Treatment
At Dermatology Junction, we are committed to providing personalised care that addresses your unique dermatological needs. Our compassionate team is dedicated to enhancing the health of your skin covering a spectrum of treatments, that encompass medical skin concerns, surgical procedures, and aesthetic treatments.
Cosmetic Nurse Consultation
Our experienced cosmetic nurses offer personalised consultations to discuss your aesthetic goals and recommend the most suitable treatment options for your skin concerns.
​
A 30-minute consultation is $50, which is redeemable against your first treatment should you decide to proceed. Please note that treatments are not performed during the initial consultation your treatment will be booked for a later date to ensure a tailored and safe approach.
​
Our nurses can assess and treat a range of concerns with the below treatment options
Anti-Wrinkle Injection
Anti-wrinkle injections are designed to target specific facial muscles, reducing their activity and addressing the creasing of skin caused by facial expression contractions.
These injections are effective in preventing the formation of expression lines that may develop over time due to continuous muscle contraction. The commonly treated areas include the frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and the delicate skin around the eyes.
​
Furthermore, by skillfully adjusting the dynamics and interactions between facial muscles, we can also achieve aesthetic improvements. For instance, elevating the mouth corners can be achieved by reducing the downward pull of the depressor anguli oris muscle, while lifting the brows can be achieved by reducing the downward pull of the orbicularis oculi muscle.
At Dermatology Junction, we offer a diverse selection of Anti-Wrinkle Injections that cater to various needs, including:
​
-
Crow's Feet
-
Frown Lines
-
Forehead Line
-
Non-surgical Brow Lifting
-
Downturned Lips
-
Lip Flip
-
Gummy Smile
-
Masseter/Jawline slimming
-
Nose Scrunch Lines
-
Excessive Sweating/Hyperhidrosis
-
Teeth grinding/clenching
Step-by-step:
-
Consultation: to determine injection points and required volume
-
Facial Photography: Photodocuments to capture different facial expressions, are taken before each treatment and during follow-up appointments.
-
Thorough Face Cleaning: Before treatment begins, we prioritize careful face cleaning using antiseptic to remove makeup and skin pathogens, creating a clean canvas for the procedure.
-
Assessment and Marking: The muscle movements in the targeted area(s) are carefully assessed, and injection points are marked to ensure precise placement of the anti-wrinkle injections. These markings may also be documented for future reference.
-
Precise Injection: Our expert practitioners administer the anti-wrinkle injections using a fine needle and syringe to those marked areas.
-
Post-Treatment Cleansing: After the injections, the skin is cleansed again with antiseptic to remove any blood or markings, leaving the treated area clean and ready for recovery.
IPL
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses pulses of light to treat various skin conditions, such as sun damage, acne scars, rosacea, age spots, and spider veins. IPL can also improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity, as well as reduce unwanted hair growth.
​
At Dermatology Junction, we offer customised IPL treatments for different skin types and concerns. Our experienced and qualified nurses will assess your skin condition and recommend the best IPL treatment plan for you. IPL treatments are safe, effective, and have minimal downtime. You can expect to see visible results after a few sessions, depending on your individual needs and goals. To learn more about IPL treatments or to book a consultation, please contact us today.
​
Step-by-step:
-
Consultation: The first step is to consult with our experienced nurse to determine if IPL is suitable for your skin type and any concerns you may have. The professional will assess your skin and recommend a treatment plan.
-
Preparation: Your skin will be thoroughly cleaned. A dark eyeshield will be given to protect your eyes. Cold gel is applied to treating areas to lubricate your skin and to enhance soothing effects.
-
During treatment: a handheld device is passed across the skin’s surface delivering pulses of broad-spectrum light to the deep layers of the skin. The procedure takes approximately 30-45 minutes.
Microneedling
SkinPen microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that uses an TGA approved medical device with small needles to create tiny channels in the skin.
This process is designed to stimulate the skin's natural healing response and accelerate collagen production, which can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, pigmentation and other skin concerns.
​
Step-by-step:
-
Consultation: The first step is to consult with a trained SkinPen professional to determine if the treatment is suitable for your skin type and any concerns you may have. The professional will assess your skin and recommend a treatment plan.
-
Preparation: The skin is thoroughly cleansed, and a numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to minimize any discomfort during the procedure.
-
Treatment: The SkinPen device is moved over the treatment area, creating tiny microchannels in the skin. This medical-graded device uses a disposable cartridge containing tiny, sterile needles that penetrate the skin vertically. The needles oscillate rapidly, creating microscopic punctures that stimulate the skin's natural healing process.
-
Post-treatment care: After the SkinPen treatment, the treated area may be red and slightly swollen. It is essential to follow up with prescribed skincare, avoid direct sunlight and wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher to protect the treated area. Makeup should not be applied for at least 24 hours after the treatment.
-
Follow-up treatments: The number of treatments required varies depending on the skin concern and the individual's skin type. However, typically, a series of three to six treatments spaced four to six weeks apart is recommended for optimal results.
TCA CROSS
TCA CROSS stands for Trichloroacetic Acid Chemical Reconstruction of Skin Scars. It is a type of chemical peeling method used to improve the appearance of scars, particularly acne scars. The acid is precisely applied to the scarred area to stimulate collagen production and promote skin cell regeneration. The goal of TCA CROSS is to fill in depressed scars and create a smoother skin texture. It is a minimally invasive procedure that requires multiple sessions for optimal results, and should only be performed by a licensed and experienced professional.
​
Step-by-step:
-
Consultation: A consultation with a licensed professional is needed to determine if the treatment is suitable for you. Photos will be taken for records. The treatment is very well tolerated and does not require topical anaesthesia.
-
Skin preparation: The skin is cleansed and prepped to ensure that it is free of any makeup, oil, or dirt that could interfere with the effectiveness of the TCA.
-
TCA application: A small amount of TCA is applied to the scarred area using a fine-tipped brush. The TCA is carefully placed only within the boundaries of the scar and not on the surrounding healthy skin.
Aftercare:
The treated area may appear white and scabby for a few days after the procedure. The dermatologist will provide aftercare instructions, including moisturizing the area and avoiding sun exposure.
The number of treatments needed varies depending on the severity of the scars and the patient's individual response to the treatment. Typically, a series of 3-6 treatments, spaced several weeks apart, is needed for optimal results. It is essential to follow the aftercare instructions provided by the dermatologist to avoid complications and ensure proper healing.
For an optimal result, we recommend combination modalities to follow up with after TCA treatment, which includes:
-
SkinPen needling
-
Peels.
-
Appropriate skincare routines.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are a type of non-invasive skin treatment used to improve the appearance of the skin. During a chemical peel, a solution of one or more chemicals is applied to the skin, causing the outermost layer to peel off and reveal newer, smoother skin underneath.
There are several types of chemical peels offered, including glycolic, mandelic and citric acid peels, and the strength of the chemical solution used will depend on the severity of the skin condition being treated.
​
Superficial peels use mild acids, such as low concentration glycolic Acid,, to exfoliate the outermost layer of the skin. They are generally used to treat fine lines, mild acne, and uneven skin texture.
Medium peels use stronger acids, such as salicylic acid, higher concentration glycolic Acid or trichloroacetic acid (TCA), to penetrate deeper into the skin and treat more severe skin conditions, such as deeper wrinkles, acne scarring, and sun damage.
Deep peels use the strongest acids to penetrate the deepest layers of the skin and address the most severe skin conditions, such as deep wrinkles, scars, and precancerous growths.
Ask us about our Aspect Power Peel specifically to address UV damage from a blend of Kojic Acid, Mandelic Acid, Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Retinol and Emblica.
The benefits of chemical peels include improved skin texture and tone, reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and diminished acne scarring and dark spots. However, chemical peels should only be performed by a licensed and experienced skincare professional, as they can cause skin damage and complications if not used properly. Aftercare instructions, such as avoiding sun exposure and using a good quality sunscreen, are crucial for optimal results and safe healing.
​
Step-by-step:
-
Consultation: A consultation is needed prior to treatment to determine skin concerns and suitability.
-
Skin preparation: The skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, oil, or dirt.
-
Application of the chemical solution: A chemical solution, such as glycolic acid, is applied to the skin using a brush. The strength of the solution used will depend on the type of peel and the severity of the skin condition being treated.
-
Timing: The solution is left on the skin for a set period of time, determined by the type and strength of the peel. During this time, patients may experience a warm, tingling sensation or mild discomfort.
-
Neutralisation: After the desired time, a neutralising solution is applied to the skin to stop the action of the chemical solution.
-
Post-treatment care: The skin may be red and sensitive after a chemical peel, so it's important to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your nurse. These may include avoiding sun exposure, using a gentle moisturiser, and avoiding any harsh or abrasive products.
Fractional
CO2 Laser
Fractional COâ‚‚ laser treatment is a cutting-edge skin resurfacing procedure designed to enhance skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. Unlike traditional fully ablative COâ‚‚ lasers that remove the entire outer skin layer, fractional COâ‚‚ lasers create precise microthermal zones, leaving surrounding tissue intact. This innovative approach accelerates healing, minimises downtime, and significantly reduces the risk of complications such as hyperpigmentation and scarring. By stimulating natural collagen production, this treatment effectively restores firmness, smoothness, and a youthful glow.
​
At Dermatology Junction, we utilise the Fraxis Duo, an advanced system that seamlessly integrates COâ‚‚ fractional laser technology with radiofrequency microneedling, to target a wide range of aesthetic concerns. Our Fraxis Duo fractional
COâ‚‚ laser treatment is ideal for addressing:
-
Uneven skin tone and texture

2. Preparation: *Please note that darker skin types may require 2 week skin-prep with tyrosinase inhibitor prior to treatments*
Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed to remove impurities. To maximise comfort, a topical numbing cream will be applied before the procedure for treatments with more severe conditions.
3. Treatment: Using the Fraxis Duo with appropriate settings, fractional COâ‚‚ laser is meticulously applied to the targeted areas. The laser energy creates micro-injuries in a fractional pattern, triggering collagen production while preserving the surrounding tissue for quicker healing and enhanced skin renewal.
4. Post-Treatment Soothing & Aftercare Guidance: A soothing cream and cool air will be applied to calm the skin and minimise redness. Our experienced cosmetic nurses will provide detailed aftercare instructions, including sun protection, hydration, and suitable skincare products to support your recovery.
