Skin Cancer Clinic

Our Doctors pride themselves on early detection, treatment and management of skin cancer. We offer full skin checks, spot checks and emergency appointments. We have several different methods of treating skin cancer. For example, photodynamic therapy (PDT) and medical creams can sometimes replace the need to cut out certain cancers. In other circumstances we may freeze or excise cancerous lesions. Our Doctors lead by example and will always give you an honest, professional opinion about the state of your skin.

Cosmetic Clinic

Over time Dr Candler has added cosmetic services alongside his skin cancer treatments. Our doctors, nurses and dermal therapists are on hand to give you the best advice possible when it comes to cosmetic treatments and procedures. We have a doctor on site at all times for our cosmetic injectables, and we offer advanced treatments like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for skin rejuvenation, arthritis and hair restoration, skin needling for rejuvenation and scarring and IPL treatments for rosacea, pigmentation, sun damage and rejuvenation.

We have multiple modalities to treat acne and acne scarring, including our TheraClear machine and Nd:YAG laser. We also now offer an extensive range of laser treatments including: hair removal, skin tightening for the face and body, fractional ablative treatments and leg vein and facial vein treatment. Unique, specialty laser services we offer include tattoo removal, snoring treatment, nail fungus treatment and female urinary incontinence treatment.

We can treat many skin conditions and concerns including acne, rosacea, sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles, sun spots, enlarged pores, sagging skin, plantar warts, veins, moles and more.

We use a range of professional skincare products in the clinic for our skin cancer and cosmetic patients. We stock Allmedic, O Cosmedics, Cosmedix, Aspect Dr, ASAP and Young Blood mineral make up.

We invite you to schedule a consultation with one of our professional staff members to explain and recommend what treatments and products are best suited to your skin.
