Mohs Surgery at KM Surgical

Mohs Micrographic Surgery is the gold standard for treating certain skin cancers offering the highest cure rates while preserving healthy tissue.

Performed by Mohs Surgeon Dr Tom Middelburg, Mohs is especially valuable for cancers on the nose, eyelids, lips, ears and face, where precision matters.

How it works:
🔹 Skin cancer is removed in layers
🔹Specimens are prepared onsite in our lab
🔹 Each layer is examined under the microscope
🔹 Only remaining cancer cells are re-excised
🔹 Tissue is preserved and margins confirmed clear
🔹 Reconstruction follows the same day

If you’ve been diagnosed with a BCC or SCC or have a recurrent skin cancer, Mohs may be the most effective option. A GP referral is required for a consultation with one of our dermatologists.

Laser Resurfacing - A consultation now gives you time to prepare your skin and plan your procedure for the best possible outcome.

If you’ve been considering laser resurfacing to improve texture, scarring, lines or sun damage now is the ideal time to come in for your consultation at KM Surgical.

✔ Cooler months = better healing conditions
Laser resurfacing is always safest and most effective when UV exposure is lower and we can better protect the new skin as it heals.

✔ Prep now for peak results later
Optimal resurfacing starts with a skin prep phase, pigment control, hydration and barrier support especially for those with pigmentation, sun damage or acne scarring. Winter allows our team to design your treatment plan with time on your side.

✔ World-class technology
KM Surgical offers both:

• Alma Laser – our nursing team has undergone extensive international training on Alma resurfacing devices for precision, control and safety.

• UltraPulse Encore – regarded internationally as the gold standard CO₂ resurfacing platform for deeper lines, scars and advanced photodamage.

✔ Expert clinical experience
Laser resurfacing at KM Surgical is led by Dermatologist Dr Ken Macdonald, with 20+ years of experience using the UltraPulse Encore.

✔ A customised approach
Resurfacing is not one-size-fits-all we tailor treatment depending on:

• Skin type
• Skin age & resilience
• Pigmentation risk
• Desired recovery timeframe
•What we are treating eg scaring, lines (wrinkles)
• Lifestyle & seasonal timing

Book your consultation now to begin prepping for your winter laser treatment.
Your future skin will thank you. 03 3771010 email: kmdsurgical@derm.co.nz

Realistic Expectations in Appearance Medicine.

In appearance medicine there isn’t always one magic treatment that fixes everything. Every face tells its own story genetics, ageing, sun exposure, muscle strength, skin thickness, lifestyle and bone structure all play a role.

Sometimes it takes a combination approach:

• injectables
• skin treatments
• medical skincare
• energy devices(lasers/IPL/BBL)
• time for collagen to rebuild

Results are not created overnight. Some changes are immediate, others are gradual, because long-lasting improvements often rely on your body producing its own collagen and elastin.

The best results come from planning, consistency, and layering the right treatments over time.

We offer a complimentary consultation with Adele, Amanda, Kirsty or Louise.
