Your consultation question list
Print it, save it to your phone, or copy it into a note.
- What are your qualifications, and who else might treat me?
- Where did you train for this procedure?
- Which product or device do you use?
- What should I expect over a full series?
- How should I care for the area afterward?
- What side effects are common, and which are rare?
- How do you handle problems if they come up?
- What will I pay in total, and is it in writing?
Come prepared
Providers ask a lot of questions at a consultation, and it is easy to forget something in the moment. Write the main points down beforehand.
Include your health history, every medication and supplement you take, any allergies, and any previous treatments such as peels, laser or injectables. Note anything you are worried about. Then add your own questions, such as who will perform the treatment and what it will cost in total.
When to pause
A consultation should feel like an exchange of information. If it feels like a sales pitch, take a step back.
Watch for pressure to commit on the spot, a treatment offered with no consultation, unclear answers about who does the work, or a reluctance to write down the total cost. Each of these is a reason to wait. To look up a license, search the website of the relevant Texas state licensing board by the person's name.
A licensed provider decides what is suitable for you. Send a request to begin that conversation.
