cosmetic Surgery will be able to diagnose and treat both non-invasive and invasive types of cancers. Dr Pham is also the current president of the World International Federation of Facial Plastic Surgery Society.

Having a mole, naevi or benign lesion is common. The main reasons for removal are if the mole is unsightly or there are many if it’s getting bigger, if it looks suspicious or atypical, if the patient has a previous history of melanoma, or if it begins to bleed.
