ABSTRACT:
A method of performing skin lesion excision using balloon dissectors. The method's principle benefits are: (1) a reduction in the amount of time it takes the surgeon to create a surgical field with properly undermined and hemostatically controlled skin flaps, (2) a reduction in the amount of tension on the skin closure, and (3) an increase in the likelihood of optimal scar formation.
