Based on the experience gained in university dermatological clinics and dermato-oncology centers in Germany, we offer the full range of prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of benign and malignant skin tumors at the Dermatologicum clinic:

• Skin cancer prevention with Digital Mole Mapping: “Prevention is better than cure” also applies to skin cancer (melanoma, basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma, etc.). Using modern digital systems, we provide quick and painless mapping of the subject’s moles and suspicious skin lesions. The data is analyzed and stored in electronic form so that annual monitoring and early diagnosis of any changes are possible. In the hands of the experienced dermatologists of our practice, mole mapping is the most powerful diagnostic weapon for the early diagnosis and treatment of skin cancer.

• Dermatological surgical removal of skin tumors: In our clinic we provide all the possibilities of dermatosurgical removal of benign and malignant skin tumors without the need for referral to a plastic surgeon or hospital. The removal of both simple moles and advanced forms of skin cancer is carried out with the aim of achieving the best aesthetic result by utilizing plastic wound closure techniques, which were acquired in leading European dermatological centers in Germany. The procedures are performed using local anesthesia and patients can go home after the procedure without the need for hospitalization.

• Cosmetic Dermatology: In addition to medical indications, our clinic is a model center for cosmetic dermatology. We provide services for the removal of cysts, lipomas, moles, papillomas and other benign skin tumors, always with the best final aesthetic result in mind. With modern cosmetic dermatology techniques, we successfully treat disfiguring scars, keloids and acne scars.

• Aesthetic removal of skin lesions with laser: In the field of cosmetic dermatology, we provide the removal of benign skin lesions with the most modern laser systems. With the laser, warts, seborrheic keratoses, actinic keratoses, papillomas, xanthelasmas, infectious termite lesions and warts are easily, quickly and painlessly removed.

• Dermato-oncology: Skin cancer is the most common form of human cancer. The risk varies from precancerous lesions such as the very common actinic keratoses to metastatic melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma or cutaneous lymphomas. Our clinic applies the European guidelines for the treatment and postoperative monitoring of dermato-oncological patients.
  
  
  

• Ultrasound of Lymph Nodes and Skin Tumors: Ultrasound of lymph nodes and skin tumors is a cornerstone in the modern diagnosis, staging and monitoring of dermato-oncological patients. Dermatologist Andreas Merkoureas is certified in the use of ultrasound for diagnostic and dermato-oncological purposes, thus providing the most modern dermatological ultrasound services. The use of ultrasound is also indicated for the diagnosis of a variety of benign subcutaneous tumors (such as lipomas), or enlarged lymph nodes, thus ideally complementing the diagnostic quiver of our practice.
