Facial peels are skin treatments designed to refresh, renew, and refine your skin. Formulated with clinical strength actives, these peels are tailored to target specific skin concerns while promoting
a healthier, more youthful complexion.

*Suitable for treating congested pores, pigmentation, uneven tone, and fine lines
*Minimal downtime – most people return to normal activities shortly after

Mild redness or flaking post-treatment is common.

For best results, a series of treatments is recommended to reveal smoother and brighter skin with improved texture and clarity.

The 3 main types of Skin Cancer are:
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) – About 2 out of 3 skin cancers
Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) – About 1 in 3 skin cancers
Melanoma – About 1 in 100 skin cancers

BCC and SCC are also known as non-melanoma skin cancer or keratinocyte cancer. They are the most common skin cancer and make up about 99% of skin cancers. Over 1 million treatments are given each year in Australia for non-melanoma skin cancers.

Melanoma starts in the melanocytes and makes up 1–2% of all skin cancers. It's a serious type of skin cancer because it's likely to spread to other parts of the body, especially if not found and treated early. Australia and New Zealand have the highest rates of melanoma in the world.

With sun protection and early detection, skin cancer is a preventable condition.

Nearly all skin cancers are directly related to your exposure to the sun, so when you protect your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays you reduce your risk. It’s never too late to start protecting!

In NSW, the UV is high enough to damage your skin for over 10 months of the year. Regardless of the time of day or time of the year or the weather, whenever the UV index is 3 or above, make sure you're sun protected.

Although skin cancer affects many Australians, with sun protection and early detection, skin cancer is a preventable condition.

You've been applying sunscreen to protect your skin from the harmful UV rays, have you been doing the same to your lips?

Your lips are one of the most vulnerable areas to sun damage. Unlike the rest of your skin, they lack melanin, making them more susceptible to harmful UV rays which can lead to serious conditions like lip cancer.

But don’t worry - we’ve got you covered.

Our Lip Balm SPF50+
*Shields against UVA/UVB
*4 hours water resistant
*Soothes dry and chapped lips
*Free of flavours and fragrance

Contact us today to keep your lips hydrated and sun-safe.

Nicotinamide is a water soluble and active form of vitamin B. It improves cellular processes like repair of DNA after sun exposure. It may reduce the negative effects of UV on the immune system of the skin.

Studies show it reduces the rates of new non-Melanoma skin cancers (BCC and SCC) and Seborrheic Keratosis (SK) in high risk patients.

Change is the earliest sign of skin cancer before it becomes advanced enough to be detected clinically. However, doctors cannot detect these subtle changes during routine skin checks.

To detect changes, something like a previous photo is required for comparison. Most of the times, there's no such photo to compare with.

Artificial Intelligence assisted Total Body Photography fills the gap in analysing photos and identifying changes. It assists in the detection of skin cancer in its earliest curable stages when it is evolving but not advanced enough clinically for the doctor to detect.
