Skin treatments from the SKINSCAR Clinic

Considered the largest organ in the human body, the skin is a complex ecosystem that consists of several different types of cells. While its main purpose is simple – it’s there to protect the inside of the body from the outside world – its role goes beyond being a protective barrier.

The skin plays a vital part in the wider body’s immunity, stores fat and water, detects sensations (including pressure, vibration and touch), and aids thermoregulation amongst other things. For all its roles and incredible strength, the skin is more vulnerable than you think. It’s susceptible to a number of ailments, with skin changes causing several problems. Thankfully, we offer various skin treatments here at SKINSCAR Clinic.

Moles are ideal candidates for skin surgery, with these pigmented lesions common and more often than not having no medical significance. Moles can however be cosmetically unappealing or may cause discomfort. We regularly conduct mole removal surgery to provide the results our patients are looking for.

Our specialists don’t just assist with the removal of moles. We offer surgical treatment for the removal of cysts, lipomas, skin tags, warts and verrucas.
