Consultation Required Prior to Treatment
Neuromodulator treatment involves the use of prescription-only medicines that can assist in temporarily relaxing selected facial muscles. These muscles may contribute to the appearance of fine lines or facial expressions over time. Treatment is always preceded by a consultation and assessment with a qualified health practitioner to determine suitability and develop an individualised approach.
Treatments are conducted by a registered nurse under the direction of a prescribing medical practitioner, as required by law. These are Schedule 4 prescription medicines, which can only be provided following a consultation with a qualified prescriber.

-
Very fine needles are used to administer the product to targeted areas.
