SKIN DISEASES (DERMATOLOGY) and COSMETOLOGY:
The skin is an organ that is open to the formation of diseases due to its constant contact with the external environment. Due to frequent exposure to environmental factors, chemicals, allergens, and similar stimulants in daily life, the emergence of dermatological disorders may be easier. Diseases that may occur in the skin may cause aesthetic and cosmetic problems in some cases, and difficulties that may occur in performing daily functions in some cases. Therefore, dermatological diseases should be treated immediately as soon as they are noticed. In this section skin diseases, venereal diseases, and hair, and nail diseases are treated.
The most modern techniques are used in Cosmetic Dermatology. Spots and scars, especially wrinkles; are treated with peeling, cryotherapy, and filler injections. In addition, derma roller treatments, and face, and hair mesotherapy are performed. Mediglobe recommend affordable, high-quality treatment packages according to your needs.

All Face Filling Applications:
All face filling applications are used to shape the face and jawline, as well as for the treatment of sagging and wrinkles that occur with age. Under-eye light filling applications, nose shaping with filling, barcode lines on the lips, filling of wrinkles, clarification of cheekbones, lip augmentation are the applications in this section. Filling applications are an easy and effective rejuvenation process, and effective results can be obtained in a short time.
Mesotherapy:
Mesotherapy is applied in the treatment of spots and wrinkles on the face, hands and décolleté. The aim is to increase skin brightness and skin quality. Mesotherapy is the technique of giving vitamins and amino acids under the skin with small needles. In addition, mesotherapy is used for the treatment of male pattern hair loss on the scalp, hormonal or postpartum, and stress-related hair loss in women.
Chemical peeling applications:
It is the application of some chemical solutions to revitalize the skin, rejuvenate it, remove stains and improve its appearance. In this treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the skin, which causes the superficial layers to separate and peel off. Acne, black spots, scars caused by acne, small pits, sunburn, age-related wrinkles, spots caused by pregnancy, freckles, and crusty lesions with cancer potential can be healed with chemical peeling.
Skincare:
Skincare for equalization of skin tone, skin rejuvenation, skin lubrication, skin blemishes, and general skin problems are applied by dermatologists. Black spots, skin spots, tone unevenness, and acne are among the most common problems in aesthetics and skin health. The applied skincare treatments provide the skin with a noticeably younger and brighter appearance with a single operation.
Laser skin rejuvenation:
It is a method, applied to keep the skin young and to remove traces of aging. With this method the proliferation of skin and subcutaneous cells, namely collagen and elastin fibers, is ensured. Thus, with the laser energy given, wrinkles are reduced and disappeared, while a significant renewal and rejuvenation are felt on the skin.
Treatment of spots, capillaries, and redness with laser:
Laser treatment can also be used for the treatment of skin spots that occur after sun, age, and pregnancy. The appearance of capillaries that cause redness on the face and body can be improved by laser. The treatment of rosacea disease, which is characterized by facial redness, also gives effective results.
Laser acne treatment:
Laser acne treatment is effective in red inflammatory acne and acne scars. The light sent in the laser needs a target. In the treatment of acne, these areas attract laser light and the laser destroys them. With this method, a more lively and bright skin appearance is obtained.
Laser epilation:
Laser epilation is a permanent method that removes unwanted hair in the body. Laser beams of specially selected wavelengths target the melanin pigment in the hair root. The melanin pigment that absorbs the laser beam heats up and the hair root is destroyed. Men, as well as women, can benefit from this application. Areas treated in men are; the shoulders, back, chest, neck-nape, and cheekbones. Men respond much better to laser epilation because they have thicker and darker hair follicles. The success rate in laser epilation applications is very high.
Laser treatment of varicose veins:
Most patients consult a specialist mostly due to aesthetic concerns, but this is not a cosmetic problem, it is a disease. If varicose veins are not treated, they will gradually turn into more serious circulatory disorders. As the varicose progres, it can cause pain in the legs and feet, fatigue, and difficulty healing wounds when it progresses. In the last stage cases that cannot be treated with laser, a surgical method is applied to remove the vein.
What is a skin biopsy?
A skin biopsy is a routine, usually outpatient procedure where a dermatologist or specialist removes a small sample of skin—using local anaesthetic to numb the area—to examine it under a microscope. It is used to diagnose skin cancers, infections, or inflammatory conditions like psoriasis, with results typically available in 1-3 weeks.
What can a skin biopsy detect?
A skin biopsy involves removing a small sample of skin for laboratory analysis to diagnose conditions that cannot be identified by a visual exam alone, including various types of skin cancer, infections, and inflammatory diseases. It is primarily used to detect skin cancers (melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma), precancerous growths (actinic keratosis), and chronic inflammatory skin disorders like eczema or psoriasis.
What is the most common type of skin cancer?
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common form of skin cancer worldwide, accounting for roughly 75% to 80% of cases. It develops slowly in the deepest layer of the epidermis, typically on sun-exposed areas like the face, head, and neck. While rarely fatal, it can damage surrounding tissue if not treated.
What is the cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy, or cold therapy, is a therapeutic technique that uses extremely low temperatures (often liquid nitrogen or, in chambers, -87°C to -160°C) to destroy abnormal tissue, reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and promote muscle recovery. It is utilized in both localized dermatological procedures (e.g., freezing warts, skin tags) and whole-body sessions for health and recovery.
What is the cryotherapy used for?
Cryotherapy uses extreme cold (liquid nitrogen or argon gas) to destroy abnormal tissues, treat skin conditions, and reduce pain or inflammation. It is commonly used to remove warts, skin tags, and sun spots, treat certain cancers (prostate, cervical), alleviate muscle soreness in athletes, and manage chronic pain conditions like arthritis.
What is the electrocautery used for?
Electrocautery is a surgical technique that uses electric current to heat a probe, which is then used to destroy abnormal tissue, remove skin tumours, remove skin lesions, and control bleeding (haemostasis) by sealing blood vessels. It is commonly employed in dermatology, gynaecology, and general surgery to reduce blood loss and improve surgical precision.
What is mole on skin?
A skin mole (nevus) is a common, usually noncancerous, growth caused by pigment-producing cells (melanocytes) clustering together rather than spreading evenly. They appear as small, dark brown, black, or skin-coloured spots that can be flat or raised, typically developing within the first 30 years of life.
What are the different types of skin moles?
Skin moles (nevi) are common, generally benign growths caused by clustered pigment cells, with types categorized by when they appear and their appearance. Main types include common moles (small, symmetric, uniform colour), congenital moles (present at birth), atypical/dysplastic nevi (larger, irregular borders), and acquired nevi (developed later in life). Monitoring for changes in shape, size, or colour is crucial for health.
What is phototherapy used for in dermatology?
Phototherapy in dermatology uses controlled doses of ultraviolet (UV) light—primarily narrowband UVB—to treat chronic, inflammatory skin conditions by slowing cell growth, reducing inflammation, and calming itching. It is commonly used for psoriasis, eczema, vitiligo, and skin lymphomas when topical treatments fail.
What is mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive, non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses micro-injections to deliver a custom cocktail of vitamins, enzymes, antioxidants, and plant extracts directly into the mesoderm (middle layer) of the skin. Originally developed in France, it is used for skin rejuvenation, reducing cellulite, targeting stubborn fat, and stimulating hair growth.
What is mesotherapy microneedling?
Mesotherapy microneedling, also known as “fractional microneedle mesotherapy,” is a combined, non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses fine, shallow needles to create controlled micro-injuries while simultaneously delivering a tailored cocktail of nutrients, vitamins, and hyaluronic acid directly into the skin. It enhances skin rejuvenation by boosting collagen and elastin production while deeply hydrating and treating specific concerns like fine lines, dullness, and pigmentation.
What is mesotherapy microneedling for hair?
Mesotherapy and microneedling both treat hair loss by stimulating the scalp, but they differ in technique: microneedling uses needles to trigger natural wound-healing and collagen production, while mesotherapy injects specialized nutrient cocktails (vitamins, amino acids) directly into the scalp. Both improve circulation, but mesotherapy is often faster for nutrient delivery, whereas microneedling is superior for collagen stimulation.
What is a chemical peel in dermatology?
A chemical peel is a dermatological procedure where a chemical solution is applied to the skin to exfoliate and remove damaged outer layers, stimulating cellular renewal and collagen production. Used on the face, neck, or hands, it improves texture, treats acne, reduces wrinkles, and lightens pigment, leaving behind smoother, healthier-looking skin.
