Common Concerns
Skincare concerns are as varied as the human beings who have them! Finding the most appropriate treatment can be difficult if you don’t know exactly what you are looking for.
Luckily, our expert laser and dermal technicians can help you identify the cause of your concerns and recommend a treatment plan tailored to suit your specific needs. Having a technician who understands your skin? Priceless.
Acne
Acne is considered an obstructive disorder of the skin and can be caused by any number of factors.
Ageing Skin
The natural ageing process plays a key role in the appearance of our skin over time.
Pigmentation
As soon as we are exposed to sunshine, we begin to see the emergence of freckles and a darkening of the skin (a sun tan).
Broken or Dilated Capillaries
These tiny, reddish blemishes occur when the capillary walls expand and contract too quickly.
Scarring
The four main types of scars are acne scars, hypertrophic scars, contracture scars and keloid scars.
Excessive or Unwanted Hair
If you have excessive hair on any part of your body, or your simply prefer to be silky-smooth, we have treatments that can help.
Freckles
Freckles are small spots of color on the skin that can be a few distinguishing colors such as brown, red or black.
Teeth Grinding
Sufferers from teeth grinding (particularly while asleep) can wake-up with sore teeth or an aching jaw.
Lines and Wrinkles
Lines and wrinkles are caused by movement of the facial muscles and a combination of ageing and sun damage or weight loss.
Stretch Marks
Stretch marks, or striae, occur after a period of intense growth where the skin is stretched rapidly.
Sun Damage
Sun damaged skin is simply a fact of life in Australia but fortunately, there are treatments that can help.
Redness and Rosacea
General redness and rosacea are common conditions, often caused by dilated capillaries.
Blackheads
Commonly misunderstood, and therefore mistreated, blackheads are in fact a form of acne.
Under-Eye Bags
The eye contour has the thinnest and most sensitive skin on the entire face – often resulting in dark under-eye bags.
Dry Skin
Whether it’s caused by an underling skin condition, ageing or other factors, having dry skin is an incredibly common concern.
Double Chin
Sitting just underneath the jawline, submental fat, or double chin, is usually caused by ageing, genetics or weight gain.
Melasma
There are many factors that can cause abnormal pigment in the skin. One of the most common is melasma (or chloasma).
Loose and Sagging Skin
Loose or sagging skin can be a major problem as we age. Somehow our skin just doesn’t bounce back like it used to!
Open Pores
Open pores are usually the result of ageing and loss of elastin in the skin, which causes the pore to open more widely.
Thinning or Uneven Lips
Sadly as we age, our gums and bones recede causing our top lip to drop, turn inward and look thinner.
Shaving Rash
Shaving rash is an itchy and uncomfortable side effect of shaving. The solution? Laser hair removal.
Excessive Sweating
Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) is a condition most commonly seen on the soles of the feet, palms and underarms.
Smile Lines
At some time or other we all end up with deeper lines that run from the sides of our nose to the corners of our mouth.
Facial Volume Loss
As skin fibres start to break down and the skin loses its support system, lines and wrinkles can become a permanent feature.
