Skin Tightening (Dr Peter Lackner)
Pellevé ™ is a revolutionary non-surgical procedure to safely treat facial wrinkles with virtually no pain and little downtime. Using advanced radio frequency technology, the Pellevé system precisely heats the deep layers of the skin without damaging the epidermis, or top layer. The heat causes the collagen in the skin to contract and tighten. After treatment, the skin begins to produce new collagen, which improves skin firmness. This results in a naturally refreshed appearance.
Unlike other skin tightening systems, Pellevé™ doesn’t require anaesthesia or skin cooling. Patients can expect to feel a deep warming sensation each time the hand piece touches the area being treated. Because the skin is not numb, the patient can describe the depth of the feeling to the doctor, which helps to ensure the best possible results. They can also return to home or work immediately. Side effects may include mild discomfort during the procedure within the treatment area. Mild swelling and redness may also occur and typically go away within 2 to 24 hours after treatment.
Pellevé™ can be used to treat the skin on the face, including the eye area. Many people start to see results after just one treatment, with lasting improvement in skin tightness and tone for up to six months. Because a full facial treatment takes only about an hour with little, if any, recovery time, Pellevé™ fits easily into busy schedules.
For the best results, 3 initial treatments are required 1 month apart, followed by a maintenance treatment every 6 months. 6-monthly maintenance treatments are half the price of initial treatments.
Cost:
- Forehead treatment (Initial): Cost $250.00 (each treatment)
- Peri-Orbital and Crows-Feet (Initial): Cost $250.00 (each treatment)
- Neck (Initial): Cost $300.00 (each treatment)
- Full Face & Neck (Initial): $500.00 (each treatment)

Removal of Skin Lesions using Pellevé ™ (Dr Peter Lackner)
Unsightly benign (non-cancerous) skin lesions, such as skin tags and moles, can be removed with Pellevé ™ providing an improved cosmetic result in comparison to standard removal measures such as excision (cutting it out).
If appropriate, skin cancers can also be removed using Pellevé ™ resulting in a better cosmetic outcome.

Sclerotherapy (Dr Arj Herath)
Injection Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure for treating damaged and unsightly surface leg veins, particularly “Spider Veins”.
Spider Veins are blood vessels that appear blue, purple, or red, and can be a single vein or appear as a cluster. These often occur on the outer thighs, behind the knees, and on the shins and calves. In addition to their undesirable appearance, they can often be itchy and irritating.
Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure in which a chemical solution is injected with a very small needle, resulting in permanent removal of the offending veins after 2-6 weeks. Depending on the number and area requiring treatment, multiple sessions (usually at 4-week intervals) may be required. Each session takes about 30 minutes and is a walk-in, walk-out procedure with no downtime. Compression stockings are required to be worn for up to 10 days after a session of sclerotherapy.
A session of sclerotherapy is priced at $330. The number of sessions required will vary from patient to patient, however, most patients achieve satisfactory results between 2 and 6 sessions, depending on the size of the area requiring treatment.
Depending on the nature of your vein problem, a medicare rebate may apply for your treatments.
Please make a double appointment with Dr Herath to assess your vein health and discuss your suitability for sclerotherapy.
