Cosmetic dermatology involves understanding the complex interaction between skin health, environmental exposure, and intrinsic ageing.
Dr Scott Allison offers consultations to discuss concerns related to visible skin changes, such as tone, texture, and surface irregularities.
Below are some of the common areas of focus that may be discussed during your consultation.
Collagen Support
Over time, the skin’s natural collagen production slows, which can affect firmness and elasticity. Lifestyle factors — including UV exposure, smoking, and stress — can accelerate this change.
Through doctor-directed skincare programs and selected in-clinic treatments that promote neocollagenesis (the process of new collagen formation), patients can support skin structure and overall quality. Responses vary based on individual skin characteristics and treatment type.
Photodamage and Environmental Exposure
Cumulative exposure to sunlight can cause visible changes in skin texture and tone. Known as photoageing, this process results from UV-induced breakdown of structural proteins such as collagen and elastin.
A tailored cosmetic dermatology plan may include sunscreen use, medical-grade skincare, and non-invasive light-based procedures designed to promote a more even and refined complexion.
Pigmentation and Uneven Tone
Irregular skin colour can occur due to UV exposure, post-inflammatory changes, or genetic predisposition.
Dr Allison provides consultations to evaluate contributing factors and recommend safe, staged approaches to help balance skin tone — including chemical exfoliation, light-based therapy, or pigment-regulating skincare formulations.
Breakout-Prone Skin
Many adolescents and adults experience congestion or breakouts influenced by hormones, oil production, and environmental stressors.
Dr Allison and his team offer consultations to identify contributing factors and discuss appropriate topical or procedural options for maintaining clearer, balanced skin. All treatments are selected based on individual needs, with careful assessment of medical history and tolerance.
