Services and Treatments

General Practitioner - Tokai Skin

Regular skin check-ups are the cornerstone of preventive dermatology. Our comprehensive examinations involve a thorough assessment of your skin, scalp, and nails, allowing us to detect early signs of skin cancer, melanoma, and other skin conditions.

Through routine screenings, we aim to catch potential issues in their earliest stages when they are most treatable, ensuring your skin remains healthy and radiant.

Diagnosis and treatment of Skin conditions such as eczema, fungal infections, psoriasis or acne. Individual treatment plans will be discussed and referrals made if necessary. Biospies can be performed if uncertain of the cause for assistance in diagnosis.

Uneven skin tone, sunspots, and melasma can impact your confidence and self-esteem. Treatment plan will be customized to address your unique concerns.

Through targeted interventions, we aim to reduce pigmentation and restore a more even, youthful complexion

Scars can be a lasting reminder of past trauma or injury, but they don’t have to define you.

There are scar treatment options, including microneedling, corticosteroid injections, and surgical revision techniques, to minimize the appearance of scars and improve skin texture.

Through customized treatment plans, we aim to restore your skin’s natural beauty and boost your confidence.

Skin tags are common, benign growths that can occur on various areas of the body. While they are harmless, they can be bothersome or cosmetically displeasing.

We perform safe and effective skin tag removal procedures, such as cryotherapy, electrosurgery, and surgical excision, to eliminate unwanted tags and restore smooth, blemish-free skin.

Benign skin lesions including moles, cysts and seborrheic keratosis can detract from your skin’s appearance and cause discomfort. We are equipped for the removal of these lesions using minimally invasive techniques, such as excision, punch biopsy, cryotherapy or electo-cautery

With precision and care, we safely remove unwanted lesions to improve skin aesthetics and alleviate any associated symptoms

Cancerous skin lesions may be excised if small and not on the face or hands (these will be referred to plastic surgeon) All suspicious lesions must be sent to the lab for full analysis and to ensure entire lesion has been adequately removed. If melanoma is found further referral will be required for wide local excision with a plastic surgeon.

We utilize cryotherapy techniques to treat a variety of skin conditions, including warts, actinic keratoses, and seborrheic keratoses. By targeting specific areas of concern, we can effectively remove lesions and promote healthy skin regeneration.

Using Liquid Nitrogen

Cryotherapy involves the application of liquid nitrogen to freeze and destroy abnormal or unwanted skin cells.

Wound care and suturing of minor injuries can be done at our practice.

Aesthetic Treatments

My Aesthetic consult will always start with a thorough skin assessment and treatment plan prior to any procedures or treatment. I will educate and guide you on all you need to know to achieve your overall best skin outcome and aesthetic result. We will work slow and I am considerate of you budget. I always strive for natural looking results and long term skin health. It won’t always be a quick fix but rather a skin journey to achive the best results

Botulism Toxin (such as Botox) is an example of a substance that’s injected into your skin to make it look smoother and younger. Antiwrinkle injections relax the muscles in your face, so wrinkles disappear for a while. It’s mostly used to get rid of lines around your eyes, frown and on your forehead.

The effects last for a few months. Some people also get Botox injections for medical reasons, such to help with migraines or sweating too much. But it’s important to have it done by a professional to make sure it’s safe and works well.

Filler injections are used to add volume and reduce wrinkles in the skin. Hyaluronic acid ,which is natually occuring throughout the body, is injected beneath the skin’s surface to fill in lines and hollow areas, like those around the jawline, nasolabial folds, chin and cheeks. 

There are many types of dermal fillers, which can be used in a variety of ways from volume to hydration depending on the desired result. Results are temporary, lasting several months to a year. 

I have a variety of different fillers available to suit all budgets and desired results. Full skin consult if needed to have any filler performed. I always strive for natural looking results and will not overfill or create puffy faces

Chemical peels are a cosmetic treatment used to improve the appearance of the skin. During a chemical peel, a chemical solution is applied to the skin, causing it to exfoliate and eventually peel off. This process removes dead skin cells and stimulates the growth of new, smoother skin. 

Chemical peels can help reduce wrinkles, improve skin texture, and even out skin tone. They are often used to treat acne scars, sun damage, and age spots. The intensity of the peel can vary, ranging from mild to deep, depending on the specific skin concerns being addressed. Recovery time also varies accordingly. It’s important to have chemical peels performed by a qualified professional to ensure safety and optimal results

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure where fine needles puncture the skin’s surface, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin rejuvenation. It’s effective for improving scars, wrinkles, acne, hairloss, pigmentation and skin texture. 

Medical microneedling allows for the addition of added ingredients, which would be tailored to your skins need. These enter through micro-channels created by the microneedle allowing for better penetration and effectiveness. It may require multiple sessions for best results. Following post-treatment care is essential for safety and optimal outcomes.

Dermapen 4 is used 

Skin boosters are cosmetic treatments that hydrate and improve skin quality by injecting hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and other nutrients. They enhance skin hydration, elasticity, and collagen production, reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars for a smoother, radiant complexion. Treatments are spaced out over weeks or months for gradual, long-lasting results, tailored to individual skin concerns and goals. Treatment will be tailored to your specific skin needs.

General Practitioner - Tokai Skin

I always take a holistic approach and ensure we have enough time to discuss your concern.  I will assess symptoms, perform examinations, diagnose illnesses, and provide treatments or referrals as needed. I also offer preventive care, health education, and counselling.

These consultations serve as the starting point for managing various health issues and promoting overall wellness.

Prescriptions and medications are key parts of healthcare. During a consultation, a healthcare provider may prescribe medications tailored to a patient’s needs.

Prescriptions detail the type, dosage, and usage instructions. Patients will obtain their medications from their pharmacies and follow usage guidelines carefully. Regular follow-up is often needed to monitor effectiveness and make adjustments as necessary.

Referring to specialists is standard in healthcare. When I encounter a medical issue beyond my expertise, I will refer patients to a specialist. Specialists have advanced training in specific areas like cardiology or neurology. I am able to expidite appointments for urgent issues

The process involves the GP sharing medical information with the specialist for a thorough assessment and tailored treatment plan. Collaboration ensures comprehensive care and optimal outcomes. Follow-up consultations with the GP may be needed for ongoing coordination and monitoring.

Minor surgical procedures are common medical interventions done in outpatient settings with local anesthesia. 

Examples include mole removals, skin biopsies, cyst removal, abscess drainage, cryotherapy and wound suturing. I will use sterile techniques and specialised instruments for precision.

You can typically return home shortly afterward with minimal recovery time. It’s important to follow pre- and post-operative instructions for optimal outcomes and to reduce complications.
