ABOUT
Carefully tailored anti-wrinkle treatments that soften expression lines, relax overactive muscles and restore natural harmony, with results that look effortlessly you.
Consultations For Non-Surgical Enhancements
All consultations at Hanné Aesthetics begin with a thorough clinical assessment conducted by our experienced registered nurse. This process includes a detailed discussion of your concerns and preferences.
Following this, we will develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your individual needs and suitability, ensuring all options are explained transparently.
Every treatment is guided by clinical expertise and a strong focus on safety and ethical care.
The concerns we treat
These consultations cover several different concerns. They share an underlying mechanism, which is why they sit together, and they share the same risk profile.
Most commonly the forehead, the area between the brows and around the eyes. Assessment looks at how the muscles in these areas actually behave, which differs considerably between people.
Expression lines
Jaw tension & clenching
Presenting as tension, clenching, or a change in the width of the lower face. Not everything in this area is best addressed in a cosmetic clinic. Where a dental opinion or a referral is the more appropriate path, we will say so.
Most commonly underarm, though other areas can be discussed. Excessive sweating has a range of causes and some are better managed elsewhere. This consultation establishes what is going on before it establishes what to do about it.
Excessive Sweating
A shorter, focused appointment for a defined concern. If what you want to discuss is broader than this, book the full consultation instead.
The upper lip area
Suitability
Some people who book are not suitable, and being told so is a legitimate outcome of a consultation rather than a wasted appointment.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding, certain neuromuscular conditions, active infection in the area, and some medications are all reasons we will decline or defer. So is a history that suggests treatment is unlikely to address what is actually bothering you.
We also decline where expectations cannot reasonably be met. If what you are describing is not something this category of treatment can deliver, you will be told that rather than sold something adjacent to it.
When we say no
Cost
Prices for consultations in this category are not published. Australian advertising regulations restrict what clinics may publish about treatments involving prescription-only substances, and we comply with those rules.
The practical reason is the same. What is appropriate for you cannot be determined before you are assessed, so any figure published in advance would be a guess.
You will be given a full cost at your consultation, before anything proceeds, with no obligation to go ahead.

Common Questions
-
Common and expected
Bruising, which can last one to two weeks
Swelling and redness at the treated area
Tenderness for a day or two
Headache
Small raised marks that settle within an hour
Less common, and more serious
Spread to adjacent muscles, which can cause drooping of an eyelid or brow
Asymmetry, including an uneven smile or uneven brow position
Difficulty forming particular expressions
Infection at the treated site
Allergic reaction
The point people most often miss: effects in this category are temporary, and so are the complications. If an unwanted effect occurs, it generally cannot be reversed. It has to wear off, and that can take several weeks to several months.
-
Recovery varies between people. You may need to change your plans, and it is worth knowing that before you book rather than after.
The first few hours: Stay upright. Avoid rubbing, massaging or applying pressure to the treated area, including facials and sleeping face down.
The first 24 hours: No exercise, no alcohol, no saunas, hot yoga or steam. Heat and elevated blood flow can affect both comfort and outcome.
Bruising: One to two weeks is normal and it cannot always be avoided. Some people bruise every time. Some never do.
Before an event: Allow a minimum of two weeks, and four if it matters. Do not book in the fortnight before a wedding, a shoot or anything you cannot reschedule.
If something is not settling: Contact the clinic. Do not wait for your next appointment and do not wait to see whether it resolves on its own.
-
Because Australian regulations for higher-risk cosmetic procedures prohibit them, and because they would not tell you anything useful. Another person's anatomy, skin and response are not a guide to yours.
What you will get instead is an assessment of your own face and a clear account of what is and is not achievable for you.
-
Testimonials about regulated health services are prohibited in Australia, for every registered practitioner and every clinic. Any clinic showing you them is not following the rules.
-
Tell us. Some things can be adjusted once the full effect has developed, which is why the two-week review exists. Some cannot, and have to be waited out until the effect wears off.
Your nurse will explain which category your concern falls into rather than promising a fix.
-
People experience this differently. We will tell you what to expect, but we cannot tell you it will be comfortable for you.
-
Yes, you must be 18 years or older.
-
A review appointment is recommended around two weeks after treatment, once the full effect has developed. It takes fifteen minutes and lets your nurse assess the outcome properly and adjust the plan where needed.
