Dermatology

Skin, hair and scars.

The hospital’s dermatology department treats melasma and freckles, acne, scars, hair loss, benign skin lesions and vascular skin lesions. Every technique on this page sits within the technical catalogue the Ministry of Health has approved for the hospital. The doctor examines your skin first, and chooses the technique after that.

The approved list, exactly as approved.

The full list at the foot of this page is the dermatology section of the technical catalogue approved for the hospital by the Ministry of Health under Decision 723/QĐ-BYT of 23 March 2026, with technique codes per Circular 23/2024/TT-BYT. The names are the approved names, kept as they stand rather than rewritten into trade names.

The techniques use CO2 laser, KTP/Nd:YAG laser, intense pulsed light (IPL), fractional laser, radiofrequency (RF), microneedling with topical medication, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), LED light therapy, iontophoresis, and both therapeutic and aesthetic injections. None of them is surgery.

One skin problem, several possible routes. Melasma, for instance, appears in the list both as a device-based treatment and as microneedling with topical medication. Which one suits you depends on your skin type, how far the condition has gone, what medication you are on and what you have already had done. The doctor sets out the options during the consultation itself.

The main treatment groups.

Treats

  • Hair loss
  • Baldness

Techniques in the list

Subcutaneous triamcinolone injection, device-based treatment, microneedling with topical medication, and drug-delivery microneedling with collagen induction.

Type

The examination comes before the technique.

The first appointment is an examination. The doctor looks at the skin, takes your medical history, asks what medication you are on and what has already been done. The catalogue includes skin imaging and analysis with a skin analyser, used when the doctor needs a closer look at pigment and surface condition.

After that examination, the doctor tells you which techniques fit, which do not, and why. We do not promise a result in advance, and we do not sell a course of treatment before anyone has looked at your skin.

Before you book.

A few things make the consultation quicker and more accurate.

  • Medication. Bring the prescription or a photo of the packaging, including topical products and supplements.
  • Previous treatment. Laser, microneedling, injections or chemical peels done elsewhere, and how long ago.
  • Underlying conditions and allergies. The doctor needs to know about autoimmune disease, clotting disorders, a history of keloids and any drug allergy.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding. Some techniques and medications have to wait, so tell the doctor at the outset.

The cost of each technique, how many sessions it takes and what you will need to avoid afterwards are all discussed face to face at that appointment.
