Honest information
Surgical treatment for melanoma involves certain risks, but they are generally manageable with proper care.
Bleeding
Minor bleeding is expected after surgery.
Infection
Low risk with appropriate post-operative care and antibiotics.
Scarring
Surgical excision always leaves a scar, but its appearance can be minimized over time.
Recurrence
There is a risk of melanoma recurrence, necessitating regular follow-up appointments.
Nerve damage
Rare but possible, depending on the excision area.
If something concerns you at home
After returning home, monitor the surgical site for any signs of infection and follow wound care instructions. Avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen on the affected area.
