At Luminox, our medical dermatology practice is built on decades of clinical expertise and a commitment to patient-centred care. From life-saving skin cancer screenings and Mohs surgery to the management of chronic conditions like rosacea, eczema, and psoriasis — we treat the full spectrum of skin health concerns with precision and compassion.
Every patient receives a thorough evaluation and a personalised treatment plan designed around their specific condition, skin type, and lifestyle. Our goal is not just to treat the symptom — but to restore your confidence and long-term skin health.
Restoring Skin Tone & Confidence
Vitiligo is a condition where the skin loses its natural pigment, leading to white patches on different areas of the body. While it is not harmful or contagious, it can affect confidence. We focus on stabilising the condition and promoting repigmentation through personalised treatments, including topical therapies.
Detection, Screening & Treatment
Basal cell, squamous cell, and melanoma are the most common skin cancers. Any non-healing, bleeding, or changing growth should be evaluated. Dr. Kim offers full-body screenings and tailored treatment plans including excision, curettage, and radiation.
Comprehensive Acne Management
From blackheads and whiteheads to cysts and nodules, we treat all forms of acne with topical medications, antibiotics, Accutane, extractions, microdermabrasion, and more — personalised to your skin type and severity.
Textural & Pigmentary Scar Correction
When acne damages the dermis, irregular collagen forms as boxcar, ice-pick, or rolling scars. Fraxel DUAL and Fraxel CO₂ improve textural changes while Vbeam addresses pigmentary inconsistencies — tailored to maximise improvement.
Chronic Redness & Inflammation
Rosacea causes redness, broken blood vessels, flushing, and pimples on the face. While there is no cure, we manage it effectively with topical creams, oral antibiotics, and laser treatment for broken capillaries.
Monitoring & Safe Removal
Moles (nevi) need regular monitoring for changes in colour, size, or shape that may indicate melanoma risk. Dysplastic moles are carefully evaluated, and clinically worrisome moles are safely removed.
HPV-Related Growth Treatment
Caused by HPV, warts can be stubborn but are treatable. We use a full arsenal — liquid nitrogen, canthacur, surgical removal, salicylic acid, and prescription creams — choosing what works best for each patient.
Dry, Itchy Skin Management
Affecting 15 million Americans, eczema causes dry, red, itchy patches. We treat it with corticosteroid creams, antihistamines, non-steroid options like Protopic or Elidel, and lifestyle guidance to keep flare-ups well controlled.
Inflammatory Plaque Skin Condition
Silvery-white scaly plaques affecting the scalp, elbows, knees, and more. While not curable, psoriasis is managed with topical medications, phototherapy, and oral or injectable biologics for severe cases.
Skin Changes Associated with Diabetes
Diabetes can lead to dry, itchy skin, infections, delayed wound healing, and conditions like diabetic dermopathy. Management focuses on blood sugar control, hydration, medicated creams, and infection prevention.
