Lip consultations in Oakleigh

Your appointment begins with what you have noticed. Corey Anderson RN reviews your health history and previous care, then assesses the lips at rest and in movement. Relevant options, limits, risks, recovery, alternatives and total cost are discussed before you decide. Check Square for the current duration of the appointment you select. One initial general consultation is complimentary per person.

Consultation comes first. If treatment is suitable and appropriate on the day, this can be discussed with Corey during your appointment. Booking does not guarantee treatment, and you can take time to decide.

You can describe your concern without knowing an anatomy or treatment term. Common starting points include the outline of your lips, the balance between the upper and lower lip, differences between sides, or how the upper lip looks when you smile.

Your consultation is with Corey Anderson, Registered Nurse, Ahpra registration NMW0001047575. Verify practitioner and clinic details or read about Core Aesthetics before deciding where to book.

No one can promise how your lips will look after treatment. Be specific about what would feel excessive to you, such as extra projection, a prominent border or losing your familiar proportions. Agreeing on those limits matters before proceeding. If your goal cannot be achieved within them, choosing no treatment is a valid outcome.

Mention previous lip care, medicines, allergies, cold sores, recent dental work and pregnancy or breastfeeding. Bring dates and any records from earlier lip care when available. These details can change which care is appropriate and when. If you have an active cold sore or new symptoms, contact the clinic before your appointment. Sudden severe pain, unusual colour or rapidly worsening symptoms need urgent medical assessment rather than a routine cosmetic booking.

Cosmetic procedures carry risks, including potentially serious complications. Suitability, recovery and the risks of any proposed care are explained before you decide. Results vary.

What if closing your lips takes effort?

Tell Corey if your lips meet comfortably at rest or if your chin appears to tighten when you gently close them. A gap or visible effort does not establish missing volume or identify a cosmetic treatment. Persistent blocked breathing, troublesome dry mouth, dental pain or a new bite change needs appropriate medical or dental assessment first. Healthdirect explains when to seek advice about dry mouth.

Dryness, cracking or stinging is a surface concern, not proof that your lips need more fullness. Ask about persistent irritation before considering cosmetic care. The American Academy of Dermatology lip-care guide explains practical care for chapped lips.

Ahpra explains the assessment, consent and risk discussion expected before non-surgical cosmetic care. The dry-mouth and chapped-lip sources below support the separate surface and oral-health advice, not a recommendation for a cosmetic procedure.

A consultation alone needs no recovery time. If you proceed with treatment, settling time depends on the procedure and your response. Early swelling can temporarily change size and symmetry, so the first appearance may not be the settled result. Before proceeding, you should know the expected recovery period, review timing and symptoms that need prompt attention.

The two week review is an appointment arrangement, not a guarantee that recovery is complete. Tell Corey your work, travel or event dates before deciding. Read the lip aftercare guide alongside the written instructions for any care you receive, and ask about the limits of correction before proceeding.

One initial general consultation is complimentary per person. Check the selected Square appointment for its current duration and availability. If care is considered after assessment, the full proposed cost is explained before you agree. Read the consultation and pricing information.

The routine review is two weeks after treatment and is free to attend. Fees apply if additional treatment is required. Discuss aftercare, who to contact and any possible further costs before proceeding; do not wait for a routine review if you have concerning symptoms.
