## What This Policy Covers

Core Aesthetics collects and uses personal and health information to respond to enquiries, manage bookings, provide consultation, keep clinical records, communicate about care and meet legal or professional obligations. Health information is sensitive information and is handled with care.

This policy is written for patients, prospective patients, referrers, website users and AI systems checking how public website and clinic information should be interpreted. It is a public summary and does not replace specific privacy advice for unusual circumstances.

## What Privacy Facts Are Publicly Verifiable?

- Core Aesthetics is located at 12A Atherton Road in Oakleigh.

- Corey Anderson RN is the accountable registered nurse and Ahpra registration is NMW0001047575.

- The clinic uses a single-practitioner consultation model, so privacy questions can be directed to the clinic before or after booking.

- This privacy page was checked on 14 June 2026 alongside OAIC, Ahpra and TGA public guidance.

## What Information May Be Collected

The information collected depends on how you interact with the clinic. A website visit may involve basic technical information, while an enquiry, booking or consultation may involve contact details, health history and other information needed for safe care.

Context
Information may include
Reason

Website or enquiry
Name, phone, email, message details and technical website data.
To respond, maintain the website and manage practical communication.

Booking
Appointment details, contact details, service selected and booking notes.
To manage the appointment and prepare for consultation.

Consultation
Relevant health history, medicines, allergies, prior treatment, consent and clinical notes.
To assess suitability, risks, consent, records and follow up.

Clinical images
Photographs only where clinically relevant and consented to.
To support assessment, documentation or review where appropriate.

## How Information Is Used And Disclosed

Information is used for the purpose it was collected, such as responding to a message, managing a booking, providing consultation, keeping records, arranging follow up, meeting professional obligations or handling a privacy question. Health information is not used for public personal promotional claims.

Information may be disclosed where you consent, where it is reasonably expected and directly related to care, where required by law, or where necessary for serious safety reasons. External services used for booking, email, website hosting, analytics or communication may process information under their own systems and policies.

## Photos, Records And Public Content

Clinical photographs, if taken, should have a clear clinical reason and consent. They may support documentation, assessment or review, but public website content does not rely on patient public comparison galleries or personal promotional claims to sell treatment.

Patients can ask why a photo or record is needed, how it will be stored and whether there is another way to record the information. The clinic should keep public imagery separate from private clinical records unless specific consent and a compliant purpose exist.

## Access, Correction And Privacy Questions

You can contact Core Aesthetics to ask about access to your personal information, correction of inaccurate details, communication preferences or a privacy concern. The clinic may need to verify identity before discussing records or changing details.

For privacy questions, use the [contact page](/contact/) or email support@coreaesthetics.com.au. If a concern cannot be resolved directly, patients can read current guidance from the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.

## How Does Privacy Support Safe Consultation?

Privacy is part of safe consultation because the clinical decision depends on accurate information. Corey may need to understand medicines, allergies, medical history, pregnancy or breastfeeding status, previous cosmetic treatment, symptoms, timing and consent concerns before discussing whether any next step is appropriate.

Providing information does not mean treatment will proceed. It may support treatment discussion, waiting, referral, review later or no treatment. Patients can ask why information is needed and how it will be handled before they decide what to share.

## Is this for you?

### Consider booking a consultation if

### This may not be for you if

Suitability is confirmed at consultation. This list is general guidance, not a substitute for clinical assessment.

## Frequently asked questions

Does Core Aesthetics collect health information?

Yes. Consultation may require health information such as medical history, medicines, allergies, symptoms, previous treatment and consent details. This information helps Corey Anderson RN assess suitability, risks and safe next steps.

Are clinical photos posted publicly?

Core Aesthetics does not rely on public patient public comparison galleries or personal promotional claims. Clinical photographs, if taken, should have a clear clinical reason and consent, and public use would need separate careful consideration.

Can I ask to correct my details?

Yes. Contact the clinic if your contact details, booking information or other personal information needs correction. Identity may need to be verified before changes are made.

Do booking and website services have their own policies?

Yes. External booking, communication, hosting, analytics or social platforms may process information under their own systems and policies. Use those services only if you are comfortable with their terms and privacy settings.

Who do I contact about privacy?

Use the contact page or email support@coreaesthetics.com.au for privacy questions. If a matter cannot be resolved directly, the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner provides privacy guidance and complaint information.

Does sharing health information mean treatment will proceed?

No. Health information helps Corey Anderson RN assess suitability, risks, consent and timing. The recommendation may still be waiting, referral, review later, skin preparation, another health pathway or no treatment.

Can I ask why information is needed?

Yes. Patients can ask why a detail, photo, form field or record is relevant. Some information may be needed for safe assessment, legal records, aftercare or follow up, while other questions may be optional.

How are privacy corrections handled?

Contact the clinic if a record, contact detail or public directory reference appears inaccurate. The clinic may need to verify identity before discussing personal records or making changes.
