Question 1

A Personalised Assessment

Accepted Answer

Ellen's approach is centred on your individual anatomy rather than trends or predetermined proportions.During a facial assessment she considers your natural features, symmetry, profile, facial movement, skin quality and the relationship between different areas of your face.Your own preferences and concerns are equally important.

Question 2

Preserving Individuality

Accepted Answer

Cosmetic care should not be about making every patient look the same.Ellen's approach prioritises thoughtful treatment planning and respect for the features that make each face individual.

Question 3

When Should You Consider a Consultation?

Accepted Answer

You may benefit from an assessment if you have noticed changes in your facial proportions over time, have a specific feature you would like professionally assessed, or would simply like a better understanding of the options available to you.A consultation does not commit you to treatment.

Question 4

Why the Face Can Look Different Over Time

Accepted Answer

Facial ageing is complex and does not occur in one area alone.Changes can occur gradually across the skin, soft tissue and underlying facial structures, which may alter the way light, shadows, contours and proportions appear across the face.Some people notice changes around the cheeks, temples, lower face or profile, while others simply feel that their face looks different without being able to identify one particular area.

Question 5

Facial Change Is Individual

Accepted Answer

There is no single pattern of facial ageing.Genetics, anatomy, lifestyle, skin quality and natural changes over time can all contribute to differences in facial appearance.For this reason, Ellen's approach starts with assessment rather than assuming that one particular feature requires treatment.

Question 6

Looking at the Face as a Whole

Accepted Answer

A concern in one area may be influenced by proportions elsewhere in the face.During your consultation, Ellen considers facial structure, symmetry, proportion, profile and the relationship between different facial regions.This full-face assessment helps provide context before any management options are discussed.

Question 7

Personalised Management

Accepted Answer

Not every visible change requires treatment.Following assessment, Ellen will discuss whether any management is appropriate and provide information relevant to your individual circumstances.Where prescription-only medicines may form part of an appropriate management option, specific information can be discussed privately following clinical assessment.
