Cosmetic Consultation (Doctor or Nurse)

Discuss your aesthetic goals with an experienced doctor or nurse, receiving a medically led consultation and tailored treatment plan for safe, natural-looking cosmetic outcomes.

A Cosmetic Consultation with an Appearance Medicine Doctor or Nurse at Skin Institute is the first step if you’re considering injectable treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, skin boosters, or other medical cosmetic procedures.

Our medically trained professionals take the time to understand your goals, assess your facial anatomy, and recommend safe, evidence-based treatments tailored to you.

What is a Cosmetic Consultation with an Appearance Medicine Doctor or Nurse?

This consultation is a medical assessment focused on injectable and prescription-only cosmetic treatments.

It involves a detailed facial analysis, discussion of concerns, and education around treatment options, outcomes, and risks.

No treatment is rushed; the priority is safety, suitability, and natural-looking results.
