It is important that you choose a clinic where suitably qualified and experienced practitioners carry out treatments. If in doubt, ask to see their credentials. Aesthetic practitioners offering wrinkle reduction, body sculpting or laser hair removal treatments should have appropriate medical indemnity insurance. Just also be sure that they know what they are doing too. This is also key.
Qualifications are key
Most clients looking into aesthetic treatments understand that this is the number 1 priority to ensure they are in safe hand. However, research finds that over 85% of clients do not check that their aesthetic practitioner in London is fully qualified or has any certifications. In the right hands, wrinkle reduction treatments such as injections, filler or other key treatment too.
Insurances are also key
Aesthetic practitioners offering wrinkle reduction, body sculpting or laser hair removal treatments should have appropriate medical indemnity insurance. When attending any new clinic you should ask to see this insurance as it should be displayed on the wall in the clinic reception. Any reputable clinic will be happy to respond to an enquiry about insurance. They will also be keen to reassure you that as a client, your safety and care comes first.
Take a trip to visit the clinic
Any cosmetic treatment you’re looking to have is a big commitment, therefore it is important to book a face-to-face consultation appointment first before going ahead with any treatment. Any reputable clinic will offer face-to-face consultations without commitment of treatment. If they do not offer this and want to offer a consultation over the phone you should decline. You should then look for a different clinic. You must ask yourself, how can they really understand your needs without first meeting with you face-to-face. It is also important that all clinics provide a clean and suitable environment.
Before you commit to have any treatment you can assess the clinic and choose weather or not you want to have treatment there. Hygiene practices should be taken very seriously, as the safeguarding of clients health and wellbeing should be a priority. Be wary of aesthetic specialists offering injections outside a clinic environment (including injection parties).
Overall
Most reputable aesthetic clinics will be happy for you to book a no obligation face-to-face consultation appointment. This will let you check out staff and premises, ask any questions, and identify the best aesthetic treatment for you without being under any pressure to commit. If the clinic seems to be too focussed on ‘selling’, don’t be afraid to walk away. Just be sure to make sure that you have a good feeling.
