Actinic keratosis can be effectively treated at Binsina Skin & Laser Clinic, where expert care and advanced therapies ensure healthier, revitalised skin.
Condition
Actinic Keratosis
Overview
Actinic keratosis, also known as solar keratosis, is a rough, scaly patch on the skin caused by prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays. Commonly found on sun-exposed areas like the face, hands, scalp, and arms, it often appears as red, pink, or brown spots with a dry texture.
While typically harmless, untreated lesions can develop into squamous cell carcinoma, a type of skin cancer. This condition is more common in fair-skinned individuals or those frequently exposed to sunlight or tanning beds. The risk increases with age, especially in outdoor workers or sun enthusiasts.
Interestingly, actinic keratosis affects around 23% of people over 60 in the UK. Preventative measures include wearing sunscreen, protective clothing, and avoiding excessive sun exposure.
Affects of Actinic Keratosis
The appearance of actinic keratosis, with its rough, scaly patches, can cause self-consciousness and concern about skin health. Its visible nature often impacts confidence, especially when located on the face or other prominently exposed areas.
At Binsina Skin & Laser Clinic, actinic keratosis is treated using advanced, effective methods tailored to individual needs. Treatments include LED phototherapy and the Cutera XEO Laser, targeting sun damaged skin while promoting healthy regeneration. Our trained practitioners may also recommend topical therapies or cryotherapy to safely eliminate affected cells. With a focus on patient care, our clinic ensures treatments are safe, effective, and minimally invasive, restoring healthy, smooth skin while addressing the risks associated with actinic keratosis.
