What Should We Discuss at an Aesthetic Consultation?

A starting point for explaining your concerns, sharing your history and making an informed decision.

You do not need to arrive at an aesthetic consultation knowing which procedure you want. Explaining the change that concerns you and how you feel about it is a good starting point.

Understanding your expectations

What draws your attention in the mirror? Are you seeking an appearance from a photograph, or is a particular change in your own face troubling you? Making expectations concrete helps the assessment.

Considering the decision together

Share previous procedures, medicines and medical history. Ask about the purpose of the proposed approach, risks, alternatives and what choosing no procedure would mean.

Leaving the consultation

It is natural to need time to decide. The aim is for you to understand the process and its limits well enough to make a decision that suits you.
