Holistic Management for a Chronic Condition
Lichen sclerosus is a long-term inflammatory vulval skin condition that can cause itching, soreness, splitting and scarring, but symptoms are often well controlled with the right treatment plan and ongoing care. Your first visit is focused on confirming the diagnosis, starting the recognised first-line treatment with a strong prescription steroid ointment plus regular moisturising and gentle skin care, and then setting a clear maintenance and follow-up plan to reduce flare-ups and protect the vulval skin over time.
Regeneration Meets Anti-Inflammatory Light
Why PRP calm LS
Our priority is always evidence-based control of lichen sclerosus. For many women, a strong topical steroid ointment remains the cornerstone of care, with long-term maintenance to reduce symptoms and help prevent scarring. Some patients ask about regenerative options such as PRP. PRP uses your own blood to concentrate platelets and growth factors. In clinic practice, PRP is sometimes used as an adjunct in selected patients, particularly where symptoms persist, tissue feels fragile, or quality of life is significantly affected. It is not a replacement for medical treatment, and suitability is assessed carefully.
Soothe flare symptoms
Reduces irritation and helps break the itch-scratch cycle alongside prescribed treatment.
Improved skin resilience
Supports stronger, more resilient skin with moisturising, barrier repair, and a clear maintenance plan.
Intimacy Comfort
Addresses fissuring, dryness triggers, and pain drivers to help intimacy feel more comfortable.
Long-Term Protection
Regular review helps manage recurrence and ensures any skin changes are checked promptly.

Accurate diagnosis and medical governance
Lichen sclerosus can be mistaken for thrush or irritation. We focus on correct diagnosis, clear education, and safe follow-up.
Barrier and irritant strategy
Gentle cleansing, avoidance of irritants, and moisturising support can reduce day-to-day discomfort and flare triggers.
Hormone and health screening where appropriate
More common after menopause; dryness or low oestrogen may add discomfort, so we consider the wider picture.

Most patients need maintenance treatment to keep symptoms controlled and reduce flare frequency.
