We can offer treatment for lumps and bumps of a benign nature. We can remove cysts and lipomas, skin tags and milia, as well as many other small lesions such as haemangiomas and moles.

​

We specialise in skin surgery at The Wellfield Skin Clinic. All procedures are carried out by Dr Berry who has been practising in surgical techniques since 2004.

​

A consultation is essential to discuss the method of removal, and we recommend a cooling off period before going ahead with any surgery. Occasionally it may be advised that certain skin lesions are left alone for risk of less preferable scarring. 

​

Increasingly, and more so since the Covid 19 Pandemic, we are offering an informal assessment of skin lesions via photos sent to our clinic coordinator to be reviewed by the doctor. From these we can advise more accurately if we can undertake the surgery, and if a consultation is appropriate. 

​

Our Surgical Packages include aftercare, histology and a follow-up where necessary. Consultations fees are usually £45, and redeemable against the procedure fee. 

​

Please email photos and some descriptions of your skin lesion to our Clinic Coordinator, Georgie Egerton, on info@theskinclinic.com who will discuss your case and come back with the available treatment options and an estimate of costs.

 

We look forward to hearing from you!
