The Problem
Skin concerns can affect confidence and day-to-day wellbeing — from persistent acne and pigmentation to scarring, lumps and bumps, and signs of ageing. Many patients feel unsure what will work, and want honest medical guidance they can trust.

How Dr Thuva Can Help
He provides bespoke treatment plans for concerns including:
- Acne and acne scarring (including acne cyst injections, microneedling, and subcision)
- Pigmentation and melasma (including chemical peels and Cosmelan)
- Skin lesion assessment and removal — moles, skin tags, warts, cysts, and lipomas
- Keloid scars and scar treatments
- Hair loss and thinning hair (including PRP)
- Botox and dermal fillers for subtle, refreshed results
Dr Thuva has particular expertise in skin of colour dermatology, with a careful, tailored approach to help prevent flare-ups and reduce unwanted pigmentation.
