We care about your well-being. That’s why we focus on preventing and identifying skin diseases at the earliest possible stage. As a dermatology practice, we are your partner for all skin health-related issues in Frankfurt and we are happy to draw up a therapy concept specifically tailored to you.

Acne

Acne is one of the most common skin ailments and it can appear at any age. Aside from its impacts on your health, acne can also damage your self-confidence. Our aim is to ensure that you can feel carefree and comfortable in your skin.

What is acne?

Acne is a disease afflicting the sebaceous gland follicles, which causes them to produce too much tallow and clog the excretory duct. This creates blackheads. In the face and particularly the forehead area, non-inflammatory and inflammatory skin changes appear in the form of papules, lumps and pustules. Hormonal fluctuations, incorrect diet or cosmetics are some of the many causes of acne vulgaris, which primarily afflicts young people, and acne tarda, which appears later in life. We are well-equipped to establish the exact reason for your issues in every particular case.

Personal acne treatment at Skin & Aesthetic

We take a holistic approach, combining medical and cosmetic treatment, to treating your acne in the long term. In addition to tackling internal causes, our cosmetologists can also remove skin impurities with peeling treatments tailored for your skin.

Exfoliation & cosmetic treatments

We offer conventional peeling treatments with fruit acid as well as with microdermabrasion. This thoroughly removes impurities and prevents them from returning. As part of the process, the top layer of skin (epidermis) is removed, promoting the growth of skin cells.

Neurodermatitis

Neurodermatitis is a chronic skin disease characterised by dry, scaly and irritable skin. The root causes for the disease differ from patient to patient.

In the case of neurodermatitis, the body’s own immune defences react with oversensitivity to harmless substances or triggers, something reflected on the skin as eczemas. Mental strains like stress and worry can also be the triggering factor behind skin diseases. This quickly leads to an interplay of eczema and stress, which can repeatedly trigger each other.

At Skin & Aesthetic in Frankfurt, we analyse the root causes of neurodermatitis and create a personal treatment plan for you. Aside from avoiding known triggers (allergens, stressful situations), treating this condition also includes consistent skin care. UV light therapy or hyposensitisation are additional avenues of treatment in this respect. We are happy to advise you and answer any questions you might have regarding neurodermatitis.

Psoriasis

Psoriasis causes a rash on the skin which is often accompanied by itching and the formation silvery-white flakes of skin. The reason for the scaling of skin in the case of psoriasis is the excessive reproduction of horny skin cells. At Skin & Aesthetic, we’re happy to take the time to advise you as part of a personal consultation. Together, we will find the right course of treatment for you based on your medical history and our thorough examinations.

Rosacea causes changes to the skin on the cheeks, the nose, forehead and chin. There are various stages and courses which this condition can take, with the first stage being referred to as couperose. Rosacea is characterised by small red veins which are primarily visible on the cheeks. For the best aesthetic results, we treat couperose and rosacea with the latest laser technology.
