Starship Children's Health runs general paediatric dermatology clinics supervised by dermatologists for children referred by their GP.

 

A dermatology nurse specialist provides education and sees eczema patients for education.

 

There are also tertiary specialist paediatric dermatology clinics for children from around New Zealand who are identified as having more complex problems. This includes genetic skin disorders, vascular anomalies and severe eczema/psoriasis requiring systemic treatments. 

 

The dermatology service also provides minor outpatient procedures (e.g. local anaesthetic biopsy) and laser treatment for facial port-wine stains.
