Specialist cosmetic consultations
Every face ages differently. At City Eye Surgeons, your consultation is conducted by a specialist oculoplastic surgeon and begins with a comprehensive assessment of facial anatomy, muscle function, skin quality and your treatment goals. Following this assessment, we will discuss the most appropriate management options, which may include skincare, prescription medicines where clinically appropriate, minimally invasive procedures, eyelid surgery or referral to another specialist.
Unlike many cosmetic providers, anti-wrinkle treatments at City Eye Surgeons are delivered within a specialist ophthalmology practice. This provides an additional level of anatomical expertise around the delicate eye and upper face, making it particularly suitable for patients seeking treatment around the forehead, brow, crow’s feet, eyelids, or for functional conditions affecting the eyes and facial muscles.
Every consultation begins with a personalised assessment to understand your goals, facial movement, and medical history. Treatment plans are carefully tailored to your individual features, ensuring subtle enhancement rather than an over-treated appearance.
Whether your goal is facial rejuvenation or treatment of a medical condition, our focus is always on safe, evidence-based care and results that complement your natural features.
We assess expression-related lines that develop through repeated facial movement, including the forehead, frown lines and crow’s feet, while preserving natural facial expression.
Assessment of eyebrow height, symmetry and muscle balance to determine whether subtle lifting or support may improve facial harmony.
Evaluation of the tissues surrounding the eyes, including fine lines, skin quality and changes associated with ageing.
Assessment of involuntary muscle contractions affecting one side of the face, with management tailored to each patient’s clinical presentation.
Careful assessment of eyelid position and facial symmetry to identify subtle differences and discuss appropriate management options.
Assessment of abnormal muscle activity affecting facial movement, comfort or appearance, with treatment recommendations where clinically appropriate.
Evaluation of involuntary eyelid muscle contractions that may interfere with vision, comfort or day-to-day activities.
Every cosmetic treatment begins with a personalised consultation to understand your goals, assess your facial anatomy, and determine whether treatment is appropriate. The focus is always on achieving natural-looking results that complement your individual features.
Your consultation may include:
Every treatment plan is tailored to your unique facial anatomy rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
City Eye Surgeons will recommend the most appropriate treatment based on your facial structure, muscle movement, and desired outcome. Expected outcomes vary between individuals and will be discussed during your consultation.
Treatment areas, dosage, and follow-up recommendations are discussed before any injections are performed, ensuring you understand what to expect from your treatment.
Every cosmetic consultation is personalised and designed to determine whether treatment is appropriate for your goals and facial anatomy. Your doctor will discuss your concerns, medical history and available treatment options while ensuring you have the information needed to make an informed decision.
Please advise your doctor of any medications, supplements or previous cosmetic treatments during your consultation. Certain blood-thinning medications and supplements may increase the risk of bruising and should be discussed beforehand. Never stop prescribed medication without medical advice.
Where possible, arrive with clean skin free from makeup around the treatment area. Avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise for 24 hours before your appointment, as these may increase the likelihood of bruising.
Cosmetic treatment in Australia is subject to strict regulations designed to protect patients and support informed decision-making.
Depending on the treatment being considered, your care may involve two consultation appointments and a mandatory cooling-off period before treatment can proceed.
Your doctor will discuss the most appropriate treatment pathway based on your individual assessment. This may include anti-wrinkle treatments, skincare recommendations, prescription medicines, minimally invasive procedures, surgical options or referral to another specialist where appropriate. If treatment proceeds, you will receive personalised aftercare instructions and follow-up recommendations to support the best possible outcome.
Recovery varies between individuals, but most patients resume normal activities shortly after treatment, provided they follow a few simple aftercare guidelines.
You may notice mild redness, small bumps, or slight tenderness at the injection sites immediately after treatment. These effects are temporary and typically settle within a few hours. Mild bruising can occasionally occur but usually resolves within several days.
One of the benefits of anti-wrinkle treatment is the minimal disruption to your routine. Most patients return to work and normal daily activities immediately after their appointment.
To achieve the best possible outcome, it is recommended that you avoid strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours, remain upright for approximately four hours following treatment, and avoid rubbing or massaging the treated areas for the rest of the day unless advised otherwise.
Following these simple aftercare instructions helps optimise your results and minimises the risk of the product migrating from the intended treatment area.
Anti-wrinkle treatments do not produce immediate results. Most patients begin noticing improvement within 3 to 5 days, with the full effect developing over approximately 10 to 14 days. Your treatment may be reviewed at a follow-up appointment if required to ensure the desired outcome has been achieved.
Anti-wrinkle treatments are designed to soften facial lines while preserving natural expression. Expected outcomes vary between individuals and will be discussed during your consultation. City Eye Surgeons takes a conservative, personalised approach, tailoring every treatment to your facial anatomy and treatment goals.
Results typically begin to appear within 3–7 days, with the full effect developing over approximately two weeks. The effect generally lasts around three to four months, after which muscle movement gradually returns and repeat treatment can be considered where appropriate. Duration of effect varies between individuals.
The longevity of our cosmetic treatments can vary between individuals depending on factors such as muscle strength, metabolism, treatment area and previous cosmetic procedures. With regular maintenance treatments, many patients find their results become more consistent over time. During your consultation, City Eye Surgeons will recommend a treatment schedule tailored to your goals and lifestyle.
Some cosmetic treatments involve prescription medicines and require individual medical assessment. Our team combines an in-depth understanding of facial anatomy and muscle function with a conservative aesthetic approach.
Every face is unique, which is why every treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation. City Eye Surgeons carefully assesses your facial movement, muscle balance and treatment goals before developing a personalised plan designed to achieve subtle, balanced and natural-looking results.
Your treatment is performed in a professional medical environment using evidence-based techniques and registered therapeutic products. Patient safety, comfort and long-term outcomes remain the priority at every stage, from consultation through to aftercare and ongoing maintenance.
Most patients describe cosmetic injections as causing only mild discomfort, often feeling like a quick pinprick. The treatment is performed using a very fine needle and usually takes just 10–20 minutes, with no anaesthetic required.
Results typically last around three to four months, although this varies between individuals depending on factors such as metabolism, muscle strength and the treatment area. Regular maintenance treatments can help maintain consistent results.
