Laser Treatments
Laser Treatments
We use lasers to treat:
- vascular blemishes and birthmarks
- large facial vessels and facial redness (rosacea)
- red noses
- freckles and irregular pigmentation
- dermal pigmentation
- sun damage and wrinkles (skin rejuvenation treatments)
- red stretch marks and scars
- tattoo removal
Our dermatologists can advise you what laser treatment is appropriate for your condition and how many treatments are likely to be needed. They can also give you an estimate of costs involved.
Our Lasers
At Malvern Dermatology and Medical Laser Clinic we only use properly calibrated, TGA approved medical grade lasers. These lasers are specific for haemoglobin (blood inside surface veins and capillaries) and pigment. When we laser the skin, the laser energy is taken up by surface blood vessels and pigment, so we get good results with little risk of damaging surrounding tissues.
Our lasers have inbuilt cooling or are used in conjunction with a Zimmer cooler, which cools and protects the skin whilst minimizing discomfort. Most treatments are between fifteen and thirty minutes. Some tattoo removal treatments will take less than five minutes to complete. (Much faster than having them done!)
Improvement is evident after one treatment but for best results most patients will need two to three treatments. Port wine stains (vascular birth marks) and complex tattoos will require more treatments.
