Sound familiar?

You’ve tried the creams. Now try a diagnosis.

“My acne keeps coming back, no matter what I use.”

Because most acne care treats the pimple, not the pattern. Grading, cause-hunting and a staged plan change that.

“Every fairness cream lightens the patch for a month — then it returns.”

Melasma, tan and post-acne marks are three different diseases. They need three different treatments.

Hair fall is a symptom, not a diagnosis. We work up the why before touching the what.

Nº 01

Acne & Acne Scars

Active acne is graded and treated at the root — medical therapy, medical-grade peels and laser where they genuinely help. No one-size kits, no ten-product routines.

For scars, we map the scar types first (rolling, boxcar, ice-pick), then combine fractional Er:YAG resurfacing, microneedling and peels in a staged, photo-tracked course.

Pigmentation & Melasma

Tanning, post-inflammatory marks and melasma behave like three different diseases — so we diagnose before we treat, and explain exactly what your pigmentation is.

Treatment may combine prescription creams, gentle peels and Q-switched laser toning on our award-winning (2017) Fotona StarWalker MaQX, with realistic, strict sun-protection guidance built in.

Hair Loss, Dandruff & Scalp

Hair fall gets a proper medical work-up — pattern assessment, scalp examination and blood investigations where indicated — before any treatment is suggested.

Dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis and other scalp conditions are treated medically first. Regrowth options like PRP and GFC are recommended only where they actually fit your diagnosis.

Nº 04

Warts, Moles & Skin Tags

Every growth is examined — with dermatoscopy where useful — before removal, and anything suspicious is handled the proper medical way, including biopsy when indicated.

Removal itself is quick and precise: radiofrequency or laser under local anaesthesia, with real care taken to minimise marks.
