Botulinum Toxin (Botox) Procedures
Individual assessment of facial expression and anatomy for forehead, frown and eye-area lines.
Forehead, frown and eye-area lines
Botulinum toxin temporarily reduces activity in selected muscles to soften the appearance of lines that become more visible with expression. The forehead, frown area and eye area are assessed together, with attention to individual facial expression.
Excessive sweating assessment
Underarm and hand sweating first require an assessment of the possible cause. Botulinum toxin may be discussed as an option for suitable individuals. The proposed area, possible benefits and risks are considered at the consultation.
Masseter and teeth-clenching concerns
Teeth clenching calls for consideration of dental health, jaw joints and chewing muscles. Suitability for a masseter procedure depends on medical assessment and may require dental assessment as part of the plan.
Chronic migraine
Migraine is a neurological condition requiring diagnosis and follow-up. Botulinum toxin is not suitable for every headache. Options are discussed following an appropriate assessment and any necessary specialist referral.
Before and after a procedure
Discuss your medical history, medicines and previous procedures with your physician. Redness, bruising, tenderness or temporary muscle weakness can occur. Aftercare and review are planned individually; effects and duration are not guaranteed.

Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers
Assessment of lip definition, facial volume and contour needs using hyaluronic acid filler options.
Lip fillers
Lip assessment considers definition, upper-to-lower lip proportions, symmetry and the whole face, as well as volume. The hyaluronic acid product and proposed amount are selected individually following a consultation.
Facial volume and contour
Volume concerns in the cheeks, chin and selected facial areas are assessed with attention to anatomy. Planning considers facial proportions and natural expression, rather than viewing a single feature in isolation.
Lines and individual concerns
Lines around the mouth and areas of facial hollowing can have different causes. Fillers are not a solution for every line or skin concern. Areas, product characteristics and alternatives are discussed with the physician.
Information and follow-up
Filler injection is a medical procedure. Swelling, tenderness and bruising can occur; uncommon but serious complications include infection and blood-vessel blockage. Previous fillers, allergies and medical history are reviewed. Follow-up and aftercare are explained at the consultation.

Skin and Pigmentation Procedures
A physician-led approach to skin texture, hydration needs and uneven tone, guided by your skin type.
Skin and pigmentation assessment
The cause and duration of pigmentation, sun exposure and skin type influence the choice of approach. New, changing or suspicious lesions require medical assessment before an aesthetic procedure. The same method is not appropriate for every pigmentation concern.
Mesotherapy and skin quality
Skin quality and hydration needs can be assessed when discussing mesotherapy options. The product, area and proposed sessions are considered individually. A training or product name does not imply that everyone will obtain the same outcome.
Peels and skin renewal
Peeling options aimed at surface renewal may be considered for suitable individuals. The product, intensity and plan depend on skin characteristics. Professional assessment matters because sensitivity and changes in pigmentation can occur.
Daily care and review
Sun protection and care appropriate to the skin barrier form part of the plan. Procedures do not permanently remove every pigmentation concern. Skin response and needs are reassessed during follow-up, with dermatology referral when appropriate.

Biostimulation and Thread Procedures
A discussion of options, expectations and suitability for skin quality and facial contour concerns.
What is biostimulation?
Biostimulation is a broad term for different products and approaches aimed at skin quality and supporting tissues. Selection depends on skin and tissue characteristics, medical history and expectations. Products and procedures do not all work in the same way.
Thread procedures
Assessment considers facial contours, skin thickness and tissue laxity together. The possibilities and limitations are explained at the consultation. Thread procedures are not equivalent to a surgical facelift and may not suit every individual.
Individual planning
Relevant options are considered according to individual needs. A decision follows a realistic discussion of expectations, alternatives and informed consent.
Possible effects and review
Bruising, swelling, tenderness, asymmetry or surface irregularities can occur. Infection and visible or palpable threads are also risks to discuss. Aftercare and review are planned according to the selected method.
