Skin Conditions We Treat
Melanoma
Melanoma is the most serious type of skin cancer because it can spread very quickly to lymph nodes and other organs. Melanoma can be treated successfully when detected early; however, it can be fatal if it spreads (metastasizes) to other parts of the body. Melanoma is often a pigmented skin lesion – brown, black, tan in color – but can also be pink or red. They can arise within a pre-existing mole or develop as a new skin lesion. Warning signs for melanoma include a skin a lesion that has a change in size, shape, color, or becomes symptomatic (itching, bleeding).If you are concerned about a mole, pigmented lesion, or worry that you have melanoma, please call our office at 360-254-5267 so we can evaluate the lesion.
