24.01.2022 HOW CAN I HELP ? Today is the first Friday in a long while where I havent had a needle in my hand injecting or be consulting with patients - And Im not on holiday. It is surreal. Anxiety, Uncertainty & Worry are common feelings that we are all experiencing & it is understandably impacting on our health, mindset, personal outlooks & even food choices. Whilst I cant provide positivity & confidence building through Injectables & Laser treatments at present due to Governm...ent restrictions or see my Cosmetic & Bariatric Patients face to face...what I hope to still be able to offer is my support to you via Online Virtual Consultations. I stand with you and our community so I hope that I can still be available in some form for my patients. Bookings are available online via my website - www.drchristine.com.au/bookonline. All appointments are via Phone or Video Consultation & presently Bulk-Billed for eligible Medicare Card Holders. Stay safe & Keep Well. x Dr C
24.01.2022 SAFETY I value the health and safety of my patients as well as the beautiful staff that I work alongside with. In keeping with the current recommendations, just a gentle reminder to cancel your appointment with me: If you have travelled anywhere overseas or interstate in the last 14 days OR If you are unwell. This is across all my locations. Any late cancellation fees will be waived.... I appreciate your understanding and lets all continue to be mindful and kind during this time. x Dr C See more

23.01.2022 PDO THREADS Are essentially a kind of dissolvable suture that is placed under your skin with the aim of helping to support & create a mechanical lifting effect for sagging skin & tissue The threads aim to stimulate collagen as well as new blood vessels (neovascularisation) which together helps to improve Elasticity, Skin Texture & Fine Lines Some common areas of treatments are the Nasolabial Folds, Marionettes, Jowls & Jawline... Smaller (mono) PDO threads can be used purely for collagen stimulation rather than lifting The procedure is minimally invasive involving local anaesthetic to the areas where the threads are inserted. The threads itself are then placed in the deeper tissues similar to the use of a cannula for dermal filler treatments @drkatejameson & I have been using the PDO threads in The Lab & we are loving the natural looking results. As always, a thorough consultation for suitability is required prior to proceeding with treatment. Im very excited to be adding this as a treatment option @youthlabaus #threadlift #nonsurgical #skinlaxity #facialrejuvenation #drchristine #facebydrchristine #totalfaceapproach #aestheticsforconfidence #perthdoctor #threadliftperth #perthskin #perthcosmeticclinic #perthcosmeticdoctor #perthbeauty #perthmums #perthwedding #perthbride #perthbrows #perthmakeupartists #perthfit #perthbeautyblogger #perthluxury #perthhealth #perthhealthyliving #theperthcollective #perthlocal #perthbabes #perthbossladies See more

23.01.2022 MONDAY When we still need coffee! Routines & Rituals are super important during times of change. I feel it helps to keep perspective & keep you feeling on top of things. My 2 main rituals at the moment are my Skincare Routine & my little Coffee Date with my @nespresso machine in the morning I would like to help maintain as much positivity & normality for you as I can during this time. Its definitely not to say that we are forgetting the worlds events or the gratitude... to our frontline healthworkers..but hopefully it can help to lessen the unease even just for a brief moment Let me know what content you would like to See or Learn more about when it comes to your Health - Skin, Aesthetic Treatments, Nutrition, Weight Loss - & I will do my best to include more Stay Safe & Well #happymonday #coffeerituals #openplatform #selfcare #drchristine | @thenamestesa See more
23.01.2022 HEALTHY FATS Are one food group that we shouldn't overlook. As well as helping to give us healthier levels of cholesterol, good fats also help to nourish the skin My favourite 3 healthy fats have to be Avocados (who could say no?), Salmon especially sashimi & good ol' tuna From a weight loss point of view, we still need to be mindful of portion size as there can still be too much of a good thing... | @pinterest #eatwelllivewell #balanceddiet #feedyourskin #happyfood #avolove #drchristine #facebydrchristine #drchristinesfavourites #aestheticsforconfidence #totalfaceapproach #perthdoctor #perthskin #pertheats #perthcosmeticclinic #perthcosmeticdoctor #perthbeauty #perthmums #perthwedding #perthbride #perthbrows #perthmakeupartists #perthbeautyblogger #perthluxury #perthfit #perthhealth #perthhealthyliving #theperthcollective #perthlocal #perthbabes #perthbossladies See more

21.01.2022 WAITING ROOM DISTANCING Is now a reality, not just in cafes & restaurants but in your Medical Waiting room. The current Government recommendation is that each person requires 4sqm2 of space in an enclosed room. Meaning a busy or full waiting room of patients is not allowing for social distancing & potentially risking your health & safety in the setting of COVID-19 To enable this, bookings may have to be lengthened further & time given between patient appointments to en...sure there isnt overlap to ensure that the safest environment possible can be provided to you This may mean that it may be a tad harder to get an appointment time to see me. Please contact me via Email or the Clinic directly should you be struggling to get an appointment My heartfelt thanks again for your ongoing support & patience during this time | @studioblackinteriors @robsonrakarchitects #yourhealthmatters #patientsafety #socialdistancing #officegoals #drchristine See more
21.01.2022 COSMETIC DOCTORS Thats us! With the aesthetic industry still largely unregulated at present, I find alot of comfort in knowing that @drkatejameson & I are always Medical Doctors first & foremost. We pride ourselves on our ethics, the use of our medical training & qualifications to consult with you to provide a full facial assessment & recommend not just one treatment modality but a combination of Injectable, Laser & Cosmeceutical options. If a treatment isnt right for ...you, we wont perform or recommend it-regardless of current trend or financial gain Yes we need to be skilled injectors & have the aesthetic eye but I believe additionally, there is alot of worth in the Art of Consultation to help deliver your results & match realistic expectations with your treatments I am proud to stand next to this gorgeous mumma to be. Its pretty special to find colleagues who align with your clinical practice, values & work ethic #cosmeticdoctor #womeninmedicine #bossbabes #knowyourinjector #drchristine See more

20.01.2022 SKIN FIRMING MASK BIO-SHAPE by @cosmedix_ is one of the reasons why I advocate Medical Grade Skincare due to not just the ingredients but the technology that goes into the product. Thia ultimately leads to results that you visibly see in your skin BIO-SHAPE has 2 transformative ingredients: Oat Kernel Extract (Osilift) A sugar-based ingredient that adheres to the surface of your skin creating an elastic, flexible lifting film.... This gives an immediate smoothing effect as well as long-term results Acetyl dipeptide-1 Cetyl Ester (Idealift) A powerful peptide that helps fight against skin sagging & improves resistance to gravity . This MASK Can be applied up to 3 times a week Is best applied at night & left on while you sleep Can help improve hydration Help achieve smoother & plumper looking skin Help support fine lines & wrinkles Bio-Shape has been a really welcomed addition to my home Skincare.

You may present to me with just one or many concerns. In addition to treating these, its important to consider & treat the cause of your presentation as well as consider preventative & maintenance treatments to keep you looking fresh & feeling confident in your own skin ...

I care about your outcome & achieving the best results in the longer term, not just what happens in a single visit #cosmeticdoctor #cosmeticclinic #passionformyprofession #drchristine #facebydrchristine #aestheticsforconfidence #drchristinesfavourites #preventativeageing #glassskin #antiwrinkletreatment #dermalfillers #plateletrichplasma #laserspecialist #doublechin #hyperpigmentation #acnescarring #sundamage #skinlaxity #pores #perthdoctors #perthwomen #perthsbest #perthskin #perthbeauty #perthcosmeticclinic #perthlifestyle #perthhealth #perthluxury #theperthcollectivepr See more

14.01.2022 UPDATE -- I hope this post finds you all well. As we are all aware, our community and environment as we know it is changing due to COVID-19. With the current recommendations, all non-urgent consultations should be changed to Telehealth consultations to ensure the health and safety of all of us. I feel that at this time of uncertainty and change, what we need is support and to rally around each other. As such, I have made some changes to my Bariatric practice and have now orga...nised Video Consultations and Phone Consultations so that we can connect and still keep in touch with your progress, support you through the stages of your surgical recovery or your preparation for surgery that has now been delayed or just catchup over whats been happening with your journey if its been some time since our last catchup. I have truly valued your support over the years and I know that my limited availability has made it tricky to see some of you as regularly as we would like so the good news is that I have now increased my available appointment days and there is no need to travel, for now, as all consults are via Telehealth and completely Bulk-Billed if you have a valid Medicare Card. How do you get in touch? Book Online via www.drchristine.com.au. Bookings are now presently available Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. Please spread the word to as many Bariatric patients that you know who would find this service useful. To my dear patients, new and not so new, I look forward to catching up and sharing abit of positivity during this time. Stay safe and well in the mean time. x Dr C
14.01.2022 EAT WELL No better time than the present to make as many healthy food choices as possible. A balance of lean protein, healthy fats, low GI carbohydrates & lots of fresh vegetables, fruit & water will give you the best chance of keeping as healthy as possible & your skin will certainly thank you #eattherainbow #fresheats #balancedliving #selfcare #drchristine
14.01.2022 VEG IT UP Now as much as ever is the time to ensure you dont forget your 5 serves of Vegies. Any vegetable is pretty much a good source of fibre & natural vitamins & minerals which will help our tummies feel more satisfied, our skin as glowy as it can be & help us feel more positive about our food choices, especially now that we are spending more time at home than most of us are used to Vegies also make great snacks! Think cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, capsicum I love... fresh vegies but as part of limiting my shopping trips out unless necessary, I am using frozen veggies such as broccoli & cauliflower & they are still pretty good options if this helps with access x Dr C #eattherainbow #eatmoreveggies #healthfirst #perthdoctor #drchristine | @pinterest See more
13.01.2022 Limited FACE TO FACE APPOINTMENTS available tomorrow morning for Lap Band Patients. Book Online via www.drchristine.com.au x Dr C Edit in Response to Queries: All Bulk-Billed. No referral needed. At my usual Bariatric Location - Suite 41, Hollywood Medical Centre. 85 Monash Ave, Nedlands. 63890244
13.01.2022 MINIMALISM When less is more. I love how minimalist architecture with its clean lines can have so much impact. I believe the same principle can be applied to Injectables The lowest effective dose when it comes to your Wrinkle Relaxers & also re-assess your dose as time goes on When it comes to Dermal Filler, it is important to assess how much filler is needed to set expectations. Then strategic placement is paramount for your outcome to be natural & enhanced but no...t overdone I believe the ability to create impact with not necessarily large doses comes with a little Aesthetic Artistry & Clinical Experience.

09.01.2022 JAW CLENCHING & GRINDING Can be treated with Wrinkle Relaxer Neuromodulator Injections The main muscle involved is the MASSETER MUSCLE. If you bite down & hold, then place your fingers on your lower jaw you will likely be able to feel this muscle HOW DOES GRINDING CHANGE MY FACE? ... If you clench or grind your teeth, it's almost like going to the gym & lifting weights to build your muscles. The masseter muscle grows bigger & you can therefore see this more prominently like a fullness in your jaw or notice that your lower face has become more square or wider. HOW DO I KNOW IF I CLENCH OR GRIND? You might experience Jaw Pain or TMJ Pain ( just in front of your ears), usually upon waking but you can certainly have these symptoms during the day You may get headaches around the temple area You may notice that your face has widened or become more square or angular Your dentist may comment on damage to your teeth If you sleep next to someone they may complain they can hear you grinding your teeth during sleep I may notice that you have prominent masseters during a consult or other treatments HOW CAN IT BE TREATED? In clinic I can offer a simple, quick & relatively painless treatment with Wrinkle Relaxers. Just the same as we treat frown lines or smiles lines, the wrinkle relaxer injectjon helps to decrease the muscle activity over 4 to 6 weeks & can last from 4 to 6 months Injections to treat your masseter will also have the upside of facial slimming There are theories that clenching or grinding may be a symptom if underlying stress is present so addressing this & adopting relaxation measures is important I myself am a jaw clencher & have my masseters treated. This is certainly one of my favourite Injectable Treatments as it is a Medical Treatment & provides such Relief for many patients & improvement to their Quality of Life #teethgrinding #jawpain #medicalaesthetics #perthdoctor #preventativemedicine #drchristine #facebydrchristine #aestheticsforconfidence #perthskin #perthclinic #perthskinclinic #perthskincare #perthhealth #perthsmallbiz #perthmums #perthfitfam #perthbride #perthbrows #perthmakeupartists #perthcreatives See more

07.01.2022 GREEN LIFE Who else cant live without vegies? Our skin & health is a 2 way process. Nourish yourself poorly but yet expect the optimum results from your skin & body equals an unbalanced outcome Glowing skin & a Healthy body generally always starts from within Think of each meal as a chance to give your body the best nutrients it deserves. A great starting point is vegies as at least 90%(!)..yups you read right..over 90% of Australian adults dont hit our ...daily required vegie serves So how do you hit your Vegie goals for the day?

05.01.2022 WORK WITHDRAWAL Anyone else feeling the same? Fridays for me are usually extra busy days in The Lab - using Science, Medicine & Artistry - to help achieve #AestheticsForCofindence Processing PRP [ Platelet Rich Plasma ] for my beautiful patients was one of my favourite Friday treatments. Still in awe of how we can apply medicine to nature & use our own bodys properties to help transform & improve our skins appearance & quality Cant wait to be back @youthlabaus wit...h needle in hand when the restrictions are lifted. But in the mean time its an opportunity to try slow down (Im still going at a million miles an hour!) & do our part to #stayathome & support our frontline healthworkers & each other #prp #medicalaesthetics #drchristine See more
04.01.2022 PDO THREADS Are essentially a kind of dissolvable suture that is placed under your skin with the aim of helping to support & create a mechanical lifting effect for sagging skin & tissue The threads aim to stimulate collagen as well as new blood vessels (neovascularisation) which together helps to improve Elasticity, Skin Texture & Fine Lines Some common areas of treatments are the Nasolabial Folds, Marionettes, Jowls & Jawline... Smaller (mono) PDO threads can be used purely for collagen stimulation rather than lifting The procedure is minimally invasive involving local anaesthetic to the areas where the threads are inserted. The threads itself are then placed in the deeper tissues similar to the use of a cannula for dermal filler treatments @drkatejameson & I have been using the PDO threads in The Lab & we are loving the natural looking results. As always, a thorough consultation for suitability is required prior to proceeding with treatment. I'm very excited to be adding this as a treatment option @youthlabaus #threadlift #nonsurgical #skinlaxity #facialrejuvenation #drchristine #facebydrchristine #totalfaceapproach #aestheticsforconfidence #perthdoctor #threadliftperth #perthskin #perthcosmeticclinic #perthcosmeticdoctor #perthbeauty #perthmums #perthwedding #perthbride #perthbrows #perthmakeupartists #perthfit #perthbeautyblogger #perthluxury #perthhealth #perthhealthyliving #theperthcollective #perthlocal #perthbabes #perthbossladies See more
04.01.2022 VIRTUAL MEDICINE Is well & truly here. I have always felt that Phone or Video Consultations would add so much benefit to my Consulting Practice. However, Medicare rebates generally couldnt be claimed for these consultations previously for a GP or Bariatric Doctor Todays Government announcement will help increase your access to care & support during this time of need & has added some positivity to the current situation Patients are already sharing with me their conc...erns, worries, potential feelings of isolation & this is impacting on their HEALTH & LIFESTYLE choices as well as their HEADSPACE. Having a Medical Practitioner as easily accessible as a Phone Call or Zoom Meeting away is so encouraging & removing the financial barrier by these consults being Bulk-Billed is an added bonus I continue to offer Virtual Consults to patients new & old, bariatric or non-bariatric. Bookings online via www.drchristine.com.au/bookonline As always, stay safe & keep well x Dr C #telehealth #socialdistancing #stayathome #flattenthecurve #drchristine See more
04.01.2022 FACIAL SLIMMING Did you know this was possible with Anti-Wrinkle Injections? The MASSETER muscle is addressed. This is a major muscle for chewing but if you Clench & Grind your teeth, this muscle can become larger, bulkier & more prominent In both males & females, this results in squaring of the jaw, sometimes a quite obvious swelling in this area & for many-apart from the discomfort of clenching & grinding-the appearance of a wider face & jawline This beautiful resu...lt on @vy.ldn by @drtoniburke shows the softening & slimming of the the lower jaw as well as the creation of a more V-Shaped lower face Clenching & Grinding improves 2-4 weeks after initial treatment with Facial Slimming taking 6-8 weeks to see the full effects Oh & dont worry..you will still be able to chew normally after treatment #facialslimming #teethclenching #jawgrinding #jawlinecontouring #drchristine Amazing as always @cosmedocs @ Youth Lab See more

03.01.2022 JAW CLENCHING & GRINDING Can be treated with Wrinkle Relaxer Neuromodulator Injections The main muscle involved is the MASSETER MUSCLE. If you bite down & hold, then place your fingers on your lower jaw you will likely be able to feel this muscle HOW DOES GRINDING CHANGE MY FACE? ... If you clench or grind your teeth, its almost like going to the gym & lifting weights to build your muscles. The masseter muscle grows bigger & you can therefore see this more prominently like a fullness in your jaw or notice that your lower face has become more square or wider. HOW DO I KNOW IF I CLENCH OR GRIND? You might experience Jaw Pain or TMJ Pain ( just in front of your ears), usually upon waking but you can certainly have these symptoms during the day You may get headaches around the temple area You may notice that your face has widened or become more square or angular Your dentist may comment on damage to your teeth If you sleep next to someone they may complain they can hear you grinding your teeth during sleep I may notice that you have prominent masseters during a consult or other treatments HOW CAN IT BE TREATED? In clinic I can offer a simple, quick & relatively painless treatment with Wrinkle Relaxers. Just the same as we treat frown lines or smiles lines, the wrinkle relaxer injectjon helps to decrease the muscle activity over 4 to 6 weeks & can last from 4 to 6 months Injections to treat your masseter will also have the upside of facial slimming There are theories that clenching or grinding may be a symptom if underlying stress is present so addressing this & adopting relaxation measures is important I myself am a jaw clencher & have my masseters treated. This is certainly one of my favourite Injectable Treatments as it is a Medical Treatment & provides such Relief for many patients & improvement to their Quality of Life #teethgrinding #jawpain #medicalaesthetics #perthdoctor #preventativemedicine #drchristine #facebydrchristine #aestheticsforconfidence #perthskin #perthclinic #perthskinclinic #perthskincare #perthhealth #perthsmallbiz #perthmums #perthfitfam #perthbride #perthbrows #perthmakeupartists #perthcreatives See more
03.01.2022 I love a Quick & Easy recipe & this is one of my favourites. No need for puff pastry & super versatile. I often decrease the cheese a little & replace Ham with other options like Roast Vegies, Sweet Potato or Pumpkin, Roast Chicken & even Salmon. I also make it in a square oven safe dish & slice it up into smaller squares - perfect for the kids. Online / Phone Consultations available for Bariatric & Non-Bariatric Patients, New or my Regulars, Weight Loss or Non-Weight Loss Re...lated. All Bulk-Billed. No referral required.

03.01.2022 SUPPORT There are so many reasons for whether we struggle with our weight or dont. Whether we can easily "succeed" to lose weight & keep it off or dont. Alot of these factors are due to our genetics as well as the environment we are surrounded in. But essentially it means that if you have struggled with your weight for some time or if you have regained weight, even after Weight Loss Surgery..you need more than to go at it alone I am a big advocate for support. A pos...itive approach & one that is non-judgemental. Most of my patients I have known for years & we go through the highs & lows but the main thing is to not give up, to not shy away from followup because you feel you havent succeeded & importantly to know that it is more than just eating less & exercising more I still perform regular Bariatric Consults at Hollywood Medical Centre (Nedlands) & at the WOMEN Centre (West Leederville). Costs are minimal to help improve your access to followup care & most regular visits & all Lap Band Fills are still bulk-billed. Call to make an appointment. No referral needed Nedlands (08)63890244 West Leederville (08)94685188 x Dr C See more
