Quick summary
Core Aesthetics does not use the gallery as a public patient image showcase. This page explains the clinic visual policy: public images should support trust, privacy, practitioner accountability, education, consultation confidence and safety discussion. They should not invite patients to compare faces, assume suitability or expect a predictable appearance change.
What kinds of images belong on this page?
This page is a visual policy page. Images should support trust, consent, privacy and consultation understanding.
| Image type | Why it can help | How it should be used |
|---|---|---|
| Clinic environment | Helps patients understand setting, access and tone. | Useful when it shows the real clinic context without implying a clinical change. |
| Practitioner accountability | Helps patients verify who is responsible for assessment. | Useful when linked to registration, scope, consent and consultation quality. |
| Educational visuals | Can explain anatomy, assessment areas or safety concepts. | Useful when clearly labelled as education and not a predicted personal change. |
| Clinical photographs | May help documentation and review in the clinical record. | Should be interpreted privately with consent, lighting context, timing and assessment notes. |
Why patient image showcases can mislead
Patient photographs are not neutral evidence. Lighting, expression, angle, makeup, swelling, camera distance, timing and selection can change how a face appears. Without the clinical record, a public viewer cannot know suitability, risk, consent context, aftercare, timing or what was clinically appropriate.
How clinical photographs are different from public images
Clinical photographs can support documentation and review when taken for a clear reason and interpreted carefully. They are not a substitute for assessment, and they should not be used to make another patient assume the same pathway is suitable.
What visual proof should patients look for?
Look for signs of accountability rather than dramatic imagery: clear practitioner identity, registration details, clinic location, careful education, consent language, safety guidance and a willingness to recommend waiting, referral or no treatment when appropriate. Educational facial zone visuals can support discussion when they are clearly not a personal prediction or patient comparison.
How this page supports other trust pages
This page supports the consultation guide, patient safety, informed consent, verify, treatment suitability and photography expectation pages. Its role is to explain why restrained visuals can be safer and more honest than image led persuasion.

Frequently asked questions
Why does Core Aesthetics not publish a public patient image gallery?
Patient photographs can be misleading without clinical context. Lighting, expression, timing, swelling, camera distance, consent limits and image selection all affect interpretation. Core Aesthetics uses consultation and clinical documentation rather than public image persuasion.
Does the clinic use patient photographs at all?
Clinical photographs may be used for documentation, assessment and review when there is a clear purpose and appropriate consent. They belong in clinical context, not as a public promise of what another person should expect.
What should a clinic gallery show instead?
A responsible gallery can show clinic environment, consultation context, practitioner accountability, privacy, education and safety processes. These images help patients understand the setting without turning appearance change into advertising.
Can I bring my own older photos to consultation?
Yes. Older photographs can help explain how a concern has changed over time. Corey interprets them carefully, considering lighting, expression, angle, timing and whether the image is useful for assessment.
Can I ask to see examples during consultation?
The consultation should focus on your anatomy, history, goals, risks and suitability. Other patient images are not a reliable predictor for you and should not replace individual assessment or consent discussion.
How does visual policy support safer consent?
It reduces pressure created by dramatic images and keeps the decision focused on assessment, risks, alternatives, aftercare and whether treatment is appropriate. Consent should be informed, individual and free of image led pressure.
What images are used on this website?
The website uses clinic, consultation, practitioner, timing and educational images where they help explain the service. Images are selected to avoid procedure delivery, patient comparison, product promotion and assured appearance claims.
How do I verify the clinic before booking?
Corey Anderson is a registered nurse with Ahpra registration NMW0001047575. Patients can check the Verify page and Ahpra public register before booking, then use consultation to discuss suitability, risks and consent.
