In unseren letzten News haben wir berichtet, dass Dermatologists expect an increase in skin cancer due to climate change and how important good sun protection and skin cancer prevention are sind. Der Schutz der Haut vor den Sonnenstrahlen wird immer noch unterschätzt, Sonnenschutz muss für alle zur Routine werden. Sommer – wie Winter!

Je früher Hautkrebs erkannt wird, desto besser sind die Heilungschancen. Eine regelmäßige Selbstkontrolle der Haut und der Muttermale, um Veränderungen zu erkennen, ist unerlässlich (ABCDE Regel). Treten Auffälligkeiten auf, wenden Sie sich sofort an den Dermatologist Ihres Vertrauens, um die Veränderungen abklären zu lassen. Führen Sie einmal im Jahr bei einem Dermatologen eine mole check or skin cancer screening durch. Wird Skin cancer früh erkannt, lässt er sich mit einer passenden Therapie gut behandeln.

How is skin cancer treated?

There are 2 types of skin cancer:

  • malignant melanoma:the most dangerous type of skin cancer, which originates from the pigment-producing cells of the skin
  • non-melanoma skin cancer (white skin cancer):This includes basal cell carcinoma, actinic keratoses and squamous cell carcinoma.

At JUVENIS, experienced dermatologists examine changes in the skin using dermatoscopy (dermoscope) to rule out abnormalities. If skin changes occur, these are examined histologically in a dermatohistopathological specialist laboratory. The finding is the basis for further treatment options, which are discussed together with the patient.

Different treatment options are available for skin cancer. Dermatologic surgery is one of JUVENIS's focal points and, depending on the diagnosis, can also be performed on an outpatient basis in-house at JUVENIS.

Oberflächliche Tumore, wie aktinische Keratosen (Vorstufen von weißem Hautkrebs), Morbus Bowen und oberflächliche Basaliome (weißer Hautkrebs), werden bei JUVENIS mittels verschiedener Therapieformen behandelt. Dazu zählen Salbentherapie, Kryotherapie, Dermatochirugie oder photodynamic therapy (PDT). This gentle form of therapy specifically destroys tumor cells while sparing the surrounding healthy tissue. At the same time, it is low-pain, provides very beautiful cosmetic results, and also scores with proven long-term efficacy.

Our surgical spectrum includes all benign and malignant skin lesions, such as melanoma (black skin cancer), squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma (basalioma), actinic keratosis, atypical/dysplastic nevus (conspicuous mole), or other rare malignant skin tumors (e.g., fibrosarcoma, Merkel cell carcinoma).

We pay special attention to state-of-the-art surgical and suturing techniques and also provide you with the best possible aesthetic result.
