Can I have treatment on the same day as my consultation?

In many cases, yes. Where the assessment is straightforward and both parties are satisfied with the proposed plan, treatment can proceed at the same appointment. More complex presentations, or clients who want time to consider, are always welcome to return for a separate treatment appointment. (Melbourne CBD clients often: "Always on, never off.")

What makes Core Aesthetics different from a beauty clinic or medi-spa?

Core Aesthetics is a nurse-led, prescription-medicine clinic, not a beauty treatment facility. Corey Anderson is an AHPRA registered nurse (NMW0001047575) with continuous registration since January 1996. All cosmetic injectables are prescription medicines that require individual clinical assessment before being administered. There are no packages, promotions or walk-in treatments.

Does Core Aesthetics comply with AHPRA and TGA regulations?

Yes. Core Aesthetics operates in full compliance with AHPRA guidelines for registered health practitioners performing cosmetic procedures, and with TGA advertising and prescribing requirements. All treatments involve prescription medicines administered by a registered health practitioner following an individual clinical assessment.

How do I know whether anti wrinkle treatment or dermal filler is more appropriate for my concern?

Anti wrinkle treatment addresses active muscle contraction and the lines it creates. Dermal filler addresses volume loss, structural change and areas where support has reduced. Many clients benefit from both, but the right approach depends on the individual concern and anatomy. This is determined at the consultation assessment, not in advance.

Is there parking available near Core Aesthetics in Oakleigh?

Yes. Street parking is available on Atherton Road and surrounding streets in central Oakleigh. Oakleigh Station is also a short walk from the clinic, making the appointment accessible by train on the Pakenham, Cranbourne or Glen Waverley lines. Specific parking advice is available when you book.

What should I bring to my first appointment at Core Aesthetics?

No special preparation is required. Arriving without makeup makes the assessment easier, though it is not mandatory. If you have had previous cosmetic injectable treatment elsewhere, bringing any information about the product used or amounts placed is helpful. A list of current medications is useful as some affect bruising risk.

What is the cooling off period for cosmetic injectable treatment in Australia?

Under current AHPRA guidelines, practitioners must not administer prescription cosmetic treatments at the same appointment where the treatment was first proposed to an existing client presenting for a new treatment, unless it is clinically reasonable. Core Aesthetics adheres to all current AHPRA guidelines regarding informed consent and timing of treatment.

Can Core Aesthetics treat clients who have had filler placed elsewhere?

Yes. Corey Anderson will assess what is already present, how it has settled, and whether the current presentation is a good basis for additional treatment. In some cases, dissolving existing filler with hyaluronidase before proceeding is the right approach. This is assessed individually.
