Despite your best efforts, you may have noticed that your skin isn’t quite as dewy and glowing as you might like. It is almost impossible to weather winter in Balgowlah or anywhere else in Australia without being affected by indoor heat and outdoor cold. This is particularly true of facial skin.
Is dull, ageing skin making you look older than you feel? It’s natural … winter is hard on adult skin. It’s difficult for it to keep plump and hydrated in the face of plummeting temperatures and indoor heat. If your skin is dry, deflated, chapped, or itchy, and looks as bad as it feels, you need help. Sanctuary in Balgowlah is the place to find it.
When patients prepare to leave the Sanctuary after a skin rejuvenation treatment this month, many will wish they could take home members of our staff and enjoy Austin Clinic’s bespoke skin pampering each and every day. That’s sweet, but impractical. We can, however, come close, with a self-help skincare routine curated just for you.
It’s a simple and irrefutable equation: dry air equals dry skin. And when winter comes to Australia, patients come to the skincare experts at Austin Clinic for help with dull, flaky complexions sorely in need of hydration.
At Austin Clinic, we love beads in jewellery, but not in our skincare. Microbeads are tiny pieces of plastic added to products to give them a gritty texture. Manufacturers hail them as a way to deep-clean your pores, but we believe the cost to your skin and to your planet is simply too high.
Cold weather can transform a radiant complexion into something dull, dry, and lifeless. If cold weather is the problem, is there an antidote? You won’t believe the array of treatments and products we have for bringing dead looking skin back to life.

Australians love to sweat … at the gym, on the beach, or in a good sauna. The problem with all that good sweat is that it’s filled with bad bacteria. Excessive sweating can turn your skin into a pimple parlour while simultaneously drying it out.
The Sydney Morning Herald says eczema currently affects 800,000 Australians. If you or someone you care about is one of them, you already know what a challenging skin condition it is. The good news: It doesn’t have to be!
