Clinic-Grade Skincare Manufacturer Melbourne
Epilab is a Melbourne-based contract manufacturer of clinic-grade skincare for medical spas, dermatology clinics, cosmetic clinics, and aesthetic practices across Australia. We formulate, manufacture, fill, and pack professional skincare lines designed for clinic dispense and treatment-room use — all from our GMP-aligned facility in Cheltenham, VIC.
What clinic-grade skincare means
Clinic-grade products sit between high-street retail cosmetics and prescription pharmaceuticals. They use higher concentrations of active ingredients, are positioned for purchase under practitioner recommendation rather than general retail, and require documentation suitable for a clinical practice context. Epilab formulates to this standard across moisturisers, serums, cleansers, masks, post-procedure recovery products, and bespoke clinic exclusives.
For medi-spas, dermatology, and cosmetic clinics
Our existing clinic clients include independent skincare practitioners, aesthetic clinic chains, and dermatology practices that want to dispense a branded product line rather than reselling third-party brands. We work with both established clinics scaling an existing dispense line and new clinics launching their first product range.
Active ingredients we formulate with
Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid, ethyl ascorbic acid, sodium ascorbyl phosphate), retinol and retinoid derivatives, niacinamide, peptides, hyaluronic acid (multi-molecular-weight blends), AHAs and BHAs at clinic concentrations, ceramides, plant-derived growth factors, and bespoke active blends developed to your brief.
GMP-aligned formulation and stability
Clinic-grade products demand rigorous formulation and stability work — high actives are challenging to keep stable. Epilab manufactures to Good Manufacturing Practice standards aligned with ISO 22716 cosmetic GMP, with documented stability testing, microbial safety, and packaging compatibility checks. Every batch is traceable and documented to the standard a clinical practice can stand behind.
Concept to launch in 3-6 months
A typical clinic skincare line moves from initial brief to first production run in 3 to 6 months. Custom-formulated lines take longer than private-label options. We will give you a realistic timeline at the proposal stage based on the complexity of your formula and packaging requirements.
MOQs designed for clinic-scale launches
MOQs typically start at 500 units per SKU, which is well-suited to a clinic dispense launch — large enough to be commercially viable, small enough that your first run does not commit you to inventory beyond your dispense rate. Bespoke arrangements are possible for first-launch development runs.
Talk to us about a clinic skincare line
Brands building clinic-dispense lines often need adjacent categories. See our cosmeceutical page for high-active treatment products, our face serum capabilities, and our body care and deodorant pages for full-range clinic body products.
