Specialist FMH Dermatology

As a dermatologist, I am fascinated anew every day by the health and well-being of the skin. That is why it is particularly important to me to devote enough time to my patients, to listen to them attentively and to advise them on an individual basis. Through my many years of work at various Swiss hospitals, I have extensive experience in classical dermatology and in a range of aesthetic treatments. It is close to my heart not only to promote the health of your skin, but also to help you feel comfortable in your skin.

Areas of focus
Classical dermatology: psoriasis, neurodermitis, rosacea, acne, skin cancer screening and autoimmune diseases. Surgical removal of skin tumours, laser treatments and aesthetic dermatology.

Focal points of treatment

Couperose and rosacea

If you suffer from couperose or rosacea, you are not alone! Couperose is one of the most common skin conditions in women and men - although women are more likely to be affected.

Acne and Acne Scars

Acne is no trivial matter! However, you no longer have to accept living with acne or acne scars. Today, there are effective methods available to treat both conditions.

Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a genetic, chronic inflammatory, benign skin disease. Any part of the skin can be affected, as can mucous membranes, joints and nails. At Swiss Derma Clinic, we aim to support patients and improve their quality of life until they no longer have any symptoms.

Neurodermitis

We use our expertise in both personalized therapy and extemporaneous preparations to treat neurodermatitis, also known as atopic dermatitis or atopic eczema. Treating this chronic, non-contagious, mostly itchy skin rash is one of our specialities.

Skin cancer treatment

Swiss Derma Clinic has its own certified operating theatre for the surgical removal of malignant skin tumours. It also has an array of state-of-the-art techniques – including laser, PDT and cryosurgery – for the gentle treatment of precancerous skin lesions. We deliver single-source care all the way from diagnosis to therapy and aftercare.

Autoimmune diseases and the skin

The skin is often affected by autoimmunity and may be attacked by autoimmune diseases. Examples include lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, dermatomyositis, lichen sclerosus, sarcoidosis, blistering skin diseases, vasculitis, and vitiligo, and alopecia areata (patches of hair loss).
