The Skin Lab

Wow. Very professional, knowledgeable and I’ve now been twice for laser treatments and of course I can tell the difference and that why I went back again. Amazing reduction of fine lines, wrinkles and really tightened up my skin. Fab staff and very well trained. What a find!!!!!

Approximate cost: $2500

Previous visits were good. Haven't been for 18 months or so and went for a check up recently. Mainly for skin cancer check, psoriasis review and a few facial laser zaps. Normal doctor has left (I can see why now)

Big shock was the twenty minute IPL treatment. $350!!. Total bill was over $500 - previous visits were less that $180 after rebate which I am pretty sure they processed onsite.

Now no facilities for automatic rebate - the receptionist only had very vague idea of how much it would be and basically was not concerned - I think it was an irritant to her to be questioned about it.

So, on top of the $500 plus, I now have to chase up with Medicare at my own expense and time.

Previously I was very happy with Skin Lab and thought their main concern was health. Not sure what happened but they seem more concerned with revenue now. Wont be back - maybe Thailand next time? Certainly not with this mob anymore. Over priced, under professional.

Approximate cost: $550

I have been visiting The Skin Lab for some time now for beauty treatments and have found them to be professional and friendly. They are part of a dermatology group that offers the more cosmetic solutions. I had tried IPL here and the machine is fast and seems to be effective. Dr Jenkins is really calming and friendly to deal with. As I have entered my 30's I went in recently for a anti aging consult because I knew I could trust her advice. Where other skin specialists might have suggested I have Botox unnecessarily she honestly told me it wasn't time yet and she didn't see the need to take my money unnecessarily. I really value this honesty and will be sure to go back as I need their services.
