Skin lesion surgery involves the assessment and surgical removal of selected benign, suspicious or changing skin lesions. Skin lesions can vary considerably in their appearance, size, location and underlying cause, and careful clinical assessment is important when determining the appropriate treatment.

Depending on the nature and location of the lesion, treatment may involve surgical excision followed by direct closure or another appropriate method of wound management. Where clinically indicated, the removed tissue may be sent for pathological examination to establish or confirm the diagnosis.

Treatment is planned according to the individual lesion and the patient's circumstances, with consideration given to achieving appropriate removal while minimising unnecessary damage to surrounding tissue.
