Private Dermatologist in Haywards Heath

From eczema, psoriasis and rosacea to warts, skin tags, cysts and suspected skin cancer, our consultants diagnose and treat the full range in patients aged 16 and over. Benign lesions can be removed and suspicious ones biopsied without a separate referral.

On-site skin diagnostics, including biopsies, swabs and patch testing, mean a diagnosis can usually be confirmed quickly.

A consultant examines your skin, reaches a diagnosis, arranges any diagnostics needed and sets out a treatment plan, whether that is prescription treatment, minor surgery or ongoing management.

Treatment ranges from topical and oral therapies to cryotherapy, minor surgery and lesion removal. As a guide, procedure fees including hospital fees start from £350 for shave excision, curettage and cautery, £500 for cyst removal, and £775 for skin cancer excision including histology. Your consultant confirms all fees before anything goes ahead.

Consultant-led from day one, with Dr Paul Farrant and Dr Pallavi Gupta covering skin cancer, acne and general dermatology, and holding leading memberships.

The clinic is at Nuffield Health Haywards Heath, Burrell Road (RH16 1UD). No referral is required and waits are typically short.

We see patients aged 16 and over here. Younger patients, and anyone needing hair or scalp care, are seen at our Matlock Road clinic in Brighton.

A new growth, a spot that will not heal, or a lesion that has changed is worth a consultant opinion, because the same visit can both diagnose and treat. Benign lesions such as skin tags, cysts and seborrhoeic keratoses can be removed, and anything suspicious biopsied.

Techniques include minor surgery and cryotherapy, chosen to suit the lesion and to keep any scarring to a minimum.

Appointments can be booked directly at Haywards Heath. Fees are confirmed upfront. Benign lesion removal is typically not covered by insurance unless there is a medical reason such as catching, bleeding or infection.
