Another New Year saw more people enquire about how cosmetic and skin surgery treatments might benefit them.
The New Year is always a busy time for us here at Good Skin Days and this January we had a number of people start the New Year by enquiring about cosmetic and skin surgery treatments for the first time. The New Year is often seen as a time to try something new and exciting. In this blog I’ll outline the importance of realistic expectations and a professional plan in achieving your goal.
Expert advice on your options
Our professional practitioners carry out a thorough consultation so they can create a treatment plan that you feel comfortable with.
We receive lots of enquiries about specific treatments throughout the year and most people who contact us have researched the clinic and the type of treatment they would like. However, in January and February, many people contact us with a goal in mind but they are unsure of the type of treatment that is available. One of the first things we do is assess the patient’s needs and then create a professional plan – there are no quick fixes.
Many of the enquiries we get in the first four or five weeks of the year are quite general. Patients often articulate their concerns and then ask “what can you do for me?”.
Someone may get in touch because they are concerned about lines and wrinkles and at this point we would arrange a full consultation with one of our qualified nurses. We can offer injectable treatments such as Botox and fillers, but for someone new to the clinic, they may also suggest less invasive treatments such as Clear + Brilliant or a Skin Peel. Once someone has decided on a course of treatment our practitioners will develop a treatment plan.
We’ll help you plan
Helping people achieve their goal is rewarding but it is essential that we are honest in helping people manage their expectations.
When most people join a gym they don’t expect to lose two stone in two weeks or to have crafted a Daniel Craig-like torso after one session on the weights.
A professional trainer would normally reflect on a person’s goals and then create a realistic plan that will help that individual work towards their targets. We work in a similar way. Our practitioners will listen to your concerns, discuss what it is you want to achieve and how much you want to spend, and then decide on a treatment plan that is appropriate for you.
Everything we do here is geared towards achieving optimum results but we want people to be realistic about what we can achieve and ensure that people get value for money. At times, we have to be professional enough to tell people that what they want to achieve is not possible or that they should consider a different type of treatment.
A carefully crafted plan, with a realistic timescale, can only be achieved after a professional consultation. We are not in the business of quick fixes or false promises, we are a registered and regulated medical clinic and we provide a professional service.
So if you are considering treatment, you should be safe in the knowledge, that our team can achieve outstanding results by engaging you in an honest and open consultation process and creating a treatment plan that will work for you.
