- Texture sensitivity linked to reactive skin
Benefits

The Process
Step 1: Initial consult
At our Southbank clinic near Melbourne’s CBD, we assess triggers, medications, skin type (including Fitzpatrick level) and sensitivity. We set realistic goals, map treatment zones, and outline aftercare and a supportive home routine.
Step 2: Treatment
Most sessions take 15–30 minutes. You may feel brief warmth or a light snapping sensation as energy targets superficial vessels. A course of sessions is usually planned for progressive improvement.
Common, temporary effects:
- Mild redness or swelling for 24–48 hours
- Occasional darkening of tiny vessels before they fade
- Transient tightness or dryness
Step 3: Aftercare
Immediately & first 48 hours
- Keep skincare simple: gentle cleanser + soothing, non-fragranced moisturiser
- Avoid heat (sauna/steam), alcohol, spicy food and intense exercise the first day
- Apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ if outdoors
For 1 week
- Pause strong actives (retinoids, high-% acids) unless advised
- Do not pick or scrub any transient flaking
Ongoing
- Daily SPF and barrier-supportive skincare to maintain results
- Identify and minimise personal triggers (heat, sun, wind, certain foods/drinks)
- Maintenance sessions may be recommended to sustain clarity
Note: If you have a diagnosed skin condition (e.g., rosacea), we’ll tailor parameters and may perform a test spot first. Strict sun care is essential to preserve results.
