Minor Surgery, Dermatology, Cosmetic Medicine

Altruderm is a private skin clinic led by Clinical Director, Dr. Kieron McDaid in Newton Mearns, in the southside of Glasgow offering a complementary range of skin services all in the one place.

Regulated by Healthcare Improvement Scotland (HIS) we are committed to the highest standards of care and value your trust.

Dermatology

If you’re concerned about moles or bothered by other skin conditions, book a dermatology consultation with Dr. McDaid. His advanced skills in dermoscopy allows him to take a more detailed look at your skin to give you a prompt diagnosis and, if required, targeted treatment plan assisted in some cases by our pathology service to ensure your peace of mind.

Aesthetic medicine

Fed up of cleanse, tone, moisturise, repeat but not looking for surgery? We have a full range of non-surgical treatments to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, restore the jawline, replace lost volume in the face, minimise acne scarring and improve skin quality as well as treat a number of other conditions or concerns associated with ageing. With our combined knowledge in dermatology and aesthetic medicine we can guide you in making the right decision for you.

Mole removal and skin surgery

Are you considering mole removal? Radiowave surgery means less scarring, faster healing and minimal post-operative pain. We’re Scotland’s only independent private clinic offering Ellman radio wave surgery for removal of benign minor lesions such as mole, cysts and lipomas. We’re proud to bring this advanced technology to our clinic as it provides excellent cosmetic results for our patients.

Joint Pain

If you’re troubled by painful joints, perhaps because of a sports injury or ageing, we offer a selection of pain relief treatments such as those that harness the body’s own natural healing properties (PRP treatment) as well as others focused on replenishing crucial substances (e.g. hyaluronic acid) to help lubricate the joints to relieve pain and reduce stiffness. Treatment plans are tailored to your specific needs.
