Age Spots (solar lentigines)
These are very common in older adults, they present themselves as small dark areas on your skin, varying in size. They usually appear on the face, hands, shoulders and arms; areas that are exposed to the sun
Blood Spots (Cherry Angiomas)
These are totally harmless, cherry red vascular blemishes. They can be oval or round with a raised or smooth appearance. They are most common on the torso, arms, legs, and shoulders. Their cause is unknown but there does appear to be a link to age, often appearing from age 30
Dermatosis papulose nigra
These are smooth, dome shaped, brown/black papules which are most commonly seen on the cheeks, neck & upper chest. It is a common disorder which develops in adolescence, affecting black & sometimes Asian adults
Milk Spots (Milia)
These are tiny white hard lumps containing keratin (protein that makes up the structure of the outer layer of skin) which lie superficially under the surface of the skin. Their cause is unknown although they may be hereditary or due to your skin-care routine. They are often associated with dehydrated skin, where a build up of excess skin cells can occur that trap sebum beneath the surface of the skin
Moles
I can reduce the size of the mole to make it look more cosmetically pleasing & if pigmented, the colour can often lighten. Repeated treatment may be required. (please note a note from your GP, to confirm your mole is healthy, will be required before treatment can commence)
Sebaceous cyst (steatoma)
These are caused by a retention of sebum under the skin that can be blocked by an overgrowth of skin on the surface. They usually appear where there are more sebaceous glands such as the face, chest and back. They can vary considerably in size from a small pea to an egg.
Sebaceous hyperplasia
These are enlarged sebaceous glands that appear as small yellow bumps on the forehead or cheeks, and are more common at middle age plus. They form over time as a result of damage, leading to an ongoing problem with over-productive oil glands. These damaged oil glands can become up to 3mm in diameter and become clogged
Seborrhoeic Keratosis (seborrhoeic wart)
These are very common, especially in older adults and are harmless, non-infectious lesions. They usually do not cause symptoms but they came sometimes itch or become inflamed. They usually appear as a brown, black or light brown growth that has a waxy, scaly, slightly elevated appearance. They can be found on the face or body and may occur singly or be very numerous. Their cause is unknown, although exposure to the sunlight may be a factor
Skin Tags (fibroepithelial polyp)
These are very common fibrous growths which vary in size, shape, attachment & colour. They develop as raised growths, often appearing with a neck like a mushroom. They are usually found in areas of friction such as the underarm, folds of the skin, under the breasts, the groin or around the neck
Spider Naevus
This is a central dilated blood vessel with smaller capillaries radiating from it, much like the legs of a spider. They usually appear on areas such as on the face or the décolletage. They can be found singly or gather in groups & can be caused by external trauma to the skin
Syringoma
These usually appear during puberty or in adults and are skin coloured small round lumps that form under the surface of the skin. They are caused by an excessive growth of sweat gland cells, and are usually found on the eyelids and around the eyes, although other areas of the body can be affected
Thread Veins
These are permanently dilated capillaries with very thin walls which constantly dilate and constrict. The vessels can loose their elasticity and become permanently dilated as we get older. Their cause includes ageing, smoking, alcohol, sun exposure, temperature extremes, hormones, fragile skin, sports and hereditary factors
Warts
These are caused as a result of a viral infection and appear firm with a rough surface. They vary in size and are usually found on the hands, but can present themselves on the face and body & can develop singly or in groups. There are various types of wart including Common warts, Plane warts, Filiform warts and Verrucas
Xanthelasma
These are deposits of fatty material (cholesterol fat) under the skin and range in size from 6mm to more than 7cm in diameter. They are associated with a symptom of metabolic disorders such as diabetes or high cholesterol. These lesions often appear yellow or red in colour, usually occurring in clusters
