Skin Consultation & Analysis
Why Is A Skin Consultation So Important?
A face to face consultation is a very important and paramount first step to achieving results. Analysing and assessing the skin thoroughly provides us with the background to the lead contributing factors causing a patients skin concerns. From there, we can then plan a specific and customised treatment plan to treat each patients individual skin concerns and prevent these concerns from returning.
What To Expect During Your Skin Consultation
During a consultation we thoroughly assess the skin visually, physically (with touch), scan the skin with our diagnostic imaging tool (to view the depth of the skins concerns and any other underlying factors), take medical photographs and collect vital medical and skin related information which will shape the treatment plan.
Diagnostic Skin Analysis Tool
Do you really know your skin?
The skin is much more complex than what can be see with the naked eye – that’s why we use our diagnostic imaging device for professional skin analysis. With advanced analysis technology we can view blemishes, fine lines, dryness and uneven skin tone in depth. This allows us to better understand your unique skin concerns to treat existing imperfections, and even address underlying concerns before they become visible. This also a great tool to track your skins progress illustrating changes in the skin over the duration of treatment in clinic.
