ABOUT THE TOPIC
What is it?
Age-related skin changes may include changes in texture, fine lines and skin hydration. The suitability of any intervention depends on an individual assessment and the clinic's actual available facilities.
POTENTIAL AREAS OF DISCUSSION
What concerns may bring this up?
Questions about fine lines, texture or skincare as skin changes over time.
There is no single procedure or product that is appropriate for every skin type or person.
POSSIBLE ROLE
What may be discussed during consultation?
Discussion of daily care, sun protection and procedure suitability if appropriate.
If an intervention is considered, the clinician should explain the expected role, evidence, alternatives, aftercare and costs before consent.
SAFETY & SUITABILITY
Limitations and risks
No treatment stops ageing and responses differ from person to person.
Skin type, medicines, allergies, previous procedures, pregnancy status where relevant and health history may affect which options are suitable.
FREQUENT QUESTIONS
What should I ask?
Is this suitable for every skin or hair type?
No. Clinical suitability depends on the actual concern, assessment, medical history and the intervention proposed.
Will one session give a permanent result?
No result or number of sessions can be guaranteed. The team should explain realistic expectations and limitations for your circumstances.
