Skin Clinic Geelong

Real skin help, close to the Surf Coast and Bellarine

Great skin isn't luck. It's a plan made for you.

Our Geelong clinic on Malop Street brings clinician-led aesthetics to the Surf Coast and Bellarine. That means a trained clinician looks at your skin, listens to what bugs you, and recommends what actually suits you. No one-size-fits-all packages. No pressure.

Whether you're after a laser clinic in Geelong, a treatment that does more than feel nice, or a straight answer on skin tightening, you're in the right place. Clients visit us from Newtown, Belmont, Highton, Waurn Ponds, Armstrong Creek, Lara, Torquay and Ocean Grove.

Every treatment starts with a $50 consultation. It comes off your first treatment, so you're not paying extra to get started.

Our main treatments in Geelong

Tighten. Resurface. Sculpt. These are the treatments Geelong clients come to us for most.

• HIFU skin tightening. Focused ultrasound energy for firmer-feeling skin, without surgery.
• CO2 laser skin resurfacing. A powerful laser that renews skin texture and tackles deeper scarring. Expect more recovery time than with gentler treatments.
• Fat freezing. A non-surgical way to target stubborn pockets of fat. It isn't a weight-loss treatment.
• Pico laser. Short bursts of energy to target pigment. It's also our technology for tattoo removal.
• Laser lipo. Another non-surgical option for body contouring.
• EMS body sculpting. Muscle-focused sculpting to help shape and define.
• Laser Genesis. A gentle laser treatment for skin rejuvenation.

Find your treatment by concern

Start with what you'd like to change. We'll work out the rest. Every treatment below is recommended after a consultation, and results vary between individuals.

Pigmentation and sun damage

Dark patches, freckly sun spots and uneven tone? These are some of the most common things we see. Our pico laser works with short bursts of energy to target pigment. We also have dedicated pages for melasma treatment, sun damage and age spots and skin brightening. Spotted a mole that's new or changing? See your GP first.

Redness and rosacea

Flushed, sensitive or visibly red skin needs a gentle, thoughtful approach. Start with our rosacea and redness treatments. IPL skin rejuvenation (intense pulsed light) may also be part of the conversation, depending on your skin.

Acne and scarring

Active breakouts and the marks they leave behind aren't the same problem. We treat them differently. For deeper textural scarring, ask about CO2 laser. You can also explore acne scar revision, skin needling (tiny pricks that prompt your skin to renew itself) and skin peels.

Rejuvenation and texture

Dull, rough or tired-looking skin? Start with Laser Genesis for a gentle, targeted refresh, or CO2 laser for more dramatic resurfacing. Browse our full laser clinic range too. Microdermabrasion gently buffs away dead surface skin. Dermaplaning uses a fine blade to remove fine hair and dead cells for a smoother canvas. Curious what's going on beneath the surface? Ask about the Observe 520 skin analysis.

Skin tightening

Looking for firmer-feeling skin without surgery? HIFU uses focused ultrasound energy to target the deeper layers of your skin. It works gradually, and your clinician will tell you what's realistic for your skin.

Body contouring

Stubborn areas, sorted? Fat freezing is a non-surgical option for targeted pockets of fat. Laser lipo is another non-surgical route, and EMS body sculpting focuses on shaping and defining. None of these are weight-loss treatments. A consult will tell you which one is a good fit.

Hair removal

Shave less. Fuss less. Our laser hair removal treatments reduce hair growth over a course of sessions. The number you need depends on your hair, skin and the area treated.

Tattoo removal

Changed your mind? Our pico laser powers our tattoo removal, and we'll talk you through what's involved and how many sessions might be needed. Ink, size and colour all make a difference.

Looking for anti-wrinkle results without injections?

Here's the honest bit. St James Aesthetics doesn't offer injectables. That means no anti-wrinkle injections, no fillers and no cortisone.

What we do offer works differently. HIFU, CO2 laser and Laser Genesis don't relax muscles. They use energy to prompt your skin to renew and firm up over time.

So what's the trade-off?

• Gradual, not instant. Changes build over time, rather than appearing within days.
• Subtle, not identical. You may notice smoother, firmer-feeling skin, but the effect isn't the same as an injectable.
• Downtime varies. Some treatments, like CO2 laser, involve more recovery than others. Your clinician will explain what to expect.
• More than one session. Many people need a course of treatments. Results vary between individuals.

If injectables are what you want, we'll tell you so upfront. If you're open to a different route, a consult is the best place to start.

What to expect at your first visit

No surprises. Here's how it goes.

1. Book your $50 consult. It comes off your first treatment.
2. Chat with your clinician. Tell us what you'd like to change, and about your skin history, medications, sun exposure and any past treatments. This helps us check what's suitable. Some treatments aren't recommended in certain situations, such as pregnancy or after recent sun exposure.
3. Get a plan. We'll recommend what suits you, explain how it works, and talk through downtime, timing and cost before you decide anything.
4. Start when you're ready. No rush. If you'd like time to think, take it.
5. Aftercare. You'll get clear instructions to follow. Daily sunscreen matters with almost every skin treatment.

Need to change your appointment? Please give us at least 24 hours' notice, as per our 24-hour cancellation policy.

Better skin starts with a conversation. Not a sales pitch.
