Different types of skin cancer require different treatment approaches.
Most require surgery to remove the skin cancer first.

All the best.
Thank you Suzanne; I will have a look.

Thanks again Suzanne. From reading the article I understand that chemotherapy can be administered orally in the form of tablets. So to answer my own question with your most appreciated direction is: "Yes there are skin cancers that can be treated with tablets administered orally."
Again, your help is most appreciated.
