Ranta Noora
Resident in Dermatology
Exam: MD, PhD
Language skills: Finnish, English
I am happy to treat a wide variety of skin conditions, such as atopic eczema, psoriasis, acne, rosacea, warts, skin lesions, and skin infections. Sexually transmitted diseases are also part of my expertise. I perform dermatoscopic mole examinations, cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen, and I also surgically remove skin lesions.
I provide general dermatological services, including the assessment and removal of skin lesions from areas other than the central face. From the head area, I remove lesions with a maximum diameter of 5 mm.
Patients of all ages are welcome to my clinic. I meet each patient with empathy and aim for thoroughness as well as a comprehensive evaluation. Treatment decisions are always made together, respecting your wishes. I also treat patients in English.
I work full-time as a dermatology resident at the HUS Dermatology Outpatient Clinic.
Welcome to my practice!
