Not every skin flare-up needs specialist treatment.

But if you’re:-
~ Repeatedly changing products without improvement
~ Relying on short-term fixes to control symptoms
~ Avoiding activities because your skin is uncomfortable
~ Or finding flare-ups are becoming more frequent

…it’s usually a sign the condition is not being managed effectively long-term.

For many patients, specialist treatment is less about starting from scratch and more about finding a personalised routine that stays effective.

Gloves, parasols, and hats.

Long before SPF 50+, people were already protecting their skin from the Hawke’s Bay sun.

A lot has changed since the 1930s. 

The importance of sun protection hasn’t. Make sure your SPF is included in your Winter Art Deco outfit this weekend.

Our clinic will be closed on Friday 10 July for Matariki.

Matariki is a time to pause, reflect, reconnect, and look ahead, something winter naturally encourages us to do a little more of.

We hope everyone enjoys a safe and restful long weekend with friends and whānau.

The clinic will reopen as normal on Monday 13 July.

Winter can leave skin feeling dry, dull and harder to settle.

That is where a customised facial can help. At Dermatology Hawke’s Bay, every facial is tailored to what your skin needs on the day. For Kristen, that meant a light pumpkin exfoliating peel, followed by a hydrating enzyme mask to refresh and replenish her skin.

Because winter skin does not need a one-size-fits-all treatment. It needs the right treatment. Book your custom facial and give your skin a winter reset.

Dermatology Hawke’s Bay offers virtual consultations for a range of skin conditions, helping patients access specialist advice sooner, wherever they’re based.

For many patients, an online consultation can help clarify:
~ Whether treatment is needed
~ What the next steps are
~ Whether an in-person appointment is recommended

Specialist care goes beyond the surface, and sometimes that starts online.

#OnlineConsultation #DermatologyHB #SkinHealth #HawkesBay
Cold air, indoor heating, hot showers, and sudden changes in temperature can all make facial redness more noticeable. Skin may feel more sensitive, flush more easily, or become harder to manage with the products that normally work.

For people with rosacea, winter is often when symptoms become more noticeable.

If your skin is constantly red, reactive, or prone to flushing, understanding the cause is the first step towards managing it properly.

No GP referral required.

A specialist skin check is usually much more straightforward than people expect.

At Dermatology Hawke’s Bay, your appointment is designed to be thorough, systematic, and reassuring.

Most appointments involve:
~ Reviewing specific spots or concerns
~ Examining areas that are difficult to check yourself
~ Discussing whether monitoring, biopsy, or treatment is recommended

Dermatologist care goes beyond the surface, meaning patients leave with a clearer understanding of any areas of concern and what, if anything, happens next.

#SkinChecks #DermatologyHB #SkinHealth #HawkesBay
Winter is often when underlying skin conditions become more difficult to manage consistently. ❄️

For many chronic skin conditions, dermatology is about long-term management:-
~ Reducing flare-ups
~ Controlling symptoms
~ Protecting the skin barrier
~ Adjusting treatment over time

Persistent or worsening symptoms should be assessed by a skin care specialist, particularly when standard treatments stop working as expected.

#WinterSkin #DermatologyHB #SkinHealth #HawkesBay
Skin changes are often easier to notice in winter.

With less sun exposure and fewer distractions from summer activities, many people become more aware of spots or changes on their skin.

That makes winter a practical time to book a skin check, particularly for anything you’ve noticed that’s new, changing, or slow to heal.

Early assessment can make a significant difference to what treatment looks like, particularly when changes are identified before they progress further.

#SkinChecks #DermatologyHB #SkinHealth #HawkesBay
Many skin concerns look similar at first glance. They’re not.

That’s the difference between monitoring something safely and missing something important.

If you’re unsure what you’re looking at, a specialist assessment gives you a clear answer.
