Not all minor skin surgery is the same. For some lesions, especially those on the face or with a history of change, specialist consultant-led care is strongly recommended.
GP/Nurse-Led Minor Surgery
- Often suitable for simple, small lesions
- May have limited access to advanced surgical techniques
Consultant-Led Minor Skin Surgery
- Ideal for complex, cosmetic, or previously rejected lesions
- Specialist techniques for minimal scarring and best outcomes
- Rapid access (appointments in days)
- Full aftercare and follow-up with the same consultant
Why choose consultant-led care?
Patients who want fast, expert treatment, personal attention, and the best cosmetic results should always consider a consultant pathway. It’s also the safest option for any lesion that’s new, changing, or causing concern.
