WHAT WE DO

Helping you achieve healthy and beautiful skin 

General medical & cosmetic appointments

A time to discuss your skin concerns and cosmetic options and have a routine skin check.

At the very core of our business is supporting local practitioners by providing them with facilities and services to allow them to practice traditional medicinal and diagnostic dermatology coupled with cosmetics. On a daily basis, the doctors we support, sees their patients for rashes, general skin concerns, skin checks, pre-cancerous and existing cancerous lesions and cosmetic requests.

The practitioners consulting from The Skin Centre run their general clinics weekly from Monday through Friday and treat all manner of skin concerns. Bookings are essential, however they do at times have cancellations and may prioritise urgent cases. Bookings can be made via calling (07) 55971 7170, emailing reception@skincentre.com.au or using the booking form on our contact page.

Referral from a GP or other medical professional is preferred but not essential. Patients seeing one of the specialist Dermatologists we support without a referral will not be eligible for the Medicare rebate and will be required to pay an out of pocket amount. For more information on your practitioners fees and terms of service, their dedicated fees and terms, can be viewed here.

mohs micrographic surgery

The Gold Coast’s First Dermatologist to perform Mohs Surgery

Named for its inventor, Dr Frederick Mohs, it was first established in the 1930s but has only been widely practiced since the 1960s, when the process was modernised by Dr Perry Robins of New York. Mohs Micrographic Surgery is considered the gold standard in the treatment of certain skin cancers including basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell.

Mohs surgery is designed to help achieve the best cosmetic outcome for patients having cancerous lesions removed. This same-day procedure helps to minimise scarring and ensure all cancerous are removed in one surgical session.

Dr Andrew Freeman is the Gold Coast’s first Dermatologist to be qualified to perform Mohs Micrographic Surgeyn and does weekly outpatient procedures at Pindarra Private Hospital on the Gold Coast. You can watch our Mohs Explainer video by clicking the link below.

Acne Clinic

Your dedicated source for Acne support

Access to specialist services can be difficult and when acne is impacting on your self esteem the wait can be distressing. Whilst it can affect anyone of any age, it tends to be more common in teenagers. With school hours from Monday and to Friday, taking students out of class to see their dermatologist can be disruptive. With busy working schedules, leaving work to talk about acne is seemingly impossible. With this in mind, Dr Andrew Freeman has created a specialist acne clinic on a Saturday to service his acne patients who aren’t able to attend during the week.

Dr Andrew Freeman (also known as The Urban Dermatologist) has an Acne series on his YouTube channel which may be useful with some generalised Acne content. If you’re suffering with adolescent or adult acne, we’d encourage you to attend his dedicated weekly acne clinic, conveniently scheduled on a Saturday.

So don’t delay, make an appointment to see Dr Andrew Freeman at The Skin Centre today.

 

Scar & Cosmetic complications clinic

Sometimes a little more attention is required.

Scars come in many forms and are the consequence of number of different conditions, for instance acne, accidental trauma or from the removal of a skin cancer. Certain skin types and ethnicities are more prone to scarring and the approach to treatment must be carefully designed to prevent further damage. From white to dark, depressed to raised, scars can be itchy or just cosmetically displeasing. The practitioners consulting from The Skin Centre have established a special clinic to make their patients scars both look and feel better, utilising the full range of injectables, cosmetic peels, laser and light technologies we provide to your practitioner, as well as their surgical know how.

Furthermore, as trends in aesthetics change, requests for revision of previous procedures such as overfilled lips and faces have increased. Using a combination of clinical examination and ultrasonography your practitioner is here to help you address your cosmetic misadventures. So if you have filler you want dissolved, make an appointment to see your practitioner today.

 

hair loss

Addressing all your hair loss concerns

Hair is important to both men and women and the loss of it can be extremely upsetting. Whilst there are some forms of hair loss that are temporary and will recover without treatment, others are progressive and would benefit from treatment sooner rather than later. 

Along with skin and nails, dermatologists are experts in hair. The practitioners we support understand how frightening it must be to experience excessive hair shed or to see a receding hair line whilst waiting for an appointment with a doctor. The practitioners consulting from The Skin Centre we have established a specialist hair clinic to deal with such issues as quickly as they can.

Make an appointment to see your practitioner today by calling (07) 5597 7170 or email reception@skincentre.com.au
