Registered Physician: Qualified Medical Practitioner
Your First Facial Aesthetics Consultation
Initial consultations allow time for an unhurried discussion and thorough medical assessment. Your first visit will look something like:
Step 1 | Goals & Medical History
A private and realistic discussion about your aesthetic goals, ageing concerns and a review of your medical history.
Step 2 | Clinical Assessment
A detailed assessment of your facial anatomy, bone structure and skin condition to understand the changes associated with facial ageing.
Step 3 | Tailored Planning
Creation of a personalised management plan specific to your skin health, from clinical treatment options to medically guided home care.
Step 4 | Informed Choices
A clear explanation of your options, including risks along with the potential benefits and technology used, to support you in making an informed decision.
Step 5 | Treatment (If Suitable)
If clinical suitability and consent are established, treatment may be performed during this session or scheduled for a follow-up appointment.
The Science of Ageing Skin
Fine lines and wrinkles are a biological result of genetics, hormones and environmental factors like sun damage. The skin’s structure relies on two main proteins:
- Collagen: The protein responsible for skin firmness and volume.
- Elastin: The fibres that help skin maintain elasticity.
As the body matures, natural collagen production slows and elastin fibres weaken. This biological shift results in a loss of elasticity, leading to visible changes like sagging skin, creases, fine lines and wrinkles.
Schedule a dermatological consultation to discuss your skin concerns and understand the biological changes you may be experiencing.
