Dermatology

The Dermatology Department at International Modern Hospital (IMH) provides comprehensive medical, surgical, and aesthetic dermatology care for conditions affecting the skin, hair, nails, and mucous membranes. As the body’s largest organ, the skin plays a vital role in overall health and well-being. In the UAE, where intense sun exposure, heat, humidity, and environmental factors significantly impact skin health, specialized dermatological care is essential.

IMH offers evidence-based, patient-centered dermatology services for individuals of all ages, from children to older adults. The department manages a wide range of acute and chronic skin conditions, while also providing preventive and cosmetic dermatology services. Each treatment plan is carefully tailored to ensure clinical safety, effective results, and long-term skin health.

Medical dermatology forms the foundation of care. Dermatologists diagnose and treat conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis, vitiligo, rosacea, fungal infections, bacterial and viral skin infections, urticaria, contact dermatitis, pigmentary disorders, and autoimmune skin diseases. Chronic conditions are managed through structured treatment plans aimed at reducing symptoms, preventing flare-ups, and improving quality of life.

The department also addresses skin allergies, hair and scalp disorders, and nail conditions. Concerns such as hair loss, alopecia, dandruff, scalp infections, and nail abnormalities are evaluated thoroughly to identify underlying medical or lifestyle factors and guide appropriate treatment.

Skin cancer screening and early detection are key priorities, especially in sun-intensive regions. Dermatologists perform comprehensive skin assessments and minor procedures such as mole removal, cyst excision, wart treatment, and skin biopsies using safe, sterile techniques.

Cosmetic dermatology services focus on pigmentation, acne scars, uneven skin tone, sun damage, and early signs of aging, with an emphasis on natural-looking results. Preventive care includes guidance on sun protection, skincare routines, hydration, and lifestyle habits.

The Dermatology Department at IMH works closely with other specialties to ensure holistic care. Our goal is to restore and maintain healthy skin through ethical, evidence-based, and compassionate dermatology services, enhancing both medical outcomes and patient confidence.
