Skin Problems and Conditions
Our skin is the biggest organ of the human body and as such it can have many minor complaints as well as some more serious issues. Its healing capabilities are amazing given the fact that most scars are a result of overhealing to ensure that any injury is more than sufficiently dealt with.
The main concern around most skin problems is that they are often cosmetically embarrassing and make us feel self concsious. This can affect our confidence and self esteem especially with longstanding chronic conditions that may just about settle down only to flare up a few days or weeks later.
Common problems we encounter are lines and wrinkles due to the natural ageing process or accelerated premature ageing that is more common in fair skin individuals or those exposed to high UV sun as a child or adolescent.
We also have many patients who are concerned about their moles and unsure of what to look for or have had conflicting advice in the past. All our patients get a full body mole check body including the soles of the feet, toenails, webspaces and mouth as well as the buttock and genital areas as any part of skin can be eligible to get a skin cancer.
Any patients that require mole removal for either aesthetic or potentially malignant lesions are performed in our specialist skin clinics.
Patients who suffer with underarm excessive sweating are able access our stop sweating clinics to find a remedy for their problem. Botox injections into the armpit are so effective that we can guarantee to stop the sweaty patches.
Loss of volume in peoples faces can often make them look tired and gaunt especially if they have lost weight either through stress or intentionally via lifestyle changes. Most patients would rather keep the fat on their faces however this is one area where weight loss affects first. To combat this we can use products to restore the fuller appearance of the face through injectable products such as restylane and sculptra.
Thread veins or spider veins are common in people who has a family history of redness and facial veins or caused by over exposure to sunlight or smoking. They can be a nuisance with people often asking 'what's that red spot?' or words to that effect. Treatments nowdays for thread vein removal are safe and effective as long as they are done in a professional medical setting.
Warts on the fingers, hand and feet are not only disfiguring but can also be painful. Other sites that warts occur are the face and genital areas. They are often caused by a virus that is picked up via contact with people who already have it and treatments involve creams, freezing, laser and surgery according to how thick and resistant they are.
Skin tags are harmless fleshy bits of skin that can be very annoying and are often occur in large numbers on the neck, armpits and groin.
