What to Expect After a Melanoma Diagnosis
At Apollo Dermatology, we understand the anxiety that can accompany a melanoma diagnosis. However, there’s reassuring news: melanomas caught early are highly treatable, often requiring only a straightforward surgical procedure.
Next Steps: What Treatments are Available for Melanoma?
Early-stage melanoma treatment typically involves a minor surgical excision under local anesthesia. Once treated, it’s essential to maintain vigilance. Regular skin exams every six months, including careful lymph node checks, are crucial in ensuring the melanoma has not recurred or spread.
Apollo Dermatology is proud to offer expert melanoma care led by our board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Arjun Dupati. Dr. Dupati brings extensive experience in diagnosing, treating, and managing melanoma surveillance, giving you confidence and peace of mind.
Our clinic also collaborates closely with renowned melanoma centers such as Henry Ford and the University of Michigan Melanoma clinics. This collaborative approach ensures our patients receive comprehensive, cutting-edge care. Additionally, Dr. Dupati has undergone extensive training at the University of Michigan Melanoma clinic during his dermatology residency, further enhancing the quality of care we provide.
Your health is our priority. If you’ve recently been diagnosed with melanoma or need regular skin checks, Apollo Dermatology is here to support you every step of the way.
