What is a dermal therapist?
We are the skin, laser and dental experts, meaning that we can provide solutions on a range of skin conditions and cosmetic problems.
This includes everything from skin care recommendations, cosmetic injections to ageing skin and pesky breakouts. We also work with a team of aesthetic medical doctors to determine your best treatments.
What is a cosmetic practitioner?
A Cosmetic practitioner is either a doctor, dentist or registered nurse. Our cosmetic medicine treatments are undertaken by an experienced and advanced cosmetic practitioner, who is a dentist.
Dr Giulia D'Anna is a dentist, an educator in the cosmetic medicine field and a key opinion leader. She also has been to university to study advanced anatomy, dermal therapy and continuing education routinely.
Cosmetic medicine
Wrinkles and lines often reflect natural facial expressions and the passage of time. For those who wish to explore ways to soften their appearance, treatment options may be available. These can include cosmetic medical treatments, which are only prescribed following a consultation with a qualified health practitioner.
Skin Assessment
Do you love nothing more than a face-to-face? Or have a burning skin question that you want answered by someone who really knows their stuff? Then our in-depth consultation service is for you.
Treatment Areas at Dermal Distinction
At Dermal Distinction, we offer cosmetic medical and skin treatments tailored to support the natural balance and structure of the face. Common areas of concern we assess include the forehead, frown lines, crow’s feet, lip and chin contours, jawline definition, temple volume, cheek shape, brow position, and skin texture. Each individual’s facial anatomy and ageing process is unique, and as such, treatment plans are carefully developed following a comprehensive consultation.
We offer a range of treatment options that may include non-surgical and cosmetic medicine approaches, depending on your needs. All treatment decisions are made collaboratively between you and your qualified health practitioner, with a focus on safety, informed consent, and realistic outcomes.
Understanding Skin Ageing
Ageing is a natural and highly individual process. Over time, many people notice changes such as fine lines, reduced skin elasticity, volume loss, uneven tone, and deeper folds around the mouth and jawline. While these changes are normal, some individuals seek support to maintain or enhance their skin’s natural appearance.
At our clinic, we provide a medically guided, personalised approach to skin ageing. Our goal is to help you understand the changes you’re experiencing, explore evidence-based options, and make informed decisions about your care.
Common Concerns Patients Seek Support For:
+ Fine lines and dynamic wrinkles
+ Volume loss in the cheeks, lips, or under the eyes
+ Sagging skin along the jawline or neck
+ Dullness, dryness, or uneven skin tone and texture
+ Deeper folds such as nasolabial or marionette lines
Possible Treatment Options
Your practitioner will determine the most appropriate treatment plan after a full consultation. Options may include:
Wrinkle Support Therapies: Treatments focused on smoothing expression lines caused by facial movement
Hydration & Skin-Boosting Therapies: Designed to improve moisture levels and enhance skin quality
Collagen-Stimulating Treatments: Approaches that support natural collagen renewal over time
Volume Support Treatments: Tailored options to address areas of facial hollowing or volume change
Skin Rejuvenation Therapies: Including treatments like peels, microneedling, or energy-based modalities to improve tone and surface texture
Some treatment options may involve the use of cosmetic medicine products, which will be discussed and determined if they are medically appropriate and following a full assessment.
Your Consultation
Every treatment plan begins with a thorough consultation by a qualified health professional. This includes:
• A comprehensive facial assessment
• A discussion of your aesthetic concerns and goals
• An explanation of suitable treatment options
• Information about potential outcomes and risks
• Time for you to ask questions and make an informed decision
No treatments are performed without clear and informed consent, and your care is always tailored to your specific needs and medical suitability.

Boost your Skin
If injecting moisturiser was an option, this is even better than that. Boosting your skin gives it ultimate hydration and can revive the collagen formation. More than a topical, this treatment improves skin hydration under the surface and from within – so no contouring with this one – just skin that is super-hydrated, supple and fresh.
Cosmelan
Pigmentation, and especially hormonal pigmentation [aka Melasma] can strike anyone. Drew Barrymore, Jenna Tatum have all suffered, but Cosmelan to the rescue. This mask is rejuvenating, and whisks about pigmentation with the maintenance kit
