Chronic venous insufficiency with or without varicose veins significantly increases risks for potentially deadly deep vein thrombosis (clots) and pulmonary embolism:

• Duplex ultrasound vein mapping
  Detailed mapping of the venous network of legs and, if needed pelvis, for diagnostic and treatment purposes

• • Liquid and foam sclerotherapy of visible leg veins
    Injections of a medication which seals the diseased vessel either small thread veins or larger varicose veins. The procedure is practically painless and may be performed with and without ultrasound guidance

• • Foam sclerotherapy of varicose vein under ultrasound guidance

• • Radiofrequency thermal ablation of varicose veins in local anesthesia
    The most effective and safest way of treating larger diseased veins; long-term follow-ups support the high efficacy (96%) of the method. The procedure may be performed safely under the local anesthesia

• • Miniphlebectomies of varicose veins (removal of bulging veins through small incisions requiring no sutures)
    Removal of visible, large, bulging veins done in the local anesthesia through small cuts in the skin which heal spontaneously and do not require any stitches.

• Compression and medical therapy

• Eczema and other inflammatory skin diseases
• Autoimmune skin diseases
• Allergic skin diseases: systemic and contact urticaria, contact dermatitis
• Detailed testing of allergic contact dermatitis
• Hair and nail diseases

• Atopic eczema and related disorders
• Allergy tests relevant to skin diseases (epicutaneous and prick tests)
• Genetic disorders with skin manifestations
• Skin colour changes
• Infectious skin diseases

Reliable diagnosing of benign and malignant skin tumors with digital follow-ups and whole-body photography. A complete removal of malignant tumors using microscopically-controlled techniques so that all margins of a lesions are examined (a form of complete circumferentialperipheral and deep margin assessment) – it is very important for tumors on the head and neck, hands and lower legs, feet.

• Skin cancer diagnostics (including dermoscopy and mole mapping)
• Skin cancer removal with special techniques for complete surgical margins control (3D histology, “slow” Mohs’ technique)
• Nail surgery
  Diagnostic biopsies and surgical treatments of many nail diseases including ingrown nail, moles and other tumors of nail unit are our specialty.
