Booking

Book a consultation

Start with a doctor-led assessment of your medical history, skin and goals, followed by clear advice about what is realistic and appropriate.

Why consultation comes first

Assessment before anything is planned

Aesthetic medicine is medicine. The right option depends on your anatomy, medical history, medication, skin and priorities, not on a photograph or trend. Your consultation establishes what is suitable and gives you the information you need to decide without pressure.

What you get from it

1

A medical assessment

Relevant history, medication, previous treatment and the area you want to discuss are reviewed before a plan is considered.

2

Realistic options

Suitable options, limitations, likely course and alternatives are explained in plain language.

3

A clear next step

You leave with an individual recommendation, guide pricing and time to decide whether you want to proceed.

Ask the clinic to arrange it

If you are unsure what to book, need accessibility help or cannot find a suitable time, contact the clinic by telephone, WhatsApp or the contact form.

Consultation or a specific treatment

Most new patients begin with a consultation because suitability must be assessed before treatment planning. Returning patients who have already been assessed can choose the relevant treatment or review in the booking system.

Common questions

Consultation questions

What happens during an aesthetics consultation?

Your appointment includes a discussion of your concerns and goals, a review of relevant medical history and previous treatments, and an assessment of the areas you would like to discuss. The clinician will explain suitable options, realistic limitations, likely next steps and pricing before you decide whether to proceed.

Do I need to know which treatment I want before I book?

No. You can book a consultation without choosing a specific procedure. The purpose of the appointment is to understand your priorities, assess suitability and compare appropriate options rather than assume a treatment in advance.

Am I obliged to book a treatment after the consultation?

No. A consultation is an opportunity to receive an assessment, ask questions and consider the proposed plan. You can take time to reflect and book treatment later if you decide it is right for you.

How long does an aesthetics consultation take?

The consultation normally takes around 30 to 45 minutes. The exact length can vary depending on the number of concerns you want to discuss, your medical and treatment history, and the complexity of the proposed plan.

How should I prepare for my consultation?

Bring details of relevant medications, supplements and previous aesthetic treatments if you have them. Arriving without heavy foundation or concealer can make a skin assessment easier, but it is not essential. It can also help to note the questions and priorities you want to cover.

Can I have treatment on the same day?

Same-day treatment may be possible when the correct appointment time has been reserved and the clinician confirms that it is suitable. It is never assumed. If more time, preparation or reflection is appropriate, treatment can be booked for a later appointment.

Book a consultation

Start with an assessment

Bring the thing you have noticed. You will be assessed by a doctor, told plainly what is realistic and given a plan only if one is warranted.
