Forehead consultations for Glen Huntly visitors
A forehead consultation can help you understand lines that appear with expression, creases that remain at rest and whether skincare or other care fits your concern. Core Aesthetics sees Glen Huntly visitors at 12A Atherton Road, Oakleigh, inside BeautyTHEQUE. The initial consultation is free and usually takes 30 minutes; it does not commit you to treatment.
Why are some forehead lines visible even when I relax?
Repeated facial movement can leave grooves as skin loses elasticity. Ageing and sun exposure also affect the skin, so lines at rest are not simply a sign that you are raising your eyebrows too much. Mayo Clinic explains how these factors contribute.
The assessment looks at your forehead at rest and during normal expression. Tell the practitioner whether you are concerned about horizontal forehead lines, the lines between your eyebrows, or both. You do not need to practise facial tests or work out the cause before attending.
Can I start with skincare instead?
Yes. A moisturiser can help dry or flaky skin, and sun protection helps limit further UV-related skin ageing. Some skincare ingredients can improve fine lines, but skincare should not be presented as a reliable way to erase an established crease. DermNet describes the role and limits of skincare.
Bring the products you use, or photographs of their labels, if your routine is part of the question. Explain any irritation and what you have already tried. You can leave the appointment with advice and decide later whether to consider a procedure.
What if I want softer lines but still want expression?
Say that clearly at the start. The consultation should relate any proposed change to the expression and brow appearance you want to keep, as well as the line you would like to soften. Complete smoothness is not a necessary goal, and an exact appearance cannot be guaranteed.
If a procedure is proposed, discuss recovery before choosing a date. Bruising, swelling, headache and unwanted eyelid droop are among the possible risks of some forehead procedures. Better Health Channel outlines these risks. Mention any previous unwanted effect and any event or travel that could make recovery difficult.
How do consultation, treatment and review charges work?
The free initial appointment is with Corey Anderson, Registered Nurse, Ahpra NMW0001047575. Any proposed treatment is charged separately, with itemised costs explained before agreement. Treatment may be possible after the consultation when suitable, with required clinical arrangements, informed consent and agreed costs in place. Taking more time to decide is also an option.
A review is usually around two weeks and is free to attend; additional treatment is charged. Contact the clinic earlier if you have a concern after care. Amex, Mastercard, Visa and cash are accepted without a surcharge. See consultation and payment information and practitioner verification.

Questions you may still have
Are forehead lines the same as frown lines?
Forehead lines usually means horizontal lines above the brows; frown lines usually means the vertical lines between them. Both can be discussed at the same consultation, without an obligation to have care for both areas.
Do I need to choose a treatment when I book?
No. Book a consultation for the concern you want to discuss. Assessment and advice come before a decision about treatment, and you can ask about skincare or leaving the lines untreated.
Should I bring records from another clinic?
Bring any records you have, especially dates, treated areas and details of an unwanted effect. If information is missing, say so; the practitioner can explain whether it needs to be obtained before further care.
