Dermatology (dermatologist consultation)
Consultation with a Pediatric and Adult Dermatologist at MM «Dobrobut»
In the modern world, skin diseases are becoming increasingly common. The skin, as a protective barrier of our body, has a fairly large surface area and is the most sensitive to aggressive factors, both external and internal. Therefore, the demand for the services of a doctor who specializes in processes related to skin disorders, namely, a dermatologist, is growing.
A dermatologist is involved in the treatment of diseases and pathologies of the skin, mucous membranes, hair, and nails. At the same time, adult dermatological practice differs significantly from that of a pediatric dermatologist. This is primarily due to the characteristics of children's skin. It is much more sensitive, so almost all pathologies that arise in a child's body directly affect its condition.
At the pediatric clinic MM «Dobrobut», qualified adult and pediatric dermatologists are available, who possess knowledge about the peculiarities of the child's body and treat skin diseases in children, taking these characteristics into account.

Application of Modern High-Tech Equipment for the Treatment of Skin Diseases
The clinics of MM "Dobrobut" are equipped with all the necessary equipment for precise diagnostics and effective treatment of skin diseases. One modern method that has proven effective in the treatment of many dermatological conditions is UVB phototherapy at 311NM.
Phototherapy is the safest non-invasive method of treating and preventing chronic skin diseases. In the children's outpatient clinic "Dobrobut," the UVB 311NM device manufactured by Philips is used for phototherapy. 311NM is the wavelength at which the rays of this part of the spectrum contain the maximum amount of "therapeutic" ultraviolet (UV) and the minimum amount of UV that can cause side effects.
Narrowband UVB has a highly pronounced biological effect, providing local immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory action. The narrowband phototherapy method can be used in the treatment of children from the age of 5 (in Ukraine, phototherapy is allowed for children from the age of 12), as well as pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers. Phototherapy is often the treatment of choice for these patient categories, as the intake of certain medications or even the use of some ointments may be contraindicated or restricted.
Using phototherapy, we treat:
- psoriasis;
- parapsoriasis;
- vitiligo;
- atopic dermatitis;
- itchy skin;
- lichen planus.
Advantages of Narrowband Phototherapy:
- reduction of relapses of chronic diseases;
- prevention of new rashes;
- faster onset of therapeutic effect;
- decreased use of hormonal (corticosteroid) ointments, creams, lotions, etc.;
- phototherapy sessions last on average from 1 minute at the beginning of the course to 12-15 minutes at the end.
The phototherapy course includes:
- determination of skin phototype to calculate the treatment course;
- 2-4 phototherapy sessions per week;
- a follow-up consultation with a specialist every 2 weeks.
The phototherapy course lasts for 20-30 sessions, and a noticeable positive effect occurs after just 5-7 sessions.
An individualized approach to treating each patient
By applying an individualized approach to the treatment of every young patient and creating the most favorable conditions for their recovery, maximum treatment effectiveness is achieved. The dermatologist will conduct an examination, gather history, and create an optimal treatment plan for each child.
