Yes. We are abiding by all health requirements from the state and federal governments including floor markings to help maintain a 1.5 metre distance in the reception area and waiting rooms, as well as a 10-person maximum in clinic. Please attend your appointment alone wherever possible to help minimise the number of people in clinic. During your treatment you will be in a room with only you and your technician or medical expert who will be wearing protective equipment, including a face mask and gloves and practicing safe distancing wherever possible.

To assist us in maintaining safe social distancing, please attend your appointment alone. If you are new to the treatment, arrive just 10 minutes before your appointment and if you have had the treatment before, arrive just 5 minutes before your appointment.

We want to reassure you that at Australian Skin Clinics, all our staff are highly trained through our national education academy, which ensures we uphold best practice treatments and safety control protocols at all times. All team members have completed the Australian Government’s COVID-19 Infection Control Training, as well as holding the most stringent qualifications for their respective dermal, laser or medical field.

You will continue to see us maintain the same safe environment as we have always done, and also meet new health and hygiene standards by:

• Following safe distancing of 1.5 metres in our reception and waiting rooms
• Following a strict hand washing protocol using anti-bacterial liquid before, during and after every treatment
• Implementing temperature checks for both clinic staff and clients
• Using medical-grade disinfectant to wipe down all surfaces and equipment between every client
• Wearing new gloves for the duration of every treatment and changing regularly
• Wearing face masks and PPE where appropriate
• Providing hand sanitiser to clients in waiting rooms
• Following strict sterilisation protocols on all of our equipment, including high pressure heat, no touch techniques and complete item separation
• Sterilising all stations, rooms and floors daily

We ask you to help us maintain a safe environment for everyone by:

• Providing accurate and up to-date-contact details for your client file
• Attending your appointment alone to allow for safe social distancing in clinic
• Arriving 10 minutes before your appointment if you are new to the treatment
• Arriving just 5 minutes before your appointment if repeating a treatment
• Rescheduling your appointment and staying home if you are showing any symptoms or signs of illness

Queensland and South Australian clients who previously had an appointment booked over the closure period will be contacted shortly to reschedule. Future appointments already booked will continue as scheduled and clients will receive a confirmation notification prior to their appointment time.

For all other states and SA skin & laser bookings: If you have an appointment in the coming days and week this will be cancelled automatically.  We will continue to cancel appointments on a weekly basis until the Australian Government advises we can reopen.  You will not lose any treatments due to a cancelled appointment and we will pick up where we left off as soon as we reopen.

While services remain suspended due to Government restrictions, refunds are not available. You can learn more about your consumer right guarantees here at the ACCC’s Coronavirus Information for Consumers. 

For more information, you can review the Australian Skin Clinics Refunds & Cancellations Policy and the ACCC guidelines.

Please note that if you no longer wish to attend an appointment due to concerns about COVID-19, this may be treated as a ‘change of mind’. Please email info@australianskinclinics.com.au if you require further clarification.

For Queensland clients, please contact your treating clinic directly. For all other states, if you have questions about a treatment that requires a medical expert, please email ascmedical@australianskinclincs.com.au We will respond to all enquiries within a 24 hour period.   For general questions and enquiries please use the following email address; info@australianskinclinics.com.au

We have extended all current and future series by an additional 6-months.  This is just one thing you don’t need to worry about.  We will set these aside ready for you to pick up where you left off when we reopen.  Extensions will be considered ongoing if necessary.  We will continue to keep you posted on any developments in this area.

Don’t worry, any results you have already achieved won’t be reversed.  However naturally, any delay in your treatment schedule may delay further results. Once clinics reopen, our team of skilled laser technicians will review your treatment plan and timings to ensure you get back on track and achieving the best results.

Whilst you’re in clinic treatment plan is on hold, you can still maintain your results at home. Continue your skincare routine as set out by your dermal technician. If you are unsure, keep watching our social posts for tutorials and tips on the best way to maintain your skin through homecare products. If you run out of product you will be able to order these online for as long as postal services remain.
