Vulval Conditions: Expert Diagnosis and Treatment in Sussex

Vulval skin issues can present as itching, soreness, or burning sensations — often as a combination. These symptoms can cause considerable distress and anxiety, impacting both your intimate relationships and day-to-day life. At our Sussex dermatology clinics, we understand how sensitive these concerns can be. If you prefer to see a female specialist, we are able to offer consultations with experienced female Dermatology Consultants who provide discreet, expert care.

Common Vulval Conditions We Treat

Expert Care from a Vulval Skin Specialist for a Range of Common Conditions

Inflammatory Vulval Skin Conditions:

We offer evidence-based treatment for a wide range of vulval dermatological concerns. Our specialists manage chronic inflammatory disorders such as vulval eczema and psoriasis. Another commonly treated condition is lichen sclerosus, which often leads to white patches, thinning of the skin, and significant discomfort. Lichen simplex is also frequently seen and is typically caused by chronic itching and scratching, resulting in thickened, irritated skin. In addition, we manage cases of lichen planus, a condition that can cause painful erosions or purple-tinged bumps on the vulva.

These conditions often require long-term management and a personalised treatment approach to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life. Lichen sclerosus treatment is often central to our care plans, aimed at reducing inflammation and preventing skin damage. We also provide effective vulval eczema treatment and support for those experiencing psoriasis on the vulva, helping to manage flare-ups and discomfort. Our tailored therapies for lichen simplex management focus on breaking the itch-scratch cycle, while lichen planus on the vulva is treated with care to alleviate pain and restore skin health.

Lumps and Bumps in the Vulva:

Unusual growths or changes in the skin such as cysts, warts or benign growths can be worrying. We provide accurate diagnosis and treatment for lumps and bumps in the vulva, including surgical and non-surgical options when needed.

Cosmetic Treatments for the Vulva

In addition to medical care, we also offer a range of aesthetic treatments to improve the appearance of your intimate area. If you’re tired of shaving, waxing or dealing with persistent skin tags or moles that catch on clothing, we can help.

Popular cosmetic vulval treatments include:

Bikini line laser hair removal

Mole and skin tag removal (see Minor surgery page for details)
