FAQ's

Yes, at Apollo Secunderabad, we offer various treatments, such as topical creams, injectables like Botox, dermal fillers, and laser therapy, to address signs of ageing.

It is advisable to see a dermatologist for persistent or concerning skin issues such as acne that doesn't respond to over-the-counter treatments, suspicious moles, persistent rashes, or severe skin conditions like psoriasis or eczema.

Skin tags are small, benign growths that commonly appear on the skin. They are typically soft, flesh-coloured, or slightly darker than the surrounding skin, and often hang off the skin on a thin stalk.

Our dermatologists will provide specific instructions based on your treatment plan and condition. We also encourage regular self-examinations and prompt follow-up for any concerns. Our helpline numbers are always operational and offer immediate assistance in cases of emergencies.

The frequency of skin cancer screenings depends on factors like age, family history, and sun exposure. Generally, individuals with a history of skin cancer or significant sun exposure may benefit from annual screenings.

The preparation varies depending on the procedure. Your dermatologist will provide specific instructions, including any necessary skincare regimen adjustments or fasting requirements.
