Corey Anderson RN · Oakleigh, Melbourne · Adults 18 and over
What your wrinkle consultation includes
You explain what you notice and when you see it. Corey reviews relevant health and previous-care information, observes the area at rest and during ordinary expression if you are comfortable, then explains what may or may not be suitable, realistic limits, risks, recovery considerations and private costs.
You do not need to know a treatment name. Mention what you would like to understand and any expressions or features you want to preserve. The appointment can be for information only.
Which facial lines can you discuss?
You can discuss more than one area at the same appointment. These guides explain the concerns; they do not establish that treatment is suitable.
Who you will see
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.
Suitability, risks and realistic limits
Corey assesses line location, movement strength, resting creases, brow position, eyelid and cheek context, skin quality, natural asymmetry and previous care. He also reviews health history, medicines, allergies, expectations, important dates and review access.
Corey uses those details when explaining temporary marks, swelling, tenderness, bruising, asymmetry, altered movement, dissatisfaction and uncommon complications relevant to any option considered. The discussion also makes clear that symmetry, a fixed duration and removal of every resting crease cannot be promised.
You should understand the alternatives, including waiting, another opinion or no cosmetic treatment. Use these four questions before agreeing.
Consultation cost and follow-up
Allow around 30 minutes for your initial consultation. There is no charge for this appointment. If treatment is being considered, the full 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.
If you have had previous care
Bring approximate dates, areas, the treating clinic and any available records. Explain how movement felt afterward, what settled as expected and whether heaviness, asymmetry, discomfort or another change occurred.
Corey can assess what is visible now and identify which past detail genuinely matters. If something is unknown, label it accurately rather than guessing. The current baseline remains valuable even when earlier records are incomplete.

Four Ways I Ask You To Describe A Wrinkle Concern
I Start With Four Practical Clues
Corey Anderson RN: Point to the line. Show me the ordinary expression that brings it out. Tell me where in daily life you notice it. Name the movement you want to keep. Those four clues distinguish a movement led line from a crease that stays at rest, and both of those from a feature that lighting is exaggerating. If the four answers don’t agree with each other, I document the difference rather than picking whichever photograph or description is easiest to explain.
Screens Need Real Life Context
Corey Anderson RN: Phone lenses, screen lighting, a paused expression and an unfamiliar angle can all make a line look deeper or less even than it does face to face. So I ask whether you see the concern in the mirror, in conversation and in ordinary photographs, then compare rest with movement. This isn’t me dismissing what you’ve seen online. It’s how I work out whether the line is a change I can assess consistently. If it turns out to be mainly image dependent, observation or skin focused advice may be more useful.
Preservation Sets A Boundary For My Advice
Corey Anderson RN: Do you want to keep an animated brow? A familiar smile? The way you look when you’re concentrating? A longstanding asymmetry? Those preferences define the limits of a responsible discussion, so I ask early. A resting crease may also reflect skin quality and may not follow movement alone. I’ll explain the relevant risks and the realistic limits without promising a fixed expression or a complete change. If what you’re asking for conflicts with natural movement, health context or informed consent, I may recommend more time, another pathway, or no cosmetic treatment.
Before you book
Can treatment be discussed at the first appointment?
Yes. When individual assessment, readiness and informed consent support proceeding, suitable care on the day can be discussed with Corey. Timing also considers previous care, health history, important events, possible short term effects and realistic review access. You can use the appointment for explanation and decide later.
When should I seek medical care instead?
A new or sudden facial weakness, numbness, trouble speaking, severe headache, vision change or another acute symptom needs urgent medical assessment. A cosmetic consultation does not diagnose these concerns.
