Age Spot Removal

Intense pulsed light (IPL) reduces age spots: returning a more even colour and texture to the skin.
Age spots typically occur on the face and hands and are caused from sun damage years before they appear. Fading creams seldom have any effect, however laser treatments and intense pulsed light (IPL) are effective to remove unsightly spots and return and even colour to the skin.

Advantages of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL, S IPL) in removing age spots.

Intense Pulsed light treatments are an effective, affordable and safe means of removing age spots and have several advantages over older laser technologies.

IPL selectively damages unwanted spots, leaving normal skin unharmed: there is no downtime or prolonged healing

IPL stimulates collagen production in the skin: rejuvenating the skin complexion and texture as it removes pigmentation.

Rosacea Skin Care

Treatment of Rosacea starts with a good skin care plan and includes use of various prescription only skin treatments which require supervision by a Doctor.

Rosacea Skin care plan

1. Cleanse with a gentle water based cleanser such as Cetaphil.
2. Treatment active choices: 1-2 % BHA (salicylic acid), topical metronidazole gels or azelaic acid.
3. Moisturise with a gentle moisturiser
4. Sunscreen in the morning: Non-chemical sunscreen that contains only zinc oxide or titanium dioxide as rosacea tends to be very sensitive to chemicals.

Could it be Rosacea?

Rosacea is not fun. It is a stubborn skin condition that is difficult to treat and affects a large number of Australians with fair skin. It sneaks up slowly: starting as a tendency to blush and progresses until eventually there is permanent dilation of blood vessels.

Rosacea effects a large number of fair skinned people - Skin Revision Brisbane

Signs of rosacea- do you have one or more of the following?

1. Redness of face affecting nose and cheeks first but spreading to affect all areas.
2. Pimples and papules (red raised bumps) that resemble acne.
3. Bulbous enlargement of nose called rhinophyma (Think of Rumpole)
4. Redness of eyes and eyelids, with a gritty feeling. (ocular rosacea)

Effective management of rosacea begins with a skin treatment plan and Intense Pulsed light treatments.

How much does Hyperhidrosis cost you?

I found a great resource article on the International Hyperhidrosis website Sweathelp. It is a questionnaire on the financial cost of hyperhidrosis.

The question - “if you weigh up how much excessive sweating costs in day to day living, perhaps it will help make the decision on affordability of hyperhidrosis treatment options easier”.

International Hyperhidrosis Website Questionnaire.

If you are trying to decide whether you can afford the expense of hyperhidrosis treatments use the questions below to figure out how excessive sweating currently affects your finances.

Perhaps, by spending money on treatments, you may be able to save in other areas.

• Dry-cleaning and stain removal?
• New shirts, dresses, shoes, socks, or other clothing?
• Over-the-counter antiperspirants, deodorants, or powders?
• Pads, ”shields“, towels, or materials to absorb perspiration?

Also consider your job and employment opportunities.

Has excessive sweating affected your income or your potential for career advancement?

Has it affected your personal or social life?

These costs are hard to measure but you may find that the money spent on treating hyperhidrosis is worthwhile because of the improvement to your quality of life.

At our clinic in Brisbane, we treat people with excessive sweating of the underarms. Primary hyperhidrosis responds well to injections, however if you have an underlying cause it is important that this is correctly diagnosed and treated.
