What we offer at Northern Dermatology
Allergy Patch Testing
Allergy patch testing is offered at Northern Dermatology using the Australian Baseline Series. This patch testing series consists of the 60 most common allergens in Australia which are applied to the back for 2 days. A positive test causes inflammation of the skin beneath the patch. The positive tests are then matched with the clinical history and the appropriate allergens can be avoided. Skin prink testing is not offered at Northern Dermatology.
