Skin and laser treatments at The Skin Project

Skin and laser treatments are a category of non-surgical cosmetic procedures designed to address various skin concerns — including texture, tone, pigmentation, and signs of ageing. The right treatment for you depends on your skin type, concerns, lifestyle, and goals.

At The Skin Project Clinics by Doctors, all skin and laser treatments are performed by qualified medical practitioners after a detailed skin assessment. We take a considered approach — recommending the right treatment intensity, frequency, and combinations for your individual situation.

Skin and laser treatments we offer

Chemical peels — topical chemical solutions that exfoliate the skin's surface, encouraging skin renewal. Available in different strengths (light, medium, deeper) — strength is matched to your skin type and concerns.

Laser skin resurfacing — fractional laser treatment that creates microscopic columns of treatment in the skin, stimulating natural renewal. Used to address texture, fine lines, scarring, and overall skin quality.

Pigmentation treatment — targeted treatments for pigmentation concerns such as sun spots, age spots, and melasma. Approach depends on the type and depth of pigmentation.

Skin rejuvenation programs — combination approaches that pair multiple modalities (peels + laser + topical care) tailored to your skin goals.

Acne and acne scarring — specialised treatments for active acne and scarring, including chemical peels, laser, and combination approaches.

What a treatment involves

Sessions typically take 30–90 minutes depending on the treatment. Some treatments cause mild discomfort during the session — topical numbing cream is available, and laser treatments include integrated cooling.

Recovery time varies significantly between treatments. Light chemical peels involve minimal downtime with slight redness for 24 hours. Medium peels may involve 3–7 days of visible peeling. Laser resurfacing typically involves 3–10 days of redness, peeling, and possible swelling depending on intensity. Your cosmetic doctor will outline expected recovery for the specific treatment recommended.

Important considerations

  • Skin and laser treatments may not be suitable for all skin types — particularly darker skin types where some lasers carry higher risk of pigmentation changes
  • Sun exposure must be avoided for several weeks before and after most treatments
  • Some skin treatments require a course of sessions for optimal results
  • Treatments carry risks including (but not limited to) redness, swelling, pigment changes, infection, and rarely scarring
  • Pregnancy, breastfeeding, certain medications, and active skin conditions may affect suitability
  • Results vary between individuals

Suitability is assessed during a detailed consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which skin treatment is right for me?
That's what the consultation is for. Your cosmetic doctor will assess your skin type, identify your concerns, discuss your goals and lifestyle, and recommend a tailored treatment approach.
How many sessions will I need?
Many skin treatments work best as a course of 3–6 sessions spaced several weeks apart. The exact number depends on the treatment, your skin's response, and your goals. Your doctor will outline an expected treatment plan during consultation.
What's the downtime?
Downtime varies considerably between treatments. Light chemical peels involve same-day return to activities. Medium peels involve 3–7 days of peeling. Laser resurfacing involves 3–10 days of redness depending on intensity. Your doctor will detail expected downtime for your specific treatment so you can plan accordingly.
Are skin treatments safe for darker skin types?
Many treatments are safe across all skin types, but some lasers carry higher risk of pigmentation changes in darker skin. Your doctor will assess your Fitzpatrick skin type and recommend treatments specifically suited to your skin. We do not perform treatments outside our safety parameters.
Will I need to avoid the sun?
Yes — sun protection is critical before and after most skin treatments. You'll need to use SPF 50+ daily and avoid direct sun exposure for several weeks following treatment. Your doctor will provide specific aftercare instructions.
Does it hurt?
Discomfort varies by treatment. Light peels cause mild tingling. Laser treatments range from a warm prickling sensation to mild discomfort — managed with topical numbing cream and cooling during treatment. Your doctor will explain the sensation for your specific treatment.
How much do skin treatments cost?
Cost varies significantly based on the treatment, intensity, and whether you're booking a single session or a course. We discuss pricing transparently during consultation.
