Nurse Ellen takes a personalised, full-face approach, considering facial anatomy, skin quality and your individual concerns. Consultations prioritise education, careful assessment and conservative treatment planning.

Question 2

Are there risks or side effects?

Accepted Answer

All cosmetic procedures carry potential risks and side effects. These vary depending on the procedure and may include temporary swelling, redness, tenderness or bruising, as well as less common complications. Your medical history, suitability, expected outcomes and individual risks will be discussed during your consultation.

Question 3

How long do results from dermal treatments last?

Accepted Answer

Results and maintenance requirements vary depending on the procedure recommended, the area addressed and individual factors. Expected outcomes and appropriate review timeframes will be discussed during your private consultation.

Question 4

What should I expect during my first consultation?

Accepted Answer

Your first consultation is an opportunity to discuss your concerns, goals and medical history. Nurse Ellen will assess your facial structure, skin quality and overall suitability for treatment. Recommended options, potential risks and expected outcomes will be discussed to ensure you feel informed and comfortable before proceeding.

Question 5

Will I need downtime?

Accepted Answer

Recovery varies between procedures and individuals. Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness or bruising may occur. You will receive procedure-specific aftercare information and guidance about returning to normal activities.

Question 6

Do treatments hurt?

Accepted Answer

Most aesthetic treatments involve minimal discomfort. Many treatments use products containing local anaesthetic and additional measures such as topical numbing cream or gentle techniques may be used to enhance comfort. Individual experiences can vary, but treatments are generally well tolerated.

Question 7

How far in advance should I book treatments before an event?

Accepted Answer

It is generally recommended to allow 2–4 weeks before an important event. This allows time for treatments to settle and for any temporary swelling or bruising to resolve. For first-time patients, booking slightly earlier may be beneficial.

Question 8

Can I combine different treatments during one visit?

Accepted Answer

In some cases, different treatments may be combined within a single appointment depending on individual goals and suitability. This will be assessed during your consultation to ensure a safe and personalised treatment plan.

Question 9

What areas of the face can be treated with Cosmetic Aesthetic Treatments?

Accepted Answer

Nurse Ellen provides advanced aesthetic treatments across a wide range of facial areas, taking a comprehensive full-face approach to treatment. Rather than focusing on a single area in isolation, each treatment plan considers the face as a whole to restore balance, proportion and natural harmony. Treatments may include wrinkle treatments for preventative and corrective care, volume enhancement and advanced facial contouring to restore structure and definition, as well as skin rejuvenation therapies such as skin boosters, Rejuran, PRP and PDO threads. Her approach is grounded in personalised treatment planning and patient education, ensuring every patient receives safe, tailored care with a focus on subtle, natural-looking results.

Question 10

What is the cost?

Accepted Answer

The cost of treatment can vary depending on the type of treatment performed, the areas treated and the individual treatment plan required. Because every face and treatment goal is different, pricing is discussed during your consultation once suitability has been assessed and recommendations have been made.

Question 11

Not sure what appointment to choose?
