How do you prepare for Mohs surgery?

I am a 52 year old female. I want to know how do you prepare for Mohs surgery?

The surgeon that is performing the procedure and their team will explain what to expect prior to surgery typically during pre-op calls and consultations.
Wash the area with antibacterial soap. Depending on how many layers are needed, the closure can be more extensive.
