Is your skin not responding the way you’d expect, despite a solid routine and quality products? It might be time to look a little deeper. More specifically, into your gut.
At Lumière MediSpa, we know that radiant, healthy skin starts with more than just what you put on the surface. There’s a growing body of research supporting the idea that the gut and skin are closely linked, a concept known as the gut-skin axis. In this blog, we’ll break down how your gut health can impact skin conditions like acne, rosacea, eczema, and even premature ageing.
We’ll also highlight simple but powerful steps you can take to support your gut and in turn, your skin. From nutrition and lifestyle tips to understanding the role of stress and inflammation, we’ll guide you through how to nurture skin health from the inside out.
Because sometimes, the real glow-up starts in your gut.

Discover why we use LED (Light Emitting Diode in our treatments here and Lumiere Medispa).
LED therapy works by stimulating the skin at a cellular level. When the skin is exposed to specific wavelengths of light, it can trigger various biological processes.

Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner, Nicola Belson talks about one of her favourite “renewal” treatments following the winter months.
It's that time of year again when we often notice our skin looks a little dull and tired due to the environmental stresses of the winter months.
One of the ways we can revitalise our skin is with our CellRenew Micro-needling treatment.
I am often met with a look of trepidation when I advise a dermal filler treatment for a patient, and I’m not really surprised given some of the bad examples and misinformation that are out there in the media.

Retinol has long been a skincare staple, praised for its ability to smooth fine lines, boost collagen, and improve skin tone. However, new UK and EU regulations are set to limit its concentration in over-the-counter products, aiming to reduce the risk of irritation and long-term skin sensitivity. While this doesn’t mean an outright ban, it does mean changes in how consumers access and use retinol.
