What an assessment can explore
Your face is assessed at rest and in movement, and your hands and body with the same care, always in the context of your health and any previous treatment.
Lines and facial movement
Lines across the forehead, between the brows or around the eyes, and how they change with expression. Assessment considers skin, movement and anatomy, and never assumes that normal features need treating.
Lower face and neck
The chin, the corners of the mouth, the jawline and bands in the neck, assessed alongside muscle movement and skin.
Jaw muscles and proportions
Jaw clenching, teeth grinding or a broad lower face may relate to the jaw muscles. Your medical and dental history help put these concerns in context, and some are better assessed with dental or specialist input.
Cheeks, lips and profile
Your features are considered together, at rest and in movement, with an honest explanation of what each option can and cannot do.
Hands
The backs of the hands often show change early, through sun exposure and gradual loss of volume. Thin or crepey skin, more visible veins and tendons, and uneven tone can be assessed and the options explained.
Neck, chest and body
Crepey skin on the neck and chest, laxity on the arms, knees or abdomen, and stretch marks are assessed with the same care, with an honest view of what each option can and cannot do.
Your features, your heritage
Facial features differ between heritages, and there is no single ideal. We respect the features you want to keep, and plan around your skin type, because some procedures carry a higher risk of pigment change in deeper skin tones.
Previous-treatment concerns
Concerned about a previous treatment? Bring any records, dates and product details you have. Every concern is assessed carefully, although a particular result cannot be promised.
Clarity before a decision
First we understand your concerns, health and past experiences. Then any procedure is discussed in full: the evidence and limits, risks, alternatives, recovery, aftercare and cost.
You will have time to think and ask questions. Further assessment, a second opinion, skincare advice or no treatment may be the right answer. If you go ahead, review is agreed in advance.
Cosmetic consultations are for adults aged 18 and over. Treatment only goes ahead where it is clinically appropriate and you have given informed consent, and there is never an obligation to proceed.
Risks, recovery and review
Every procedure has its own risks, and results vary. Your consultation covers both common effects and rare but serious complications, and every treatment comes with written aftercare and a clear way to reach us.
Severe pain, unusual changes in skin colour or visual symptoms after a procedure need urgent medical assessment. This information is not a substitute for individual aftercare instructions.
Your questions, welcomed.
Do I need to choose a procedure first?
No. Begin with the concern and your questions. Assessment and a discussion of the options come before a decision.
Can I discuss a previous treatment?
Yes. Records help. Sometimes the answer is further tests or a referral rather than another procedure.
Why are treatments not named on this page?
Australian law does not allow prescription medicines to be advertised to the public, including by brand names, nicknames or general descriptions. So this page describes the concerns you can bring. In a consultation, every suitable option is explained in full: what it involves, its risks, the alternatives and the cost.
