WELCOME BACK MELBOURNE! Getting your groove back yet?
May Update: We are currently very short staffed in the admin area and are having some intermittent issues with our phone and/or internet lines as we navigate a new NBN connection. Please send an email to drteska@skintemple.com.au if you have any trouble getting through or are the kind of Office Manager we are desperately in need of right now! HIRING NOW!
It was a bumpy start to the year, thanks to Omicron all round, but we’re really looking forward to a new normality. Most Covid screening measures have now been removed (for patients anyway) and we’re now trying to focus on doing what we can, rather than what we can’t. If you’re eligible but unvaccinated against Covid19, we are now also offering dedicated Wed afternoon sessions. Vaccinated but immunocompromised patients should continue to attend at other time sessions to minimise exposure risk.
Autumn is now here..and that means chemical peel and vein treatment season! Acne and pigmentation are other common problems to treat in autumn. Please reach out and let us know what’s bothering you. We love to fix problems!
Still working remotely and struggling with the Zoom Gloom effect on your skin? We get it, and we have several tips and tricks to help you look your best on and off camera! Need professional assistance?
RAT testing (a very imperfect science)for patients is no longer required at Skin Temple, although staff are required to be tested intermittently each week.
The 2022 flu vaccines have now arrived and we encourage everyone to book in for a flu vaccination appointment. Now that the international borders have reopened, we are seeing a very rapid increase in flu variants circulating the globe once more..and that doesn’t mix well with Covid-19 variants, even Omicron.
All government vaccines are supplied free of charge, including catch up vaccines for teens who may have missed Gardasil due to home schooling.
For our regular acne patients, access to LED services continues and review consultations can now take place via teleconferencing or preferably still in clinic face to face. Skincare products can be ordered via email or phone, although prescription products still require a medical review every 3months.
Dr Teska is also an approved Medicare provider of Mental Health Care Plans, and can provide teleconsultations for anyone in need during this crisis. Our area of special interest extends to Adolescent Mental Health and we would love to offer support to any youth going through difficulties at this time.
Our hours of operation have changed for the rest of the calendar year. Please phone ahead if unsure. We are always closed on Mondays!
We are open Tuesday to Thursday, and Friday/Saturday appointments are now available on the 1st Fri/Sat of each month, with extra days added as we get closer to mid and end of year holiday season.
Skin Temple continues to provide a comprehensive medical service, with 7 different lasers, LED, Ultherapy and a complete range of injectables, including leg vein sclerotherapy.
On the other hand, our hammam has never looked more inviting, or been cleaner, and we have devised some affordable packages that we’re sure will be appreciated by those looking for a little escapism this year. Perfect for luxury self isolation! Please take a look at our social media posts and remember to follow our pages for instant updates.
Just a reminder too, that Skin Temple does not offer any decanted or diluted filler. 100% Pure, unadulterated filler may be more expensive but is far less likely to migrate!
