A VISIT TO THE OFFICE OF DR ASKEN,SAUL

This is the third in a series of office visitations to observe the pra ctices of well-known dermatologic surgeons. The author performs these techniques himself and has written this article through the eyes of an experienced surgeon observing the work of a well-known colleague. Alt hough my technique and philosophy differ somewhat from what is describ ed herein, I have objectively described the surgical preferences of my host surgeon. Other dermatologic surgeons will recognize that there a re alternate methods for performing these procedures. Hopefully the ex periences reported here will add to the knowledge of all those who per form these surgeries.
