Childhood skin diseases

An allergy is a response or hypersensitivity to a substance that would normally be harmless but it produces a reaction in your body.

Skin prick allergy testing scratches the skin and a small amount of the allergens are placed on you.

Paediatric Medicine includes the treatment of children and teenagers.

Our experienced consultants can visually assess skin lesions and (if necessary) scan them using state-of-the-art scanning equipment to analyse and detect even the smallest changes. The procedure is painless, quick and safe.

Many of our hospitals offer surgery for benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous) conditions of the skin.
