Our Unique Approach
Thrive Skin Clinic is passionate about providing evidence based treatments for age management and skin concerns that address the full spectrum of skin anatomy, including the metabolic and hormonal aspects of your general health. We have a holistic approach, integrating traditional dermatology protocols with functional medicine, advanced dermal and laser devices & cosmetic medical treatments.
Our clinicians are hand picked according to a commitment to education, evidence based treatments and their passion for natural results. We are very proud to have a very experienced clinical team- all of our clinicians have completed post graduate education in their chosen fields. This sets us apart as a clinic with a firm foundation of excellence, evidence based treatments and a medical clinic you can trust to deliver professional services that will be in your best interests, with a meaningful outcome.
We have a shared belief that the quality of your skin is the most important aspect of beautiful skin as you age- you won’t age well, or look natural, if you focus on injectable treatments that just freeze and fill.
We prioritises skin health first and foremost- encouraging our patients to develop a consistent medical grade home care routine and to begin the skin journey with dermal therapy or injectable treatmenst that correct specific concerns and support long term collagen production. This skin first approach means that our patients maintain their own unique look.
“Real skin change starts with a clear plan and the consultation is the most important step of your journey. ”
Our 3 Tiered Consultation Approach:
We offer 3 types of consultation, depending on your concerns, what type of treatments you want and the degree of information and expertise you require from your clinician. Clinical Photography, formal consent and quotation are performed prior to all treatments. Please note that some treatments require skin preparation before they can be safely commenced and that not all treatments are suitable for all people. As a medical clinic, offering we make an effort to customise your treatments so you get the best results for your investment. If we feel you require a formal consultation with Dr Grant, will let you know. However our staff are highly competent and experienced clinicians who work with Dr Grant on an ongoing basis.
