Skin Concerns
Treatment planned around your diagnosis
From medical dermatology to advanced energy-based procedures, every plan begins with a detailed dermatological assessment.
Medical Dermatology
Diagnosis and long-term care of psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema, fungal infections, urticaria and other skin conditions.
Acne & Adult Acne
Clearer skin begins with the right diagnosis — personalised care for teenage, adult-onset and hormonal acne.
Acne Scars
Scar mapping and a personalised, staged plan — never a standard package or a single machine.
Pigmentation & Dark Circles
Dark circles are not always caused by lack of sleep. Treatment begins by identifying what is creating the darkness.
Skin Ageing & Tightening
Non-surgical tightening with HIFU and radiofrequency microneedling, chosen for the layer that needs treatment.
Stretch Marks & Other Scars
Different scars need different strategies — from atrophic scars and stretch marks to raised scars and keloids.
Comprehensive Care
Comprehensive Dermatology, Hair and Scalp Care
Advanced technology guided by medical expertise

01
Advanced Skin and Aesthetic Dermatology
Technology selected according to your skin concern
We provide dermatologist-led treatment for acne scars, pigmentation, dark circles, stretch marks, skin laxity and other medical and aesthetic skin concerns. After detailed assessment, an individual treatment plan may include:
- Fractional CO₂ laser
- Q-switched laser
- HIFU
- Radiofrequency microneedling
- Carboxytherapy
These technologies may be used individually or in carefully planned combinations, depending on the diagnosis, skin type, severity and treatment goals.
02
Specialised Hair and Scalp Treatments
Every Scalp Tells a Story. An Expert Dermatologist Knows How to Read It.
Hair loss treatment begins with a detailed clinical assessment and trichoscopy. Laboratory investigations are advised only when clinically indicated. Depending on the diagnosis and stage of hair loss, the treatment plan may include:
- MetaCell Technology
- i-PRF and growth factor concentrate
- Mesotherapy
- Low-level light therapy
- Follic OxyBoost Therapy
Not every procedure is appropriate for every patient. Treatment selection is based on the cause of hair loss, disease activity, medical history and individual requirements.
Not sure which treatment is suitable for you?
