Why Us?
Specialist dermatology and laser care
Dr Kevin McKerrow is a dermatologic and laser surgeon with experience in cosmetic laser and surgical dermatology. He specialises in Mohs micrographic surgery and reconstruction and introduced Mohs surgery for skin cancer to New Zealand in 1989. His areas of practice also include laser and energy-based treatments, scar correction and procedures for fine lines and wrinkles.
As Director of Skin Specialist Centre, Dr McKerrow works with a team that provides medical and surgical dermatology alongside laser, light and energy-based treatments. These include options for tattoos, unwanted hair, port-wine stains, rosacea, skin tightening, skin rejuvenation and scars.
Treatment options and technology
We provide a broad range of laser, light and energy-based treatments alongside medical and surgical care. The option recommended depends on the condition, skin type and individual goals.
Specialist dermatologists
Our medical consultants are specialist dermatologists who have completed extensive postgraduate training.
Individual treatment plans
We assess each concern, discuss appropriate options and recommend an individual treatment plan. Results and treatment timeframes vary between patients.
What this means for you
Your dermatologist will explain what treatment can reasonably achieve, what to expect and how long it may take. We review progress and can adjust the plan as needed.
Where appropriate, some concerns may be managed at the same time. For example, acne scarring may be treated while active acne is being managed.
Most treatments and procedures are provided at our main Remuera centre. Dr Aravind Chandran also holds a Tuesday clinic in Henderson for consultations and minor skin surgery.
