Description

Sun-related skin damage, also known as photo-ageing, is the most common reason that patients seek out cosmetic treatment from dermatologists. Australians experience much higher levels of photo-ageing compared to people in other countries, manifesting as fine lines and wrinkles, brown spots, skin texture changes and redness.

Dr Katherine Armour will describe the procedures and treatments available for the various manifestations of photo-ageing that your patients are asking you about, and gives you a practical understanding of the effectiveness and realistic expectations that each option entails.
