Safe, medically planned skin and nail surgeries performed by a dermatologist. Laser or surgical excision is chosen for cure, safety and cosmetic outcome.
Skin lesions should not be treated blindly. Correct diagnosis and the right choice of laser vs surgery improves safety and reduces recurrence.
Dermatologic surgery is not just removal — it is reconstruction. Cosmetic closure techniques help minimize scars and improve long-term outcomes.
Scar revision improves appearance, texture and symptoms of scars caused by trauma, burns or previous surgery.
Best suited for: wide scars, contracted scars, painful scars, scars limiting movement.
Goal: improvement (not complete scar erasure). For acne-related scars, see Acne Scar Treatments.
Moles should be evaluated before removal.
Excision allows complete removal and histopathology when indicated.
Benign growths commonly seen with age. Laser removal is precise with minimal bleeding and quick healing.
Xanthelasma are yellow cholesterol-rich plaques near eyelids. Surgery is preferred for deeper lesions to reduce recurrence risk and ensure controlled removal.
Corns and calluses develop due to pressure/friction. Surgery is advised for painful, recurrent lesions with a deep core or failed conservative care.
Lipomas are benign fatty swellings. Excision is recommended for increasing size, pain, cosmetic concern, or diagnostic confirmation.
BCC is a common skin cancer on sun-exposed areas (face, nose, ears, scalp, eyelids). Surgical excision with appropriate margins allows cure and histopathology confirmation.
Recurrent or infected ingrown nails are treated with partial nail avulsion and matrix correction under local anaesthesia to help prevent recurrence.
Pincer nails cause painful compression of the nail bed. Surgical correction reshapes the nail and matrix to relieve pressure and restore comfort.
Skin surgery is not just removal — it is reconstruction.
No. The choice depends on lesion type, depth, medical safety and cosmetic outcome.
All procedures can leave a mark, but we aim for minimal scarring using proper technique and cosmetic closure.
When indicated, surgical excision allows histopathological confirmation.
Nail surgery is performed under local anaesthesia and most patients tolerate it well.
When to refer: suspicious skin lesions needing excision/biopsy, recurrent moles, eyelid xanthelasma, symptomatic lipoma, painful corns/calluses, nail surgeries, scar revision and suspected BCC.
