Videoconsultations are conducted via our dedicated virtual clinic to maximise patient and staff safety. We require that all patients provide a referral prior to booking an appointment. We are currently booking routine, non-urgent new patient appointments many months ahead, and as such we recommend that patients with suspicious skin lesions (not biopsy proven skin cancers) seek biopsy and/or treatment from a provider with a shorter waiting list. Dr Tomlinson does not offer cosmetic surgery services or consultations and surgical services where a Medicare Rebatable Item Code does not apply; this includes adult otoplasty, injections for palmar hyperhidrosis and labiaplasty. Dr Tomlinson has scheduled sabbatical leave during much of October, November and December 2023 so will not be available for urgent or emergency referrals during that time.

Stratamark® stretch mark scar gel

Written by Dr Jill Tomlinson on .

Stratamark topical gel6002PPS0Stratamark® is the first and only medical product with clinically proven efficacy and safety for both prevention and treatment of stretch marks. Stratamark® was specifically developed for treatment and prevention of all types of stretch marks, including from pregnancy, adolescent growth spurts, weight gain, and bodybuilding.

Stratamark® is easily applied to all areas of the skin and is easy to spread over large surface areas, making it ideal for use on the buttocks, abdomen, thighs, breasts and back. When used as directed, Stratamark® dries to form a invisible sheet, a protective layer that is gas permeable and waterproof which hydrates and protects your stretch marks, allowing the skin to normalize the collagen synthesis cycle.
