Your Ultimate Facial Blueprint: Transforming the Future of Rejuvenation Consultations

Patients Pre operative Picture

No two faces are the same, so therefore, no facial rejuvenation will be the same. Consultations with Anthony MacQuillan stand out because he appreciates this above all. That’s why he creates something truly unique: your own personal facial blueprint.

What is a Facial Blueprint?

In your consultation, Mr MacQuillan will take a clinical photograph and ask you to identify and mark the areas that you feel dissatisfied with. His first duty as a surgeon is to listen to what you feel that you need. To help him understand, please explain how these areas make you feel and why you would like to change them. We can discuss if you have an event, goal or story in mind, the consultation is your space to express your expectations. As one facial blueprint is different from the next, this is the best way to tailor your experience to what you desire. The aim is to work in a partnership to understand your goal.

During your consultation, Mr MacQuillan will then utilise his anatomical knowledge to mark out zones of aging, tissue descent, volume loss, and skin laxity using a technique developed exclusively for his patients. The result is a colourful, anatomical “blueprint” that maps out precisely what you both think needs attention. This is all done on his iPad using the photograph.

In short:

· The Blueprint is Tailored to You: No two patients receive the same plan. Your blueprint reflects your own facial anatomy, concerns, and desired outcomes.

· Picture Perfect: You’ll see the full surgical or non-surgical plan in a clear, visual format – giving you confidence in the approach and understanding of what’s being addressed.

· A Collaborative Discussion: This is a conversation – your consultation is about you and your goals.

How does the Facial Blueprint work?

1. Photo Taken During Consultation: In order to get the most accurate representation of what both you and Mr MacQuillan see, a professional clinical image is taken of your face in natural light with a neutral expression – imagine having your passport photo taken!
2. Patient Annotations: You’re then invited to highlight areas of concern directly on the image with an Apple Pencil. Whether it’s sagging skin, deep folds, volume loss or anything else, you must show what you require as Mr MacQuillan won’t necessarily see what you see at first.
3. Expert Road-Mapping: Mr MacQuillan adds his detailed anatomical overlays: from fat pad descent to SMAS lifting vectors and skin re-draping zones. Everything is colour-coded for clarity, and he will explain everything as he goes along.
4. Blueprint Review: Together, you review the blueprint and discuss the plan – whether surgical or non-surgical, to achieve your rejuvenation goals.
5. A Keepsake: This photo is then attached to your consent form, along with all the other information that you need to know about your procedure, and this is sent to you by email. In this email we also include your procedural plan that has been discussed with Mr MacQuillan.
