By Your Side Throughout the Journey, From Start To Finish
The motherhood journey is a long one; and over the years we've walked our clients though each and every chapter; from combatting the wildly changing hormone issues of the IVF process, every stage of pregnancy, and postpartum skin rebalancing and restoration.
By tailoring our specialised pregnancy and breastfeeding skin treatments to the unique needs of your skin, and to its varying presentation on the day of your visit, we can keep ahead of the game, and help you to keep your skin as healthy and happy as can be!
Let us take care of your skin throughout your pregnancy and breastfeeding journey, and we help maintain healthy, well-behaved skin throughout the hormonal waves and shifts that motherhood brings.
Handpicked Ingredients = Safe Treatments
The cosmeceutical-grade skincare products and therapies we offer provide us with documentation around which of their ranges is pregnancy and breastfeeding-safe; and we're guided by this as to which potions and therapies are suitable and safe for you during this important time.
Of course, certain products, such as Vitamin A, and other treatments which may allow absorption into the skin, are off the menu for now, but there are still so many incredible and effective dermal therapies we can offer you!

Application type and products used are according to skin type and our recommendation. All products used during treatment are safe for those who are pregnant and breastfeeding.
Effective Pregnancy & Breastfeeding Safe Skincare
Pregnancy and postpartum are such special times, but the hormonal shifts can often leave skin feeling unpredictable. Breakouts, sensitivity, pigmentation (like melasma), and dryness are all common, and many people are told they need to stop using their favourite active ingredients altogether.
The good news? You don’t need to give up on effective skincare.
At Eltham Cosmetic Clinic, we use Dermaviduals, a medical-grade skincare range that allows us to design truly bespoke, safe, and powerful formulations tailored to your skin’s needs during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Safe, Customised Actives for Your Skin...
Dermaviduals offers a wide range of medical-grade active ingredients, which your dermal therapist can combine into custom blends just for you. That means you’ll have products that actively target your concerns, while being safe for both pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Here are some of the key actives we can use for you:
Pregnancy-safe Vitamin A
Unlike traditional retinoids, Dermaviduals’ form of Vitamin A is carefully stabilised and pregnancy-safe. It helps to regulate cell turnover, refine texture, and support healthy skin renewal without the risks associated with stronger prescription retinoids.
Liposome Concentrate Plus
An ECC favourite! These essential fatty acids strengthen the skin barrier and help reduce inflammation. They’re particularly useful for managing hormonal breakouts and restoring balance, while also supporting pigment regulation, an important consideration for those prone to pregnancy-related melasma.
Niacinamide
A true multitasker that calms redness, strengthens the skin barrier, regulates oil flow, and helps even out pigmentation. Perfect for supporting hormonally sensitive skin.
Hyaluronic Acid
Hydration heroes that plump and soothe dry, tight, or flaky skin, which is especially common during pregnancy.
Anti-inflammatory Extracts (such as Boswellia or Green Tea)
Help to calm sensitivity and reduce irritation that can flare during hormonal shifts.

Laser Treatments
Learn MorePastelle laser treatment is a non-invasive procedure that uses laser technology to target and treat skin issues, such as pigmentation, texture irregularities, or scarring. For breastfeeding clients, the treatment is generally considered safe, as it doesn't involve medications or invasive procedures that would affect breast milk production or transfer into the baby.
