A considered approach to addressing facial lines and wrinkles.
Lines and wrinkles form naturally as we age, often from repeated facial expressions like frowning, squinting, or raising our eyebrows. At My Cosmetic Clinic, we offer a range of non-surgical procedures, such as wrinkle consultations, that may help soften their appearance.
Our qualified practitioners use a personalised approach, assessing your facial structure and current concerns to see if you are eligible for a tailored treatment plan. Contact our team for a consultation to see whether this treatment may be right for you.
Adults concerned about the visible effects of facial muscle movement may consider facial skin consultations. While anyone can reach out to discuss wrinkle treatments, it is most often considered for:
Not everyone is a suitable candidate for this procedure. A detailed consultation is required to determine whether or not you are eligible for the treatment.

If you are assessed to be suitable for a wrinkle treatment, this is what you can expect on the day.
After your consultation and once you've clearly discussed your goals, your practitioner will prepare the area by applying an ice pack and cleansing the skin.
An experienced, qualified professional will then carefully map the target area to highlight the administration site.
Cosmetic injectables, using a very fine needle, may be administered to the target areas. Any sensations during the procedure are usually brief, and your practitioner will explain what to expect beforehand.
Mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity around the treated areas is common shortly after the procedure. Your practitioner will provide detailed aftercare instructions tailored to your appointment.
Some general post-visit recommendations include:
It is crucial to understand that every person responds differently, and outcomes depend on your individual skin type, muscle activity, and overall health. Please feel free to contact us at any point after your appointment if there’s anything that concerns you.
The outcomes shown here are only relevant for each patient and do not necessarily represent the results other patients may experience.
Our team of qualified health practitioners have experience in delivering wrinkle treatments designed to address a variety of skin concerns.
Our goal is to focus on patient education and open communication, helping you understand your treatment options and feel comfortable asking questions.
Patient safety is a priority in our practice, and we work to meet high standards across every aspect of the care we provide.
My Cosmetic Clinic is the first cosmetic clinic in Australia to be accredited against the National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) Standards, following independent assessment of how we care for patients.

It’s completely normal to think about changes like fine lines and wrinkles as we age. At My Cosmetic Clinic, our experienced team is here to help you fully understand your options, from the likely risks and outcomes to what a treatment plan might involve.
At your initial consultation, we’ll talk through your options and whether treatment is likely to suit what you’re looking for. We’ll go over potential risks, side effects, and aftercare so you have the full picture before you decide, and you’ll have time to ask any questions you have.
It depends on the condition. Some skin conditions may affect whether treatment is suitable, or when it’s appropriate.
The best approach is to raise it at your consultation, where your practitioner can assess your skin and medical history and talk you through whether treatment may be appropriate for you.
Research on the safety of wrinkle procedures during pregnancy is limited, so we do not recommend them while pregnant. Please consult your GP, obstetrician, or our practitioners about a suitable plan during or after pregnancy.
We advise against undergoing any in-clinic wrinkle procedures while breastfeeding, as research on how these procedures may affect breast milk is limited. Always consult your healthcare provider before proceeding.
This may be possible, depending on your discussion with a qualified practitioner.
During your consultation, we can assess whether combining a wrinkle consultation with a facial volume consultation suits your goals, and develop a personalised plan based on that assessment.
Only qualified healthcare professionals, such as registered nurses or medical practitioners, should perform wrinkle procedures. At My Cosmetic Clinic, qualified practitioners carry out all wrinkle consultations and procedures.
A typical wrinkle consultation, including the clinical procedure (if suitable), takes around 20 minutes. The actual procedure itself usually lasts 2-5 minutes, depending on the number of areas discussed and treated.
Most people tolerate these procedures well. Many describe a slight pinch or sting that passes before long. You can request a topical numbing cream during your consultation if needed.
Tell your practitioner at any stage, and they can pause or adjust as needed. You can also request a topical numbing cream during your consultation if you’d prefer one.
This varies between individuals and depends on how your body responds. Any visible effects typically appear around 14 days after the procedure.
Effects typically last 3 to 4 months, though this varies between individuals. Factors such as metabolism, muscle activity, and line depth may affect how long any effect remains visible.
Because results aren’t permanent, future consultations may be recommended to help maintain your desired outcomes, depending on your individual needs and goals.
Most people return every 3 to 4 months for maintenance, but this varies based on personal goals and how your body responds. Your practitioner will recommend an ideal schedule during your consultation.
Yes, in some cases, a wrinkle consultation and procedure may lead to a recommendation for a ‘lip flip’ effect, which aims to create a subtle upward turn in the upper lip. This result is temporary and should always be discussed with your practitioner during the consultation.
Some individuals may experience mild headaches following wrinkle procedures, especially when they are part of migraine management. These are typically short-lived and may be managed with over-the-counter medication. If symptoms persist, please contact your healthcare provider.
It’s best to wait 4-6 hours before applying makeup to the treated area. This allows the skin to settle and minimises the risk of irritation. After this period, you may return to your regular skincare routine.

Cost varies from person to person, depending on the areas discussed and your individual plan. We’ll talk you through pricing at your consultation and give you a full quote before proceeding.
The National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) Standards are a national set of requirements developed by the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care.
They cover areas such as infection control, medication safety, clinical governance, and patient involvement in decisions about their own care.
Important Information
All cosmetic procedures carry risk. Outcomes vary between individuals and depend on your health, your anatomy, your skin, and how your body responds. No result can be guaranteed.
Any images shown of actual patients treated at My Cosmetic Clinic are published with consent and show the outcome for that patient only. They do not indicate the result you would experience. Any use of stock imagery is not reflective of results.
Some procedures involve prescription-only medicines. Under Australian law, these cannot be named or advertised to the public. Whether a prescription medicine is suitable for you is a decision made with a qualified health practitioner during consultation, after an assessment of your history and your goals.
Every procedure requires a consultation before treatment. During that consultation, your practitioner will explain the risks, the likely recovery, how long any effect may take to appear, how long it may last, and how often treatment may need to be repeated. You will be given time to consider your options before you decide.
