Medically led care
Why Choose a Medically Led Clinic?
When you’re living with a skin concern, understanding the cause is just as important as treating the symptoms. At Areté Medical Clinic, our approach is medically led, evidence-based and personalised to you.
Why does this matter?
Care that starts with understanding
We look beyond the surface of the skin to understand what may be contributing to your concerns, before creating a treatment plan designed around your individual skin, lifestyle and goals. A medically led approach means your skin is assessed by a medically qualified clinician, with the knowledge to recognise when a concern requires further investigation, medical treatment or a more considered approach to skincare and procedures.
Assessment before treatment
We take the time to understand your skin rather than simply treating what we can see. Your symptoms, skin history, lifestyle, nutrition and current skincare are all considered.
Evidence-based treatment
Your treatment plan is built around clinically supported skincare, treatments and, where appropriate, prescription options rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
A treatment journey, not a quick fix
Healthy skin needs time, consistency and careful progression—especially when managing inflammatory skin conditions or a compromised skin barrier.
Clinical oversight
We can recognise when a skin concern may require further medical assessment or referral, ensuring your care remains appropriate as your skin changes.
Personalised, progressive care
We introduce products and procedures at the right time, monitor how your skin responds and adjust your plan where necessary.
Patient journey: Sara
From widespread cystic acne to healthier, more confident skin
Sara came to Areté with widespread cystic acne across the face, increased pore visibility and texture, significant dullness and dehydration. Her skin barrier was also highly compromised. Rather than trying to change everything at once, we focused on understanding her skin and rebuilding it progressively. Her journey began with a comprehensive Skin Health Analysis, followed by carefully introduced medical-grade skincare to support her barrier and improve overall skin health. As her skin became stronger and more resilient, we gradually introduced chemical peels and microneedling to address congestion, texture, post-inflammatory changes and skin quality. The transformation was the result of consistent clinical guidance, appropriate treatment progression and giving her skin the time it needed to respond. Today, Sara says she no longer feels she needs makeup to feel comfortable in her skin.
“I don’t have to hide my skin anymore.”
“Natasha is truly incredible—kind, full of positive energy, and genuinely caring. Her holistic approach helped me understand the root causes of my skin concerns. I now feel much more confident in my skincare knowledge and supported throughout my journey.”
