Acne is a common, often deeply personal concern, arising from clogged pores, inflammation and bacterial activity. At Dr Mélanin, we treat acne with the nuance skin of colour deserves, combining personalised skincare, prescription topicals, chemical peels, polynucleotide therapy and microneedling into a programme tailored to you. Our focus extends beyond what’s visible today, protecting against future breakouts and the scarring or pigmentation acne can leave behind.
Dry skin often stems from environmental factors, a compromised skin barrier, or simply a build-up of dead skin that stops moisturisers from working effectively. At Dr Mélanin, we begin with a thorough consultation to understand the true cause, before recommending a tailored skincare routine. Where appropriate, we may suggest treatments such as Profhilo®, polynucleotide therapy, chemical peels or microneedling, chosen to suit your skin’s specific needs.
Dull, tired-looking skin is often the result of stress, lack of sleep, or environmental factors such as pollution and climate. In skin of colour, this can also be linked to ageing or underlying hyperpigmentation in some cases. At Dr Mélanin, we address dull or tired skin with a personalised skincare regimen, skin boosters, Profhilo®, microneedling or chemical peels, alongside a blend of polynucleotides to suit your needs to promote healing, hydration and regeneration.
Enlarged pores are often the result of excess oil production, ageing, or simply genetics and are a natural part of the skin’s anatomy. At Dr Mélanin, we take a tailored approach, combining chemical peels to gently exfoliate, microneedling to stimulate collagen, and a considered skincare routine to regulate oil. While pores cannot be completely eradicated, their appearance can be visibly improved, alongside sun protection and healthy lifestyle habits to help you achieve lasting results.
Fine lines and wrinkles are a natural part of ageing, arising from a gradual decline in collagen and elastin that leaves skin less firm over time. At Dr Mélanin, we treat forehead lines, frown lines, smile lines, crow’s feet and lines around the mouth and cheeks. Our non-invasive approach may include anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, skin boosters and collagen-stimulating treatments such as polynucleotides, tailored to soften their appearance.
Hyperpigmentation (the appearance of darkened patches on the skin) can result from previous skin damage (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, or PIH) or prolonged UV exposure or can be hereditary. PIH and darkness around the mouth are particularly common in skin of colour. At Dr Mélanin, we address this with targeted skincare, prescription topicals, chemical peels, microneedling and polynucleotide therapy, alongside diligent sun protection to help you achieve your results.
Melasma is a complex skin condition causing brown or grey patches, often shaped by a combination of genetics, hormonal influences and sun exposure, which makes it notoriously difficult to treat. At Dr Mélanin, we take a considered approach, combining a tailored skincare regimen, prescription topicals, polynucleotide therapy and strict sun protection, alongside thoughtful lifestyle adjustments to help you achieve a calmer, more even-toned complexion over time.
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition characterised by persistent redness and visible blood vessels, often triggered by a combination of internal and environmental factors. At Dr Mélanin, we take a holistic approach, combining a tailored skincare routine, prescription topicals, chemical peels and polynucleotide therapy to calm and strengthen the skin. We also place great emphasis on lifestyle factors and diligent sun protection, helping you manage triggers and reduce the likelihood of future flare-ups.
Scarring and textural irregularities often result from previous skin damage, acne, injuries or underlying skin dysfunction. At Dr Mélanin, we begin with a specialised skincare routine to provide the foundation for improvement, supported by treatments such microneedling and polynucleotide therapy which help remodel the collagen to improve the scar tissue. Each is carefully chosen to encourage tissue healing and renewal, while visibly softening the appearance of scars over time.
Under-eye circles and darkness often stem from factors like genetics, fatigue, or age-related thinning of the skin. At our clinic, targeted treatment with polynucleotides offers a solution. This innovative treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production which thickens the skin, reduces hyperpigmentation and enhances the skin’s ability to heal itself, thus helping to improve the appearance of dark circles
Uneven skin texture, often felt as small, persistent bumps beneath the skin that cannot be squeezed, can stem from whitehead congestion, skincare too rich for your skin’s needs, or conditions such as keratosis pilaris or milia. At Dr Mélanin, we begin by identifying the true cause, before recommending a tailored skincare routine alongside treatments such as chemical peels and microneedling to refine texture and reveal smoother, healthier-looking skin.
Volume loss occurs as skin gradually loses firmness and elasticity over time, often linked to a natural decline in collagen. At Dr Mélanin, we address this with non-surgical treatments such as dermal fillers, carefully restoring volume and softening the appearance of jowling around the face. For best results, these are often paired with collagen-stimulating treatments such as Sculptra and polynucleotide therapy, helping you achieve a naturally refreshed, more youthful appearance.
