Cosmetic Medicine Sunshine Coast

Facial lines may appear with expression, remain visible when the face is at rest, or change over time as the skin ages. A consultation gives you the opportunity to discuss what you have noticed and how it affects you.

What we assess

We consider your skin, facial movement, symmetry, medical history and the areas that concern you. We also look at how those areas relate to the rest of your face and discuss what may realistically be achieved.

Your options

Different types of lines call for different considerations. Following assessment, we will explain any suitable options, their limitations, potential risks and alternatives. Treatment is recommended only where appropriate to your circumstances and goals.

Preparation and follow-up

You do not need to select a treatment before attending. Please tell us about your medicines, medical conditions, previous cosmetic procedures and any recent changes to your health. If you choose to proceed with a recommended procedure, you will receive specific preparation, aftercare and follow-up information.

Can treatment happen on the same day?

For some suitable adults, it can. This depends on the assessment, any required prescribing, clinician availability and your informed consent. You are equally welcome to take time to consider your options.

You may wish to discuss changes in your cheeks, lower face, facial proportions or symmetry. These concerns can reflect natural anatomy, ageing, weight changes or a combination of factors.

What we assess

We consider your facial features as a whole, including their proportions, skin and underlying structure. We will discuss what has changed, what concerns you and the degree of change you hope to achieve.

Your options

We will explain whether any option is suitable, what it could reasonably address, its limitations and potential risks. A concern about contour does not automatically mean that adding volume is the right approach. Alternatives and the option of no treatment are part of the discussion.

Preparation and follow-up

Please tell us about previous facial procedures, current medicines, medical conditions and any recent illness or upcoming events that could affect timing. If treatment is appropriate and you decide to proceed, we will provide individual preparation and aftercare advice.

Can treatment happen on the same day?

It may be possible for a suitable adult once all necessary assessments and consent have been completed, provided the appropriate clinicians are available. Sometimes a further appointment is the better choice.

A consultation can help you explore concerns about lip shape, fullness, definition, proportions or symmetry. Your goals may relate to a change you have noticed over time or a feature you have always wanted to discuss.

What we assess

We consider your lips in relation to your other facial features, as well as your medical history, skin and oral health, and any previous procedures. We will discuss your goals and factors that could affect suitability or timing.

Your options

Any recommendation is based on your individual anatomy and preferences. We will discuss realistic possibilities, limitations, risks, recovery considerations and alternatives without assuming that increased volume is your goal.

Preparation and follow-up

Please tell us about previous procedures, cold sores, medicines, recent illness and any upcoming dental work or significant events. If you decide to proceed with a recommended procedure, you will receive tailored preparation and aftercare instructions and information about follow-up.

Can treatment happen on the same day?

For some suitable adults, yes, following a complete assessment and informed consent. Where more time or further assessment would be helpful, we will plan a separate appointment.
