Cosmetic Skin Care

Healthy skin is a timeless sign of youth, vitality and wellbeing. You need to look after your skin.

At the About Face Cosmetic Surgery Clinic we use Cosmedix skin care products as an adjunct to other cosmetic  procedures. We stock the full range of Cosmedix products. Cosmedix skin care is unique as natural ingredients are chirally corrected to increase effectiveness thereby improving the skin condition. Chiral correction is a purification process that removes the “bad” that is harmful or ineffective and uses the “good” that actively works.

We have a comprehensive range of cosmetic treatment options to help refresh and maintain your skin, and reduce your risk of developing skin cancer. You may contact our team for a consultation to help explain which treatment may be suitable for you and your individual skin condition.

Laser resurfacing is a powerful tool to reduce wrinkling. It is ideal for the lines under the eye and laugh lines.
