The Bad Skin Clinic: Transforming Lives at OneWelbeck Skin Health & Allergy
A New Series with a Fresh Perspective
As The Bad Skin Clinic enters its seventh series, the focus broadens. Episodes in this series are arranged around particular themes, such as the challenges of facial skin conditions. One episode explores how facial skin issues can affect not only physical health but also relationships, career prospects, and self-confidence. By openly discussing these topics, Dr. Craythorne aims to raise awareness, break taboos, and shift societal perceptions.
In Series 4, Episode 12 of The Bad Skin Clinic, titled "Private Parts," Dr Craythorne addresses the sensitive topic of genital skin conditions. This particularly insightful episode highlights the struggles of patients such as Sarah, who faces the pain and embarrassment of genital warts, and Stewart, who has endured untreated lumps on his scrotum for nearly 25 years. By bringing these private issues into the open, the programme encourages individuals to seek help and fosters more candid conversations about personal skin health, breaking down barriers of stigma and embarrassment.

OneWelbeck’s state-of-the-art facility allows Dr Craythorne’s team to perform a wide range of advanced diagnostic and treatment procedures, such as phototherapy, biopsies, and even complex surgeries like Mohs micrographic surgery. With cutting-edge equipment—such as the unique 360-degree mole mapper, not available anywhere else in the UK—OneWelbeck provides Dr Craythorne with the resources to treat patients efficiently and thoroughly.
