How We Work
Consultation-Led, Every Time
Hourglass by Design provides personalised, non-surgical body sculpting and skin treatments. Each client completes a consultation and suitability assessment before treatment, based on their individual concerns, goals, relevant health information and suitability for the proposed procedure.
The clinic uses devices included in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods where applicable, including its HIFU, fat-freezing and radiofrequency skin-needling devices. Treatments are performed within Fei's training and scope of practice, following the relevant manufacturer protocols and clinic hygiene procedures.
