Hey, I’m Emily, founder of The Acne & Eczema Clinic. As a qualified Naturopath, having served thousands of clients across the globe, I know better than most that the undeniable core of healing lies in the health of the gut. Lisa from Quay Aesthetics also knows this truth, given her background in the medical professional and the countless clients she sees, just like you, who have dietary habits and symptoms that are contributing to problem skin.
It is no mystery that the health of the gut is intrinsically tied to the health of the skin, and has far reaching effects on systemic health and wellness. Healing the gut therefore has far-reaching benefits, and should be a primary focus.
This is why I’ve created the Restore & Renew Program: A 4-month restorative journey to heal your skin from within (among all the other amazing benefits of great gut health!), and why Lisa has integrated this program into her holistic skin treatments.
During this program, we aim to renew the very cellular function of the gut with nutrigenomic changes achieved through diet and very specific supplemental support. We accelerate the process with a short juicing window, complete with recipes and shopping list. You will receive dietary support through education and a collection of my favourite recipes, resource lists, educational videos and journal prompts to track your progress and changes throughout the program. These are all aspects that Lisa herself can’t provide in her capacity as a dermal clinician, and why she’s teamed up with me to help give you all the tools, resources and actionable steps necessary to create the changes within that are needed to see positive changes in the skin. Combined with your treatments by Lisa, you will be giving your body the best it deserves from the inside out, which can naturally lead to less inflammation in the skin, more collagen production, better nutrient absorption and availability, and better regulation of those pesky stress hormones that can wreak havoc on the skin and disturb the healing process.
During the program, we also look deeply at the relationship we have with our food, what habits we have that are helpful and harmful, and work to rebuild our connection with our body, mind and spirit by consciously renewing our commitments to Self and our everyday habits. This is something Lisa loves to put a focus on with her clients in the face-to-face environment as well, which is why we work so well together.
Let me tell you a little more about this program and how it can work for you in your skin healing journey…
I created the Restore and Renew program to help people just like you, who know that something needs to change WITHIN but are not quite sure where to start OR who to trust.
I have poured a decade of my clinical experience into this program.
Over 16 weeks:
We shed a light on where you’re currently getting too much of things that damage our health and our guts, and not enough of the things that help to heal and nourish a healthy gut.
We build healthier habits, a better understanding of what to focus on for a more nourishing diet.
We go super deep on gut healing, on a cellular level, with the help of a very targeted protocol that I use day in and day out in the clinic to help those with problem guts and problem skin.
We are what we do every day. This program is designed to make sure that’s actually creating health not harm, and gives you the best internal support to create habits that will support your skin during (and long after) your program with Lisa.

The Restore & Renew Program
The program starts with a short 1:1 phone consultation with me, to understand where you're at and what your goals are for the program.
I then create a personalised prescription to support you through the program. Lisa and I also discuss how you are presenting to ensure that any prescriptions she provides you are congruent with what we are doing in the program, and that we are both on the same track with how to best support you. All items you require during this gut program will be posted to you, free of charge. It is also an option to have these items collected from the Quay Aesthetics clinic at your next appointment. Lisa is able to provide you with the E/FA Pure that you will need during this program (of which this program includes 2 bottles, though her prescription of how much you need may be altered during your treatment with her).
We complete the program with a short 1:1 review consultation and by tracking how your biomarkers have changed throughout the program - so make sure you book in for your review appointment at completion so we can do this!
Over the 4 months you will have an online program to follow with learning materials to watch and read before you begin implementation. The course material compliments your 1:1 consultation advice, the included Juice Cleanse and Meal Plans, and covers the following aspects of renewing your gut health:
Week 1 - Assessment of your current gut health status
We can only figure out where we're going when we know exactly where we are. This week, we are starting off nice and easy by identifying what your current dietary habits look like, and how you are feeling on a day to day basis. This is important fundamental information that helps us to dissect our relationship with food next week.
Week 2 - Unpacking your Habits, Rewards & Analysing Consumption
This module is all about how we create unhelpful dietary habits, why they can be difficult to break with "willpower" alone, and what the most addictive and harmful foods are for the gut which we are focusing on reducing and releasing this month. You will also have time in self-reflection to journal about what you are over-consuming and why with all this newfound knowledge!
Week 3 - Understanding the role and implications of sugar and alcohol on the gut
This week is all about understanding why we are releasing certain foods, and this week's focus is the most common culprits: sugar and alcohol.
Week 4 - How processed foods and caffeine affect the gut
This week is all about understanding why we are releasing certain foods, and this week's focus is what fills most people's day to day diet: processed foods and caffeine.
MOdule 2
How The Gut Works, What Can Go Wrong & What’s Needed To Heal.
You'll learn about nutrigenomics and exactly what your prescription is doing to the cellular health of your gut. The very title of this program comes from this information - we are restoring the ecology and environment of your gut by renewing the cellular function of your epithelial (AKA gut lining) cells.
module 3
Accelerating the results you seek, through the power of nutrition.
This gives you access to my exclusive Juice Accelerator program, which is a 3-day cleanse and nutrient booster. This is optional, but I highly recommend that you complete it and revisit it if you start to feel sluggish, heavy or "back to square one" at any point in the future.
Week 6 - Nutrigenomics & Foods to Focus On
This week I am teaching you about nutrigenomics, and exactly how the prescription items you are taking are helping to restore the cellular function of the gut. It's super important that we are supporting this healing work with a supportive diet, and since we have made more room on our plates for healthy foods by removing ones that cause harm, we are now going to explore what we need to fill up on in order to encourage health and healing.
Week 7 - How to Plan Your Plate
We've looked at what food you need to avoid and include for a healthy gut and your prescription is now in full swing to support cellular restoration. Let's now focus on how to redesign our lives and our plates moving forward so that we can create healthy habits that last the distance, long after this program is over.
Week 8 - Pantry Staples & Substitutes
The last part of our RENEW module is renewing what you reach for in the shopping centre, and at home. Let's cover some great pantry staples and substitutes to get you started.
Week 12 - Symptom Review
Let's look at what's changed on a physical level since starting this program. Remember, we still have a month to go and positive changes just continue to progress the longer we stick to helpful food and healthy lifestyle choices, so your symptoms may continue to improve up until and long after this program finishes.
module 4
Re-assessing how far you have come in the course of the program, what symptoms have changed, and what habits you are going to commit to in order to maintain these positive changes long after this program is over.
Week 13 - Meal Planning Moving Forward
Let's cover some of my favourite resources to keep you inspired by and hungry for helpful food so that you can start to envisage how you will keep up your renewed food focus long after you complete this program.
Week 14 - Supplements or Food
Learn what's jam-packed into your current prescription so that you can learn how to get more of this goodness from your food choices and keep the healing work going.
Week 15 - Commitments to Self
We covered some of this way back in the Realise & Release Phase (Module One), and this time we are looking at what kinds of promises we have to ourselves and can make to ourselves that are in service of our needs, so we can put your self-care and needs at the top of our priority list.
Week 16 - The Finish Line
You did it! Let's connect to compare how things have changed, and see what the next steps are for you with your highest health and wellbeing goals at the forefront.
MEAL PLANS & RECIPES
Whilst a lot of the content is focused on what to release, I don't want you to feel like you're left with an empty plate so I’ve included 44 of my best wholefood recipes, meal plans and the shopping lists to go with them, which I hope help you to fill your body with more nutritious items.
BONUS MODULE
ADRENALS & GUT HEALTH
If you are someone who drags your feet without caffeine intake, this bonus module is for you! Learn a little more about adrenal health so that you can start to understand what your body is actually trying to tell you through the fatigue that you are masking with caffeine.
Program Results
I want to share the stories from previous clients who have gone through this gut program in case they resonate with where you are now.
One of my clients came to me suffering with patches of eczema on her elbows that she would scratch until they bled. She also had intense bloating which caused her so much pain and frustration she would often find herself crying whilst holding her distended belly. She had tried a bunch of things already, including FODMAPs dieting and seeing not one but three gastroenterologists over the years, and had a history of intense antibiotic use. The core of her treatment involved the very nutrigenomic changes that we work through together in this program. Within 2 months her bloating was so reduced she actually bought a size smaller in her pants, and hadn’t even realised how much of her body shape was attributed to the distension she was feeling. She could sleep on her side again and have her husband rest his head on her tummy while they relaxed in the evening without wincing in pain and asking him to move.
When we work on affecting change within the cells, we optimise their innate function which can have a dramatic impact on our gut and our skin. It’s always at the core of the work that I do to target cellular health, because without cells functioning properly, everything else is a bit of a band aid solution.

“The biggest change for me was actually feeling like my gut was functioning normally for the first time in my life, and that’s been life changing. I really started to understand and be able to change my connection with food based on all that I learnt in the program. I loved learning about the deeper workings of my body, all the recipes and especially all the information about self-care.
This wasn’t a course for the moment or a particular symptom, it was a course for life. I’ve walked away with so much valuable knowledge about how to care for myself, and I couldn’t be more thankful.”
Why learn from me?
I have been in private practise for almost ten years, and in that time I’ve gone from being a general clinician, treating a lot of gut health problems, to refining my focus to be specifically on my special interest areas of acne and eczema. I created my trademarked Clear Skin Formula to cover all the things that need to be healed in order to get clear skin, and good gut health is a major foundation of it.
As my waiting list got longer in my clinic, I realised that I was working with people who hadn’t even done the foundational stuff with their diet and habits that was so essential to achieving changes with their skin and their health overall.
I do this very same work with my private patients and so many of them got amazing results just by incorporating this information and the nutrigenomic support.
I saw how important it was for me to make this more accessible, not just for improving the skin but also for the common gut symptoms that so many of my patients and the general public suffer with, that can be helped so easily by addressing your current habits, especially around food, and being equipped with the evidence-based knowledge to improve them.
When I moved into my specialist niche area of skin health, some of my patients from my previous clinic were upset with me that I was no longer working on gut health like I had for so many years. I had achieved such great results with so many patients, I felt like I was almost doing them a disservice by focusing solely on skin as well – especially given that gut health forms a major foundation of skin health (and my Clear Skin Formula). I realised I could serve both purposes – help people build the foundations of healthy skin, healthy habits, healthy eating, and healthy guts – with the one program: Restore & Renew.
Whether you’re needing this program to get a head start on healing your skin, resolving gut symptoms, improving digestion, reducing inflammation, boosting your mood and energy, building better dietary habits and learning more about how to actually nourish yourself, or all of the above, I know it’s going to be a game changer for you.
