Large Pores

Decreased elasticity is the main cause of enlarged pores. To help control oils and encourage the pores to stay clean, we recommend using BHA (Salicylic Acid). We also recommend a custom daily skin care regime. This could include retinoids, antioxidants and growth factors to keep the skin tight and smooth, and to stimulate collagen induction.

Large Pores
Tear Trough or Hollowing Under the Eyes

The area under the eyes is generally where the earliest signs of aging appear. It is here where we find the thinnest skin in our body. Age related loss of collagen accelerated by factors such as sun exposure and smoking result in the early appearance of fine lines and “crepey” skin.

Tear Trough or Hollowing Under the Eyes
Square Jawline (Masseter)

The masseters are large muscles on each side of the face, connecting the cheek bone to the lower end of the jaw bone. They are used when for chewing food but may be overactive. This more frequently appears in people who clench their jaws when stressed, grind their teeth, or those that frequently chew gum.…

Square Jawline (Masseter)
Hollow Temples

As we enter our forties the loss of fat in the region of the temples causes a hollowing that tends to be more apparent in slimmer faces. It can make a face look older and less healthy and can produce a sadder appearance. Correction of hollow temples will restore the more youthful smooth contours of…

Hollow Temples
Thinning Hair or Hair Loss

You may be experiencing hair loss as the result of many factors which include heredity, changes to your hormones, stress and medical conditions. Anyone can experience this. The Rosenthal Clinic has an effective treatment for most cases of scalp hair thinning and pattern baldness. The sooner that treatments are done, the better the outcome.

Thinning Hair or Hair Loss
Stretch Marks

In areas of stress on the tissues, breakdown of the skin’s collagen and elastin result in stretch marks. For example, during periods of rapid growth or weight gain. Stretch marks commonly appear on the buttocks and upper thighs of adolescent girls, over the breasts and abdomen in pregnancy, and over the back in teenage boys.…

Stretch Marks
Double Chin

The fullness of a double chin occurs in many people and is an accumulation of stubborn fat that often seems impervious to dieting. Hereditary reasons as well as being over ideal weight can lead to this condition. Previously aside from diet which doesn't always help, surgical methods were the only option available. Now The Rosenthal…

Double Chin
Feminine Rejuvenation

Found mainly in women, this is a condition in which there is involuntary emission of urine when pressure within the abdomen increases suddenly. For example, pressure created from laughing, sneezing, coughing, jumping, vigorous exercise, or heavy lifting. Consequently, it is a serious and embarrassing disorder, which can lead to social isolation.

Feminine Rejuvenation
Acne

Acne is a condition that results from the combination of excessive sebum production, the plugging of pores, and the inflammatory action of skin bacteria. Features of acne include blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, pustules, and cysts which may result in permanent scarring and skin discoloration. Above all, it is important to get effective treatments for acne to…

Acne
Acne scarring

Acne scarring is the result of inadequate treatment of active acne. Eventually, it tends to become more noticeable as our skin ages. Consequently, acne scarring can appear in the form of skin discoloration, deep pits(ice-pick scars), rolling scars, broader depressions, and thin flat or lumpy scars.

Acne scarring
Actinic Keratosis

Long term exposure to the sun may cause the development of actinic keratoses (AK). They most often appear as small rough scaly spots or patches with underlying redness and occasionally, no scaling is apparent. Commonly, you can find them on the top of the head, on the face, the back of the neck, the hands,…

Actinic Keratosis
Age-related facial changes

Deterioration of the skin becomes apparent when we age. This is due to the effects of the sun and results in the skin becoming thinner and losing strength, hydration and elasticity. Brown spots can appear as can the appearance of small veins and large pores. The skin loses its smoothness and youthful glow due to…

Age-related facial changes
Melasma, Freckles, Sun Spots

A brown spot is due to changes in pigmentation. A solar lentigo - also known as a liver spot or sun spot - appears as a brown spot on the skin that is darker than the surrounding skin. It is due to sun exposure and is most common in areas of the skin exposed to…

Crow's feet

Crow's feet are dynamic wrinkles that are most apparent when the facial muscles are smiling or the eyes are squinting. These lines radiating from the corners of the eyes can be one of the earliest signs of age-related facial changes. A deterioration in the quality of the skin, such as from cigarette smoking or UV…

Crow's feet
Excess Fat

Fat can be either subcutaneous (under the skin) or visceral (internal abdominal). You can 'pinch' subcutaneous fat. Often, many people describe them using the term 'love handles' or 'muffin top'. We only treat subcutaneous fat.

Excess Fat
Excessive sweating

Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is a very treatable disease. This disease may be the cause of hereditary factors or underlying medical concerns, and it may begin to appear throughout teenage years. As a result, hyperhidrosis affects an estimation of 5% of the world population. We can treat excessive sweating right here in Victoria, at Rosenthal…

Headaches and Back Pain

Headaches can result from a medical disorder such as a migraines, high blood pressure, anxiety, or depression. They can lead to other problems such as absence from work or school. Often, headaches can be a symptom of a serious condition, it is important to speak with your physician to have an accurate diagnosis.

Headaches and Back Pain
Lax Skin

Lax skin (loose sagging skin) along with folds and wrinkles on the face and body typically can be the cause of the aging process or sun exposure. In addition, rapid loss of weight can also result in lax skin. There are a number of Lax skin treatments available in Victoria at Rosenthal Clinic including: Chemical…

Lax Skin
Loss of Lip Volume

Loss of lip volume occurs over time. As a result, thinner lips with poor edge definition and a down turning of the lip corners. Vertical lines above the lip (smoker's lines) and creases in the lower lip may also occur.

Loss of Lip Volume
Sparse Lashes

Have you noticed a change in your lashes over the years? Have they lost their fullness, do they appear short, or lighter in color? Lash damage caused by poorly applied lash extensions, or the over use of false lashes. In addition, some medical conditions can also result in shorter or sparse lashes.

Sparse Lashes
Redness and Rosacea

Rosacea is characterized by extreme redness in the cheeks, forehead, or other areas of the face. It may also appear on the neck or chest. In some cases pimples and the appearance of blood vessels may be visible. Rosacea can have the appearance of acne and produce acne-like effects. This can be quite distressing to…

Redness and Rosacea
Sun damage

Sun damage is not part of the natural aging process associated with changes to the skin. Instead, it is the accumulated effect of exposure to the sun. This can result in brown pigmentation, melasma, broken blood vessels, dehydration, thinner skin, fine lines, enlarged pores, skin laxity, and even skin cancer.

Sun damage
Broken Veins and Vessels

Broken veins and vessels are common. Typically, they appear on the cheeks, nose, chin, and over time on the neck, chest, and legs. Small and medium-size blue or red (spider) veins, broken capillaries, blood vessels, and diffused redness are typically treated with our Excel V laser. There is no cure for spider veins, which may…

Broken Veins and Vessels
Unwanted Hair

Many people spend a lot of time and effort on removing unwanted hair. Shaving can lead to razor burn and rashes. While waxing requires you to grow out your hair for weeks at a time. Electrolysis can be slow as this method treats each hair follicle individually. All these methods can be costly in the…

Unwanted Hair
Wrinkles and Fine Lines

Wrinkles, fine lines, and skin folds are a result of changes in the skin that develop naturally with time but are significantly accelerated by sun exposure and cigarettes. The skin becomes thinner and drier from the effect of the loss of collagen, elasticity and moisture retaining proteins. Changes in the upper layer of the skin…

Wrinkles and Fine Lines
Hands

Turn back the "hands of time". Unless you wear gloves at all times, your hands will show the telltale signs of aging. Age related changes to the hands include brown spots, dehydration, thinned and sun damaged skin, as well as the loss of fat - making bones, tendons, and veins appear more prominent.

Hands
Dry or Rough Skin

The appearance of dry or rough skin is due to the irregular shedding of the cells of the upper part of the skin (epidermis). As we age, dead cells tend to ‘clump up’ rather than being evenly shed. The skin looks dry and rough because it no longer reflects light evenly. Moisturizers can temporarily improve…
