How should I remove the dog ear after mohs?

Our office focuses on scar revision and skin cancer treatments. Once the wound is healed, we advocate scar revision to minimize the visibility of the dog ears. This can be done with simple excision techniques.Best, Dr. Karamanoukian 

This can be done as soon as 3-6 weeks after surgery, but most will say to waist 3-6 months.  I often use lasers and subcision with excellent results.  I suggest seeing a cosmetic expert for this type of treatment. Best, Dr. Emer.

Many Moh’s surgeons
will repair dog-ears during the surgical procedure if at all possible. If not, many will wait up to six months
before seeing if it is necessary to actually do a repair or to see if they have
“settled” into the skin and have a minimal effect on the final scar. If so, using an appropriate laser can then be
done to further minimize, if not almost eliminate the scar. Your surgeon is your prime source here and
has developed a routine that has worked well for him or her.

Thank you for your question. Dog ears after Mohs surgery
are ideally attended to three to six months after surgery. It is best to allow
complete healing of the scar prior to excising the dog ear.I would like to thank you for your question.
