Treatment of skin and nail diseases


Our dermatologists utilize modern diagnostic approaches and technologies to diagnose skin conditions, including early-stage detection. In collaboration with E. Gulbja Laboratory, we conduct analyses for fungal, bacterial, and other infections. Additionally, we perform biopsies, involving the removal of a small piece of skin tissue, when necessary. Based on the analysis results, we prescribe effective treatment to address your specific condition.
 

At FORTEMED Medical Center, our dermatologists go beyond prescribing medications and recommending skincare products. They also collaborate with our in-house cosmetologists to suggest cosmetological procedures for on-site treatment. Our cosmetologists specialize in skincare procedures, while our podiatrists (podologist) handle nail and foot care procedures. This close internal cooperation ensures the best treatment outcomes, as all FORTEMED specialists involved in the process maintain constant communication to address your concerns effectively.

At our medical center, we emphasize a thorough examination of skin formations. Our experienced dermatologists meticulously assess and analyze each skin lesion to determine its nature and the appropriate course of treatment. When it comes to the removal of skin formations, our specialists select the most suitable method tailored to your individual needs and the characteristics of the lesion.
 

At FORTEMED, we use a range of modern technologies and methods to provide effective treatment, including:

Laser technology - is one of the most effective methods for removing various skin formations. It offers precision and reduced trauma during the procedure;

Monocoagulator - this method uses electric current for precise and effective removal of skin formations;

Cryotherapy - cryotherapy equipment employs very cold temperatures to 'freeze' and remove skin growths.

Classical excision - his surgical procedure involves the removal of formations using a scalpel or punch instrument, allowing for further histological examination when necessary.


At FORTEMED Medical Center, we highly appreciate precision, thoroughness, and a personalized approach in high regard when it comes to each patient's skin health. Our objective is to provide you with the utmost quality care and a deep understanding of your skin condition and healthcare requirements. We are ready to help you achieve the best possible results and eagerly await your to visit FORTEMED Medical Center.
 

The treatment of hait diseases

 

Hair loss and scalp damage are not only unpleasant, but both can be not only distressing but also aesthetically unsettling. Nowadays, hair issues are not limited to men; women also face these challenges. These disorders can either be independent conditions or symptoms of underlying diseases. Prompt diagnosis of hair loss is crucial, as it can sometimes lead to irreversible consequences.
 

At the FORTEMED Medical Center, our dermatologists employ diagnostic methods and treatment techniques that have been rigorously tested and recommended by the CHMP and other EU institutions. We are committed to addressing your hair health with the highest standards of care.
 

Following a comprehensive diagnosis that includes classical dermatoscopy and UV screening with Wood's lamp, our specialists determine the appropriate therapy and provide recommendations for lifestyle adjustments during the treatment period. In many cases, our dermatologists can not only halt hair loss but also facilitate hair regeneration.
 

At FORTEMED Medical Center, our dermatologists collaborate with cosmetologists to deliver comprehensive hair loss therapy. This includes the use of mesotherapy, a modern and effective method for preventing hair loss. For more information about the Hair Mesotherapy procedure, please feel free to inquire.
 

Antiaging therapy


The fast-paced lifestyle and harsh external conditions can significantly impact the health and appearance of our skin. It is crucial not to delay the diagnosis of skin conditions, even if there are no obvious visual concerns. A dermatologist can identify early signs of skin aging and recommend suitable care procedures or a comprehensive treatment plan to reduce the signs of aging. If necessary, the dermatologist will refer you to another specialist or recommend the required analyses.
 

The team of dermatologists at FORTEMED consists of young yet experienced specialists who are dedicated to continuous development through participation in congresses, seminars, and practical training sessions. As a result, FORTEMED specialists are always up-to-date with the latest advancements in dermatology and are prepared to apply this knowledge for the benefit of their patients.
 

The duration of a dermatologist's consultation varies depending on the diagnostics and necessary procedures, but on average, it lasts about 30 minutes. During this time, the specialist utilizes a dermatoscope to examine skin formations and performs any necessary procedures to address the patient's concerns.

At FORTEMED Medical Center, we insist that timely and accurate diagnosis is the key to the effective treatment of skin diseases. We have experienced dermatologists who are ready to help you identify and treat various skin problems.
 

We strongly recommend consulting a doctor if you experience any of the following symptoms:

  • Warts and papillomas: These growths may be associated with viral infections and should be investigated and treated to prevent potential complications.
  • Changes in warts and birthmarks or suspected new growths: Alterations in skin growths can indicate various issues, including potentially serious conditions like melanoma.
  • Hair loss and baldness: These symptoms can be linked to hormonal disorders, stress, or other medical conditions.
  • Flaking and ingrown nails: These problems can be related to chronic skin conditions such as psoriasis or infections.
  • Dandruff: While it can be harmless, dandruff can also signal underlying skin problems like seborrhea.
  • Skin discoloration: Changes in skin color can be associated with various diseases, such as vitiligo, or inflammatory processes.
  • Itching, peeling, and swelling of the skin: These symptoms may indicate an allergic reaction, infection, or chronic skin disease.
  • Blackheads: These may be related to acne or other skin conditions that require treatment.
  • Herpes virus: Symptoms of this virus can be uncomfortable and painful, so it is crucial to initiate treatment at an early stage.


Please do not ignore these symptoms to prevent potential risks and complications. At FORTEMED Medical Center, we are fully prepared to assist you in making a timely diagnosis and initiating effective treatment. We hold your health in high regard and eagerly await your visit to our center, where we can together ensure the well-being of your skin health.
 

The causes of skin diseases are diverse, as the skin can be affected not only by external factors but also by issues with the gastrointestinal tract, immune system, and endocrine system. It is crucial not to delay a visit to the dermatologist, as external manifestations of a condition can signal not only skin diseases but also underlying problems with internal organs.
