An aesthetic consultation is an opportunity to discuss your goals, understand possible approaches and decide whether any procedure is appropriate. It should be a two-way conversation rather than a sales appointment.
Discussion and assessment
The practitioner may ask about your goals, medical history, medicines, allergies, previous procedures and relevant lifestyle factors. They should explain what they can and cannot offer, and whether further medical assessment is needed.
Options, risks and consent
You should receive understandable information about the proposed procedure, alternatives, expected recovery, costs and possible complications. Ask questions until you feel clear. Consent should be voluntary and you should have time to consider the information.
Aftercare and follow-up
Before leaving, understand who to contact with questions, what aftercare is recommended and what symptoms require prompt medical attention. Ask for written instructions when available.
