Meet the team @ The Skin Corrective Centre
HEIDI NICHOLS
Director & Dermal Clinician
For Heidi, a career in skin began with her own experience.
Born and raised in Dubbo and attending St John’s College, Heidi experienced severe acne, rosacea and psoriasis throughout her high school years. At the time, she found it incredibly difficult to access clear education and guidance around the prevention, treatment and ongoing management of skin conditions, an experience that would ultimately shape the direction of her career.
After completing her HSC, Heidi moved to Sydney and began her studies with a Diploma of Beauty Therapy, followed by further education in IPL & Laser Safety, advanced dermal and skin treatment modalities, and ultimately an Degree in Applied Health Science (Dermal Science).
Her career has extended well beyond the treatment room. Heidi gained extensive experience in business development, professional education and industry training, working with companies including Nimue Skin Technology, CPL Group and Australian Skin Active Products ASAP, before progressing to the role of National Education Manager for Karpati Corporation.
After returning home to Dubbo to start a family, Heidi co-founded The Skin Corrective Centre in 2009, with a vision to provide regional clients with access to professional skin education, evidence-informed treatment programs and advanced dermal technologies.
Today, that passion is stronger than ever.
Heidi has a particular interest in IPL and laser technologies, plasma treatments and advanced dermal therapies, and is continually researching and introducing technologies and treatment protocols that prioritise clinical outcomes, safety and efficacy.
Having personally experienced the impact that problematic skin can have on confidence and wellbeing, Heidi remains incredibly passionate about helping patients better understand their skin, not simply treating what is visible, but providing the multi-disciplinary guidance, education and long-term management strategies she wished had been available to her all those years ago.
“Skin has never just been my career, it has been a lifelong passion. I want every patient who walks through our doors to feel heard, educated and confident that there are options available to help them achieve healthier skin.”
