What to Expect
Thorough Skin Assessment
The clinician will assess your skin’s condition, type, and any concerns you mention (e.g. acne, generalised pigmentation, redness, dryness, aging).
Detailed Medical & Lifestyle History
Expect questions about:
- Medical conditions or medications
- Lifestyle factors
- Current skincare routine
- Past skin treatments (lasers, peels, injectables, etc.)
Discussion of Concerns & Goals
- They will ask what you’d like to improve— e.g. texture, acne, scarring, ageing skin, etc.
- You’ll be guided to set short-term and long-term realistic goals.
Tailored Skincare Plan
Expect a personalised treatment plan which may include;
- In-clinic treatments (e.g. chemical peels, laser treatment, LED, microneedling)
- At-home skincare products
- General lifestyle advice
Treatment Options and Costs
Transparent discussion around;
- Number of sessions
- Treatment intervals
- Downtime or side effects
- Pricing
Referral if Necessary
If your concerns are beyond the scope of cosmetic practice (e.g. suspected skin cancer, chronic inflammatory conditions), they may suggest you see a dermatologist or GP as a separate visit.
What Not to Expect
Instant Fixes or Overpromising Results
- Our clinicians avoid unrealistic promises like “complete removal” of scars, lines, or pigmentation.
- Skin improvements often take months to years to achieve with consistent care.
Diagnosis of Medical Skin Conditions
Cosmetic nurses and dermal clinicians can identify concerns, but only dermatologists or doctors can diagnose skin diseases or specific spots of concern or prescribe certain medications.
Aggressive Treatments Without Explanation
You should never feel rushed into a treatment. Expect thorough explanations about what a treatment involves, risks, and aftercare before anything begins.
A Hard Sell
While product or treatment recommendations are common, our clinician’s won’t pressure you into buying expensive skincare or unnecessary treatments.
