Your practitioner will discuss your concerns and medical history and assess the area. You can ask about the findings, whether further assessment is needed, and the risks and limitations of any options discussed.

Describe the area that concerns you, how long you have noticed it and any changes or symptoms. The assessment may indicate that further medical review is needed before considering cosmetic care.

A recommendation depends on the assessment. It may be appropriate to seek further assessment, consider alternatives or have no cosmetic procedure. Booking a consultation does not establish suitability.

No. You can ask questions, take time to consider the information and decide not to proceed. Confirm what the appointment includes and its fees with the clinic before booking.

Ask your practitioner to explain the evidence, limitations, risks, costs and alternatives. You can seek a second opinion before making a decision.

Ask what it involves, who would perform it, the evidence supporting it, common and serious risks, alternatives, costs and recovery needs. Consent should follow an individual assessment and a discussion of this information.

You can raise more than one concern. Your practitioner will explain what can be assessed in the appointment and whether a further consultation or referral is needed.

This depends on the assessment and any care you choose. Ask about follow-up arrangements and costs before agreeing to a plan. No course of procedures is established by an online enquiry.

No. Any proposed option has limitations, and individual responses vary. Ask what evidence supports the expected outcome and what uncertainty remains.

Explain what concerns you and what you hope to understand or change. Ask whether these expectations are realistic and whether any proposed option can address them.

This depends on the specific procedure and individual circumstances. Ask about evidence for the duration of effects, possible changes over time and any ongoing costs before deciding.

Discuss this possibility before consenting. Ask how outcomes would be reviewed and what support is available. Further procedures may not be appropriate, and additional treatment cannot guarantee a different result.

Medical conditions, medicines, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding, skin concerns and previous procedures may affect suitability. Provide this information during assessment. No procedure is suitable for everyone.

No. Assessment and appropriate clinical care can help manage risks, but procedures can still cause complications. Ask about both common and serious risks, aftercare, warning signs and who to contact if a problem occurs.

If a procedure is not clinically appropriate, it should not go ahead. Ask your practitioner to explain the reasons and discuss any appropriate alternatives, including no treatment.

Bring a list of medicines and supplements, relevant medical history, allergies and details of previous procedures. Note your questions and check any appointment instructions with the clinic.

Do not stop or change prescribed medicines without advice from your treating clinician. Tell the practitioner about all medicines and supplements so they can assess relevant risks.

Aftercare depends on the specific procedure and your circumstances. Obtain written instructions before proceeding, including when products can be used and what to do if irritation or other problems occur.

Recovery requirements depend on the procedure, your response and the demands of your work. Ask about expected downtime and possible complications before scheduling a procedure; same-day return to normal activity should not be assumed.

Ask for instructions specific to the procedure and your circumstances. Activity restrictions and recovery vary; a general webpage cannot establish when it is appropriate for you to resume exercise.
