equip your practice, support your patients

Educating patients and the importance of dermatoscopes

Skin Cancer Awareness Month focuses on the importance of looking after our skin. We know that it’s not just your job as their practitioner, but it’s about educating patients to help ease the burden on you. Skin is the largest organ in the body, and ensuring patients protect their skin from harmful UV rays and educating them about how to perform routine skin checks has never been more important.

Achieve more with the Surtron 120

The Surtron 120 is a diathermy unit designed for minimally invasive surgical procedures. It offers flexibility with its 5 operation modes:

  • Cut – Produces a pure cut, allowing excisions similar to a scalpel.
  • Blend – Combines the pure cut and coagulation modes into one mode. Ideal for operating in a haemostatic field, significantly improving their field of vision and reducing patient blood loss.
  • Forced Coagulation – Creates resistance in the upper most layer of tissue resulting in superficial coagulation. Enables the removal of surface structures without damaging deeper or peripheral tissues as well as cauterising large surface areas quickly when required.
  • Soft Coagulation – Deeper penetration of coagulation. Bleeding vessels can be sealed without carbonisation using the soft coagulation setting.
  • Bipolar (with adapter) – Cauterise vessels during more complex procedures as well as easily removing raised lesions such as skin tags and warts.

Getting Your Patients To Check Their Skin Over The Colder Months...

Getting Your Patients To Check Their Skin Over The Colder Months...

The temperature is dropping – It’s certainly no longer t-shirt and shorts weather! The UK has started layering up as the short, cold, darker days are drawing in. With less sun exposure, it is often this time of year that people begin to ignore and neglect their skin. However, winter can actually be the best time to check it. As we know, skin damage from the summer months doesn’t show up overnight and can sometimes take years to manifest itself. It is important that your patients know that their skin is constantly changing and always vulnerable to dangerous UV rays, even in winter.
