MOHS Reconstruction in Bellevue, WA
MOHS reconstruction in Bellevue restores the face after skin-cancer removal with craniofacial precision.
Quick answer
MOHS reconstruction rebuilds the skin and soft tissue after MOHS skin-cancer surgery, restoring both appearance and function — especially on the face. Dr. Day’s reconstructive and craniofacial training makes him exceptionally well suited to facial reconstruction.
MOHS surgery precisely removes skin cancer but can leave a defect that needs expert closure, particularly on the nose, ears, eyelids, and lips where tissue is delicate and appearance matters most. Dr. Day uses local flaps, grafts, and reconstructive techniques to restore a natural look while preserving function.
His craniofacial background — the same that informs his cosmetic facial work — is a major advantage in reconstructing complex facial defects.
