Consultation
A medical consultation first: your concerns and suitability are assessed, and every option is explained honestly.
About the consultation
Expression lines on the forehead, between the brows and around the eyes are among the most common reasons people get in touch. This appointment is a medical consultation: your concerns, skin and medical history are assessed, and you receive honest advice about whether any treatment is appropriate.
Some options for expression lines involve prescription-only medicines. These can only be considered after a face-to-face assessment by a prescriber, and they cannot be booked directly. Other options, such as skin boosters, polynucleotides or skincare advice, may be discussed where they suit you better.
Your full medical history is reviewed at consultation, so this list is a guide only.
Step by step
If a prescription-only medicine is considered appropriate, it can only be prescribed after this face-to-face assessment by the prescribing clinician. You will have the information and time you need to consider the risks and alternatives, including no treatment, before giving written consent. If you need longer, treatment is put back, and you can always decide not to go ahead.
You will leave with clear, honest advice, including guide prices where relevant. There is no obligation to go ahead. If you decide on a treatment, aftercare advice and follow-up are part of the plan.
If your vision changes after a facial injectable treatment, call 999 or go to A&E straight away and tell them what treatment you have recently had. Do not wait for a reply from the clinic. If you have severe or increasing pain, or the skin turns pale, dusky or blotchy, contact the clinic immediately, or get urgent medical help if you cannot reach us.
