Treatments

AviClear™ is the first and original TGA-approved energy device for the treatment of mild to severe acne.

 

AviClear™ uses the power of laser light to selectively target and suppress sebaceous glands. Eliminating acne at the source without the need for prescription medications.

How does AviClear™ work?

Acne forms when sebum, the oily substance on your skin, combines with dead skin cells and clogs your pores. Most acne treatments target other things that cause acne, but not the production of sebum.

92% of patients treated with AviClear™ saw at least half of their acne resolve at 12 months following treatment. And results may continue to improve with time — even several months after your treatment sessions are finished (AviClear.com, 2024).

Here, at your Hobart Acne Clinic, we are able to provide you with a personalised acne treatment where you create your own care package. This can include HydraFacial®, Dermalux blue light LED therapy, medical grade skin care acne packages and medical photography that allows you to follow your acne clearing journey and see your progress unfold.

 

 

Key Benefits

  • Treats mild, moderate and severe acne
  • NO medications
  • Reduce your breakouts and improve your complexion clarity.
  • Find improvement in skin textures.

Number of treatments

Three 30-minute treatments, one month a part.

 

What to expect

Is AviClear™ painful?

AviClear™ uses a skin cooling sensory control called AviCool™ sapphire that is designed to keep the skin at a regular temperature during treatment and therefore a more comfortable and safe experience for our patients. We do offer other means of pain relief, for example, a water-based numbing cream, which is discussed further in your initial consult if required. Patients who undergo AviClear™ may experience a sensation like a slight snap or what has been described as a static shock during the treatment.

The treatment is patient driven and centred, we have created a welcoming and comfortable environment to ensure patient comfort.

What is the downtime?

Some patients may experience swelling with or without pustules for as little as a few hours or up to a few days post-treatment. Dryness and itchiness can occur that may last a few weeks, which is where the importance of skin care to the patient will  be noticed. Acne flare ups or 'purging' has the potential to occur after each AviClear™ treatment.

Having a good understanding of skin care is important after treatments to decrease irritation, and prevent scratching and potential of acne scarring. This will be discussed in your initial consult and we provide support and skin care options if the patient does not yet have their own regime.

Results are typically seen at least 3+ months after the third treatment. This timeline can differ per patient and results can be seen at 6 months with further improvement at 12 months.

Aftercare

Having a good understanding of medical grade skin care and a personal routine is required in your aftercare. This will be discussed in your initial consultation where support is also provided if the patient wants to begin or change their skin care regime. Hobart Dermal Aesthetics stocks three medical-grade skin care ranges with two being dedicated to acne care, Biretix and ZO Skin Health.

Introducing EMFACE®

Tasmania’s premier facial tightening and lifting procedure, that targets both skin and muscles simultaneously in just a 20-minute session, with no needles and no downtime - return to your daily routine immediately after the procedure. 

NOW treating FOUR key areas:

1. Forehead:

    • Targets the frontalis muscle. Responsible for forehead movement and eyebrow position. Lifts brows smooths horizontal lines, and opens the upper eye area.
    • Results in a brighter, more awake appearance.

2. Under-eye:

    • Targets the orbicularis oculi muscle to lift and firm the lower eye area. Aims to improve puffiness, dark circles, fine lines and crepey skin
    • particularly beneficial for early signs of ageing and tired-looking eyes.

3. Cheeks:

    • Works on the zygomaticus major muscles, which are essential for cheek structure and smiling. Lifts and volumises the mid-face, softens nasolabial folds, improves the appearance of jowls, and enhances cheekbone definition.
    • Great for those who experience facial hollowing or sagging due to age related fat and collagen loss.

4. Submentum (double chin):

    • Targets the platysma muscle, which runs down the neck and jawline. helps to tighten sagging skin , improve jawline definition, and reduce the appearance of a 'turkey-neck' or loose skin.
    • Can assist in the mild reduction of fat in the area for chin and neck contour.

Natural Volume Restoration

As we age, the face naturally loses fat and muscle tone, often resulting in a hollow, tired, or drooping appearance. EMFACE® helps restore natural volume by strengthening facial muscles and stimulating skin regeneration - plumping tissues without the use of foreign agents. Giving your face its youthful support structure back.

Results are individual.

How EMFACE® works

  • Radiofrequency (RF) gently heats the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin, improving firmness, elasticity and overall skin quality.
  • HIFES technology contracts and strengthens the delicate facial muscles that lose tone over time, triggering the regeneration of new muscle fibres and rebuilding weakened ones.

Together, these technologies are designed to lift and sculpt the face, reduce wrinkles, and enhance facial structure.

Pricing & Frequency

EMFACE is recommended at least 1 session a week for 4 - 6 weeks.

Every session includes a mini facial, the 30 minute EMFACE® treatment followed by an Enzyme mask.

What is Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)?

Photo Dynamic Therapy is a medical treatment that uses a combination of a photosensitising cream and specific wavelengths of light to treat various conditions, including superficial basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in situ (Bowen’s disease).

Two treatments are required, seven days apart. A cream is applied to your skin, before being activated by an LED light. The activated cream selectively destroys only the skin cancer cells. This means that side effects such as scarring are minimised and healthy tissue surrounding the lesion is not affected.

PDT can produce excellent cosmetic improvements, as well as removing the problem cells. It is used when other treatments or surgery are considered unnecessary or unacceptable.

 

How does Photodynamic Therapy Work?
  • Administration of Photosensitising Agent:

Patients will have the lesion prepped and the cream applied. The cream is not active until it is exposed to LED light.

  • Absorption of Photosensitiser (cream):

The photosensitising cream is absorbed by the targeted cells, accumulating selectively in the abnormal or cancerous tissues. A wait time of three hours is required.

  • Irradiation with Light:

After the three hour incubation period, the drug is absorbed, the targeted area is exposed to light of a specific wavelength. This activates the photosensitiser, leading to the production of a photochemical reaction.

  • Cell Destruction:

The cancer cells absorb the light sensitive medicated cream. A light is then applied to the area where the cancer is. The light causes the drug to react and produce a type of oxygen that kills the nearby cells. 

 

Advantages of Photodynamic Therapy
  • Minimally Invasive:

PDT is a minimally invasive treatment, reducing the need for extensive surgery.

  • Targeted Treatment:

The photosensitising cream selectively accumulates in the targeted cells, minimising damage to surrounding healthy tissue.

  • Reduced Side Effects:

Compared to some traditional treatments, PDT often results in fewer side effects.

  • Versatility:

PDT can be used to treat a variety of conditions, making it a versatile therapeutic option.

 

What is suitable for PDT?
  • Superficial basal cell carcinomas (BCC's)
  • Bowen's disease (squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in situ)
  • Actinic keratosis (solar keratosis)

PDT is not suitable for deep basal cell cancers or squamous cell skin cancers. This is because the light cannot go deeply enough into the skin.

 

During the treatment

You may feel a stinging or burning sensation in the treatment area when the light is on. A fan or painkillers can be used to make the treatment more comfortable. 

You can have more than one skin cancer treated at a time. 

 

After treatment

A scab forms where you had the treatment and you have a dressing in place to cover it. A steroid cream may be applied on the treatment area. This helps to reduce any itching.

The scab usually heals in about 3 weeks. 

The light sensitising cream makes the treated skin more sensitive to sunlight. We recommend that you wear sunscreen of SPF 50+ for at least 72 hours.  You might need to avoid bright light or sunlight for a time. This is because all your skin may be more sensitive to sunlight.  

 

Side effects of PDT

The treated area might have some inflammation. It may look pink, red and swollen. The site might also ooze or develop a crust. This should get better after a few days. But if you are worried contact Hobart Plastic Surgery.

 

Pricing

For 1 lesion  (two sessions) $900 total

For 2 lesions (two sessions) $1300 total

For 3 lesions or more (i.e. field area) (two sessions) $2,000 total

All LED light sessions of PDT take 20 minutes, and all have a final review appointment by our surgeon after 3 months (bulk billed appointment).

PDT is performed using a photosensitising cream and Dermalux Tri-Wave LED machine.
