Birthmark removal in Memorial Göztepe Hospital
About the clinic
Birthmark removal at Memorial Göztepe Hospital in Istanbul helps patients remove unwanted skin pigments using advanced laser technology. The dermatology department uses tools like the Q-Switch laser to treat spots and pigmented lesions. The hospital belongs to the Memorial Health Group, which was the first in Turkey to receive JCI accreditation.
Advanced Skin Diagnostics
Before any treatment, doctors perform a detailed skin assessment to check the nature of the birthmark. The hospital uses AI-supported digital dermoscopy to look closely at skin layers. Patients also have access to the Observ 320 skin analysis system. For those with many marks, the clinic provides whole-body mole mapping. These tools help specialists monitor skin changes and plan the removal process safely.
Laser Removal Methods
The dermatology unit uses the Q-Switch laser for most birthmark removal procedures. This technology targets the pigment in the skin without damaging the surrounding tissue. It works by sending short pulses of light energy into the birthmark. The body then naturally breaks down and clears the pigment over time. This method is effective for various pigmented lesions and spots.
Specialized Care Team
Dermatology specialists manage every step of the birthmark removal process. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sümeyre Seda Ertekin and Dr. Hazal Sönmezler Selek focus on both medical and cosmetic dermatology. They work alongside Dr. Zeynep Arslan to treat skin concerns like birthmarks, scars, and wrinkles. These experts use the hospital's digital mapping tools to follow up on patient progress after the procedure.
