Skin therapy focuses on treating and improving skin concerns that lie deeper than the superficial skin layer.
At Huidkliniek Parkstad, skin therapy is performed by a certified skin therapist, registered with the Dutch Association of Skin Therapists (NVH) and working according to the professional quality standards and guidelines of the field. Our clinic is affiliated with all Dutch health insurers, which means certain forms of skin therapy may be covered under supplementary insurance.

This page is intended for anyone searching for skin therapy, a skin therapist, or scar therapy in Simpelveld and Zuid-Limburg.

What is skin therapy?

Skin therapy is a paramedical specialty focused on treating damaged, affected, or troubled skin. The goal is to improve skin function, reduce symptoms, and restore the skin’s structure.

Within our clinic, skin therapy is used for:

• acne and inflammation
• acne scars and other types of scarring
• pigmentation spots, melasma, and sun damage
• redness, broken capillaries, and couperose
• textural issues such as enlarged pores
• skin ageing and loss of firmness

By working with therapeutic techniques and medically certified equipment, these skin concerns are treated effectively and safely.

Scar therapy

Scar therapy is an important part of skin therapy. It focuses on refining, softening, and evening out scars caused by acne, wounds, or other skin issues.

Depending on the type of scar, we use:

• medical microneedling (SkinPen)
• medical chemical peels
• plasma energy (NeoGen)
• laser treatments for redness
• intensive skin improvement programs

These treatments gradually make scars smoother, flatter, and less visible.

Affiliated with all health insurers – reimbursement possible

Huidkliniek Parkstad is affiliated with all health insurers in the Netherlands. This means reimbursement may be available for:

• acne therapy (face)
• camouflage therapy
• in some cases, scar therapy

These services are always covered under supplementary insurance. The amount reimbursed depends on your specific policy and coverage. During the consultation, we assess which reimbursement may apply. Our clinic’s invoices meet all requirements set by health insurers.

Consultation and skin scan

Skin therapy always begins with a consultation. During this appointment, the skin therapist assesses your skin and performs a professional skin scan using the Observ 520x.

This scan provides insight into:

• deep pigment
• redness and vascular structures
• scar formation
• textural concerns
• overall skin condition across multiple skin layers

Based on this, we create a personalised and well-substantiated treatment plan tailored to the skin therapist’s diagnosis.
