The skin of the thigh sags with age, but weight loss can cause a similar problem too. During thighplasty, our plastic surgeon removes excess adipose tissue (subcutaneous body fat) and part of the stretched skin, thus regaining a taut effect on this part of the body.
Our pediatric annual cards are based on special criteria for different age groups of children.
In our screening packages for children, it is possible to detect diseases that occur in childhood at an early stage, enabling the prevention, timely detection and treatment of later conditions that are considered common diseases.
Even for infants, there are screening tests that are mandatory or recommended so that any abnormalities or developmental disorders undetected during pregnancy, which show no signs or symptoms, are detected and treated in a timely manner. Neonatal ultrasound is a painless examination and no side effects should be feared. Our six-week-old infant screening package is specifically recommended for babies born prematurely, twins, low-weight newborns, breech babies, or for babies who began their lives in Perinatal Intensive Care (PIC). The examination takes about 30 minutes and a change of baby clothes is recommended. Our screening package includes the baby’s sixth-week mandatory infant screening tests.
Our screening packages for children are specially developed to eliminate potential problems. Naturally, we provide the possibility of treating any diseases that may be detected during the screening. With the help of an orthopedic examination we can detect musculoskeletal and postural disorders as well as the causes of leg, knee or back pain. In most cases the earlier such problems are discovered, the better the results. Eyesight problems, detectable during ophthalmic screening, can prevent a situation whereby a child’s headaches or learning difficulties draw our attention to them. Early hearing loss, possibly caused by chronic underlying aural processes, can be detected via an ear, nose and throat (ENT) test. An abdominal ultrasound scan can provide information about the condition of internal organs and any possible abnormalities.
During deliveries at Dr. Rose Private Hospital, neonatologists specializing in the care of newborns are involved in each case and have the most experience in recognizing and caring for any pre- or postnatal abnormalities that may occur. This practice is also in compliance with international standards.
Allergic conditions can take many forms, which can occur at almost any age, and their incidence in children, adolescents and young adults is constantly increasing worldwide. They can affect the airways (chronic cough, shortness of breath, asthma, laryngeal edema), the eyes (itchy eyes, conjunctivitis, allergic conjunctivitis), the nasal mucosa (nasal congestion, chronic rhinitis, hay fever), the skin (eczema, rashes, hives) and intestinal tract (food sensitivity, food allergies). Genetic predisposition and environmental influences are involved in their development, and the triggering of certain diseases can be considered as pathological reactions to external influences (mostly so-called allergens).
In infancy and childhood, the skin is more vulnerable, with more frequent skin lesions and various infections. Nowadays, more and more children have sensitive skin, thus certain skin diseases are specific to childhood.
