Dermal Consultation with VISIA Skin Analysis

What to expect

During your initial consultation, your clinician will conduct a thorough examination of your skin. This involves assessing your skin type, identifying specific concerns (such as acne, pigmentation, or ageing), and understanding any existing medical conditions that may impact your skin health. Based on the assessment, your clinician will create a customised treatment plan tailored to address your unique needs. Your clinician will also discuss skin care advice and may recommend products to you to enhance your at home skin care routine.

You may also wish to have VISIA images taken during your consultation. VISIA gives you the most accurate picture of your overall skin health. VISIA can show underlying sun-damage, vessels, oil production and spots. The machine can also provide an age-simulation based on your skin health as well as a 3D model of your face for accurate analysis.

FAQ’S

What is VISIA skin analysis?

VISIA facial skin analysis utilises an advanced aesthetic device to capture high-resolution images of your skin from multiple angles. With its multi-spectral imaging, VISIA provides a detailed assessment of your skin’s health and type, uncovering imperfections such as wrinkles, UV damage, dehydration, redness from rosacea and uneven texture.

What are the benefits of a VISIA skin analysis?

Our VISIA skin analysis in Wollongong is a thorough assessment of your skin, examining the surface and underlying layers of the epidermis. Here are its key benefits:

  • Personalised treatment plans — VISIA zeroes in on what your skin needs, giving you clear, data-driven insights before you invest in advanced treatments or skincare products. This way, you’re making smarter choices that truly benefit your skin type.
  • Progress tracking — VISIA helps you monitor your skin’s progress over time. These insights allow you to tweak treatments and adjust your skincare regimen for even better results.
  • Laser treatment preparation — VISIA identifies any underlying skin issues that might need attention prior to laser treatments. This extra step helps ensure safe and optimal outcomes.
What skin conditions can a VISIA skin analysis help with?

Our VISIA facial skin analysis in Wollongong helps us uncover various skin concerns, including:

  • Texture issues — Identifies wrinkles, enlarged pores and fine lines to inform treatment plans that enhance skin texture, tone and firmness.
  • Sun damage — Evaluates melasma, brown spots and deep pigmentation, guiding targeted treatments for sun-related damage and overall complexion improvement.
  • Inflammation — Identifies redness from rosacea, spider veins and broken capillaries, guiding solutions to soothe sensitive or inflamed skin.
What will my treatment plan look like?

Your treatment plan will be customised to your skin’s specific needs, as revealed by the VISIA facial skin analysis. Whether you’re addressing redness, oiliness or common signs of ageing, we may suggest a mix of skincare products, in-clinic treatments and lifestyle changes. Together, we’ll create a regimen that targets your concerns, with ongoing adjustments to keep your skin looking and feeling healthy.

How often should I get a VISIA skin analysis?

The frequency depends on your skincare goals. It’s wise to schedule one whenever you’re considering a new treatment, like chemical peels or laser therapy.

When starting a new skincare routine, we suggest a follow-up after two to four weeks to assess how your skin responds. For ongoing treatments, check-ins every four to six weeks are ideal to monitor your skin’s progress. For maintenance, a yearly VISIA session is perfect for adjusting and fine-tuning your regimen.
