About the disease

Fungal skin diseases are caused by microscopic parasitic fungi.

The most common method of infection is through contact with a person or animal sick with this disease. You can also get a fungal infection by using contaminated personal hygiene items - towels, combs, wearing shoes of a person with a fungal disease barefoot, etc.

About the disease

Symptoms of fungal diseases

Skin peeling, mainly along the periphery of the lesions, is the most characteristic manifestation of fungal skin infection. There may be signs of inflammation, blisters, and occasionally the formation of pus. Some pathogens of mycoses can resolve without treatment, but often fungal diseases become chronic.

Types of fungal skin diseases

Based on the depth of the lesion, the following are distinguished:

  • Keratomycosis (localized in the most superficial layers of the skin).
  • Dermatomycosis (affects the deeper layers of the skin).
  • Deep mycoses (affect subcutaneous fat tissue).

Dear Elena Viktorovna! I express my sincere gratitude for your amazing work. Here is my story. At the beginning of the year, I went to the clinic, made an appointment with Dr. Elena Viktorovna, for a consultation and treatment of chronic onychodystrophy and onychomycosis of the nails of the big toes. The nail on the toe of my left foot was in terrible condition, I was even ready for its surgical removal. The doctor immediately offered me a treatment system without the terrible removal: correction with a titanium thread, laser therapy, various external drugs and dietary supplements. I began to come to the procedures and follow all the necessary recommendations for treatment. I really like the laser heating procedure for nails, at first it was a little scary, and then even pleasant. The effect of the treatment did not appear immediately, barely noticeable and gradually as the nails grew. After six months, without exaggeration, a miracle happened: the nails acquired a normal, human appearance, and the former nightmare was left in the past. The treatment is still ongoing, but the positive result is obvious. My long-time dream that I will soon be able to walk barefoot openly is coming true. Elena Viktorovna, you are an excellent doctor and a wonderful person. Your main personal trait is your reverent care for the patient, and your professional traits are your golden hands, experience, iron patience and love for work. I am happy that I got treatment from you. I wish you career growth, success in professional development and studies. Thank you very much! In conclusion, I would like to write a few words to the heads of the clinic: Thank you for the good organization of the clinic, I wish you success and further prosperity. Please pay attention to the excellent work of Dr. Marchenko Elena Viktorovna. She is your golden employee! Such a doctor is the pride of the clinic. Please love, encourage and promote her. Sincerely, your client.

Many thanks to the cosmetologists K+31! I did 10 sessions of diode laser hair removal on the whole body. Totally removed hair from legs, arms, back and bikini area. I am very pleased. The skin is smooth, there has been no new hair at all for 2 months.

Voronova Elena
Recently, I underwent a procedure of photorejuvenation and laser rejuvenation around the eyes by a cosmetologist Alexandra Sukhanova. I am very grateful to the doctor, excellent result. Under my eyes and on my right temple, I had small age spots, and so, all this disgrace disappeared, and there were fewer wrinkles under the eyes and it felt that the skin seemed to have become denser, dark circles under the eyes disappeared, the look became more open. The procedure itself was painless and everything went smoothly. Doctor is a professional in his field.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Catherine. For a year of mesotherapy of the scalp, the hair began to recover. I went through 2 courses of 7-9 procedures and the difference between what was on my head (hair fell out after covid, problematic thyroid gland) and what is now huge. Hair restoration is a long, laborious process, and you don’t have to wait for a miracle right away. Mesotherapy is not a pleasant procedure. But you need to be patient and everything will work out. Ekaterina is a competent specialist, answers all questions, advises, encourages. Thank you so much)

Alexandra is the only doctor who helped me solve my problem. I have been looking for "my" cosmetologist for about 10 years and I am happy that one day I came to Alexandra. I completely trust her experience and aesthetic taste. Alexandra, thank you very much!
