Thank you Advanced Skin and Beauty Clinic

After just 1 treatment and you can see a visible difference in my skins appearance.

My skin looks radiant, smooth and plumped up. When you only do one treatment it is a refreshing peel but, when you do multiple treatments it really has a lasting result.

All Carbon Laser Facials are recommended to be spaced every 1-4 weeks.

This gives your skin time to produce collagen and elastin. The more treatments performed the better the results.

The Carbon Laser Peel, also known as the China Doll Peel or The Hollywood peel, is a mildly exfoliating and resurfacing procedure that improves the appearance of fine wrinkles, pigment, pores, and acne.

Carbon Laser Peel is a no-downtime laser facial that helps rejuvenate the appearance of aging, damaged skin. It evens skin tone, reducing the appearance of pigment, fine lines, and acne scars. Skin instantly looks and feels younger.

It has long been a favorite of celebrities such as Angelina Jolie and Kim Kardashian before red carpet appearances as it is a great way to get a quick skin refresher without the longer downtime associated with chemical peels and other laser procedures.

* Benefits of the Carbon Laser Peel

* Improved skin tone and texture

* Glowing, youthful-looking skin

* Smoother, softer feel

* Reduction of fine lines

* Collagen stimulation

* Safe for all skin tones

* Pore size reduction

* No downtime

* Comfortable procedure

How does the Hollywood Laser Peel work?

A light layer of a carbon-based lotion is applied over the skin giving the appearance of a mud mask. The laser will be passed several times over the area being treated, first heating up the lotion then removing it along with the top layer of dead skin. The heat from the laser also causes the skin to contract while at the same time stimulating the building of collagen which improves skin elasticity.

This superficial peeling removes excessive sebum, exfoliates the upper layer of skin and unplugs pores, resulting in smoother looking skin. The treatment can be performed alone before an important event but works best when several treatments are done over a period of time.

What to expect during your treatment:

A light layer of a carbon-based lotion is applied to your skin and needs to set for 10-15 minutes. The first pass of the laser sets the carbon onto the skin.

You will hear snapping sounds when the laser is fired and will feel a slight tingling or warmth as the laser removes the carbon, along with a very fine layer of skin (the peel).

The entire procedure is 30 minutes or less.

Is there any downtime? Does the Laser Peel hurt?

With no downtime and minimal side effects, you may immediately return to your daily activities. Your skin will be smoother and glowing, so it is the perfect treatment to have before a big event.

Thanks to Melanie Rumler and the team at Advanced Skin and Beauty, my skin has never been better.

Every time i walk into the clinic I am always greeted with a tea and a glass of water along with a friendly chat. The beds are always so warm and cosey as they are heated.

I've been having a course of LED treatments on my face as i have suffered severe acne in the past. My skin has honestly never looked or felt better. It’s so clear, smooth and radiant. I always feel so relaxed after a treatment. Can’t wait for my next one.

See you soon 😍😍😍

Love the girls here, they are always so welcoming and knowledgeable and my skin has never felt so good. I know I’m in the best hands when I come here! Love that I can come early to get my skin fix before work! Thank you!

Amazing results and services. So many different treatments and staff knowledge is excellent

Love coming here, the girls are alway so welcoming and I love the homemade tea I get on arrival...its amazing!

My skin has improved so much since i started having treatments here and using Matrix Dr. products. The opening hours are fabulous. I buy gift vouchers every year for my family and friends for Christmas and Birthdays and they all love it! Keep up the good work girls.

Hi i am getting married on march 11th and have 6 bridesmaid who need their hair and make up done. how much do you charge per person?

Thanks for recommending Meg!! I love my cut and delicious hair colour, so much softer than my old hair style. Loved the follow up blowdry and make up she did for my birthday dinner as well! I will be back again and again!

Thanks for recommending meg , I had my hair cut , coloured and she did my make-up for stage , she was professional and delightful, I felt entirely pampered and "ready for my close up! "

Meg Guthrie is the ultimate professional. Her work on hair and makeup is great- she knows how to make a gal look and feel a million $$$! Flexible times, nothing too much trouble, great work space. yeah - Meg's on speed dial.

Meg did my makeup for an engagement party. I had such a fun afternoon getting ready in her gorgeous salon. My makeup was flawless. She's truly amazing x

After the sudden death of my husband my health was at an all time low. Being in touch with Jenny from House of Maxx for all my health concerns was the best thing I did for myself. My gut issues subsided, I lost weight, I was able to ease my stress levels with help and guidance of Jenny and put me on the path to health and happiness

I have always wanted to take good care of my skin but felt salons to be of a woman's domain.

I had my first facial at House of Maxx and felt so comfortable I fell asleep! I am booked in to for another in 4 weeks.

A Very impressive salon! So much class and style. Nothing but professionalism, friendly faces and products that feel amazing. Thank you ladies for looking after me and giving my skin exactly what it needs. I finally have the right products in my bathroom!! I look forward to some beautiful treatments soon.

I just had a full set of lashes done by Allena at House of Maxx and the results are better than I could of imagined!! Thanks girls xx

Came in for the first time after a close friend recommended me. From the moment I walked in, WOW!! what an atmosphere, everyone is so nice, vibrant and friendly. What a team of beautiful people. This has been the best decision choosing this hairdressers that I've ever made in my life, I was matched with a wonderful creative stylist, who has an amazing talent with people and hair. From go we clicked and I couldn't be happier. I knew I could leave absolute trust in his hands, leaving all decisions, colour and cut up to him. After 4hrs for a major transformation. Omg total mind blowing. Has made me glow. My attitude was transformed. I walked out dancing, literally with a bounce in my step... Thank you so much

Love my hair and love all the girls there!! Thank you so much xx

True Colours would have to be the most professional and friendly salon in the bay side area! Having tried many of the salons along Bay Street, Port Melbourne I struggle to get a good cut that sits well after I leave the salon!

I was unfortunately blessed with curly frizzy hair that I have never been able to let dry naturally and leave out until I actually got a good cut that suits my face and at a very reasonable price.

Thank you True Colours for making all my hair dreams come true!

Joe’s dry cutting technique was a revelation! He completely re-educated me on my hair with an introduction to his Spray Leave-In Conditioner (versus the conventional stuff). I used to feel so-so about my hair, now I love it! Thanks Joe!

To put it simple!, If you want the best hair cut EVER and one that makes you look fabulous go to Joe Giampa.

He cut, shaped and styled my long hair to perfection. FINALLY, I found someone I can trust with my hair.. He does a one on one without interruptions, just totally professional.

He has his own hair products which i thought i'd purchased to try. Money well spent.. I brought his spray leave in condition and his Define and shine pomade HIs products are Rose Scent and smell absolutely divine.. I love what he did with my hair, I will be returning definitely.

Joe is an incredibly skilled cutter and colourist. Very talented and experienced. Very professional and personable. Love my hair and would highly recommend him to others

My first appointment at Poser last week was the Best!!

Joe is truly the Master of Haircuts!!

I left the Salon Very Happy with my new haircut!!

Thank you so much Joe.

Joe cut my hair for the first time this week. He is the fifth hairdresser I have seen since moving to Melbourne four years ago,



Happily I can say with confidence that I have finally found my hairdresser. His experience, skill and natural talent coupled with his warmth and ability to truly listen enables him to deliver a hair cut that suits both his client’s look and lifestyle.

I'm interested in your duo room for couples, could you send me your different packages and costs please. I'm wanting this for the 14thOctober, please let me know asap as I will need to book accommodation as we are from the country.

kind regards Kim

I would like to have hair and face make over, thank you.

Hi was wondering if you free on the 11th march for 6 bridesmaids for hair and makeup? also how much do you charge?

Hi My name is Marie, I have had Jacqueline Parker Hair and Makeup do my makeup for me on quite a few occassions,for my BIG 40th...she made my hair and make up pure vintage style...photo's and memories I will keep for ever.



I get invited to the races every year and I always call Jacqueline for my hair and makeup.



She gives me the sun kissed look,people always say how natural and flawless my makeup looks.



Fantastic Artist Jaquie...Thank you for bringing your creative flair to me everytime..:)

I flew over to Australia for my wedding from NZ. I'd never used Jacqueline Parker before and was crossing my fingers it would all work out. Sara and Olivia did my hair and makeup (as well as my mum's hair) and they were amazing! They were more than I could have ever hoped for and did such a beautiful job (as well as being the loveliest people). Feel SO lucky to have had them be part of my day and can't recommend them enough - they are so talented. I am trying to think of an excuse to come back to Melbourne so I can use them again!

Jacqueline's company was absolutely amazing on my wedding day. The artists she sent me were exceptionally talented, professional and friendly. I looked and felt so beautiful and everything ran so smoothly. HIGHLY Recommended!

Loved my facial treatment. My skin has never been smoother.

I'm a older client returning to this excellent salon. I had hip replacement surgery recently and due to lack of mobility prior to the procedure, I had almost a year's growth of dry, grey, long, almost matted hair. I went in apologetic for the difficulty of the job I was presenting.

Jade, my stylist for the day, was beyond all expectations in every way. It wasn't just the coffee, the massage etc, but the exceptional personal manner with which she treated me: friendly, patient, understanding, she made me feel like I was the most valued client. Not a shred of patronising, which older clients often get from professionals, and which vexes me a lot.

As for her technical skills, I cannot praise them enough. My colour and cut were perfect, rejuvenating my looks and psychology.

I'm not going anywhere else.

Can't thank you enough, Jade!

The staff are really talented and know what they are doing! I 100% recommend !

The team at Rare Earth are professional and friendly. The environment is relaxed, warm and clean!!! They really know how to interpret a client's requirements into a stunning cut & style. I'll never go anywhere else.

Vanessa, Craig and their team are exceptional - friendly, committed and very professional. Highly recommended for their creativity and outstanding service with every team member so obviously dedicated to their work. Treat yourself to their unique services including a relaxation massage and a hair treatment by Emily - fabulous. The best salon in Melbourne - so pleased they were recommended to me. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

It's no wonder this boutique salon in Melbourne is winning major National Awards. Craig and the team have a level of service and love for their job like nowhere i've ever experienced. Treat yourself to the Urban Escape experience, you won't regret it.

Oh, and their 2 beautiful staffies Duke and Dazey will melt your heart.

I have not been yet but this salon has been very highly recommended to me. Lovely ladies. Top service. Good colours see you soon. What else looking forward to go.

This company is very underhanded and will rip you off without a second thought. Their treatments are also very average for the exorbitant amount they charge

Don't waste your money. There is so much better for less in Melbourne and businesses that actually care about their customers. I found them to be lacking in any form of business ethics.

This is simply the best in Melbourne i can see why there ranked so high
