A consultation does not guarantee that a procedure will be recommended or performed. Cosmetic procedures carry risks and may not be suitable for everyone. Outcomes, recovery and longevity differ between individuals.

How we work
Quality comes from the decisions made before treatment.
- 01
Assessment first
Recommendations are based on your medical history, anatomy, goals and clinical suitability — never on a menu.
- 02
Clear information
You'll hear about potential benefits, limitations, risks, recovery, costs and alternatives before you decide anything.
- 03
No obligation
A consultation is for information. It doesn't commit you to a procedure, and no treatment is a valid outcome.
- 04
Follow-up & aftercare
Where treatment goes ahead, you'll receive aftercare guidance and a follow-up arrangement with your clinician.
Patient education
The fundamentals of facial ageing. And how they shape the advice we give.
Ageing is a normal part of life, and it involves more than the skin. Over the decades, skin thins, the facial bones gradually reshape, ligaments relax and fat pads change in size and settle lower. In aesthetic medicine and skin care, understanding how a face ages comes before any advice. It guides how we assess what you've noticed and how we explain what skin treatments can and can't do. Sometimes the right answer is no treatment at all.
Ageing happens in layers
Skin, fat, ligaments and bone all change over time, so something you notice rarely has a single cause.
Timing differs for everyone
Genetics, sun exposure, smoking, weight change and general health all influence how and when these changes appear.
Honest about limits
Skin treatments work mainly on the skin itself, so they reach only some of the layers involved in ageing.

Do I need to know which treatment to ask for?
No. Most people come in with a concern rather than a treatment in mind. Request a general consultation and tell us briefly what you'd like to discuss.
Will a procedure be recommended?
Only if it's clinically appropriate. Your clinician may recommend a skin treatment, a referral, or no treatment at all.
Can I be treated at my first visit?
Some treatments require a separate appointment or time to consider the information you've been given. Your clinician will explain what applies to you.
Who will I see?
Cosmetic consultations are led by Kirby Shannon, a Registered Nurse and clinical trainer with more than ten years in cosmetic practice, working within a doctor-led clinical team.
Can you tell me about prices or products over the phone?
We're happy to talk about consultation fees and skin or body treatment pricing. Cosmetic treatment options and costs are discussed during your consultation with a registered practitioner.
