Consultation & Skin DNA Testing
As a qualified Dermal Therapist I will not only assess your skin but also your lifestyle & wellbeing as these factors can play a part in extrinsic and intrisic ageing of the skin. During your consultation I can create a tailored care plan based on your individual needs and requirements. Alternatively undergo our once in a lifetime SkinDNA test. It tests your skins genetics to all 5 causes of ageing and their 16 associated markers. Its like looking into a crystal ball and seeing into your skins future to prevent ageing.
SkinDNA™ takes the guesswork out of skin care instead using science to identify the most suitable skin ingredients and treatment modalities based on your DNA. At its core, SkinDNA™ uses the correct ingredients and treatment modalities to effectively target your genetic blueprint and ensure you never waste a single cent again on products or treatments that don’t work for you! Testing includes..
​
1. Firmness + Elasticity: Identify if you are a carrier of key genetic variations associated with accelerated collagen loss even before the signs have become visible
2. Wrinkling: Not often discussed, Glycation affects collagen and elastin fibres and is now well recognised as a leading cause of accelerated skin aging
3. Sun Damage + Pigmentation: The sun’s UV rays are one of the most significant causes of premature skin aging. An individual’s genes play an important role in determining how well their skin can naturally cope under the strains of the sun
4. Free Radical Damage: Scientists now believe that free radicals are causal factors in nearly ever known disease, from heart disease to arthritis, cancer to cataracts. In fact, free radicals are a main culprit in the aging process of the skin itself
5. Sensitivity + Inflammation: Excessive inflammation is one of the most common themes in early onset skin aging. While it is a helpful response in the short term, if inflammation continues, it can play a negative role. Often subtle, the signs include skin sensitivity, redness and irritation

Once the swab has been taken we send it off to the lab and will recieve results in 2 weeks time.
