Many people are bothered by allergies, but it can sometimes be difficult to understand what is causing the symptoms. Simple allergy tests can help to solve this: when the cause of the allergy is known, it is easier to avoid the cause, or find a suitable medical or desensitisation treatment.

Allergy is the common name for a situation in which the body’s defence system overreacts to an external stimulus. This could be a substance that has come into contact with the skin, or pollen that has entered the respiratory system. Read more about allergies.
Affordable tests for allergens you are worried about
The Skin Hospital provides a wide range of tests with which you can identify the possible cause of an allergy. An allergy diagnosis will help you to identify the right medicines, and to prepare for the allergy season based on the correct timing in the case of pollen allergies. Our experts also provide desensitisation treatment, which provides permanent relief from allergies.
Allergies are diagnosed using blood tests, with no need to stop taking your allergy medicine. We perform tests without a doctor’s referral and post the results to your home address.

Avoid pointless tests for food allergies
We do not recommend testing for food allergies without a doctor’s referral, because the tests will not necessarily reveal the whole truth. The test values may be high even if there is no allergic reaction, or due to factors such as cross-reactivity. In the case of food allergies, you should take note of your own symptoms and seek expert help, where necessary.
On the other hand, an allergy test can help to identify pollen, animal and other allergies. Our dermatologists and allergologists assist patients with medical and densensitisation treatment and our lung doctor help those with respiratory symptoms and pollen allergies.
