Founded in 2005 by medical doctor Dr Bradley Wagemaker and entrepreneur Tony De Barros, Lamelle Research Laboratories has grown into a beacon of scientific excellence within the South African skincare industry.
What began as a small biotechnology research lab has grown into a pioneering force in medical-grade skincare, driven by a mission to create high-performance, evidence-based solutions for real skin concerns using ingredients and technologies others have not dared to explore.
At the heart of the brand is Medical Director Dr Bradley Wagemaker, whose extensive background in dermatology, endocrinology, and clinical medicine informs formulations designed to work at a cellular level. Alongside him, Sales & Marketing Director Tony De Barros brings an entrepreneurial edge, shaping the brand’s vision and positioning it as a trusted, professional name in skincare.
Together, they have built a brand that blends rigorous medical science with strategic innovation. Lamelle is known for being first to market with advanced technologies in areas such as retinoid science, pigmentation correction, barrier repair, and acne management.
More than just a skincare brand, Lamelle is rooted in clinical proof and long-term skin health, focusing on addressing the root causes of skin concerns rather than surface-level symptoms. This commitment to science-led results and premium brand experience has earned international recognition, including being named Best Luxury Beauty Brand in South Africa at the 2025 International Luxury Lifestyle Awards.

- In-clinic Lamelle chemical peels
- Barrier-repair programmes
- Structured six-treatment skin journeys
