Dr. Alfredo Rodriguez Says "When It Comes to Mole Removal Get a Plastic Surgeon Involved Early"
Dallas, TX, December 07, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Alfredo Rodriguez, head of the Southwest Plastic Surgery Center (SPSC) in Mesquite, Texas, has performed more than 30,000 surgeries since his start in the 1980’s.
As a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Rodriguez explains, “Cancers of the skin are problematic even in the best of circumstances. Often patients have spent a lifetime in the sun and have no idea of the risk they put themselves in. Removing non or precancerous moles and other skin irregularities that are symptomatic of cancer can result in scars and other cosmetic imperfections that could be avoided or minimized. Getting a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon involved during the early detection process can affect the best outcome of both the treatment of the disease as well as the cosmetic issues.”
Dr. Rodriguez also said, “There are a variety of different skin cancer symptoms. These include changes in the skin that do not heal, ulcering of the skin, discolored skin, and changes in existing moles, such as jagged edges to the mole and enlargement of the mole itself. As Board Certified Plastic Surgeons we combine our experience and skill with the latest techniques and advances in surgery to minimize the impact on a patient’s lifestyle and self-esteem.”
Joyce Ryan, Practice Manager at S.P.S.C. states, “The staff and I make every effort to work patients into an appointment as quickly as possible when there might be a skin cancer problem. We know how important it is to get this diagnosed in its earliest stages.”
Dr. Rodriguez explains, “I encourage patients in Dallas, Garland, Mesquite and all the communities in eastern Dallas County and beyond to contact a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for regular mole checks or at least come in at the earliest sign of a problem. Skin cancer is a ticking time bomb, the longer the patient waits the potentially worse the outcome. The Board Certified Plastic Surgeon can provide a great health benefit when given the chance.”
Dr. Rodriguez specializes in performing the full spectrum of cosmetic and reconstructive surgeries such as: breast augmentation, abdominoplasty and tummy tucks, eyelid blepharoplasty, breast reductions, eye brow lifts, nose reshaping and rhinoplasty, skin resurfacing, chemical peels, scar remediation and other related procedures for men and women.
