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.
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.

Our skin surgery treatments don’t end there. Along with the skin surgery options detailed above, our experts regularly undertake skin tag, wart and verruca removal to improve the lives of our patients. Removal is typically carried out via surgical excision, under local anaesthetic, while recovery is generally equally straightforward.

Far from the undertaking it used to be, most skin surgery is now routine, with those requiring treatment finding the solutions they need and the cosmetically pleasing outcomes they deserve. Here at SKINSCAR Clinic, we offer several different types of skin surgery treatments, including the following procedures…
Lipoma removal
For fatty lumps, or lipomas, removal is also an option. Lipomas are common, harmless, cosmetic issues that can only be remedied privately. Without removal, they are unable to go away on their own. There is also the risk of your lipoma growing in size, which can cause further everyday problems. That’s why our lipoma removal service is here to help!

Here at SKINSCAR Clinic, we offer several different types of skin surgery treatments, including the following procedures…
Mole removal
While most moles are harmless, their unsightly appearance affects individuals in many different ways. These skin growths have the potential to impact your confidence levels, making their removal extremely empowering for the affected person.
Our mole removal option is a popular skin surgery treatment at our clinic. Most lesions are removed by excision under local anaesthetic, with our specialists performing the outpatient procedure in one of our purpose built operating theatres. Following skin surgery, you’ll be fully supported too, with our guidance aiding the healing process and minimising the risk of scarring.
Cyst removal
Other growths that can prove bothersome are cysts. These small, painless bumps are in fact soft tissue swellings, which makes them harmless but intrusive, especially if they form in a visible area like the face. Cysts can also become infected due to further trauma, inadequate cleaning or the onset of other pre-existing skin problems. This can result in pain, swelling, redness, discharge, fatigue and even fever.
Cyst removal can prevent such complications, as well as improve the unsightly appearance of these growths. Like mole removal, cyst removal surgery is carried out under local anaesthetic, with a small incision made to extract the cyst. During surgery, the cyst sac is also removed to minimise the chance of regrowth.

As the largest organ of the human body, accounting for 15% of your overall body weight in total, the skin has several important roles to play. It acts as a protective covering and barrier to safeguard internal structures, keep germs and other contaminants out, and regulate your body temperature.

With such tasks and coverage, it should come as no surprise that the skin is prone to various health conditions. Here at SKINSCAR Clinic, we offer a selection of dermatology services to help you remedy several skin conditions and address your specific concerns.

Psoriasis Treatment
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin condition. It causes the accumulation of skin cells, with the rapid build-up causing thick, scaly patches to form on the skin.

Like eczema, there’s no cure for psoriasis, but there are numerous treatments to explore to make life more comfortable as a psoriasis sufferer. These include topical treatments, phototherapy, oral medication, biologic therapies, systemic treatments and lifestyle modifications.

Hair loss Treatment
The skin on your scalp needs the right care too, and this is just one aspect of the hair loss treatments we have available at SKINSCAR Clinic. Whether your hair loss is caused by genetics, hormonal fluctuations, a specific medical condition, stress, nutritional deficiencies or your hairstyling habits, we can devise an appropriate treatment plan.

Acne Treatment
While more synonymous with teenagers, acne is a common skin condition that affects individuals of all ages at all stages of life. It is the result of the hair follicles becoming clogged with oil and dead skin cells, with the formation of blemishes and subsequent, long term scarring troubling for many acne sufferers.

We offer a variety of acne treatments to remedy and relieve pimples, blackheads, whiteheads and cysts. From over the counter and prescription topical treatments and oral medications to personalised skincare routines and lifestyle changes, our experts are here for you.

Eczema Treatment
With 1 in 5 children and 1 in 10 adults experiencing eczema symptoms here in the UK, finding relief for dry, itchy, inflamed skin is a quest for so many. This common skin condition unfortunately has no cure, yet several treatments are available from our team to help manage symptoms successfully.

Read on to discover more about the different types of skin treatments available right here at SKINSCAR Clinic.

Skin Surgery
While often viewed as a skin treatment at the more extreme end of the scale, our skin surgery options are varied, wide ranging and particularly popular. From mole and skin tag removal to the excision of lipomas, cysts and warts, our skin surgery treatments have helped individuals from all walks of life.
These lumps and lesions are common and generally harmless, yet their development can cause mental and emotional distress to make them more than cosmetic concerns. With their treatment and removal, your confidence levels can be restored.
Others find moles, cysts, lipomas and warts uncomfortable additions, but with our help and surgical procedures, removal and recovery are simple and straightforward.

Skin cancer
Whether you’re seeking a first or second opinion, or exploring our skin cancer options for a speedier service, our expertise will prove invaluable. We offer skin cancer treatments from both of our locations, with our Cambridgeshire and Harley Street clinics providing solutions for basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and melanoma.
While not strictly a skin treatment, our skin check and cancer screening is a crucial part of our service. It offers a comprehensive examination and assessment of moles and any other concerning lesions, with digital recording and treatment planning coming as standard.

The cooler months may be officially upon us, but sun safety should still be on your mind. Contrary to popular belief, your skin needs protection from the dangers of the sun all year round, not just during summer, which means there’s no wrong time to introduce a sun safe skincare regime.

Accessorise with sun safety in mind
What you wear is another way to beat the heat and protect your skin from the sun. Covering up is a great defence, while UV protective clothing is also gaining popularity around the world. Whether your aim is to protect against the winter or summer sun, a hat, scarf or sunglasses can help shield your most sun sensitive parts.

Look to the long-term
Safeguarding your skin from the sun is a long term commitment that should be a serious part of your daily beauty routine. Build better habits like avoiding sunbeds, drinking more water, eating a balanced diet that’s rich in antioxidants and getting your skin checked regularly to put skin health first every time.

The cooler months may be officially upon us, but sun safety should still be on your mind. Contrary to popular belief, your skin needs protection from the dangers of the sun all year round, not just during summer, which means there’s no wrong time to introduce a sun safe skincare regime.

Apply the right product in the correct quantity
Correct use of sunscreen is another essential when protecting your skin from the sun. Go for a broad spectrum product that’s at least SPF 30 or higher, it’ll safeguard your skin against the rays that age (UVA) and burn (UVB). Many people use SPF moisturisers, especially in winter, to protect and hydrate at the same time.

Your sunscreen should be reapplied every couple of hours for the best results. It is recommended that you use an adequate amount to cover the face – this is about 1/3 of a teaspoon..

The cooler months may be officially upon us, but sun safety should still be on your mind. Contrary to popular belief, your skin needs protection from the dangers of the sun all year round, not just during summer, which means there’s no wrong time to introduce a sun safe skincare regime.

Remember, sunscreen isn’t just for holidays
The dangers of the sun are common knowledge, especially when it comes to those fine lines and wrinkles! Yes, sun damage causes premature ageing amongst other things, a fact that has seen the use of daily sunscreen explode in recent years.

If you’re not wearing sunscreen every day, why not? Applying SPF consistently is a must for your health and wellbeing. As well as preventing sunburn and reducing skin cancer risk, it protects the skin’s delicate protective barrier to strengthen defences from the inside out.

Skin cancer remains one of the most prevalent cancer types here in the UK, with the 100,000 new cases reported annually making it the 5th most common cancer. With recent reports that melanoma skin cancer cases in particular are at an all-time high, knowing more about your options post-diagnosis is important.
At SKINSCAR Clinic, we provide several treatments for skin cancer.
Melanoma
Melanoma is the most serious skin cancer, with its severity rated across four stages. With this, early detection and treatment is essential to stopping the spread and achieving a cancer-free result. Surgical removal is the first step, with additional surgery often required upon further analysis of the affected tissue. A margin of normal skin surrounding the melanoma is also removed as a precaution.
Prevent and detect with screening
Early detection is integral to successful treatment, whether you are concerned about Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC), Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) or melanoma. That’s why, alongside our skin cancer treatments, we also provide a skin check service, which can be used periodically to prevent and detect skin cancer and other issues.
