What happened when they came to us
Real words from real patients and parents.
“He truly listened to what worked and created my cream. Just amazing being able to sleep at night from not scratching and to have my confidence back. It really has been life changing and I wish it was wider known to help more people.”
“My 16-year-old son had resigned himself to a life of eczema because nothing ever worked. From that first Zoom call we both felt the doctor was brilliant. Most of all he listened… really listened. The treatment worked a treat.”

Individual results vary. Treatment is only prescribed after a clinical assessment confirms it is appropriate.
Severe eczema to mild in around two to three weeks
We track every patient's eczema with POEM, a validated 0–28 score that patients complete themselves. These are the results from our audit of more than 1,500 new patients, 2022–2026.
How severe patients' eczema was at each review
Two in three new patients arrive with severe or very severe eczema. Within two weeks, most are clear or mild.

| Review | Patients scored | Clear | Mild | Moderate | Severe | Very severe |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| First visit | 1,571 | <1% | 3% | 31% | 47% | 18% |
| 2 weeks | 580 | 46% | 34% | 16% | 4% | <1% |
| 4 weeks | 299 | 42% | 35% | 19% | 3% | 1% |
| 6–12 weeks | 387 | 32% | 38% | 22% | 6% | <1% |
| 12 months | 167 | 13% | 33% | 30% | 21% | 3% |
Within 2–3 weeks
Of the 580 patients who returned a score at their 2–3 week review:
- 97%saw a meaningful improvement
- 89%halved their eczema score or better
- 84%reduction in the typical score, from 20 to 3
- 46%were clear or almost clear
- 1%were worse than at their first visit
One year on
Of the 167 patients reviewed at 12 months:
- 84%were still better than when they started
- 70%kept a meaningful improvement
- 52%still had their score halved or better
- 46%were clear or mild, up from 4% of these same patients at their first visit
- 89%of those who started very severe were still meaningfully better
The worse the eczema, the bigger the change
Patients with very severe eczema saw the largest improvement, from an average score of 27 to under 8. 99% of them improved meaningfully within 2–3 weeks.
Slow to start? Most still get there
Only 4% of patients hadn't improved meaningfully by their first review. Of those who carried on, 82% went on to improve.
*Figures are from our 2022–2026 outcomes audit of new patients who completed a POEM score at each review. Not every patient returns a score at every review. A meaningful improvement means a fall of 4 or more POEM points, the standard used in major eczema research. POEM bands: 0–2 clear or almost clear, 3–7 mild, 8–16 moderate, 17–24 severe, 25–28 very severe. Individual results vary.
†Around 3,000 is an estimate: 2,380 patients attended 8,000+ appointments on our current booking system from July 2022, plus our estimate of patients seen from April 2020 to June 2022.
Does this sound familiar?
When eczema keeps coming back, you need more than another cream. We look at the whole picture - your skin, your history and what you've already tried - and build a plan around you.
- Steroid creams help, but the eczema comes straight back
- Your child is scratching throughout the night
- You've tried several different creams, soaps and diets
- You've been told to “just moisturise”
- Your eczema keeps becoming infected
- It's affecting sleep, work, school or confidence
Why steroid creams only work for a while
The skin clears, then flares straight back. It's the most common story we hear. There are usually three reasons, and most treatment only deals with one of them.
Treatment stops too soon
Creams are often used for a few days until the skin looks better, then stopped. The inflammation underneath hasn't fully settled, so the eczema comes back.
Bacteria on the skin
Most people with eczema carry Staphylococcus aureus bacteria on their skin, which can keep inflammation going and trigger repeated flares and infections.
The skin barrier never repairs
Dry, cracked skin lets irritants in and moisture out. If the barrier isn't rebuilt, every flare sets up the next one.
What is the Aron Regimen®?
A personalised topical treatment approach developed by dermatologist Dr Richard Aron. Instead of several separate creams, it combines what the skin needs into one preparation, tailored to each patient. Depending on the individual, this may include:
- An anti-inflammatory (topical corticosteroid) to calm redness and itch
- An antimicrobial to tackle bacteria on the skin
- A moisturising base to repair the skin barrier
It is usually applied frequently at first, then reduced as the skin settles. The aim is to keep eczema under control with the minimum treatment needed. It is only prescribed after a clinical assessment, and adjusted at your follow-ups.
Our own results are shown above. Independent published studies of this approach found similar results:
728 patients · Pediatric Dermatology, 2020
- Most of the improvement happened in the first 30 days, and was maintained over the following year (2020 study).
- A separate study of 116 patients reported improvement in most, including around 70% of those who had already used stronger steroid creams (Pediatric Dermatology, 2017).
These are patient case series without a control group, so larger controlled trials are still needed. We review every patient's progress so treatment can be adjusted.
For parents
Most of the patients we see are babies and children. We know how exhausting the scratching, the sleepless nights and the worry are, and we'll take you through every step.
- Babies, children and teenagersWe treat all ages, and involve older children and teenagers in their own plan.
- Relaxed video callsYour child doesn't need to sit still for the whole call. We mainly talk to you and look at the skin when needed.
- Skin looks better on the day?Send photos from a bad day so the doctor sees the full picture.
- Worried about steroids?You're not alone. Rather than using steroid cream neat, the steroid is mixed into a large amount of moisturiser along with the other ingredients. Your doctor chooses the strength for your child's age and skin, explains exactly how much to use, reduces it as the skin improves, and checks progress at 2 and 4 weeks.
- Better nights for the whole familyLess itch means less scratching, and more sleep for everyone.

How quickly will I see results?
Most patients see a big change within 2–3 weeks. In our audit, 97% of patients who returned their 2-week score had improved meaningfully. Individual results vary.
Does it last?
A year later, 84% of patients were still better than when they started, and almost half were clear or mild. Annual reviews help keep it that way.
What if it doesn't work straight away?
That's uncommon: only 4% hadn't improved meaningfully at their first review. Most of those who continued went on to improve.
What is POEM?
The Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure is a short questionnaire about the past week's symptoms, scored 0–28. It is widely used in eczema research and clinics. 0–2 is clear or almost clear, 3–7 mild, 8–16 moderate, 17–24 severe and 25–28 very severe.
Do you treat babies and children?
Yes. We see babies, children, teenagers and adults with persistent, severe or recurrent eczema.
Is the treatment suitable for my baby?
Your doctor assesses whether treatment is appropriate for your child's age and skin, chooses the strength and amounts, and reviews progress closely at 2 and 4 weeks.
Does the Aron Regimen® contain a steroid?
Usually, yes. Rather than using steroid cream neat, the steroid is mixed into a large amount of moisturiser along with an antimicrobial. Your doctor chooses the strength for your age and skin, explains exactly how much to use, and reduces it as the skin improves. Laboratory research (University of Hertfordshire, 2022) found that diluting steroid cream this way reduces how much steroid passes into the skin with each application.
Do I need a referral?
No. Just send us your details or message us on WhatsApp and we'll arrange your consultation.
How quickly can I be seen?
Appointments are usually available the same day.
Will I definitely be prescribed the Aron Regimen®?
Only if your clinician decides it is appropriate after assessing you. Every treatment plan is individual.
How does it work for US patients?
US patients are seen on an advisory basis, and prescriptions are generated by a US-based prescriber where appropriate. A Physician360 fee and pharmacy costs apply in addition to the consultation.
What happens after my first appointment?
Your response is reviewed and treatment adjusted over time. The aim is to keep eczema controlled while using the minimum treatment necessary.
