Lip shape, movement and proportion · Oakleigh
Men’s lip consultations in Melbourne
You can book a lip consultation at Core Aesthetics to discuss shape, unevenness, the upper lip when smiling or concerns after previous cosmetic care. The appointment considers your lips in the context of your face and the changes you do or do not want. Meet Corey Anderson RN at our Oakleigh clinic to understand suitable options, their limits, risks and costs before deciding.
What happens at your lip consultation
Allow around 30 minutes for the initial consultation, which is at no charge. Describe the feature you notice and what you want to understand. You do not need a procedure selected or a fixed lip size in mind.
The assessment considers shape at rest, smile movement, the relationship between the upper and lower lip, surrounding facial features, health history and previous care. Bring medicines and allergy information, any previous treatment records and relevant dental concerns. The discussion can identify a need for another assessment or no cosmetic treatment.
Suitable options, risks, alternatives, recovery and costs are explained before consent. Same day treatment may be discussed when individual assessment and clinical arrangements support it; booking does not guarantee treatment.
Describe the feature you want assessed
| What you notice | What to discuss |
|---|---|
| A less visible upper lip | Whether you notice it at rest, while smiling or in both situations. |
| A difference between sides | Whether it is longstanding, appears with movement or followed previous care. |
| Shape or outline | Which part you mean and how facial hair affects what you can see. |
| Profile or proportion | How the lip concern relates to your lower face, chin and dental context. |
These are assessment questions, not a treatment menu. If you are still working out what looks thin or small to you, the thin lips in men guide explains visible lip height, mouth width and profile separately. The main lip consultation page describes the wider service.
Explain what a noticeable change would mean to you
Tell the practitioner if you are concerned about losing your familiar outline, changing your smile or having a change that others notice. There is no single masculine lip shape you need to match. Your preferences should be heard without being treated as a guarantee that a particular appearance is achievable.
No result or invisible recovery can be promised. If a procedure is proposed, ask how swelling or other effects could affect work, photographs, public speaking, sport or travel. Discuss the actual dates and obtain instructions for the agreed plan rather than relying on a universal timetable.
If you have had lip treatment before
Bring the date, treating clinic and any records you have. Explain what settled as expected and what feels different now, such as unevenness, firmness or a change at the border. Tell the practitioner when you first noticed it.
Adding more is not automatically the answer. Assessment may lead to records review, waiting, review by the original practitioner or other clinical input. Read about assessment of previous cosmetic care if that is your main reason for attending.
Know the limits and risks before agreeing
Ask what the proposed option could address, what would remain unchanged, common effects, less common serious complications and how your own health changes the risk. Make sure aftercare, contact arrangements and possible further costs are clear.
Waiting, seeking another opinion and having no cosmetic treatment are valid choices. An unclear previous treatment history, unresolved swelling, dental issues, pressure to meet an event date or difficulty attending review may change the advice. Use the four informed-decision questions during the discussion.
Fees and review appointments
The initial consultation is at no charge and without obligation. Any proposed treatment cost is explained separately before you decide. The lip cost and quote guide helps you check the total, inclusions and possible additional fees.
Reviews are offered two weeks after treatment and are free to attend. Additional treatment, if required, incurs a fee. Read the clinic payment and cancellation policies. Do not wait for a routine review if you have concerning symptoms.

Before you decide
Can I attend if I am not sure I want a lip change?
Yes. Use the consultation to ask questions and understand what the assessment can or cannot clarify. You can take time, ask for another opinion or decide that you do not want cosmetic treatment. Booking is not a commitment to proceed.
Can I discuss privacy before an appointment?
Yes. Contact the clinic about how records and clinical photographs are handled and tell it your preferred contact method. Raise concerns about work or personal privacy during the consultation too, without assuming that any procedure or its recovery will be unnoticeable.
