Relief - Dermatology Clinic and Aesthetic Medicine Center

Relief is a private medical center in the Ensanche Naco district of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Sisters Milinés and Michelle Scarborough founded the clinic. It specializes in dermatology and aesthetic medicine. The center takes a whole-person approach to skin health. This combines clinical diagnostics with functional medicine and metabolic evaluation.### Specialized Medical TeamThe clinic has a team of 10 physicians with backgrounds in dermatology, surgery, and nutrition. Dr. Milinés Scarborough serves as General Director. She specializes in aesthetic medicine and trichology. Dr. Jesús Spencer, a General and Oncologic Surgeon, leads the surgical department and performs dermatologic procedures.### Dermatology and Skin SurgeryRelief provides clinical care for chronic and acute skin conditions across all ages. The dermatology department manages common and complex conditions:

• Skin cancer screening and early detection of suspicious lesions
• Psoriasis management for the scalp, limbs, and nails
• Atopic dermatitis (eczema) treatments for children and adults
• Treatment of vitiligo, acne, and skin allergies
• Management of viral lesions including warts and molluscum contagiosum

For surgical needs, the clinic performs outpatient, small-incision procedures. These include biopsies, removal of sebaceous cysts and lipomas, and ingrown nail surgery.

### Aesthetic Medicine and Body ContouringThe aesthetic department uses non-surgical techniques for natural rejuvenation. Physicians use injectable treatments like Profhilo and hyaluronic acid fillers to restore facial volume. For skin tightening and body contouring, the clinic uses Endymed 3DEEP radiofrequency technology. This system delivers controlled energy to deep tissue layers, so the body reactivates natural collagen production.The center also offers several skin resurfacing and exfoliation methods:

• HydraFacial Elite – uses patented Vortex technology for deep cleansing and antioxidant infusion
• Diamond microdermabrasion – a vacuum system with diamond-coated tips to remove dead skin cells
• Chemical peels for skin regeneration
• Dermaplaning and microneedling

Each aesthetic plan begins with the Relief Body Intelligence assessment. This reviews metabolism and hormonal context before starting procedures.

### Trichology and Hair MedicineThe hair and scalp department uses specialized diagnostics to treat alopecia and inflammatory conditions. Specialists perform Trichoscopy with a digital dermatoscope. This identifies hair follicle changes and autoimmune triggers. Treatment options for hair loss include capillary mesotherapy and triamcinolone infiltration. The clinic also provides autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. This uses growth factors from the patient's own blood to stimulate hair growth.### Advanced Diagnostic and Support TechnologiesRelief integrates digital imaging and functional support into standard care. The clinic uses Ultraformer III for non-invasive lifting and LED light therapy to complete facial treatments. Diagnostic tools include digital mole mapping and dermoscopy for high-resolution skin monitoring. To support recovery, the center provides IV Therapy and personalized evaluations with functional analytics and bioidentical hormone reviews.### Services for International PatientsThe medical staff provides all consultations in Spanish. Patients visiting from abroad receive confidential care in a single building that houses both diagnostic and treatment rooms. The clinic sits in the National District, close to local hotels and city amenities.
