Featured Treatments at The DOC Cosmetic Clinic
Keloid Scar Treatment
Scars can develop after surgery, injury, or infection, and in some cases, they can form as raised or enlarged areas known as keloids. These scars can extend beyond the original wound, sometimes causing discomfort. At The DOC Clinic, Dr Omarjee offers medical consultations for patients seeking advice and management options for keloid and hypertrophic scarring.
Keloid scar management may involve several approaches depending on the scar’s size, behaviour, and location. Options can include surgical management, the use of medicines with anti-inflammatory properties, or other non-surgical methods.
Appointments are generally spaced several weeks apart, allowing time for the skin to respond between visits. Consultations include an assessment of the scar and a discussion of aftercare to support recovery. Depending on individual circumstances, some medically relevant consultations may attract a Medicare rebate.

Radiofrequency Mole Treatment
Moles appear as small areas of darker pigmentation on the skin and may vary in size, shape, and colour. For some patients, raised or prominent moles can be a cosmetic concern. The DOC Clinic offers radiofrequency mole treatment, an option for managing benign raised moles that have been medically assessed as safe to remove for aesthetic reasons.
This method uses a device known as the Ellman Radiofrequency Surgitron, which allows careful and controlled removal of layers of the mole while cauterising the area (using heat to close and protect the surface). The procedure is conducted in a clinical setting, and recovery time can vary depending on individual circumstances. Patients receive aftercare guidance, including information on sun protection and skincare.
As with all medical procedures, there are some risks, including residual pigmentation, infection, or scarring. Dr Omarjee ensures patients are fully informed about these factors before proceeding. Cosmetic mole removal is not eligible for Medicare rebates unless a biopsy is clinically required as part of the process.

Wrinkle Treatments
At The DOC Clinic, consultations are available for patients who want to discuss non-surgical options for wrinkle concerns. Wrinkles can develop naturally over time and may appear on areas such as the forehead, around the eyes, or near the mouth.
During a consultation, Dr Omarjee will assess each patient’s circumstances and outline suitable options for managing these concerns. Approaches may vary depending on factors such as facial structure, skin characteristics, and personal goals.
Possible risks, such as redness, swelling, or temporary discomfort, are explained during the consultation. This allows patients to make informed decisions and understand the recommended aftercare for their individual situation.
