Skin Conditions
During your consultation with us, we take time to get to know your concerns as well as treatment goals. It is important to recognise various skin conditions.
Acne scars
Acne scarring can sometimes develop as a complication of acne. Any type of acne spot can lead to scarring. Acne scar can be treated by a number of treatments at The Doctors Laser Clinic.
Ageing
While you can’t control your age, you can slow the decline of ageing with smart choices along the way. From the foods you eat and how you exercise to your skincare regime. We offer a number of treatments to prevent premature ageing and reverse signs of ageing on the skin and body.
Blemishes
A blemish is any type of mark, spot, discoloration, or flaw that appears on the skin. Blemishes on the face may be unsightly, but most are benign and not life-threatening. Some blemishes, however, can signal skin cancer, so it is always best to get them checked by a Doctor. We are a Doctor led clinic.
Broken Vessels
Broken blood vessels on the face are enlarged blood vessels that occur just beneath the surface of the skin. The resulting red, web-shaped appearance gives them their common name, spider veins.
Crow's Feet
Crow’s feet are wrinkles at the outer corner of the eyes. They resemble the feet of a crow—hence the name. Unlike wrinkles or expression lines on other areas of the face, crow’s feet can appear to look deeper or more pronounced on the skin . Some of the leading causes of crow’s feet include UV exposure and the loss of collagen and elasticity that come with age.
Dark Circles
Dark circles under the eyes can make a person look tired and older than they actually are. Under eye circles can be treated with tear trough fillers. A tear trough filler is an injectable treatment that’s used to add volume beneath the eyes.
Gummy Smile
Gummy Smile is a phenomenon that when some people smile, their upper lip elevates too far above their upper teeth, exposing gums and producing an unattractive smile. A gummy smile can be treated with Botox at The Doctors Laser Clinic in Norwich.
Keratosis
Keratosis is a common, harmless skin condition that causes dry, rough patches and tiny bumps, usually on the upper arms, thighs, cheeks or buttocks. The bumps generally don’t hurt or itch.
Lines and wrinkles
Botox or Anti-wrinkle treatments are used to significantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment can be used on a variety of areas throughout the face such as crow’s feet, forehead lines and frown lines.
Pigment Stains
Pigment stains such as age spots are small, dark patches caused mainly by exposure to the sun, and therefore appear on exposed areas: face, hands and arms. Melasma or chloasma appear in the form of dark, irregular patches on the face or arms.
Rosacea treatment
Rosacea is a common skin condition that causes redness in your face. Some symptoms include flushing and redness in the center of your face, visible broken blood vessels, swollen skin, sensitive skin, stinging and burning skin, dry, rough, and scaly skin.
Smoker's Lines
Smoker’s lines, or lip lines, are tiny wrinkles that form on the skin between the upper lip and the nose. Smoker’s Lines can be treated with filler to add volume that has been lost.
Stress Urinary Incontinence
Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) is when urine leaks out with sudden pressure on the bladder and urethra, causing the sphincter muscles to open briefly. With mild SUI, pressure may be from sudden forceful activities, like exercise, sneezing, laughing or coughing.
Sun Damage
Every time you go outdoors without sun protection or use a tanning bed, ultraviolet (UV) light damages your skin. With time, this damage builds up and you see changes to your skin, which can make you look years older than you naturally would.
Thread Veins
Thread veins are a common problem and occur in about half of adults. These are very fine dilated veins lying in the skin. They come from normal veins in the skin which grow much bigger than their usual size. They often occur near the ankle, over the inside of the knee and outside of the thigh.
Unwanted Hair

We use the Soprano Ice, a world renowned laser leaving smooth, hair free skin skin from almost any part of the body.

Vaginal Dryness
Vaginal dryness is when your vagina is less lubricated than normal. It’s often caused by a change in your hormone levels. Symptoms of vaginal dryness include a sore and itchy vagina, pain during sex and needing to pee more than usual.
Vaginal Laxity
Vaginal laxity occurs when the vaginal and introital (opening) tissues stretch as a result of childbirth or ageing. Laxity leads to loss of lubrication in the vaginal area, inability to attain an orgasm, and decreased sensitivity during intercourse.
Volume Loss
Volume loss occurs with age and occurs when the face fat that was once evenly distributed around the eyes, cheeks, forehead, temples, and mouth shifts and diminishes. Dermal fillers can restore lost volume in key areas.
Acne
Acne is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It often causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples, and usually appears on the face, forehead, chest, upper back and shoulders. Acne is most common among teenagers, though it affects people of all ages. There are few long term proven light therapy solutions for acne so our emphasis is on treating post-inflammatory scarring and blemishes.
Skin Tags
Skin tags are benign skin growths that are generally harmless and often appear around the neck and sholders.
Stretch Marks
Stretch marks are a common skin complaint for both men and women and are caused by weight gain or loss, or pregnancy.
Enlarged Pores
Large pores are a common problem. We have multiple treatment options here at The Doctors Laser Clinic
Jowls
Jowls have the potential to affect most people at some time in their lives. We have treatment solutions for this common issue at The Doctors Laser Clinic
Thinning Skin
Thinning skin is a natural part of skin ageing. It does not mean that you cannot do anything about it.
