Quick answer

Most skin problems seen at a general clinic can be identified through direct examination. The doctor looks at the affected area, asks about the history of the condition, and explains the treatment options. Cases that need a dermatologist are referred out.

When to see a doctor about a skin problem

Itching that keeps you awake

Itching that disturbs sleep usually means the condition is active, not just dry skin. It should be examined.

Spreading after a week

If the affected area keeps growing even after pharmacy cream, that cream may not match the actual cause.

Skin cracking or weeping

Skin that cracks, weeps or crusts can be a sign of secondary infection. This needs assessment, not waiting.

Rash on babies and children

Children have thinner skin and absorb medication faster. Do not use adult creams on them without advice.

Coming back again and again

A condition that clears then returns every few months usually has a trigger that has not been identified.

Fever with a rash

A rash with fever, facial swelling or breathlessness is an emergency. Come in straight away, do not wait for morning.

Why skin problems are hard to treat on your own

Many skin conditions look the same at first glance. Ringworm, eczema and allergic rashes can all be red, scaly and itchy. But the treatment for each is different, and the wrong treatment can make things worse.

The example we see most often: a steroid cream applied to ringworm. The itch settles for a few days, so it feels like it is working. What is actually happening is that the steroid suppresses the body response while the fungus keeps multiplying. When the cream stops, the affected area is wider than it was at the start.

Direct examination solves this. The doctor can see the pattern, distribution and texture of the skin, and ask questions an internet search cannot answer.

Skin conditions commonly brought to the clinic

Each has its own page with a fuller explanation. These are the most common.

  • Itchy and dry skin with no obvious rash

What a general clinic can and cannot do

This is a private general medical clinic. The doctors here assess, treat and monitor common skin conditions, and refer out cases that need a registered dermatologist.

We do not use the word specialist for skin services at this clinic, because that term is tied to registration in the National Specialist Register. Our doctors are medical practitioners registered with the Malaysian Medical Council.

If your condition needs specialist assessment, a biopsy, or treatment outside the scope of a general clinic, the doctor will tell you and give you a referral letter.

Cost of skin treatment

Cost depends on the condition, the type of medication and the length of treatment. We do not publish a fee list on the website because an accurate cost can only be given once the doctor knows what is being treated.

If you want an estimate before coming, send a WhatsApp message and describe your situation. Staff will help as far as anything can be explained without an examination.

The clinic accepts nearly 50 active employer and insurance panels. Check whether your company is on the list before you come.

Common questions

Do I need an appointment for a skin problem?

No. The clinic is open 24 hours and takes walk-in patients. Come straight to the counter.

Does this clinic have a skin specialist?

No. This is a private general medical clinic with doctors registered with the Malaysian Medical Council. Cases that need a dermatologist are referred out.

Can I use my company panel for skin treatment?

Yes, depending on the terms of your company panel. Check your company name in our panel list, and tell the staff at the counter when you register.

How long before I see a change?

It depends on the condition. Some fungal infections take two to four weeks. Eczema is controlled rather than cured in one go. The doctor will give you a reasonable expectation for your case.

I used a pharmacy cream and it did not help. Why?

The most common reason is that the cream does not match the actual cause. A steroid cream on a fungal infection, for example, can widen the affected area. Bring the cream you used so the doctor can see it.

Can I bring a young child?

Yes. The clinic sees children. Do not apply adult skin medication to a child before they are examined.

Do you offer aesthetic treatments such as laser or filler?

No. Aesthetic procedures require separate approval under the aesthetic medical practice guidelines. This clinic focuses on medical treatment for skin conditions.

What should I bring?

Your identity card, panel card if you have one, and any medication or cream you are currently using. If the rash comes and goes, a photo on your phone taken when it was at its worst helps a great deal.

Still have a question?

Send a message and clinic staff will answer. If you need to be examined, just come in. No appointment needed.
