Treatments

Dr Phillips offers treatments with the Stellar M22 and Nordlys IPL devices, both of which are renowned for their precision and efficacy. These advanced systems offer customisable treatment settings, allowing for a personalised approach tailored to each patient’s skin type and concerns.

It works by delivering short pulses of high-energy light to break down pigment in the skin without damaging surrounding tissue. This treatment is highly effective for reducing age spots, sun damage, and stubborn pigmentation, resulting in a clearer and more even complexion.
Non-ablative lasers
Non-ablative lasers are an effective way to rejuvenate the skin without significant downtime. These treatments stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and target concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, and acne scars. Unlike ablative lasers, non-ablative treatments do not remove layers of skin, making them a gentler option with a shorter recovery time.
Dr Phillips uses the Lutronic LaseMD Ultra, Stellar M22 ResurFx and Nordlys 1550/1927 Fraxel lasers in his practice due to their ability to provide highly precise and effective treatment with minimal downtime.
Lutronic LaseMD Ultra
The LaseMD Ultra is an advanced non-ablative laser designed to stimulate collagen production and rejuvenate the skin. By creating precise micro-channels, it triggers the body’s natural healing response, leading to firmer, smoother, and more radiant skin. This treatment effectively targets fine lines, uneven skin tone, and sun damage with minimal downtime.
Dr. Derrick Phillips incorporates the LaseMD Ultra into his practice to enhance skin rejuvenation and maximise treatment outcomes through laser-assisted drug delivery. This advanced laser gently resurfaces the skin while simultaneously improving the absorption of active skincare ingredients such as growth factors, antioxidants, and hydrating serums. By optimising the penetration of these formulations, the treatment helps accelerate skin renewal, boost collagen production, and enhance overall skin health.
Lutronic LaseMD Ultra
The Stellar M22 ResurFx is a cutting-edge non-ablative laser designed to improve skin texture and stimulate collagen production. It is particularly effective for treating scars, fine lines, and overall skin rejuvenation. By delivering targeted energy without removing layers of skin, it promotes natural healing and enhances skin tone with minimal downtime.
Ablative lasers
Ablative lasers are highly effective for skin resurfacing, improving skin texture, and treating deep wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation. Unlike non-ablative lasers, these treatments remove the outer layers of the skin, triggering collagen regeneration and revealing fresher, healthier skin underneath.
Dr. Derrick Phillips uses UltraPulse Laser due to its advanced fractional CO2 technology, which allows for precise skin resurfacing with reduced downtime. This laser is highly effective in treating acne scars, deep wrinkles, and sun damage while ensuring controlled energy delivery to maximise results and patient comfort.

Inflammatory skin conditions
Acne
Acne is one of the most common skin conditions, affecting people of all ages. It manifests as blackheads, whiteheads, pus-filled spots and cysts in areas rich in oil producing glands. Persistent acne can result in scarring, impacting both skin health and self-esteem. Dr Phillips treats all forms of acne and offers treatment plans to address the root cause and prevent long-term damage.
Treatments include:
- Prescription creams and oral medications to reduce inflammation, regulate oil production and prevent breakouts
- Bespoke creams formulated using cosmeceuticals and prescription ingredients
- Advanced skincare regimens to support skin healing without causing further breakouts
Acne scarring
Acne scarring occurs when severe or persistent acne leads to damage to the deeper layers of the skin, and abnormal healing resulting in textural changes. Scars can appear as narrow V-shaped depressions (ice-pick scars), box-shaped depressions (boxcar scars), uneven depressions with sloping (rolling scars) or raised thick scars (hypertrophic scars).
Dr Phillips offers a range of treatments for acne scarring including chemical peels, polynucleotide injections, microneedling (hyperlink to microneedling page), radiofrequency microneedling (hyperlink to RF microneedling page) and laser resurfacing (hyperlink to laser page).
Dr Phillips also treats post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and post-inflammatory erythema which are the brown and red marks that can persist after acne has cleared.
Rosacea
Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that causes red, scaly patches to appear on areas like the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back. It develops when the immune system makes skin cells grow too quickly, leading to thickened, flaky skin. Psoriasis can be itchy, uncomfortable, and affect confidence, but with the right treatment, it can be well controlled.
Dr Phillips provides expert care for psoriasis with tailored treatment plans to reduce inflammation, control flare-ups, and improve skin health. Depending on the severity and type of psoriasis, treatment options may include:
- Creams and ointments: Medications applied directly to the skin to reduce redness, scaling, and discomfort.
- Light therapy (phototherapy): A treatment that uses controlled exposure to natural or artificial light to slow down skin cell growth.
- Oral and injectable medications: For more severe cases, these treatments help regulate the immune system and control symptoms.
- Skincare and lifestyle guidance: Advice on how to manage triggers, such as stress or diet, to keep symptoms under control.
With a patient-focused approach, Dr Phillips helps people with psoriasis manage their condition and achieve healthier skin.
Eczema
Eczema is a common skin condition that causes dryness, redness, itching, and irritation. It can range from mild to severe and may flare up due to triggers like stress, allergens, weather changes, and certain skincare products. Although eczema is a long-term condition, it can be effectively managed with the right treatment.
Dr Phillips creates personalised treatment plans to help soothe and protect sensitive skin. His approach includes:
- Skin barrier repair: Specialised moisturising creams to repair the skin barrier and prevent dryness
- Topical medications: Prescription creams and ointments to reduce inflammation and relieve itching.
- Oral and injectable treatments: For more severe cases, these treatments help regulate the immune system and control symptoms.
- Lifestyle guidance: Advice on avoiding triggers and maintaining healthy skin habits
Through expert care, Dr Phillips helps patients to control their eczema symptoms and improve their skin’s comfort and appearance.
