Who we are

Dr. Brian Higgins, a trusted family doctor with 14 years of experience, founded the Galway Skin Clinic in 2020 to meet the growing demand for expert dermatological care and advanced aesthetic treatments in the community. With a deep understanding of the impact skin conditions like acne and rosacea can have on patients' quality of life, Dr. Higgins and his team provide personalised, evidence-based care designed to restore skin health and boost confidence.

We understand that it can be difficult for patients to know which treatments are right for them or where to find the best care. That’s why our mission is to advocate for our patients, using a team-based approach to ensure they receive tailored, high-quality care that addresses their unique needs.

Our clinic offers a comprehensive range of cutting-edge treatments, from managing complex skin conditions to rejuvenating therapies that address the signs of ageing. Patients can trust in the clinic’s commitment to achieving safe, effective results, supported by a team of experienced professionals.

Nurse Maria Melia specialises in chemical peels, injectable treatments for facial rejuvenation, and Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for hair restoration, offering personalised care to meet each patient’s goals. 

Advanced Laser and Skin Therapist Rebecca Gannon, with international training, brings expertise in using advanced laser devices to treat vascular and pigmentation issues, ensuring top-tier care in skin rejuvenation.

At Galway Skin Clinic, we pride ourselves on delivering the highest standard of medical and aesthetic treatments, so every patient feels confident they are receiving the best care possible, with the support of a dedicated team.
