Medical dermatology
We specialise in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases, the human body’s largest, most interesting and most complex organ. This includes the treatment of hair, nails and mucous membranes. We can also detect internal diseases that are sometimes visible on the skin.
Our daily activities include:
- Dermatological check-ups
- Screening, treatment and follow-up of skin cancers
- Mole mapping
- General dermatology
- Paediatric dermatology
- Sexually transmitted infections and venereal diseases
- Localised excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) of the armpits and hands hyperhidrosis
- Phototherapy
TREATMENT OF EXCESSIVE SWEATING BY BOTOX INJECTIONS®
Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, affects 3% of the population. In the vast majority of cases, this excessive sweating is not related to a pathology and is localized to the armpits or palms. Hyperhidrosis affects self-confidence, social comfort, emotional well-being, productivity at work and clothing choices. Studies show that Hyperhidrosis disrupts quality of life in a similar way or more than other dermatological conditions.
How does Botox® works?
Botox® temporarily blocks stimulation of the secretion of the sudoral glands. This treatment has significantly improved the management of patients with Hyperhidrosis in the armpits or palms. It is simple, accurate, fast, effective and improves the patient’s quality of life. Botox® helps people with excessive sweating but also those who want more comfort in the summer, for example.
What are the benefits of treatment?
An efficacy start is observed after about 1 week with a reduction of 80% to 90% of perspiration over an average duration of 6 to 10 months. Le Botox® permet donc une diminution drastique de la sudation, une amélioration rapide de la qualité de vie et un regain de confiance en soi. The recovery of perspiration in the initial state is gradual.
How does the treatment take place?
The treatment, very well tolerated, consists of a series of superficial micro-injections using an ultrafine needle in the dermis, every 2 cm approximately. The session lasts 15-20 minutes.
What are the contraindications?
Botox injections® are contraindicated for myasthenia gravis, pregnancy, breastfeeding and in combination with the taking of aminoglycosides.
RECONSTRUCTION BY FLAP SURGERY
RECONSTRUCTIONS BY OTHER COMPLEX TECHNIQUES
TOTAL SKIN GRAFTS
NAIL TUMORS
INGROWN NAILS
Dermatosurgery
Dermatosurgery is the use of surgery to investigate and treat various skin conditions. The aim of any skin surgery is to obtain the best therapeutic, functional and aesthetic outcome.
We primarily perform:
- Biopsies for diagnostic purposes
- Excision of skin cancer
- Excision of benign skin lesions for comfort or cosmetic reasons
- Skin reconstruction by flap surgery
- The total skin grafts .
- Reconstructions by others complex techniques
- Nail surgery (ingrown nails, nail tumours, nail biopsies)
Our operating and sterilisation rooms are accredited by the Swiss authorities for outpatient procedures and are equipped with modern infrastructure.
We are also accredited to perform surgery at Hirslanden Clinique La Colline
Cosmetic
The skin is our body’s sensory and protective envelope, an interface with the outside world. A reflection of our internal biology and our lifestyles, its health and appearance inevitably affect our social, emotional and professional relationships.
We offer the following cosmetic treatments for the skin’s appearance:
- Treatment of wrinkles with botulinum toxin
- Treatment of wrinkles and loss of volume with fillers (hyaluronic acid)
- Chemical peels
- Correction of pigment spots
- Cosmetic removal of moles and other benign lesions related to skin ageing
- Platelet-rich plasma treatment (PRP) for skin rejuvenation and hair loss
TREATMENT OF EXPRESSION WRINKLES BY BOTOX® INJECTIONS
The wrinkles of the upper face, like the wrinkles of the lion between the eyebrows, the forehead and the contour of the eyes (goose paws) are the consequence of repeated contractions of the muscles of the face and a loss of elasticity of the skin. They settle down progressively, sometimes even before 30 years already and harden the general appearance of the face.
How does Botox® works?
Botox® or botulinum toxin is a purified protein used in medicine since 1978. It provides controlled relaxation of the injected muscle in a focused, temporary and reversible manner.
What are the benefits of treatment?
Botox® will have the effect of gently smoothing the skin, giving you a younger, more rested, less severe or caring appearance. In addition, regularly practiced, these injections will prevent the inevitable worsening of wrinkles. Botox® also makes it possible to raise too low eyebrows.
The effects of treatment are felt after 10 days. To avoid over-correction and to maintain a natural appearance, low standard doses are used in the first session; a little retouching may sometimes be necessary.
How does the treatment take place?
The doctor will analyse the face taking into account your mimics and dozing the product in such a way as to respect the expressiveness of the face, without giving a frozen look.
The treatment, very well tolerated, consists of a few superficial micro-injections using an ultrafine needle in specific locations. The session lasts 20-30 minutes. Well-mastered, Botox® is a light, fast and not painful act.
What are the contraindications?
Botox injections® are contraindicated for myasthenia gravis, pregnancy, breastfeeding and in combination with the taking of aminoglycosides.
FILLING OF WRINKLES AND HOLLOW BY HYALURONIC ACID
Over the years, the subcutaneous fat tissue of the face tends to diminish. This loss of volume of natural facial reliefs will create fine lines, wrinkles and folds. Thus, the signs of time appear and it is common to feel a discrepancy between the physics and the dynamism of our personality. Hyaluronic acid in the form of gel will restore the volumes of the face and correct these signs of skin ageing.
What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the skin that captures and retains the water giving structure. It comes in the form of a flexible and viscoelastic transparent gel synthesized in the laboratory, perfectly biocompatible and biodegradable. Injected locally, it will fill the wrinkles and restore the lost volumes.
What can be treated?
Most often, hyaluronic acid is used to gently attenuate Naso-genial grooves (from nose to mouth) to the bitter folds (to the corners of the lips) and to redraw the curved lip. It also improves the wrinkles of the Chin, the contour of the mouth and the eyes. Its action is also used to redraw reliefs such as cheekbones, hollow cheeks or correct depressed scars.
How does the session take place?
A previously applied anestenant cream is often offered for maximum comfort. Hyaluronic acid also contains an anesanting, the injections are relatively unpainful. The gel is injected using a fine needle and then an ice pack is applied. At the lip level, local anesthesia is performed to make the treatment more enjoyable.
What are the aftermath after the injections?
The results are immediately visible. Small redness and slight edema of short duration are possible. Small hematomas may appear and can be masked without problems. If necessary, a complementary session can be made a few days later. The effect of filling lasts on average 12 months and the treatment can be repeated according to the needs.
CHEMICAL PEELS
We use in our Center a superficial peeling that allows to give a shine to your skin. It acts by smoothing your skin texture, homogenizing its complexion, tightening pores, decreasing sebum and correcting small imperfections.
We use a Peel based on TCA (trichloroacetic acid). For optimal results, it takes 4 peeling sessions spaced of around 7 days.
The peeling takes place in ambulatory and lasts 15 min. The patient can resume normal activity immediately after. A sensation of itching, tightness or cooking of the skin appears for a few minutes. Slight and brief redness are possible. In the days that follow, a transitional desquamation will appear and be makeup with the usual products.
Strictly avoid any sun exposure in any form (natural or UV in the cabin) throughout the treatment that takes place in several sessions and up to 4 weeks after the last session. Always apply a very high protection sunscreen (factor 50+).
CORRECTION OF PIGMENTED SPOTS
Pigmented stains due to skin ageing and Sun alterations can be easily treated with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy. The areas that can classically benefit from this treatment are the face, the back of the hands, the neck and the cleavage but other locations are possible.
In practice, the dermatologist focuses on each stain the nitrogen which has the effect of freezing them superficially and destroying the pigment without leaving a scar. After a phase of redness and very superficial Crouts, the stains disappear or fade in 15 days.
COSMETIC REMOVAL OF MOLES
PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP)
What is PRP?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is isolated from the blood of the patient itself, and re-injected after eliminating red and white blood cells by centrifugation. PRP contains many growth factors that stimulate the formation of collagen and support tissue in the event of fine lines, scars or skin ageing.
What can be treated?
For the rejuvenation of the skin, the classic sites are the face, the lower eyelids, the neck, the cleavage, the back of the hands. For weakened and atrophied mature skin, the forearms are also treated.
In case of hair fall one can stimulate the maintenance of hair and sometimes even induce a good regrowth with transformation of a fine down in mature hair.
How does the session take place?
After a simple blood test, the specimen is put into a centrifuge. The PRP thus obtained is then injected into a few superficial micro-injections using an ultrafine needle. An anesthetizing cream can be applied before. Classically, three sessions at a one-month intervals are initially recommended, followed by a maintenance treatment every 1-2 years according to the indication and according to the condition of the skin, in order to maintain the result.
What are the aftermath after the injections?
After the sessions, small raised redness and crusts are visible at injection sites, which can last 1-3 days, easy to camouflage if necessary. Superficial bruises are possible. It is therefore recommended to provide remote treatment (min. 10 days) before a significant social event.
When do the effects appear?
The skin gradually improves and the results progress for 2-4 months after each session since it takes time to form the support tissue in response to growth factors. The results may vary from one person to another depending on age, skin thickness, treated areas and indication.
What are the contraindications?
No absolute contra-indication exists for PRP injections, since it is an extract of the blood of the patient itself that is injected: no risk of allergies or intolerance.
