The Medispa at The Plastic Surgery Clinic offers non-surgical skin treatments at our North Shore and Norwest clinics, part of the practice of Specialist Plastic Surgeon Dr Chaithan Reddy (FRACS Plast). Treatments are carried out by our medical team, including registered nurses trained in cosmetic injectables and skin therapy. Choose a treatment below to learn more.
Non-surgical treatments we offer
- Medical grade skin care: product ranges only available through medical professionals, used to build a home routine and to maintain the results of in-clinic treatments.
- Medical peels: exfoliating treatments that remove the outer layer of dead skin cells to help improve the appearance of fine lines, pigmentation and blemishes.
- Healite LED light therapy: light delivered at set wavelengths, used on its own or after surgery or laser as part of recovery care.
- Anti-wrinkle treatments: target specific facial muscle groups to soften dynamic lines such as frown lines, forehead lines and crow’s feet.
- Volume restoration treatments: address volume loss in areas such as the cheeks and lips, and lines such as the nasolabial folds.
Your first appointment
Every treatment starts with a consultation. We ask about your skin history, medications and goals, look at the area of concern and explain which options may suit you, how many sessions are usually involved and what downtime to expect. Some injectable treatments use prescription medicines, so they can only go ahead after an assessment by an appropriately qualified practitioner.
When surgery may be the better option
Non-surgical treatments can soften lines and improve skin quality, but they cannot lift loose skin or remove excess tissue. If your concerns relate to skin laxity of the face, neck or eyelids, Dr Reddy can discuss surgical options such as a facelift, neck lift or eyelid surgery. Some patients combine the two, using medispa treatments to care for their skin before and after surgery.
Risks and results
All cosmetic treatments, including non-surgical ones, carry risks. Depending on the treatment, these can include redness, swelling, bruising, infection, changes in pigmentation and, rarely, more serious complications. Results vary from person to person, and many treatments need to be repeated to maintain the effect. We will explain the risks that apply to you before any treatment goes ahead.
