What is skin cancer treatment?
At the Mountain View Dermatology and Aesthetics office located in Tucson, AZ, Dr. Marc I. Epstein and his team offer advanced skin cancer treatment for non-melanoma skin cancer using GentleCure Image-Guided SRT (Superficial Radiation Therapy). This revolutionary therapy exclusively targets skin cancer cells, deploying minimal x-ray energy to eradicate them. It holds the distinctive status of being the sole radiation treatment in the skin cancer field to utilize ultrasound imaging, a technique that facilitates precise visualization of the cancer's dimensions, enabling an accurately dosed treatment focused on the affected area. This innovative approach ensures targeted treatment and allows us to monitor the progressive reduction and eventual elimination of the cancer with each session. To explore more about this cutting-edge therapy, feel free to contact the Tucson, AZ office.
What Can I Expect with Skin Cancer Treatment?
During an Image-Guided SRT treatment at Mountain View Dermatology and Aesthetics, a specialized gel is applied directly to the cancer site, which is then examined using an imaging wand to yield a detailed visual of the afflicted area. This step facilitates the careful measurement of the tumor’s dimensions, thereby allowing for an accurate determination of the requisite treatment dose and the exact delineation of the treatment zone. Following this, the device's arm is positioned over the treatment site to administer a precisely calibrated dose of x-ray energy, targeting just the cancerous cells without affecting the surrounding healthy tissue. Each session only requires 15 minutes scheduled three times weekly with a total treatment period of six weeks.

Mountain View Dermatology and Aesthetics Reviews
Really happy with my results from Opus and BBL. I bought a package of 3 Opus treatments and could see a major difference after the first treatment. Shelley changes up the laser settings depending on the results I'm going for and I don't have the long downtimes I was experiencing with other treatments. Also found some incredible sunscreen.
Good service and very friendly staff!
Excellent
Very nice people at Mountain View. Had me in and out and I am already happy with my results!
I have been going to Mountain View Aesthetics since 2018. Rochelle has performed all of my skincare procedures. She does such a thorough job. My skin has never looked better. She explains in detail the difference between all of the procedures they offer. I highly recommend Rochelle.
