About this consultation
A consultation gives you time to discuss facial lines, your skin care and your expectations. You do not need to choose a treatment first. The assessment can help you compare possible approaches, their limits and the option of continuing without a cosmetic procedure.
At your consultation
Explain what you have noticed
Describe the areas you want to discuss and when the lines are most noticeable. Bring information about your usual skin care, relevant health history and previous treatments.
Compare the options
Discuss your current routine, whether any treatment might be appropriate and what each proposed option could reasonably involve. Ask about limitations, risks and the choice to have no treatment.
Take time to decide
If a plan is proposed, review what it includes, who would carry it out and the complete cost. Ask how to seek advice afterwards. Agree the plan and quotation before treatment, when you feel ready.
Risks & considerations
- A consultation does not guarantee a particular procedure or result, and you can decide against treatment.
- Tell the practitioner about skin sensitivities, relevant health conditions, medicines and recent treatments before considering a plan.
- Confirm the consultation fee before booking. Any treatment price depends on an individual assessment and the agreed plan.
Common questions
Do I have to choose a treatment before booking?
No. The starting point is what you have noticed and the questions you would like answered. You can discuss skin care, possible treatment approaches and the option of making no change.
Can I take time to consider the advice?
Yes. A consultation does not require you to continue with treatment. You can review the information, ask more questions or seek another opinion before deciding.
Are consultation and treatment fees the same?
Do not assume a treatment price includes the consultation. Ask the team about consultation charges before booking. If a treatment is proposed after assessment, confirm the full quotation, what it includes and any separate review charges before proceeding.
Your suitability needs to be assessed by a qualified practitioner. Ask about expected benefits, limitations, risks and alternatives.
