Most skin cancers are cured surgically in the office of dermatologist. Of skin cancer does not return, most did so within three years. Therefore, follow up with your dermatologist (skin specialist) as recommended. Make an appointment immediately if you suspect a problem.
If you have advanced melanoma, your oncologist may want to see every few months. These visits may include tests of total body skin, control of regional lymph nodes, and regular chest X-rays. Over time, the intervals between visits will increase. Finally, these controls can be made only once a year.
