Basal Cell Nevus Syndrome treatment in Cancún

Basal cell nevus syndrome, also called Gorlin syndrome, is an inherited disorder that predisposes to developing multiple skin lesions and that can be associated with other changes in the body from an early age.

Common manifestations:

• The appearance of several skin lesions over time
• Small pits on the palms of the hands or the soles of the feet
• Particular facial and bone features

Why does it require follow-up? Because periodic monitoring of the skin helps detect changes in a timely manner.

Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist is the one who examines and follows up on the skin lesions characteristic of this syndrome. If there is a family history of this condition or you notice skin lesions that keep multiplying, having it reviewed by this professional is the most sensible thing to do.
