Expression-line consultations
Assessment of dynamic lines and facial movement, with a plan that aims to preserve appropriate expression.
Face / Facial aesthetics
Thoughtful changes. Recognisably you.
A medical consultation for women considering treatment of expression lines, facial balance, volume changes or skin quality.
The approach
The consultation comes before the treatment.
Good facial aesthetics begins with diagnosis, proportion and restraint - not a menu of syringes. Dr Luhard assesses how your face looks at rest and in motion, listens to what you want, and identifies where treatment may or may not add value.
You will be told about realistic benefits, limitations, material risks, likely downtime, alternatives and the option not to proceed.
What we can discuss
Facial balance and support
Assessment of age-related or structural volume changes and how these influence overall facial balance.
Collagen and skin quality
Discussion of medically appropriate approaches that may support skin quality over time.
Staged treatment plans
Priorities can be separated into sensible phases rather than completing everything in one visit.
Bring a reference, not a demand
It is useful to show what you like or dislike, but treatment should be adapted to your anatomy rather than copying another person's face.
Doctor-led facial aesthetics for women in Pretoria
Consultations take place with Dr Luhard at Medify, 265 Main Street, Waterkloof, Pretoria. FemaleHealth is designed as a private entry point for adult women who want clear medical guidance before deciding on facial aesthetic treatment.
Natural-looking is a process, not a promise
Natural-looking outcomes depend on anatomy, treatment choice, dose or volume, technique, healing and individual response. The responsible approach is to agree on a direction, avoid exaggerated claims and review the result at the appropriate time.
Questions
What women ask
No. You may use the consultation to understand the options and decide later.
Sometimes, but more treatment is not automatically better. A staged plan may be safer, easier to assess and more financially manageable.
Provide an accurate medical history, medication and supplement list, previous procedure history, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding status, and any upcoming events. Specific pre-treatment instructions are only given after a treatment is selected.

Aesthetic treatments before the holidays: plan for recovery, not just the appointment.
A date in your diary does not determine whether a treatment is right for you. Allow room for assessment, recovery and follow-up before making a holiday or event plan.
Pigmentation before summer: why a stronger peel is not always the answer.
Dark marks can look similar but need different care. Before booking a peel or changing your entire routine, understand the pigment, the risks and the plan for protecting your skin.
Weight, energy and skin changes: why women need an assessment, not a hormone reset.
When several things change at once, a single explanation can sound reassuring. A careful assessment asks what is connected, what is separate and what should happen before treatment.
Not sure what to book? Start with the concern - not the treatment.
Women are often expected to arrive with the answer: a product name, a procedure or a diagnosis. A responsible consultation works in the opposite direction.
