Melanoma greatly torments patients, affecting their physical and mental health, and also unnecessarily harming their external appearance. However, treatment of this disease must be approached with caution. Surgical excision is recommended and is the first choice for the surgical treatment of melanoma. If diagnosed, surgery should be carried out promptly. The extent of excision depends on the type and location of the tumor. After excision, the resulting tissue defect is generally repaired using simple methods initially, followed by reconstructive surgery after confirming no recurrence.
