Dermatology and Venereology

At Ars Medica, located in the heart of North Rome, our Dermatology and Venereology service is dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of skin disorders, as well as conditions affecting the hair and nails.

Our team of experts is equipped to provide comprehensive diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of dermatological conditions, including infectious, inflammatory, allergic, neoplastic, and degenerative diseases of the skin and its appendages.

Our specialists are also skilled in differentiating between pigmented lesions, both melanocytic and non-melanocytic. This includes early diagnosis of skin melanoma and epithelial skin neoplasms, clinical evaluation of skin types, and management of skin aging and photoaging.

With dermatological examination, we offer mole monitoring through epiluminescence to diagnose potential skin neoplasms, including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma.

Common conditions we treat include:

• Psoriasis: An autoimmune condition causing thickening and scaling of the skin, often appearing as red, scaly patches.
• Acne: A skin inflammation characterized by the presence of pimples.
• Erythema: Redness of the skin often due to inflammation or increased blood flow in the affected area.
• Infections: Caused by bacteria, fungi, and parasites.
• Atopic Dermatitis: Also known as eczema, it is marked by itching, redness, and inflammation of the skin.
• Contact Dermatitis: An inflammatory skin condition caused by exposure to irritants or allergens.
• Urticaria: Similar to eczema, it causes itching, redness, and inflammation of the skin.
• Skin Anomalies: Abnormal changes on the skin that can be benign, such as warts, fibromas, and condylomas, or malignant, like melanomas and squamous cell carcinomas.
• Skin Tumors: Pathological changes characterized by abnormal cell growth, including basal cell carcinoma and melanoma.

Prompt recognition of symptoms and consultation with a dermatologist is crucial for timely treatment.

A visit to our dermatology experts is a vital step in diagnosing skin disorders. We emphasize both prevention and treatment, offering targeted care aimed at restoring and maintaining optimal skin health.
