The Dermatology, Venereology & Leprosy department offers clinical services for patients suffering from sexually transmitted diseases, leprosy and dermatological problems.
The physicians at the department focus on cosmetic & dermatologic surgery, photo dermatology and contact dermatitis.
The everyday surgical procedures carried through in the department comprise cryotherapy (for treating benign skin tumours such as keloids and warts), electrodessication and biopsies to diagnose skin diseases. By and large, the physicians of the department do regular chemical peeling on an outpatient basis. Moreover, the physicians carry out advanced surgeries, including hair transplantation for avoiding male baldness, blister grafting for leukoderma, dermabrasion for acne (pimple) scarring, punch grafting and split thickness grafting to cure chronic leg ulcers.
