Dermatology
Accurate skin examination is a core part of dermatology, general practice and minor surgery, helping clinicians assess lesions, monitor changes and decide on the appropriate next steps.
GP surgeries, dermatology clinics, NHS departments, and private skin specialists across the UK rely on reliable dermatology equipment to support both routine and detailed assessments.

Reliable Dermatology Equipment And Instruments At HCE
Dermatology covers a wide range of skin assessments and minor procedures, from examining moles, pigmented lesions, and skin tags to performing small biopsies, curettage, and minor in-clinic surgery. To work through these effectively, clinicians need equipment that supports clear visualisation, accurate sampling and safe minor procedures.
Dermatoscopes sit at the centre of most dermatology setups. Dermatoscopes remove reflection, refraction and diffraction of light from the surface of the skin (the stratum corneum), allowing the practitioner to see structures that the naked eye cannot see. There are two main ways of achieving this: using cross-polarised light or applying a non-reflecting fluid to the skin.
At HCE UK, our dermatology range is built around equipment from trusted manufacturers, including HEINE, Schuco, Instrapac and Riester. The range covers dermatoscopes, dermatology instruments and imaging accessories, giving clinicians the flexibility to set up their dermatology service in the way that best suits their practice.
Our dermatology range includes:
- Dermatoscopes: HEINE DELTA dermatoscopes (including the DELTAone, DELTA 20 T, and DELTA 30 PRO ranges) and the Schuco DermLite series, with options ranging from entry-level pocket dermatoscopes to advanced clinic-based devices.
- Smartphone connection accessories: Mounting cases and connection kits for HEINE Delta and Schuco DermLite dermatoscopes, enabling clinicians to capture skin images on a phone to support clinical record-keeping, monitoring of lesions over time, and onward referrals.
- Dermatology instruments: Biopsy punches, disposable ring curettes, DermaBlades, and dermatology minor-operation packs for in-clinic procedures.
- Skin imaging and lighting: Dermoscopy lenses, DermLite Lumio skin examination devices and Woods lamps for UV-based skin examination.
- Charging and storage accessories: Charging bases for DermLite devices, belt cases, carry pouches and replacement memory cards.
Many practices that offer dermatology services also work across related areas. Our cryosurgery range treats warts, verrucas, and other benign skin lesions, while our cautery and electrosurgery equipment supports a wider range of minor in-clinic procedures. For podiatry-focused practices, our chiropody range also includes instruments commonly used alongside dermatology.

FAQs
What is a dermatoscope used for?
A dermatoscope is used to examine the skin in greater detail than the naked eye can. Removing surface reflection from the stratum corneum allows clinicians to view pigment patterns, blood vessels, and other structures that can help inform their assessment of moles, lesions, and other skin presentations.
What is the difference between contact and non-contact dermatoscopes?
Contact dermatoscopes use a contact plate placed against the skin, often with an immersion fluid, to reduce surface reflection. Non-contact (or polarised) dermatoscopes use cross-polarised light to achieve a similar effect without touching the skin. Some modern dermatoscopes support both methods, allowing clinicians to switch between them depending on the type of examination.
What brands of dermatoscopes does HCE supply?
HCE UK supplies dermatoscopes from leading manufacturers, including HEINE (the DELTAone, DELTA 20 T, DELTA 30 and DELTA 30 PRO ranges) and Schuco (the DermLite series), along with bundles, contact plates and smartphone connection accessories.
