Skin Health. Considered care for the skin you live in.
Doctor-led care for everyday skin concerns and long-term skin health. We consider your symptoms, skin history, current products, medications, lifestyle and other contributing factors before creating a personalised treatment plan - evidence-based, considered and designed around your skin.
Care in this area starts with a private consult: book a time and a Lume doctor discusses a tailored plan with you. Nothing is decided in advance.
Areas of care
- Acne and breakouts
- Eczema and dermatitis
- Rosacea
- Rashes and inflammatory skin conditions
- Pigmentation and uneven skin tone
- Skin texture and renewal
- Healthy ageing and long-term skin health
Care options
- Prescription treatment for acne, eczema, rosacea and dermatitis
- Treatment for uncomplicated rashes and inflammatory skin conditions
- Prescription retinoid treatment where clinically appropriate
- Pigmentation and skin tone management
- Treatment to support skin renewal, texture and healthy ageing
- Dermatologically appropriate skincare and moisturisers
- Review of your existing skincare routine and products
- Referral to a dermatologist where further assessment or specialist care is needed
- Ongoing clinician monitoring and treatment adjustment
These are examples of the routes your doctor may consider with you. Nothing is dispensed without a consult, and prescription treatment is only issued where your doctor finds it clinically appropriate.
Prescription treatment is only recommended and prescribed where clinically appropriate following assessment by a registered medical practitioner.
A good fit for

FAQs
Common questions.
- Will my skin get worse before it gets better?
- A short purge is common in the first 4–6 weeks with retinoids. Your clinician will guide titration to minimise it.
- Can I use my existing skincare?
- Yes - we'll review your routine and tell you what to keep, drop, or pause while the protocol settles in.
- Is this covered by medical aid?
- Cosmetic dermatology generally isn't, but we can issue an itemised invoice for medical-savings claims where applicable.
