How Old Is YOuR SKIN? (HOYS)
The HOYS program is a unique approach to understanding and analysing the age and health of a patient’s skin, resulting in the production of a meaningful and individualised treatment plan.
The aim of HOYS is to help patients to understand that everyone’s skin ages and does so fairly predictably. However, we are all made up of bits and pieces (e.g. eyes, nose, lips, facial shape and surface) ageing at slightly different rates depending on genetics and environment. Because of this everyone has areas ageing particularly well and areas ageing a bit prematurely. HOYS helps you to identify your specific areas that may be ageing prematurely and then focusses treatment suggestions on these areas. HOYS allows you to most effectively form a targeted and individual treatment plan to make you look younger and your skin look healthier.
SCRIPT - Skin Type Testing
The importance of skin care cannot be under-estimated, particularly now that there are a number of products on the market that make a visible difference in combating the signs of ageing and addressing dermatological concerns. However, not all skin ranges are created equal and no skin care range is a complete inventory of home skin care products.
The Dermatology Institute of Victoria is at the forefront of its field in harnessing the best of science and technology to match patients to their appropriate skin care. Script a personalised skin care prescription service developed by Assoc. Prof. Goodman provides guidance to those attempting to find a path through the maze of skin care products. Based on his belief that everyone's skin is different, he has created a skin type testing questionnaire that enables the staff at the Dermatology Institute of Victoria to provide individualised skin care recommendations.
DIV recommends that all patients undergo a complimentary Skin Type Test before embarking on a skincare routine. This way patient's can be assured the products they are using are suitable for their particular skin type.
