Welcome to City Dermatology Clinic Dubai, your trusted specialist for professional seborrhoeic keratosis removal. Located in Jumeirah, our expert team of dermatologists and minor surgery-trained consultants provides safe, effective, and minimally invasive treatment for seborrhoeic keratosis. Whether for cosmetic reasons or diagnostic clarity, we focus on delivering precise care with minimal downtime in a calm and private clinical setting.
At City Dermatology Clinic Dubai, we understand that while seborrhoeic keratoses are non-cancerous, they can cause concern – especially when they affect appearance or comfort. Our approach is designed to offer safe, effective treatment with minimal downtime, handled by experienced dermatologists and consultants at our Jumeirah clinic.
Your journey begins with a one-to-one consultation at our clinic. A specialist dermatologist will examine the skin growth and review your medical history to confirm that removal is appropriate. This step ensures your treatment plan is tailored to your skin type, medical background, and cosmetic goals.
Should treatment be recommended, rest assured that it’s a quick and well-tolerated process. We’ll numb the area using local anaesthesia before removing the seborrhoeic keratosis with precision. Our techniques are designed to minimise any visible marks, helping your skin return to a clear, healthy appearance over time.
Recovery is typically fast. Most patients can return to daily activities shortly after treatment. Your doctor will provide you with personalised aftercare instructions, including tips for keeping the area clean and avoiding excessive exercise for around one week. This supports proper healing and helps ensure the best aesthetic outcome.
We remain available after your procedure for any questions or check-ups you may need. Our team is committed to delivering a smooth and stress-free experience from consultation to final recovery.
At City Dermatology Clinic Dubai, we regularly see patients seeking reassurance or cosmetic removal of seborrhoeic keratosis – a common, benign skin growth. These waxy, raised patches can appear on areas like the chest, back, neck, or face and often resemble stuck-on scabs or warts. While completely harmless, many patients choose removal for cosmetic reasons, especially in visible areas or where clothing causes irritation.
Seborrhoeic keratosis is extremely common in adults over 50, and its presence tends to increase with age. We offer seborrhoeic keratosis removal in Dubai using minimally invasive techniques at our Jumeirah clinic, ensuring a quick, effective treatment with minimal downtime.

Seborrheic keratosis, known as seborrheic wart, is a benign skin lesion often mistaken for a mole. We frequently perform procedures to remove these harmless yet potentially cosmetically concerning skin growths. Seborrheic keratoses vary in colour from pink to nearly black, and they typically have a rough texture. While they can appear anywhere on the body, they are most commonly found on sun-exposed areas such as the face and neck. These skin growths tend to appear from the age of 40 onward, particularly in individuals with a history of sun exposure. Despite their harmless nature, many individuals choose to have them removed to address cosmetic concerns.
Although seborrheic keratoses typically do not necessitate treatment, many individuals opt for removal due to cosmetic reasons or if they become irritated and prone to bleeding when rubbed against clothing. Despite their harmlessness, seborrheic keratoses can sometimes resemble melanoma, a serious form of skin cancer. This underscores the importance of having any new or changing skin growths assessed by a medical professional.
The precise causes of seborrheic keratoses remain unknown, although genetics are believed to play a role, with their appearance becoming more common in middle age. Unfortunately once these growths manifest, they will not disappear on their own. As time passes, particularly as you age, you may notice an increasing number of them. Skin warts like these are more common than skin cancer and are typically distinguishable by a trained Doctor during consultation without the need for complex tests. However, it’s crucial to book a consultation with a doctor if you detect any new or unusual skin lumps or discolorations to rule out potential skin cancers.
Seborrheic Keratosis can appear anywhere on the body, single or multiple, small or big, most commonly presenting on the chest, back, scalp, and neck. Occurrences on the face or other body parts are also possible.
The removal of Seborrheic Keratosis is typically performed under local anaesthesia, which means that the area being treated will be numbed. Therefore, patients should not feel pain during the procedure.
Seborrhoeic Keratosis is diagnosed through a physical examination by a dermatologist. In some cases, the dermatologist may use a dermatoscope, a special magnifying device, to examine the skin growths more closely. This non-invasive tool helps distinguish Seborrhoeic Keratosis from other skin conditions and potential skin cancers. If there’s any doubt about the diagnosis, a biopsy may be performed, where a small sample of the skin growth is removed and examined under a microscope. However, biopsies are not typically necessary for Seborrhoeic Keratosis.
Seborrhoeic Keratosis is a benign (non-cancerous) skin condition. These growths are not dangerous and do not pose a risk of developing into skin cancer. However, because they can resemble melanoma and other skin cancers, it’s important to have any new or changing skin growths evaluated by a dermatologist. This ensures that they are indeed Seborrhoeic Keratosis and not something more serious.
We run our Seborrheic Keratosis treatment clinic on weekdays, including evenings, as well as availability over the weekend. With our flexible scheduling, we’re confident that we can find a time that suits you. We aim to provide convenient options for our patients, ensuring that treatment can be accessed without disrupting your daily routine.
