Laser Facial is an advanced, non-invasive and pain free treatment that is performed using our Q-Switched Yag Laser which targets the deep layers of the skin without causing damage or irritation to the superficial layer. This direct and focused skin penetration provides many benefits including a deep cleansing of the pores, healing of scars, effective treatment of pigmented lesions and reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Laser Facial’s most common application however is for stimulating a dramatic increase in collagen production which in turn stimulates regeneration of cells, leaving you with younger, fresher looking skin without having to go through invasive surgical procedures which can be costly and also associated with many risks and side effects.
Laser Facial treatments can take anywhere between 5 minutes to 30 minutes depending on the skin condition being treated. There is no down time and dramatic results can be seen with as little as 2 treatments. The sensation felt post treatment is often described as a mild flushing of the skin which can last for up to a few hours.
Skin needling is an exciting new treatment which has become increasingly popular due to its effectiveness and dramatic results. Also known as “collagen induction therapy” (CIT), skin needling uses the body’s own natural healing response to overcompensate and produce more collagen, resulting in rapid healing and regeneration of damaged skin.
Skin needling offers a safe and effective treatment for retaining youth and treating acne scars and surgery scars, wrinkles and stretch marks. It can be used effectively on the face, neck, abdomen and chest.
At Victorian Cosmetic & Dermal Clinic, we use clinical strength needling devices that can penetrate the dermal layer by up to 2.0 mm. The treatment can also be used in conjunction with a cosmeceutical product infusion to allow for faster and greater absorption of these products, resulting in an even more dramatic healing response.
Simply put, skin needling lays down new foundations which help improve the surface skin’s appearance, giving it a natural youthful glow.
Low-intensity laser therapy (LILT) is a revolutionary “cold” laser therapy which has delivered remarkable results to our clients since its inception.
Originally used in pain management, LILT therapy has proven to be incredibly effective at regenerating damaged tissue and healing many skin conditions ranging from burns and scarring, to severe acne and stretch marks.
The laser’s main focus of action is to stimulate cell production by emitting a targeted series of continuous focused beams to the treatment area. Within minutes this begins stimulates the repair process and the results really do speak for themselves.
Our German-engineered LILT laser is in a class of its own, and best of all this treatment is completely painless. Because the laser does not emit a thermal or hot laser onto the skin, no sensation can be felt during treatment, meaning the most sensitive of areas can be comfortably treated.
LILT (Low Intensity Laser Therapy) utilises cold laser therapy that does not produce heat or tissue destruction. Various light wavelengths can stimulate a variety of healing, regenerating, stimulating and corrective responses that can stabilize and normalise skin function with no discomfort or downtime.
Photo rejuvenation is a remarkably non-invasive, non-surgical procedure that targets a number of skin concerns including unwanted redness, pigmentation and sun damage. Photo rejuvenation works by using specific wavelengths of light that target and penetrate the deep layers of the skin. These light pulses are then absorbed by damaged cells stimulating the body to heal these areas, allowing redness to subside and skin imperfections such as pigmentation and even freckles to disappear permanently.
Chemical peels are a safe and non-invasive treatment for smoothing, re-texturing and clarifying your skin. They work superficially to refine your skin and clear acne, and by indirectly stimulating collagen to correct underlying pigmentation & sun damage. The difference between chemical peels and other corrective procedures, such as medical microdermabrasion and photo rejuvenation, is that chemical peels allow for a much deeper penetration of the skin resulting in a more pronounced skin solution.
We offer a number of chemical peels ranging from superficial to medium depth penetration. For example, we use Level 1 Very Superficial, Level 2 Superficial, Level 3 Medium Anabolic, and Level 3a Medium. We use active ingredients including alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) such as glycolic, lactic and mandelic acid, and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) such as salicylic acid along with retinoids (vitamin A), niacinamide (vitamin B3) and specific enzymes.
Victorian Cosmetic & Dermal Clinic offers a variety of Chemical Peels to suit almost every skin type and condition and may be customised to provide deeper and longer-lasting results. Depending on the treatment being performed, there may be a little down time however most treatments are extremely comfortable and may even be combined in with a Microdermabrasion or LILT for accelerated results.
Medical microdermabrasion is a safe, quick, and effective treatment that can be used at any age to revitalise and improve the complexion of the skin. Depending on your goals, a microdermabrasion treatment can be completed in as little as 20 minutes, leaving your skin feeling refreshed, soft, smooth and rejuvenated.
Microdermabrasion exfoliates the top layer of dead skin using 3 methods which include mechanical abrasion, gentle vacuum suction to stimulate collagen production and clear congested pores and finally lymphatic drainage. Microdermabrasion treatment allows the epidermis (top layer of the skin) to regenerate leaving you with youthful radiance to your complexion that everyone will notice.
Laser Tattoo Removal can sometimes be a hit or miss treatment depending on a few factors. The most important things to consider when choosing laser tattoo removal are the following:
- Quality of Equipment used. Does it have a proven track record?
- Are the therapists laser safety certified?
- Can the device treat all colours necessary to effectively remove the tattoo ink?
At Melbourne-based Victorian Cosmetic & Dermal Clinic, we use the Medlite C6 Q-switched Yag laser to safely and effectively remove unwanted tattoos. Our unique configuration settings on the device allows us to treat most colours of ink including black, blue, green and other lighter coloured tattoos. All of our therapists are laser safety certified and have had direct accredited training and experience specifically on the device.
This incredibly effective treatment can be performed within minutes and dramatic results can be seen virtually immediately at our clinic in Endeavour Hills, Melbourne. We place a great deal of importance on the comfort and treatment experience of the patient and so we have the option of applying either numbing cream to the treatment area, or have the option to use a thermal cooling device to maximise comfort during your laser tattoo removal treatment.
Let’s face it, excess body and facial hair can be unsightly and embarrassing. Shaving, waxing, plucking and depilatory creams are inconvenient, messy and only temporary. Laser hair removal is faster and safer than any other permanent hair removal method and can treat large areas with each session.
At Victorian Cosmetic and Dermal Clinic, Laser Hair Removal is our specialty. We are one of the very first and longest standing laser and skin clinics in Melbourne to offer this service.
We only use medical grade lasers, not inferior IPL or diode systems like many other clinics in Melbourne.
Victorian Cosmetic & Dermal Clinic only use the FDA & TGA approved Candela GentleLASE system, which is the most advanced and effective laser for hair removal in the world.
The Candela GentleLASE system is a 755 nm alexandrite laser, which can treat a wide range of skin types. Although it can be used for a variety of skin conditions, its main application is for laser hair removal and does so by destroying the hair follicle rather than simply weakening it (which is what happens with other hair removal methods such as waxing and IPL/Diode treatments). Fast, effective and painless results mean that permanent hair removal is achievable using our world class lasers.
We have built our reputation not only on client satisfaction and care, but also on guaranteed results. Our experience is unparalleled having performed over 2,000,000 successful treatments since 2005. All of our therapists are laser safety certified and we have qualified dermal clinicians as well as doctors and certified nurses on board to assist with your treatments to ensure you are in safe and experienced hands.
