Choosing an Injector

Making the decision to undergo an aesthetic treatment isn’t one that comes lightly nor should it be something that you jump into. Many of my patients have been researching for years, asking friends for recommendations and looking online for reviews and testimonials as well as genuine results pictures online.

It’s important to not only find the right treatment that will achieve the results you want, but also to find the right practitioner – someone who is medically qualified, insured and can offer friendly, no-pressure advice to put you at ease. We say this time and time again - do not have a procedure carried out by someone who isn’t a medical professional.

It’s still a huge honour when someone chooses to come and see me for the first time and find out how I can help them. Often there are many questions, fears and concerns that we need to discuss in detail before we both agree if going ahead if the right thing to do - or not.

So what are the most common concerns a new patient has when the come into clinic for the first time?

1) Pressure

A lot of patients tell me that from previous experience of other clinics they fear having pressure on them to go ahead. I would never put pressure on somebody to have a treatment which will effectively change your appearance - if anything I’m knowing for turning patients away who are begging me to inject them.

2) Pain

A lot of patients are worried they are going to be in extreme amounts of pain when undergoing a procedure. You can be rest assured that we always numb patients either with dental block or cream. If you are writhing around in pain then we have no chance of getting a good result - so you can be rest assured that pain isn’t something you are going to feel.

3) Looking “done”

We have patients of all ages and so many fear looking overdone. We would never in a million years allow this to happen and as said about we are known for turning people away who want to be injected.
