Dehydrated Skin

Dehydrated skin can cause a dull, flaky, and irritated complexion, often with sensitivity and uncomfortable tightness. This may be triggered by weather, lifestyle, or age-related changes. During a comprehensive consultation, we’ll explore the level of cosmetic involvement suited to your needs, discussing advanced treatment options designed to deeply rehydrate tired skin and refresh your overall appearance

Our extensive experience with treating dehydrated skin

Dehydrated skin is largely affected by external factors, such as the environment or smoking habits overtime. If left unaddressed, you may experience a decline in skin health leading to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. Not only can this result in skin sensitivity, such as itchiness and redness, but it may affect how well you are able to wear make-up or participate in other selfcare services.

Sharing his techniques and results with other Doctors and Nurses, Dr. Scott Allison attends domestic and international conferences, passionate about achieving exceptional results. Our team at Ascension are trained by Dr. Allison, using effective, patient-tailored techniques to maintain a high level of care.

“Rehydrating treatments are some of the most under-utilised tools for maintaining youthful, healthy skin, and preventing the early onset of fine lines and wrinkles. There is no quicker way to improve skin quality and hydration levels than with a personalised treatment plan that works uniquely for your skin profile.” – Dr. Scott Allison.

Areas of concern /

Multiple factors can contribute to dehydrated skin, and it is crucial for your Practitioner to thoroughly evaluate the underlying cause to determine the most suitable treatment for you. During your consultation, we work with you to understand your skin type and unique aesthetic needs and goals. A personalised treatment plan will then be developed to address hydration concerns.

Dullness

Rehydrating treatments improve skin quality and brightness by deeply nourishing the skin to replenish and rejuvenate.

Fine Lines

Dehydrated skin can accentuate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, especially around more delicate areas such as the eyes and lips. By restoring hydration to the skin, these lines become less prominent.

Flakiness

A lack of hydration can lead the skin to peel or flake on the superficial layer. Rehydration treatments work to counteract and prevent these types of events by ensuring the dermis is adequately hydrated.

Redness and Irritation

When the skin is dehydrated it can become more sensitive to external factors, such as the weather and certain skin care products. Hydration contributes to skin resilience and lessens the chances of irritation.

Tightness

Skin lacking in moisture may feel tight, especially after cleansing. Hydrating treatments encourage a suppleness, enabling the face to feel more at ease and youthful.

Pricing

At Ascension, we provide comprehensive cosmetic consultations where your comfort, aesthetic preferences, facial anatomy and skin health are all considered to provide an ideal treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Your consultation at our Brisbane clinic

During your initial consultation, various aspects will be discussed to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the procedure and your specific needs. The consultation allows us to discuss expectations openly and create a treatment plan you can approve.

Firstly, your cosmetic concerns and treatment goals will be discussed. We will listen attentively to gain insight into what you hope to achieve through treating dehydrated skin concerns. This discussion allows us to explain what can be realistically achieved.

Next, we will thoroughly examine your skin health, asking about the areas experiencing noticeable changes. We will carefully evaluate your facial anatomy, taking note of bone structure, fat pads and skin laxity. This assessment helps us to determine the appropriate treatment plan required. We may also inquire about any allergies or previous cosmetic treatments. This information is crucial for determining your eligibility for the procedure.

The consultation will also involve a discussion about the procedure itself, including the type of product that will be used, the expected duration of the results, and any potential risks or side effects. We can explain the technique involved, ensuring you understand the process and know what to expect during and after the treatment.

Finally, the financial aspect will be discussed. We will provide information about the cost of the treatment, any potential additional expenses, and the expected longevity of the results. We can also discuss the option of follow-up treatments and maintenance. Your treatment costs will depend on the personalised details of your procedure, so it is best to wait until having your consultation before making calculations.

Recommended treatments

At Ascension, we provide comprehensive cosmetic consultations, where your comfort, aesthetic preferences, facial anatomy and skin health are all considered to provide an ideal treatment plan tailored to your needs. You may benefit from a combination approach utilising different treatment methods and a number of sessions, which we will discuss during your consultation.

HydraFacial

Monthly HydraFacials are an essential form of maintenance for skin health. This deeply clarifying treatment consists of exfoliation, extractions if needed and a personalised hydrating infusion that can be tailored to your specific skin concern.

We offer three different HydraFacials depending on your goals. Patients can expect to see results immediately, with growing improvements over subsequent treatments, all without any downtime.

Rejuran

Addressing skin hydration, fine lines, wrinkles, pores and textural changes to enforce the integrity of the skin, Rejuran is a revolutionary bio-regenerative treatment that uses Polynucleotides (PN) to stimulate collagen producing cells. This approach relies on your natural potential for youthful radiance, which contributes to overall skin hydration.

Recovery time after Rejuran is minimal, with side-effects lasting only 1-2 days. Patients may see results soon after the treatment, but the deeper effects will occur over the following months while your skin repairs itself naturally.

HydraFacial + Ultra-Infusion

For dehydrated skin, this facial combines the deep-cleansing and exfoliating power of HydraFacial with the transformative benefits of the Ultraformer MPT Booster Infusion and Healite LED light therapy to enhance skin tone, hydration, and firmness.

The treatment features an added Skin Booster Infusion Serum, delivered deep into the dermis using the Ultra-Booster handpiece. Infused with PDRN (Salmon DNA) — a powerful skin-repairing molecule, and 39 active ingredients, including 7 forms of hyaluronic acid, 10 peptides, and 17 amino acids. This facial delivers targeted nourishment for plump, radiant skin.

Ascension x Augustinus Bader The Method

Ascensión x Augustinus Bader The Method Facial is a luxurious treatment designed to deeply rehydrate the skin and strengthen its resilience. Combining advanced fascia massage, cellular-activating sheet masks, and science-backed formulas, this ritual supports the skin barrier and promotes lasting hydration. Developed by Augustinus Bader, it delivers an indulgent, restorative experience for visibly healthier, more radiant skin.

Skin Needling and Exosomes

Microneedling with exosomes is an advanced cosmetic treatment designed to rejuvenate dehydrated, lacklustre skin by addressing the issue at a cellular level. This dual approach combines advanced skin therapy to replenish hydration, improve texture and combat the signs of ageing. Skin needling creates micro-channels, encouraging the natural production of collagen and elastin while enhancing the skin’s ability to absorb hydration. When combined with exosomes—cell-derived vesicles loaded with growth factors and proteins—this treatment deeply hydrates and nourishes the skin, restoring its natural suppleness.

Exosomes work to repair the skin barrier, boost hyaluronic acid production and accelerate cell turnover, targeting the underlying causes of dehydration. Patients often experience immediate improvements in skin texture and hydration, with ongoing benefits such as enhanced elasticity, reduced fine lines and a radiant, more youthful appearance. This treatment is ideal for those seeking to revitalise dry, tired skin and achieve a long lasting, healthy glow.
