Understand
your options.
Overview
Collagen is a structural protein in the skin. Changes in texture or firmness can have several contributing factors; appearance alone does not establish their cause.
Discuss your concerns about skin quality, firmness or texture with your practitioner. Your consultation explores the role of collagen, how ageing, lifestyle and environmental factors affect the skin, and whether any non-surgical option may be appropriate.
Suitability
Your practitioner will review your skin, concerns, goals, medical history, medicines and previous procedures. Suitability depends on your individual assessment and the specific option being considered.
A consultation or online enquiry does not establish that a procedure is suitable. Your practitioner may recommend further assessment, a referral or no cosmetic procedure.
Preparation
Bring details of your medicines, allergies, skin concerns and previous procedures, along with the questions you would like answered.
Ask the clinic whether you should arrive with clean, product-free skin or follow any other preparation instructions. Do not stop prescribed medicines without advice from your treating practitioner.
What to expect
Results and timelines vary with your skin and the option discussed. Ask what evidence supports it, what it can and cannot achieve, and whether maintenance may be needed.
Before deciding, discuss potential benefits, common and serious risks, limitations, costs, recovery and alternatives, including no procedure. You can take time to decide or seek a second opinion; a consultation does not commit you to treatment.

01Plan your consultation
Meet with an experienced practitioner to discuss your skin concerns and assess whether collagen-supporting options may be appropriate for you. Your clinician will review your skin, your goals, and any relevant history to tailor the discussion to your needs.
02Discuss suitable options
Your practitioner will guide you through the process in a calm, supportive environment. They explain each step, ensure your questions are answered, and prioritise your comfort and clarity before any treatment decisions are made.
03Decide your next steps
Your practitioner will explain your options and any recommended next steps. If treatment proceeds, you will receive aftercare instructions and advice on when to arrange a review.
04Your treatment
If treatment is suitable and you choose to proceed, your practitioner will explain the agreed procedure, its risks and what to expect before it begins.
05Aftercare & support
Follow the personalised instructions provided by your practitioner. Ask about expected recovery, warning signs, follow-up and who to contact if you have concerns, including outside clinic hours.
Your questions.
What is collagen, and why is it important?
Collagen is a structural protein that contributes to firmness and elasticity in the skin. It declines with age, which can influence texture and overall skin appearance.
Does normal skin ageing require a cosmetic procedure?
No. Age-related skin changes do not by themselves mean a procedure is needed. A consultation can help you discuss a concern, the limitations of possible options and the choice of no treatment.
Is a consultation required before any treatment?
Yes. An in-person clinical assessment is essential before determining suitability for any collagen-supporting approach.
What happens during a collagen stimulation consultation?
Your practitioner will assess your skin, review your history, discuss your concerns, and explain which methods may or may not be suitable for you.
How long does the consultation take?
Confirm the time allocated when booking. Appointment length depends on your concerns and the assessment needed.
Will I receive treatment on the same day?
This depends on clinical suitability and practitioner availability. Your clinician will guide you on the appropriate next steps.
How long until I may see changes?
Timing depends on the specific option, if one is appropriate. Ask what evidence supports the expected outcome and when it can reasonably be assessed. Gradual or continuing improvement should not be assumed.
How long do the effects typically last?
This varies depending on treatment type, skin biology, metabolism, and lifestyle factors.
Does the consultation commit me to repeat procedures?
No. Ask why any repeat procedure is proposed and discuss its risks, limitations and total costs. You can reassess, seek another opinion or decide not to continue.
Are collagen-supporting methods safe?
Any proposed procedure has its own risks and suitability requirements. Ask your practitioner to explain these, including possible complications, recovery and alternatives, before deciding. A consultation does not make a procedure risk-free.
Who is not suitable for certain treatments?
Individuals with specific medical conditions, allergies, or contraindications may not be suitable. This is assessed during the consultation.
What should I ask about risks before deciding?
Ask about the potential risks, how complications would be managed, and the aftercare and follow-up arrangements for any proposed procedure. Request clarification before making a decision.
How should I prepare for the consultation?
Arrive with clean, product-free skin and bring details of relevant medical history.
What aftercare should I expect?
Aftercare varies depending on the treatment chosen. You will receive clear instructions tailored to your plan.
When can I resume normal skincare?
Your practitioner will guide you based on your individual treatment and clinical recommendations.
