Treatments
Specialised care and treatments offered
MICRONEEDLING
A minimally invasive procedure aimed at stimulating collagen production through controlled micro-injuries created by fine needles on the skin’s surface enhancing overall texture and firmness.
PHOTODYNAMIC THERAPY (PDT)
PDT combines photosensitizing agents with specific light exposure to treat various superficial dermatologic conditions through targeted cellular destruction while sparing healthy tissues.
- Diseases managed: Commonly used against actinic keratosis, certain types of acne, superficial basal cell carcinoma, and precancerous lesions caused by sun damage.

LASER HAIR REMOVAL
The use of laser technology has revolutionized hair reduction treatments offering precision and long-lasting results by targeting hair follicles beneath the skin surface.
- Indications: It is ideal for reducing unwanted hair on areas such as face, legs, arms, underarms, and bikini line regardless of hair thickness or color variations within limits.
- Evaluation before treatment: Skin type assessment ensures optimal laser settings catering to individual melanin levels for safety and efficacy.
- Treatment mechanism: Laser emits concentrated light absorbed by pigment in hair follicles impairing future growth cycles without harming surrounding tissue.
- User experience during sessions: Mild discomfort akin to snapping rubber bands may occur; cooling devices minimize irritation during procedure time spanning several minutes per treated area.
- Post-procedure advice: Avoid sun exposure and apply soothing creams; multiple sessions spaced over weeks achieve desired permanent reduction effects gradually improving density over time.
This controlled approach delivers a convenient outpatient method for those seeking reduced hair maintenance burden with minimal downtime involved.
CRYOTHERAPY FOR WARTS
Cryotherapy is a common dermatological technique used to treat benign skin lesions such as warts by applying extreme cold temperatures directly to the affected area.
- Symptoms addressed: Warts caused by viral infections appear as raised, rough growths that can cause discomfort or cosmetic concern.
- Diagnostic steps: Visual examination usually confirms wart diagnosis; sometimes dermatoscopy is employed for further evaluation.
- Treatment details: Liquid nitrogen is sprayed or applied with a cotton swab to freeze the wart tissue causing destruction of abnormal cells.
- Follow-up care: Mild blistering and redness are common; patients are advised on wound care to prevent infection and promote healing.
- Results expectations: Multiple sessions may be required; treated warts typically fall off within 1–2 weeks post-freezing with little scarring risk.
This method provides an effective in-office option for wart removal that is quick and generally well tolerated.
CHEMICAL PEELS
Chemical peels are a widely used dermatological procedure designed to improve skin texture and appearance by removing the outermost layers of damaged skin.
- Causes and symptoms: This treatment targets issues like uneven pigmentation, fine lines, acne scars, and sun damage.
- Diagnosis: Skin assessment helps determine the type and depth of peel suited for individual skin concerns.
- Treatment process: A chemical solution is applied to exfoliate the skin layers, promoting regeneration of new, healthier skin underneath.
- Management: Post-procedure care includes sun protection and moisturizing to support healing and maintain results.
- Expected outcomes: Patients generally notice improved smoothness, clarity, and tone after healing, which may take several days to weeks depending on peel strength.
This minimally invasive approach offers a safe way to rejuvenate the skin with relatively short recovery periods when performed under professional supervision.
