Something you can see or feel
Twenty-one skin conditions, each written up from the clinic’s own patient leaflet.
Skin — inflammatory & chronic
Long-running inflammatory skin conditions such as acne, psoriasis, vitiligo, lichen planus, rosacea, urticaria and hidradenitis suppurativa.
- AcneAn inflammatory skin disease that blocks the oil glands and causes blackheads, whiteheads, pus-filled spots and cysts.
- Acne scars and marksMarks and scars left behind by inflamed acne, from flat surface pigmentation to deeper pitted scarring.
- PsoriasisA long-term inflammatory skin disease that produces red, thickened patches covered with silvery-white scales.
- VitiligoA condition in which the cells that make skin pigment stop working, leaving milky-white patches on the skin.
- Lichen planusAn itchy rash of violet or skin-coloured bumps with fine white streaks, which can appear almost anywhere on the body.
- Lichen planus pigmentosusSlate-grey patches of pigmentation, mostly on sun-exposed skin of the face and neck, common in darker skin.
- RosaceaA common facial rash of middle age causing lasting redness, visible blood vessels, small red bumps and pustules.
- UrticariaRaised, red, itchy welts that appear suddenly on the skin, lasting either under six weeks or much longer.
- Hidradenitis suppurativaA long-term, painful condition causing boil-like lumps, pus discharge and scarring in the armpits, groin and under the breasts.
- Pityriasis roseaA harmless rash that starts with one large oval patch, then spreads as smaller pink patches and settles on its own.
- Keratolysis exfoliativaRecurrent peeling of the skin of the palms, and sometimes the soles, common in children and young adults.
Skin — infections
Fungal, viral and parasitic infections of the skin, including tinea, pityriasis versicolor, shingles, cold sores, warts, scabies and molluscum contagiosum.
- Superficial fungal infectionsVery common, very itchy ring-shaped fungal patches, named for wherever on the body they occur.
- Pityriasis versicolorA yeast infection of oily skin that causes light and dark patches with fine scales, mostly on the chest, neck and back.
- Herpes zosterA painful rash of grouped blisters on one side of the body, caused by the chickenpox virus reactivating.
- Herpes labialisWater-filled blisters on and around the lips, caused by a common and highly contagious herpes simplex virus.
- WartsSkin growths caused by the human papillomavirus, which look different depending on their type and where they are.
- ScabiesAn intensely itchy rash, worst at night, caused by a human mite that burrows into the top layers of the skin.
- Molluscum contagiosumA common viral skin infection producing small, firm, dome-shaped bumps, treatable in the clinic with cryotherapy.
Hair & scalp
Hair loss and scalp complaints, including male- and female-pattern hair loss and dandruff.
Systemic conditions with skin signs
Conditions of the body as a whole that often show themselves first on the skin, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome.
A treatment you have already heard of
Ten procedures, with what each one involves and how suitability is assessed.
Lasers & light-based treatments
Laser and light treatments for unwanted hair, pigmentation, tattoos and visible facial blood vessels.
- Laser hair removalLaser light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle. Most people find that regrowth becomes slower and finer over a course of sittings.
- Q-Switched Nd:YAG laserA laser that targets pigment in the skin, used for freckles, age spots, melasma, pigmentation and tattoo removal.
- Intense pulsed lightA light-based treatment named in the rosacea leaflet for reducing visible facial blood vessels.
Phototherapy
Medical ultraviolet light treatment for vitiligo, psoriasis and other conditions, given either targeted at a lesion or as PUVA.
Injectables & regenerative
Treatments prepared from the patient's own blood and injected to stimulate hair growth.
Resurfacing & skin rejuvenation
Procedures that exfoliate or remodel the skin to improve acne scars, pigmentation, pores, fine lines and texture.
- Microneedling fractional radiofrequency (MNRF)Superfine microneedles combined with radiofrequency heat to remodel collagen and improve scars and skin texture.
- Chemical peelingA controlled application of a chemical agent that speeds up exfoliation, so smoother skin regenerates from below.
- MicrodermabrasionA gentle, non-invasive exfoliation using a fine spray of medical-grade crystals to reveal fresher skin beneath.
Minor procedures & lesion removal
Office procedures to remove or destroy unwanted skin lesions, such as cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen.

ENT surgery
Micro ear surgery, functional endoscopic sinus surgery and other procedures, with the day-care theatre at the clinic.
