Dermatology

Our Dermatology Department offers unmatched dermatological services to patients of all ages. These include treatments for everyday conditions related to skin, hair, nails and also the mucous membranes by our skincare specialists. The dermatological services offered not only help in treating existing problems but also in improving the appearance of the patient’s skin, hair and nails.

Our Dermatology Department offers treatments on an outpatient and inpatient basis for:

– Eczema
Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by dry, itchy and red patches. It often flares due to environmental triggers, allergens, or stress, and is commonly seen in children but can persist into adulthood.
– Psoriasis
Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition where skin cells multiply rapidly, forming thick, red plaques with silvery scales. It can affect any part of the body and is often associated with joint pain (psoriatic arthritis). Triggers include stress, infections, and cold weather.
– Lichen Planus
Lichen planus presents as flat, purple, itchy papules on the skin and mucous membranes. It is thought to be immune-mediated and can affect the nails and scalp, sometimes causing hair loss or nail ridging.
– Acne and Pimples
Acne is caused by blocked hair follicles due to excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. It ranges from blackheads and whiteheads to inflamed pustules and cysts, often leading to scarring if untreated.
– Keloids
Keloids are abnormal, raised scars that extend beyond the original wound. They occur more frequently in darker skin tones and can be itchy or painful, often forming after injury, surgery, or acne.
– Scars
Scars form as part of the natural healing process after skin injury. They can be flat, raised (hypertrophic), depressed (atrophic), or pigmented, and may respond to treatments like laser therapy or microneedling.
– Pigmentation Disorders (Melasma, Suntan, Acne Marks, Dark Circles)
These conditions result in uneven skin tone due to sun damage, hormonal changes, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, or lifestyle factors like lack of sleep or stress. Treatments include topical agents, chemical peels and laser therapy.
– Depigmentation (Vitiligo, Leucoderma)
Vitiligo and leucoderma are characterised by white patches due to the loss of melanocytes. These conditions are often autoimmune and may be progressive, requiring treatment with phototherapy, topical steroids, or surgical options.
– Blistering Disorders (Pemphigus, Bullous Pemphigoid)
Autoimmune disorders causing fragile blisters and erosions on the skin and mucous membranes. Pemphigus tends to be more severe and affects younger individuals, while bullous pemphigoid is more common in the elderly.
– Drug Reactions (Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis)
Severe allergic reactions to medications that lead to skin peeling, blistering, and mucosal involvement. These are medical emergencies requiring hospitalisation and supportive care.
– Infections (Fungal Infections, Cutaneous Tuberculosis, Leprosy, Herpes Zoster, Warts, STDs)
Skin infections can be caused by various pathogens:
– Fungal: Ringworm, athlete’s foot and candidiasis.
– Tuberculosis & Leprosy: Chronic bacterial infections with skin and nerve involvement.
– Herpes Zoster: Reactivation of the chickenpox virus, causing painful blisters.
– Warts: Caused by HPV.
– STDs: Manifestations like genital warts, herpes and syphilitic rashes.
– Vascular Disorders (Stasis Dermatitis, Vasculitis)
Conditions resulting from poor circulation or blood vessel inflammation. Stasis dermatitis causes leg swelling, itching and dark patches, while vasculitis leads to red or purple spots due to vessel inflammation.
– Collagen Disorders (SLE, Scleroderma)
Autoimmune diseases affecting connective tissue.
– SLE (Lupus): Causes rashes, joint pain and systemic involvement.
– Scleroderma: Leads to skin thickening and hardening, and can involve internal organs.
– Hair Disorders (Hair Fall, Male and Female Baldness, Alopecia Areata, Scarring Alopecia, Dandruff)
Hair concerns range from common hair fall and androgenic alopecia (baldness) to autoimmune hair loss (alopecia areata). Scarring alopecia leads to permanent loss. Dandruff involves scalp flaking due to seborrheic dermatitis.
– Nail Disorders (Nail Infections)
Fungal, bacterial, or viral infections can deform or discolour nails. Common issues include onychomycosis, paronychia and nail dystrophies linked to psoriasis or eczema.
– Alopecia Areata, Psoriasis and Eczema
These chronic inflammatory or autoimmune conditions may coexist, affecting both skin and scalp, often leading to itching, scaling, and hair loss.
– Acanthosis Nigricans

Characterised by dark, velvety skin in body folds, often linked to insulin resistance, obesity, hormonal disorders or certain medications.
– Seborrheic Keratosis
Benign, wart-like skin growths that appear with aging. They have a stuck-on, waxy appearance and usually require no treatment unless for cosmetic reasons.

Minor surgical procedures
– Skin Biopsy
A minor procedure to remove a small sample of skin for laboratory analysis, aiding in the diagnosis of skin conditions such as infections, autoimmune diseases, or skin cancers. Performed under local anaesthesia with minimal discomfort and quick healing.
– Intralesional Injections
Medications such as corticosteroids are injected directly into skin lesions (like keloids, acne cysts, or alopecia areata) to reduce inflammation and promote healing. Safe, effective and often part of multi-session treatment plans.
– Radiofrequency Cautery
A high-frequency device used to remove skin tags, moles, warts, and benign growths with precision. The procedure is quick, causes minimal discomfort, and leaves minimal scarring—ideal for cosmetic concerns.
– Chemical Cautery
Application of specialised chemical agents to treat small skin lesions like warts, corns, or certain pigmentation spots. It causes controlled tissue destruction, allowing healthy skin to regenerate.
– Nail Avulsion
Surgical removal of part or all of a toenail or fingernail, usually done to treat severe fungal infections, ingrown nails, or nail bed tumours. Performed under local anaesthesia with proper aftercare for healing.

– Cyst Excision
A minor surgical procedure to remove epidermoid or sebaceous cysts. The cyst is carefully excised along with its sac to prevent recurrence. Quick recovery with minimal scarring.
– Lipoma Excision
Removal of benign fatty lumps (lipomas) through a small surgical incision. Performed under local anaesthesia with minimal downtime and usually a very small scar.
– Mole Removal
Moles are removed either for cosmetic reasons or to rule out malignancy. Techniques include excision, laser, or radiofrequency, depending on mole type, location, and depth.
– Cryotherapy (for Warts, Keloids)
Liquid nitrogen is applied to freeze and destroy abnormal skin tissues like warts, skin tags, and keloids. The treated area crusts and falls off within days—safe, quick, and effective.
– Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP involves injecting your own plasma (rich in growth factors) into the skin or scalp to stimulate collagen production and hair growth.
For Hair: Boosts hair thickness, reduces hair fall, and revives dormant follicles.
For Face: Improves texture, firmness, and radiance (also known as the “vampire facial”).

– Microneedling, Dermaroller & Dermapen
These devices create controlled micro-injuries on the skin to boost collagen and improve scars, wrinkles, and texture.
Microneedling with Dermapen: Offers precise, adjustable depth for targeted treatment.
Dermaroller: Ideal for larger surface areas.
Can be combined with serums or PRP for enhanced results.
– Scar Revision Surgery
Surgical techniques aimed at minimising or removing unsightly scars caused by injury, acne, or surgery. Options include excision, subcision, Z-plasty, and laser resurfacing—selected based on scar type and location.
– Vitiligo Surgery
Surgical treatments for stable vitiligo include:
Non-Cultured Melanocyte Transfer: Transfers melanocytes from healthy skin to depigmented patches.
Dermabrasion: Prepares the skin to receive grafts or melanocytes.
Punch Grafting: Tiny skin grafts are transferred to vitiligo areas for repigmentation.
Ideal for patients with stable vitiligo unresponsive to medical therapy.
– Ingrown Toenail Surgery
A minor procedure to remove the offending edge or entire nail causing pain, swelling, and infection. Permanent solutions involve matrix destruction to prevent recurrence—quick and typically done under local anaesthesia.

– Chemical Peels
Chemical peels use safe, medical-grade solutions to exfoliate the skin, removing dead cells and stimulating cell turnover.
They are tailored to treat specific concerns such as:
- Glow & Skin Rejuvenation: Mild peels refresh dull skin, promoting a healthy, radiant look.
- Acne & Scars: Salicylic and glycolic peels reduce active acne, prevent breakouts, and fade post-acne marks.
- Pigmentation: Peels like TCA or lactic acid target melasma, suntan and uneven tone.
- Anti-Ageing: Deeper peels reduce fine lines, stimulate collagen and improve texture.
- Maintenance: Regular light peels help maintain clear, youthful skin with minimal downtime.
Treatments are quick, and results are progressive with repeated sessions. Peels are chosen based on skin type and concern, ensuring safety and effectiveness.
– Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive procedure that uses fine crystals or a diamond-tipped wand to gently exfoliate the top layer of skin.
– Instant Glow: Removes dull surface cells and boosts microcirculation for immediate brightness.
