Human skin is more susceptible than other organs to the negative effects of environmental factors, especially exposure to ultraviolet radiation. Recently, due to worsening ecology and the depletion of the ozone layer, the impact of harmful ultraviolet rays has increased, leading to a rise in the incidence of cancer affecting our shield – the skin.
Skin cancer today is one of the most common oncological diseases in humans. Doctors and scientists around the world are diligently working on inventing new and more effective methods to combat this type of cancer. Leading in this area are oncologists from Israel, specifically the doctors at the Top Ichilov clinic. They have access to new equipment, progressive techniques, and modern approaches to treating skin tumors. The removal of skin tumors in Israel today is performed using only gentle surgical techniques with subsequent plastic surgery and reconstruction of the skin.
Gentle Removal of Skin Tumors at Top Ichilov
Skin tumors can be either benign or malignant. Benign tumors should be removed due to the risk of them transforming into cancerous ones. At Top Ichilov, several progressive techniques are used for the removal of skin tumors, which are the least invasive for the body and aimed solely at the neoplasm.
- Laser Surgery – targeted exposure to the formation with a beam of laser radiation. Under the influence of the laser, the cells and tissues of the tumor simply evaporate.
- Electrocoagulation involves burning the elements of the formation with a beam of high-frequency electric current. Like the previous method, electrocoagulation is characterized by the absence of postoperative scars and blood loss, as both the laser and the current coagulate the subcutaneous vessels, as well as provide precise effects on the affected tissues.
- Cryotherapy – this is the freezing of skin neoplasms, that is, removal using liquid nitrogen. The procedure is painless, highly effective – it promotes the rapid death of tumor cells and tissues. Additionally, it does not require rehabilitation.
- Radiation Surgery – exposure to the formation with high-frequency radio waves. The result of the procedure is the evaporation of the cells of the neoplasm.
- Mohs Surgery. This unique author technique was developed by American physician Frederick Mohs back in 1978, which has proven its effectiveness and is now actively used by doctors at Top Ichilov for treating cancerous skin tumors, particularly melanoma and basal cell carcinoma. The method consists of layer-by-layer removal of the formation with microscopic examination of each layer during the operation for the presence/absence of cancer cells. The surgical intervention continues until the surgeon obtains a layer of skin free from pathological inclusions. To perform such an operation, one must have exceptional knowledge and extensive experience, as well as special equipment. All of this is available to the doctors at the Top Ichilov clinic.

Diagnostic Examination Before Tumor Removal
Before the removal of skin tumors in Israel, the patient must undergo precise diagnostics, during which doctors clarify the size, location, and nature of the formation and select the most effective method to combat the pathology.
- Laboratory tests.
- Dermatoscopy – examination of the tumor using a dermatoscope, an instrument equipped with a microscope with high magnification.
- Cytological examination of biomaterials obtained through biopsy or PCR methods.
- Biopsy.
- PET-CT and PET-MRI – for skin cancer.
Removal of Skin Tumors in Israel – Prices
Global prices for modern progressive surgeries can sometimes shock with their exorbitant figures, especially in European countries and the USA.
