THE CLINIC · NEW PROFILE
South Yarra and Port Melbourne. AHPRA-registered nurse injectors. A narrow menu, deeply specialised.
A new entry in The Glow List. We've been hearing good things about Dermaq from inside the industry — what's verifiable is a tight, injectables-led practice across two Melbourne addresses, a complimentary consult model, and a publicly stated preference for restraint over volume. Provisional Glow Score, opened June 2026; we will lift or trim it on the next visit cycle.
The clinic
Most South Yarra cosmetic clinics try to do everything — laser, peels, dermal therapy, injectables, threads, body. Dermaq has chosen to do less. The clinic is an injectables-led practice that has deliberately kept its menu around face work, regenerative pathways, and skin quality.
Dermaq operates two Melbourne locations. The flagship is Shop 4, 7 Yarra Street, South Yarra — one minute from South Yarra Station, in the Chapel Street precinct. The second clinic, at 457 Graham Street, Port Melbourne, opened more recently and serves the Bayside catchment with on-site free parking. Both clinics run the same menu and the same standard.
The practitioners are AHPRA-registered nurses. The product list is TGA-approved. The consultation model is what the clinic calls "obligation-free": a complimentary 15–30 minute appointment, with walk-ins welcomed on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. The house position, stated publicly, is that the team will turn away patients requesting work that doesn't suit their features — restraint as policy rather than as language.
What we couldn't verify in time for opening this profile: we have not yet matched named practitioners to AHPRA registration numbers, and we have not yet visited either clinic in person. The Glow Score here is provisional pending that work.

The three to book
An injectables-led practice with a clear hero category, a regenerative pathway, and a skin-quality protocol. Restraint over volume is the stated house position.
01 — Face work
Lip enhancement, cheek and jawline definition, chin contouring. Cannula-led technique where appropriate — typically less bruising and a more natural distribution than needle-only work. TGA-approved product list. Stated default position: under-treat rather than over-treat.
From $$$ · AHPRA-registered nurse · consult required

02 — Regenerative
Polynucleotide skin regeneration (Rejuran) and bio-stimulating injectables aimed at skin quality — barrier, texture, and underlying structure — rather than volume. The regenerative pathway is the clinic's stated alternative to chasing surface results with more filler.
From $$$ · multi-session protocol
Enquire →
03 — Skin quality
SkinPen microneedling for texture, scarring, and collagen stimulus; skin-boosting injectables for hydration and surface quality. The third pillar of the menu — what the clinic uses when the answer is not anti-wrinkle, and not volume.

A narrow menu, done well, is worth more than a broad menu done averagely.
