By combining advanced diagnostic techniques with state-of-the-art treatments, we provide comprehensive care designed to relieve discomfort, promote healing, and restore confidence in our young patients.
Empathy Meets Expertise We understand that children may struggle to articulate their symptoms or express their fears. This can make medical consultations a challenge for families. Our paediatric dermatologists are specially trained to navigate these situations with empathy and patience, ensuring that young patients feel safe and comfortable during examinations and treatments. This compassionate approach, combined with our clinical expertise, helps us build trust with both children and their families.
Innovative Treatments at Avisena For children with allergies affecting their skin, we provide the Allergy Panel 51 Testing, which uses a small blood sample to test for 51 allergens, including food, latex, pollens, moulds, and insect bites. This comprehensive test helps our doctors identify specific triggers and develop personalized treatment plans to address the root causes of allergies. By preventing severe reactions and managing allergic conditions effectively, this service ensures better long-term outcomes for your child’ s health and well-being.
For treatment, we offer Wet Wrap Therapy, a specialized approach to manage severe eczema and other skin conditions. This therapy involves the application of medicated creams followed by a damp layer of clothing or bandages, which soothes the skin, reduces inflammation, and enhances medication absorption. Wet Wrap Therapy is especially effective in providing immediate relief and speeding up the healing process for young patients with persistent skin issues.
We also offer Sitz Bath Therapy, designed to help children with localized skin conditions. This therapy involves soaking the affected areas in warm, shallow water to cleanse and aid wound healing, reduce swelling, pain, and inflammation, and soothe soreness. By relaxing the skin and improving blood circulation, sitz baths help accelerate recovery while providing significant relief and comfort to our young patients.
