The diseases involving the skin and the mucous membrane come under the Department of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprology. The STDs and leprosy are the two other major disorders. Various dermatological diseases manifest themselves in the form of an emergency. Diseases like drug reactions, Steven Johnson’s syndrome, Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) etc. require round the clock emergency care which is provided by the Dept. of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprology. Certain chronic dermatological diseases have a profound psychological and social impact. We provide the latest cosmetic service to the patients with the help of three different types of lasers, derma abrader and an armory of chemical peels. Other services like PUVA therapy, wood’s lamp examination, minor OT procedures (comedone extraction, milia enucleation, electrocautery) are also available at the department.
