    Dr Hélène Menagé is a leading London Dermatologist, who specialises in photodermatology, sun allergies, skin cancer and inflammatory diseases. She is a Consultant Dermatologist with Lewisham Hospital and Honorary Consultant Dermatologist at St Johns Institute of Dermatology Guys' Hospital. The 2016-17 president of the dermatology section of the Royal Society of Medicine, she is immensely skilled in disorders of the skin, from inflammatory conditions such as psoriasis and rosacea to rather more serious afflictions like melanoma and skin cancer. For sun damage, she has recently started offering Daylight Photodynamic Therapy, where a topical cream is applied to the skin, making it light-sensitive, before exposing it to LED.

    Dr Menagé qualified from Guys' Hospital with an intercalated BSc in psychology. She worked on the professorial units at Guys' and Lewisham and thereafter for four years in general (internal) medicine in teaching and postgraduate hospitals before training in dermatology at St John's Institute. Her research was in photodermatology and her most significant academic contributions were the finding of a highly significant HLA association with the photodermatosis actinic prurigo, a rare type of skin sensitivity induced by sunlight.

    Dr Menagé has served as a clinical editor of ‘Current Medical Literature: Dermatology’. She is a past president of the St John's Dermatological Society, which holds monthly educational meetings for consultants and dermatologists in training. She has published academic papers, book chapters and clinical case reports. She has assisted in the development of consensus statements for the public through the British Photodermatology Group and NHS choices and contributed to Guidelines action groups and publications for the British Association of Dermatologists ‘There’s never a dull moment in dermatology’, says Dr Menagé.
