FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Is it safe to have aesthetic treatments?

When performed by a qualified medical professional using appropriate technique and products, aesthetic treatments have an excellent safety record. At Evolve, all treatments are carried out by a Registered Nurse and Independent Prescriber. We carry emergency reversal agents and follow evidence-based protocols.

What happens at a consultation?

Your consultation is a relaxed, no-pressure conversation. We will discuss your goals, assess your facial anatomy, review your medical history and explain the options available to you. There is no obligation to proceed with any treatment on the day.

How do I know if a treatment is right for me?

This is exactly what the consultation is for. We will assess your suitability for any treatment and give you an honest recommendation. If a treatment is not right for you, we will tell you — and suggest alternatives if appropriate.

What if I have a concern after my treatment?

Please contact us immediately if you have any concerns after your treatment. We take post-treatment care very seriously and will always respond promptly. Emergency contact details are provided at the time of your appointment.

Can treatments be reversed?

Anti-wrinkle injections wear off naturally over 3–4 months. Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if needed — this is one of the reasons we only use hyaluronic acid products.

What age do I need to be to have treatment?

You must be 18 or over to receive any aesthetic treatment at Evolve Aesthetics Clinic. We will ask for proof of age if there is any doubt.
