Dermato Surgery

Radio Frequency

Radio Frequency (RF) technology is a non-invasive treatment used in dermatology surgery for skin tightening, wrinkle reduction, and the treatment of various skin conditions. RF energy works by delivering heat to the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting tissue regeneration. This process helps improve skin elasticity, reduce sagging, and enhance the overall texture of the skin. RF is commonly used to treat fine lines, acne scars, and skin laxity, as well as to promote smoother, firmer skin. It’s a safe and effective alternative to surgical procedures, offering minimal discomfort and no downtime. RF treatments are customizable to meet individual needs, making it a versatile solution for both facial and body contouring, resulting in a rejuvenated, youthful appearance with long-lasting results.

Vitiligo Surgeries

Vitiligo surgery is an option for patients with persistent, widespread vitiligo that has not responded well to medical treatments. Surgical procedures are designed to restore pigment to the affected areas of the skin. The most common techniques include Skin Grafting (transplanting healthy pigmented skin to depigmented areas) and Melanocyte Transplantation (transplanting melanocytes, the cells responsible for pigmentation, to depigmented patches). Another method, Autologous Epidermal Cell Suspension, involves cultivating the patient’s own skin cells in a lab and then applying them to the affected areas. These procedures are effective in achieving more uniform pigmentation, though results may vary depending on the extent of vitiligo and the individual’s response. Vitiligo surgeries are typically considered when other treatments have not yielded satisfactory results and are performed by experienced dermatological surgeons to ensure optimal outcomes with minimal scarring.

Acne Scar Surgery

Acne scar surgery is a specialized procedure aimed at improving the appearance of scars left behind by severe acne. There are several surgical techniques used to treat different types of acne scars, including subcision, punch excision, and skin grafting.

Subcision involves inserting a needle beneath the scar to break up the fibrous tissue, promoting collagen production and smoothing the skin.
Punch excision is used for deep, pitted scars, where the scar tissue is removed and the area is sutured for a smoother surface.
Skin grafting may be performed for larger or more severe scars, where a healthy piece of skin is transplanted to the scarred area.

These surgeries help to significantly reduce the appearance of acne scars, improving skin texture and appearance.

Skin Biopsy

A skin biopsy is a medical procedure where a small sample of skin tissue is removed for examination under a microscope to diagnose skin conditions, infections, or cancers. It is commonly used to identify skin cancers like melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, or squamous cell carcinoma, as well as other skin disorders such as psoriasis, eczema, or infections. There are different types of skin biopsies, including shave biopsy (removing a thin layer of skin), punch biopsy (removing a small cylindrical sample), and excisional biopsy (removing a larger section of tissue). The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia, causing minimal discomfort. The biopsy results help guide treatment decisions, whether for benign or malignant conditions, and assist dermatologists in managing chronic skin diseases. It is a quick and effective method to ensure accurate diagnosis and proper care.

Nail Surgeries

Nail surgery is a medical procedure used to treat various nail conditions that cannot be resolved with conservative treatments. It is commonly performed for conditions such as ingrown nails, nail infections, traumatic nail injuries, and fungal nail infections. One of the most common types of nail surgery is nail avulsion, where a portion or the entire nail is removed to treat an infection or injury. Another procedure, matrixectomy, involves removing part of the nail matrix (the growth area of the nail) to prevent the nail from growing back, often used for recurrent ingrown nails. Nail surgeries are typically performed under local anesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort during the procedure. After surgery, proper care and follow-up are necessary to prevent infection and promote healing. These procedures can provide lasting relief and improve the overall health and appearance of the nails.

Post Trauma Scar Surgery

Post-trauma scar surgery is a specialized procedure aimed at improving the appearance and function of scars resulting from injuries, burns, or other traumatic events. The goal is to minimize scarring, restore normal skin function, and enhance the cosmetic outcome. Various techniques are used, depending on the type, size, and location of the scar. Scar revision surgery involves removing the old scar tissue and re-aligning the skin to create a more aesthetically pleasing result. For raised scars, such as keloids or hypertrophic scars, treatments like steroid injections or laser therapy may be incorporated alongside surgery to flatten and soften the scar. Flap or graft procedures might be necessary for larger or more complex scars, where healthy skin from another area of the body is used to cover the damaged tissue. Post-surgery care, including moisturizing and sun protection, is essential for optimal healing and scar reduction.

Keloid Surgeries

Keloid surgery is a treatment designed to reduce or remove keloid scars, which are thick, raised scars that grow beyond the boundaries of the original injury site. Keloids can develop due to trauma, surgical incisions, or even minor skin irritations. Surgical options for keloid removal include excisional surgery, where the keloid is carefully removed, and steroid injections may be used before or after the procedure to prevent the keloid from reoccurring. Laser therapy is often combined with surgery to smooth the skin and reduce pigmentation. In some cases, cryotherapy or radiotherapy may be used in conjunction with surgery to minimize the chances of recurrence. Keloid surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia, and post-operative care such as pressure garments, silicone sheets, or corticosteroid applications is necessary to ensure proper healing and prevent the keloid from returning.

Ear Lobe Repair

Ear lobe repair is a surgical procedure designed to correct or reconstruct damaged or torn ear lobes, commonly caused by trauma, accidents, or the overuse of heavy earrings. The procedure is often required for individuals who have experienced stretched or split earlobes due to the weight of earrings or other injury. During the repair, the damaged tissue is carefully removed, and the ear lobe is reshaped and sutured together to restore its normal appearance. The surgery is typically quick and performed under local anesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort. After the procedure, patients are advised to follow proper post-operative care, including avoiding jewelry and keeping the area clean to prevent infection. Ear lobe repair surgery can restore the aesthetic appearance of the ear lobe and allow for the safe use of earrings once the area heals.

Ear Piercing

Ear piercing is a cosmetic procedure where a small hole is created in the earlobe or the upper ear cartilage to allow the insertion of jewelry, such as earrings. It is one of the most popular body modifications and is often performed for aesthetic or cultural reasons. The procedure is typically done using a sterile needle or piercing gun to minimize the risk of infection or complications. Local anesthesia may be applied to ensure minimal discomfort during the process. After piercing, it’s essential to follow proper aftercare instructions, such as cleaning the area with antiseptic solutions and avoiding unnecessary touching or pressure on the piercing to prevent infection. The healing time for ear piercings varies but usually takes about 6-8 weeks for the earlobe and 3-6 months for cartilage piercings. Regular monitoring and proper hygiene are essential for a successful healing process and to avoid complications.

Micro Derma Brasion

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that exfoliates the skin to remove dead skin cells and promote cell regeneration. Using a specialized device, tiny crystals or a diamond-tipped wand is used to gently exfoliate the outer layer of the skin, improving texture, tone, and overall appearance. This procedure is commonly used to treat fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation. Microdermabrasion stimulates collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity and giving the skin a smoother, more youthful look. It is a quick procedure that requires no downtime, making it suitable for individuals with busy schedules. After treatment, the skin may appear slightly red or sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn, but these effects typically subside within a few hours. Regular treatments can help maintain healthy, glowing skin and reduce the visible signs of aging.

Fat-Fillers

Fat fillers, also known as fat grafting or lipofilling, is a cosmetic procedure where fat is harvested from one part of the body (usually from areas like the abdomen, thighs, or flanks) and injected into areas with volume loss, such as the face, hands, or buttocks. This technique is often used to correct facial wrinkles, deep lines, hollow cheeks, or sagging skin, providing a natural, long-lasting enhancement. Since fat is the patient’s own tissue, the risk of allergic reactions or rejection is minimal. The procedure involves liposuction to remove fat, which is then purified and injected into targeted areas. Fat fillers provide a more natural look and feel compared to synthetic fillers, and the results can last longer. Some of the injected fat may be absorbed by the body over time, so multiple sessions may be required for optimal and lasting results.

Bio-Fillers

Bio-fillers are a type of injectable cosmetic treatment made from biocompatible materials designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Unlike synthetic fillers, bio-fillers are often derived from natural substances, such as hyaluronic acid, collagen, or platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which are more easily accepted by the body. They are used to treat a variety of aesthetic concerns, including deep wrinkles, fine lines, hollow cheeks, and sagging skin. These fillers stimulate collagen production, promoting long-term skin rejuvenation and a natural, youthful appearance. Bio-fillers are biodegradable, meaning they are gradually absorbed by the body over time, offering a safe and temporary solution for facial volume restoration. The procedure is minimally invasive, requires little downtime, and results in a smooth, rejuvenated appearance without the need for surgery. Regular maintenance treatments can help sustain the youthful effects.

Scar Revision Surgeries

Scar revision surgery is a procedure aimed at improving or minimizing the appearance of scars resulting from injuries, surgeries, burns, or other skin conditions. The goal is not to remove the scar entirely but to make it less noticeable by altering its size, shape, or texture. The surgery may involve techniques such as excision, where the scar tissue is removed and the skin is carefully stitched together, or skin grafting, where healthy skin is transplanted to the affected area. Laser treatments, steroid injections, or dermabrasion may also be used in conjunction with surgery to further enhance the results. Scar revision surgeries are typically performed under local anesthesia and can be tailored to the type and location of the scar. Post-operative care is essential for proper healing, and results can take time to fully develop. This procedure helps patients regain confidence by improving the cosmetic appearance of their scars.

Excisional Surgers

Excisional surgery is a medical procedure in which a surgeon removes a specific tissue or growth from the body, such as a tumor, cyst, mole, or scar, through a careful incision. The goal of excisional surgery is to completely remove the abnormal tissue while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This technique is commonly used for the removal of skin lesions, cancers, or benign growths, as well as for scar revision procedures. During the procedure, the surgeon will make an incision around the area to be removed, excise the tissue, and then close the wound with stitches. Depending on the size and location of the excision, local or general anesthesia may be used. After surgery, the removed tissue is typically sent for further analysis to check for signs of cancer or other abnormalities. Proper post-operative care is important for preventing infection and promoting healing.

PRP For Ulcers & Scars

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is an effective treatment for healing ulcers and improving scars by utilizing the body’s own healing properties. During the procedure, a small sample of the patient’s blood is drawn, processed to concentrate platelets, and re-injected into the affected area. The high concentration of growth factors in PRP accelerates tissue regeneration, enhances blood flow, and reduces inflammation, promoting faster healing of chronic ulcers. For scars, PRP stimulates collagen production, improving skin texture, reducing scar visibility, and enhancing elasticity. This natural, minimally invasive treatment is particularly beneficial for various scars, including post-surgical, acne, and trauma-related scars, offering a safe and effective solution with minimal downtime and long-lasting results.
