Lichen Sclerosus
Compassionate, doctor-led support for women living with lichen sclerosus — alongside conventional medical management.
Can lichen sclerosus be treated?
Lichen sclerosus is a chronic skin condition affecting the vulvovaginal area. It is not curable but is highly manageable with appropriate medical care, lifestyle adjustments and, in selected cases, regenerative treatments such as PRP or polynucleotides.
Dr Farzana works alongside your gynaecology or dermatology team where appropriate, offering a private, unhurried setting and clear information.
