Due to the continuing cluster outbreaks within the Greater Sydney region, we are now asking patients attending appointments to please wear a mask.

Central Sydney Dermatology has continued to operate throughout the pandemic adjusting our appointment schedule and operations to meet current requirements.  This includes but is not limited to the following measures:

• Reduced number of appointments available to meet social distancing requirements.
• Request that only the patient attend for appointments and only 1 carer to accompany where necessary.
• All staff and patients are temperature checked on arrival.
• Patients (and any accompanying persons) are requested to wear masks when in the practice.
• Staff are required to wear masks when working near (within 1.5m) patients. This includes administrative staff.
• Consulting and treatment rooms, reception area including EFTPOS machines cleaned between patients.
• Telehealth consults, mainly phone but video is available if necessary. Only for current patients.

Any person who has an appointment and may have been in contact with positive COVID-19 persons are asked to call the practice and cancel their appointment.  We will rebook the appointment for a date when you are clear of any quarantine period.

As a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) this practice will not see any patients within 14 days of their return from overseas travel.

This is to protect both patients and staff as we have many people attending our rooms with lower immunity or who are elderly.

If you have a planned appointment within 14 days of intended travel please call 02 9221 1477, our reception staff will reschedule your appointment.

If have been exposed and are showing symptoms please call Health direct hotline 1800 022 222.

Did you know that a woman’s skin ages more quickly after menopause than at any other time in her life?

30% of the skin’s collagen is lost within the first 5 years of menopause, due to low oestrogen levels.  During this time a woman skin ages more quickly than at any other stage of her life.  Menopause can cause skin dryness, laxity, wrinkling and dullness.

Emepelle with MEP Technology is clinically proven to significantly improve the visible signs of skin ageing.  Emepelle is the first and only skincare range which targets accelerated collagen loss and skin ageing caused by menopause.

Emepelle Serum is suitable for all skin types. It safely and effectively targets accelerated collagen loss and skin ageing caused by menopause and can be used morning and night in conjunction with your usual skin care routine.

We now have an innovative technology, maximise hydration and pamper your skin with the rich formula of Emepelle Night Cream, suitable for all skin types.

Central Sydney Dermatology will close on Friday 19^th, Saturday 20^th, Sunday 21^st, Monday 22^nd, and Thursday 25^th April.

We may experience extended delays in obtaining appointments over this time due to the public holiday closures and some of our doctors taking leave during the school holiday period.

Many thanks for your patience.

Happy Easter
