We provide a most extensive range of lasers to cover all patients’ needs. New additions of lasers which we have introduced are the Fraxel Restore Dual, which is the first of its kind in New Zealand and an excellent laser for the management of refractory pigmentation, the Luminas Duet laser, which is virtually a pain-free laser for hair removal, and the Revlite EO Q-switched laser for refractory pigmentation as well. Included among the cosmetic procedures performed at the Skin Specialist Centre are:
