Summary

This study looks at two ways to heal scalp wounds after Mohs surgery for skin cancer. One method lets the wound heal naturally, which can take 8 weeks or more. The other uses a thin skin graft from the groin to help the wound close faster. Researchers will compare healing time and scar quality in 50 adults.
