Dermatology: the health of your skin, hair and nails
Mole checks with dermoscopy, acne, psoriasis and eczema — medical and cosmetic dermatology in Torre del Mar.
What dermatology treats
Dermatology looks after the health of your skin, hair and nails. It covers everything from very common conditions, such as acne or dermatitis, to complex diseases like psoriasis or skin cancer. Skin doesn't just reflect physical health: it also matters to emotional wellbeing. That's why the service combines clinical dermatology with cosmetic dermatology, for anyone who wants to improve the appearance of their skin with safe treatments and medical judgement.
The dermatology clinic sees patients at our medical centres, with medical insurance or privately, and each patient gets a plan suited to their case, with ongoing follow-up and clear guidance.

When to book an appointment with the dermatologist
Don't wait if a mole changes shape, size or colour, if a new lesion appears that won't heal, or if a flare-up of acne, eczema or psoriasis doesn't improve with the usual measures. Regular mole checks are the main tool for preventing melanoma: catching a lesion early makes a real difference to its treatment.
