Skin Consultation

Our skin consultations are the first step on your way to clear, glowing skin.

Skincare and skin treatments are not one-size-fits-all. Our one-hour, advanced skin consultation helps us get to know your skin beneath the surface, so we can treat any specific skin concerns and help you achieve clear, glowing skin.

Your skin consultation allows us to see what’s happening in your skin from beneath the surface and understand your skin and what is causing your skin concern.

Meet your skin therapist at Chantal Louise Skin Therapy for a one-on-one skin consultation. Your therapist will take you through a skin analysis, develop a personalised treatment plan for you, and provide a prescription for any products that’ll help you achieve your skin goals.

 

Plus we like to work with you and what you already use on your skin at home. We will do an in-depth look into what you are using at home to ensure they are the right ingredients for your skin.

Our skin therapists

Receive weekly training to keep them up-to-date in the world of skincare – will provide you with plenty of gems of wisdom and advice for your skin. We love helping our clients understand the world of skincare, so we can take you closer to your skin goals.

 

It’s the most accurate skin analysis you can get to enable us to get to the root cause of your skin concern.

We’ll run a skin analysis using our state of the art machine

With our advanced skin analysis machine, we go beneath the surface of your skin, peeking into your skin barrier. This allows us to see what we typically couldn’t — like underlying skin pigmentation, dehydration, dryness, essential fatty acid deficiency, oil flow and if the oil is unhealthy or healthy.

 

By seeing these hints on your skin, we’ll understand exactly what’s going on and identify the cause of any skin concerns you may have. Our machine also allows us to see what your skin could look like in the future. This means we can spot treat areas of concern when it comes to ageing and treat those concerns. 

Once we’ve completed this skin assessment, your skin therapist will take you through the results. You’ll understand exactly what each finding is and what it means for your skincare routine.

Bring along your makeup and skincare products

Your at-home skincare and makeup products will be a big piece of the puzzle that is your skin. We’ll look at these and compare them with your skin analysis. Then, we’ll run through the ingredients, letting you know which ingredients your skin loves, and which it might prefer you stopped using.

Your skin therapist will share some skincare basics with you

Your lifestyle plays a big part in your skin’s health. So, we’ll ask you about your work or study, your stress levels, and we’ll explore any hormonal conditions, like PCOS. Conditions like heat, humidity, and high-stress environments can really upset your skin.

So, it’s important we explore these and provide you with some strategies to help your skin weather them better.

Get a custom treatment plan for your skin

Your treatment plan is customised for you. Everyone’s skin is different, just as your skin concerns and goals are, too. So, we’ll develop a treatment plan, targeting the findings from your skin analysis as well as your skin goals.

We never ever want to disappoint with our treatments, so we only recommend treatments we know will work. We’re mindful of your budget too. We’ll always be transparent about which treatments or products are the “must-haves” and which are just “pretty-nice-to-have”.

Your treatment plan will be made up of:

You’ll receive a custom skincare prescription

You’ll receive a custom skincare prescription for our medical-grade skincare products. These products allow you to continue caring for your skin at home. We’ll even run you through exactly how to apply our products and which order you should apply them in. Don’t stress about remembering it all, though. You’ll get a handy booklet to take home that you can keep referring back to.

Your prescription will come with a plan too.

No matter how good your products are or how lush and nourishing the ingredients are, your skin won’t be happy if you introduce a bunch of medical grade skincare to it which is why we gradually build your skin up to the active medical grade strengths. 

 

We’ll create a plan to introduce these products as your skin barrier develops, only introducing active ingredients once your skin has indicated it’s ready for them.

Why book a skin consultation?

We think our consultations are one of the best investments you can make for your skin. Here’s why we love them.

A full, science-backed view of your skin

By looking beneath your skin barrier, we can work out exactly what’s going on and put together a science-backed overview of your skin. With a complete understanding of your skin, we can recommend the best products and treatments for you — without the guesswork.

Skincare personalised to your skin goals

Everyone’s skin is different and so are their skin goals! You might want to beat acne, reduce fine lines, or minimise the appearance of pigmentation in your skin. Maybe you just want a stunning glow. Your treatment plan and product prescription are personalised to your skin and your goals.

All the right products for your skin

Using our skin analysis machine, we’ll work out exactly which ingredients your skin is begging for, and which it would rather you leave in the bathroom drawer. We’ll create your personalised, medical-grade product prescription with this in mind.

A simple way to understand your skin

At Chantal Louise Skin Therapy, we have so much skincare knowledge and we love getting to share it with our lovely clients. We’ll help you understand what your skin may be reacting to and exactly how to treat it from now on. You’ll walk away empowered with knowledge.

Our FAQs about our skincare consultation

Have a question about our skin consultation? We may have already answered it below.

It’s a one-hour, professional skin assessment where we discuss your skin, your lifestyle, the products you use. We’ll use a skin analysis machine to look below the surface of your skin and gain a real understanding of the factors that may be affecting it.

Our skin consultation is designed to give us all the information we need to educate you and provide a treatment plan.

You can expect to walk away feeling empowered, confident, and really knowledgeable in your skin. Not only will you receive personalised advice from one of our skin therapists, but you’ll understand any skin conditions you may have, as well as what can inflame those conditions, and precisely how we plan to treat them.

 

Bring along your current makeup and skincare products so we can advise you on which ingredients might be good or bad for your skin, and provide some recommendations for you. Don’t stress, there’s no pressure to purchase our products at your skin consultation.

Our skin consultations take one hour. We have extended opening hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays if you need to squeeze your consultation in after work!

As part of your consultation, you’ll receive a personalised skin prescription and treatment plan. We’d never lock you into buying products or booking a treatment, but if you’re ready, you’re welcome to go ahead and book your treatments in!

 

It’s worth noting that with our prescribed products, we won’t recommend getting a lot of products straight away. Your skin barrier is sensitive (and a little bit shy!), so we need to be really careful as we introduce new medical grade strength products to it.

We offer an online skin consultation for $50, allowing our interstate or rural clients to explore their skin and understand it better. We’ll run through the same process as the in-person consultation, however, we can’t use our skin analysis machine. By chatting about your skin and your lifestyle and using images, we can create a personalised treatment plan with all of those lovely product prescriptions to empower you with a real understanding of your skin.

If you're new to Chantal Louise Skin Therapy, we recommend you book the skin consultation first. This will allow your skin therapist to help guide you with the best options for your skin. Pssst. Get a $30 voucher to use for your initial consultation.
