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.
