New Dermatology
Within recent years the science of skin diseases and their treatment has changed
fundamentally. Simple use of creams has evolved into a much deeper understanding
of molecular factors, environmental influence and sociological implications.
The environment, particularly the effect of UV-light exposure is playing an
ever more important role, from which allergies, premature aging and skin tumors
can result. Therefore, in the complete approach to skincare the knowledge of
these aging mechanisms and aesthetic considerations play an increasingly important
role.
This has led to the development of new and refined methods of prevention, on
going care and treatment, including surgical techniques and the use of
light and lasers, as well as minimally invasive techniques to rejuvenate the
face, like peels, Botox® and filler products that can add volume back to
the skin creating a soft natural refreshed look.
Effective co-ordination of a wide variety of available diagnostic and
therapeutic modalities is our part in improving your skin-wellbeing.
DERMATOLOGIE AM KURFÜRSTENDAMM was founded in 1998. The clinic
was designed to be very aesthetically pleasing and welcoming whilst highly
efficient by Swiss architect Max Dudler. State of the art technology
and a specially trained medical aesthetician are a central part of many
treatment options.
