As the largest organ in the human body, your skin needs regular care to stay healthy and happy. The skin is also prone to a wide range of conditions, which makes seeking treatment when you require it equally important. Here at the SKINSCAR Clinic, we offer several dermatology treatments, all delivered by an experienced team of doctors and consultant dermatologists. Read on to discover the conditions we regularly treat with our personalised care plans…

Acne

Acne is more than just a problem for teenagers. Due to hormonal changes and excess oil production, acne symptoms show themselves across a broad selection of age groups, making it a common condition here in the UK. Its effects however are more than skin deep.

As well as causing the formation of unsightly pimples, blackheads, whiteheads and cysts, acne can have a negative impact on the patient’s mental and emotional health. We work with you to remedy and relieve both the physical and mental fallout of acne with a tailored treatment plan.

Eczema

Another common skin condition that affects around 10% of adults in the UK and 1 in 5 children is eczema.

Whatever stage of life symptoms develop at, you don’t have to suffer in silence. Our specialists help to relieve and treat mild to severe eczema. We consider all causes and triggers to uncover long term solutions, and keep the skin moisturised and flare-ups to a minimum.

Psoriasis

While less widespread than eczema, psoriasis is a skin condition that causes a lot of discomfort. Contrary to popular belief, psoriasis symptoms go beyond scaly, dry and cracked skin. Many psoriasis sufferers experience itching, burning, soreness, thickened or pitted nails, and even joint pain and swelling due to their condition.

Again, we work with you to explore your treatment options, reducing inflammation and alleviating pain or discomfort.

Hair loss

Hair loss is another area in which we specialise; we treat and relieve the symptoms of various hair loss types, including male and female pattern baldness, alopecia areata, and telogen effluvium. Our hair loss treatment options range from medication and hair transplantation to platelet-rich plasma therapy, laser therapy and lifestyle changes.

Nail disorders

Our dermatologists have experience treating several nail disorders, including but not limited to fungal nail infections, ingrown nails, nail psoriasis, paronychia, Beau’s lines, onycholysis, nail trauma and brittle nails.
