What is a Somatologist?
A somatologist is a qualified skin health therapist trained in clinical skin care techniques. The qualification covers skin physiology, pathology awareness, cosmetic chemistry, and hands-on treatment methods.
Unlike a beauty therapist, a somatologist is trained to recognise skin disorders and to work within clinical environments — making them well-suited to support medically managed skin treatment plans.
In our practice, somatology is not a standalone beauty offering. It is an integrated component of the dermatologist-led care model.

Why somatology within a dermatologist's practice?
The same treatments available at beauty clinics are available here — but with a clinical layer of oversight that changes the outcome.
Dermatologist oversight
All somatology treatments at this practice are performed under Dr. Spengane's treatment direction. You are not receiving beauty therapy — you are receiving clinical skin care.
Diagnosis-first approach
Treatment begins with a medical skin assessment. This ensures the right therapies are selected for your actual diagnosis, not assumptions.
Integrated planning
Somatology sessions are coordinated with any medical dermatology you may be receiving, avoiding conflicts and maximising results.
Medical-grade products
We use professional brands including Dermaceutic, ROCQ, and Lycoderm — selected for clinical efficacy and skin compatibility.
