Serving patients across Hampshire, we make advanced skin cancer treatment accessible and convenient for your wellbeing.

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a cutting-edge dermatological treatment that combines a photosensitising agent with specific wavelengths of light to destroy abnormal cells. The procedure begins with your dermatologist applying a light-sensitive cream to the affected area, which is then absorbed by damaged or cancerous cells over several hours. Once activated by a special light source, the medication produces a form of oxygen that selectively destroys these abnormal cells while preserving healthy surrounding tissue. At Prema Health, our dermatologist-led approach ensures accurate diagnosis and treatment planning, beginning with a thorough skin assessment. PDT therapy is particularly effective for treating actinic keratosis (precancerous sun damage), superficial basal cell carcinomas, and certain cases of Bowen's disease. The treatment offers significant advantages over surgical options, including minimal scarring, excellent cosmetic outcomes, and the ability to treat multiple lesions simultaneously. Most patients require one to two treatment sessions, with results becoming apparent as the skin heals over the following weeks. As part of our holistic GP Services, we can coordinate your ongoing skin health monitoring and provide comprehensive aftercare advice. Our clinic also offers complementary treatments such as Acne Treatment and other dermatological services to support your overall skin wellbeing. If you have concerns about skin changes or have been referred for PDT therapy, our team is here to guide you through every step of the treatment process.
