Dr Haus Dermatology: Great British Brand 2024
‘I first became fascinated by dermatology at university, because the skin is the largest organ in our body and has so many important functions. I specialise in laser work and injectable-based treatments, as well treating skin cancers on the NHS, but at the clinic we have a team of dermatologists. Between us, we cover the full spectrum of medical and aesthetic dermatology.
When a patient comes to see me, I am like Sherlock Holmes, looking back at their past and family history to understand what is happening now. The brain and skin are like twins, so if your body is stressed, the first way to release it is through the skin. I always ask about a patient’s mental health, stress, diet, lifestyle – all this can have an impact on the skin. What we see can be the consequence rather than the cause, or a symptom of a serious problem with another organ so it’s important to take a 360-degree holistic approach. For instance, rosacea is a very complex condition. Some doctors simply prescribe antibiotics but new research has shown that taking probiotics to improve your microbiomes automatically improves the skin.
I am always learning about new technologies and I’ve loved lasers ever since being fanatical about Star Wars as a child. Lasers can be used to treat so many different types of conditions, as varied as sun damage, facial redness, melasma, large pores, acne scars and some skin cancers. At the moment, there is a huge race among pharmaceutical companies, which are all trying to work out how to make the best use of AI and develop patents and licenses the fastest. In the short term, I think it will be a useful tool to accelerate the diagnosis of conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, but the human touch is priceless.’

Five Proudest Moments
1. Starting my clinic from a single room on Harley Street in 2010.
2. Starting to use the eMax laser platform a year later for skin rejuvenation and to treat conditions such as acne and rosacea. This is still used in the clinic today
3. Moving Dr Haus Dermatology into its newly refurbished Grade-II listed premises at 75 Harley Street in 2021
4. Acquiring the Smart Pico Laser, using the fastest pulse available, in 2023. The clinic offers nine different laser platforms and over 50 treatment modalities
5. Today, Dr Haus Dermatology is a team of 20, including six dermatologists, for patients aged 13 years and above.
What I’ve Learnt
- No matter how much education, qualifications or experience you have, you can never stop learning.
- It is important to be able to offer patients options, and that’s why we constantly invest in the latest technology for treating the skin.
- We get a lot of referrals from existing patients because people will always remember how you made them feel.
