Dr Sarah Podmore MBBS (UWA) FRACGP
Owner and Medical Doctor
This is her baby, but she never imagined she’d be able to do it alongside the hardest working girls in the biz.
“I have always wanted to create a workspace that empowers women. Our clinic is 100% owned and operated by females.”
After working around the globe as a General Practitioner, and spending a fair amount of time at Royal Perth Hospital, Dr Sarah’s fate changed after getting her annual skin cancer checkup. That was it for her. She fell head over heels for skin.
She now considers herself as a GP with a special interest in skin cancer detection and management, and cosmetic skin treatments. Moving back to her home town of Margaret River as a rural GP is a childhood dream come true.
When Dr Sarah is not working as a GP in Busselton or volunteering as a medic on weekends at sporting events, you might catch her at F45 (with the EA girls!) or out and about in Margs walking her gorgeous husky Echo.
Favourite Treatment: I love getting a chemical peel. My skin looks so radiant afterwards.
Skin Tip: Moisturise every day.

Jess Wells
Senior Dermal Therapist
Jess’ favourite space in a beauty clinic is the beauty bed. It brings her an instant sense of relaxation and calmness.
“Always fresh, clean and welcoming, the beauty bed is the heart of any room.” Jess has 2 beautiful kids, collects tattoos and has confessed a love for speedway and all things cars. She first met Dr Sarah when they worked at Coles Supermarket as teens together. Jess was the deli chick, Sarah in fruit and veg.
Five times generational to Margaret River, it’s the beautiful sense of community and support for one another that keeps her here. Jess has loved the beauty industry for as long as she can remember and enrolled in Beauty College as soon as she could. It was the perfect eyebrows, the flawless makeup and the immaculate attire of the girls who worked at the local beauty salon that drew her in. Oh and the wafting smell of strawberries and coconut! She wanted in, she wanted to be one of those girls.
Here she is, as amazing as ever, our Senior Beauty Therapist and she can’t wait to see the incredible boost in confidence in clients.
Favourite Treatment: IPL. It hurts a little but zap that pigmentation right off me baby! Oh and fillers, I am absolutely petrified of ageing and Dr Sarah is the queen of putting a stop to those fine lines and wrinkles.
Skin Tip: Sunscreen, sunscreen, SUNSCREEN! Never wear make up to bed.
Anna Ryan
Senior Dermal Therapist
It’s watching a clients skin journey unfold that keeps Anna’s love for skin alive. It’s seeing them from the first visit, following them along, seeing the changes and seeing them reach their goals, that she finds so exciting!
This is what she loves doing, and even better the people she gets to work alongside make it even better.
Whilst she owned her own beauty salon for ten years, Anna now lives in Margs with her family. She appreciates the wildness, the spectacular coastline and the fact she can always find herself alone at the beach.
Favourite Treatment: Venus Viva Diamond Polar: I am really enjoying performing this luxe treatment on clients, it’s so relaxing and decadent, and the results I am seeing are really exciting. The Diamond Polar stimulates deep collagen and elastin production, leaving you with firmer, more lifted and smooth skin. With an antioxidant rich peel added in for extra brightening, the results after just one are beautiful but a course of Diamond Polar are where I’m seeing amazing results. There’s no pain involved and is suitable for nearly all ages and skin types, I just love it!
Skin Tip: As a therapist I cannot tell you how important a solid routine is for your skin at home. There’s no cheating, or magic one ingredient, that gives you healthy, beautiful skin. It’s doing the steps, morning and night. But it doesn’t have to be complicated, and when you’ve got the right products to use at home, you start seeing the results, and the magic happens! Together, homecare and treating you in clinic, we can help guide you to fabulous skin

Sara Lavis
Cosmetic Nurse
Principle nurse injector at
@skincollectiveau
Sara is our Cosmetic Nurse and go-to gut-guru. Whilst based at Royal Perth Hospital as an Emergency Nurse, she’ll also be assisting with treatments at the new Margaret River clinic and our regular Esperance clinic.
Sara’s love affair with skin stemmed from her time studying the gut and working as a Colonic Hydrotherapist in a skin clinic.
Her nursing history boasts a Masters in Public Health and Tropical Medicine which opened her to the world of preventative health. She also spent some time in East Timor which she describes as the driving force behind her focus on Emergency Medicine.
Years later, the skin still ceases to amaze her. She describes the integrity of someone’s skin as a reflection on every aspect of them as an individual. “It affects how they carry themselves in their every day life, and is affected by stress, hormones, the environment and can give you an insight into their gut health.”
Forever fascinated with the world of health, Sara can’t wait to help you feel more confident in your own skin.
Oh and she’s also a qualified personal trainer!
Favourite Treatment: Skin needling- because even after one treatment you can see amazing changes in skin texture and clarity.
Skin Tip: Environstat 50+ sunscreen! Sunscreen is definitely the most important anti-aging product to use daily.
