Skin quality treatments are commonly used in aesthetic medicine and may form part of a personalised treatment plan.
These treatments are different from traditional skin treatments such as facials, peels and other surface-based procedures.
They are generally used as part of an overall approach to skin quality and skin support.
Treatment recommendations vary between individuals and depend on factors such as skin quality, treatment goals, medical history and clinical assessment.
Skin quality treatments are generally used as part of an overall treatment plan focused on skin quality and support.
Different treatment approaches may be used depending on the concerns being assessed and the treatment plan developed during consultation.
Treatment recommendations vary between individuals and are influenced by factors such as skin quality, age, medical history, previous treatments and treatment goals.
Not all treatments are suitable for all patients and treatment outcomes vary between individuals.
The timeframe for noticing treatment outcomes varies depending on the treatment performed and individual response.
Some treatments may develop gradually over time, while others may follow a different treatment timeline.
For this reason, treatment outcomes should not be assessed immediately following treatment.
Expected treatment timelines will be discussed during your consultation and may vary depending on the treatment plan being performed.
Not all treatments are suitable for all individuals.
Factors such as medical history, current medications, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding status, previous treatments and individual health circumstances may influence treatment suitability.
In some situations, treatment may need to be delayed, modified or avoided altogether.
Suitability is assessed on an individual basis prior to treatment.
Skin quality treatments and volumising treatments are different treatment categories and are used for different treatment goals.
Volumising treatments are generally designed to restore facial support, structure and volume.
Skin quality treatments are generally focused on improving skin quality, hydration, elasticity and overall skin appearance.
Some skin quality treatments may also provide subtle support or volume depending on the product selected and your individual treatment plan.
The most appropriate treatment approach is determined during your consultation based on your concerns, anatomy, treatment goals and clinical assessment.

Skin quality treatments and volumising treatments are different treatment categories and are used for different purposes.
Volumising treatments are generally focused on support, structure and volume within specific areas.
Skin quality treatments are generally focused on overall skin quality and may form part of a broader treatment plan.
The most appropriate treatment approach depends on factors such as your concerns, anatomy, treatment goals and clinical assessment.
The timeframe for noticing treatment outcomes varies depending on the treatment performed and individual response.
Some treatments may develop gradually over time, while others may follow a different treatment timeline.
For this reason, treatment outcomes should not be assessed immediately following treatment.
Expected treatment timelines vary between individuals and treatment types.
The longevity of skin quality treatments varies depending on the treatment performed, your skin concerns, how dry your skin is to begin with, lifestyle factors and your body’s natural response.
Many skin quality treatments have a cumulative effect, meaning the results build on previous treatments over time. If a series of treatments is recommended, completing the treatment plan is important to achieve the best outcome.
Many people choose to maintain their results with ongoing treatments at intervals recommended by their practitioner as part of a personalised treatment plan.
Some skin quality treatments may leave small visible lumps or bumps in the treated area while the product settles. This is a normal part of the treatment process and generally resolves over the following hours or days, depending on the treatment performed.
For this reason, these treatments are often best performed later in the day or when you don’t need to return straight back to work or social activities.
Your practitioner will discuss what you can expect and provide treatment-specific aftercare instructions before you leave the clinic.
Depending on the treatment performed, your practitioner may recommend a follow-up appointment to assess your response and discuss any further treatment if appropriate.
Some skin quality treatments, particularly collagen stimulation treatments, are commonly performed as a series to achieve the best results. If a series of treatments is recommended, each treatment builds on the results of the previous one, so completing the recommended treatment plan is important to achieve the desired outcome.
Your practitioner will discuss your recommended treatment plan, expected timeline and any follow-up appointments during your consultation.
