The Importance of Surgical & Med Spa Consultations Before a Procedure

  • Posted on: Nov 22 2023

Whenever you buy a piece of clothing, you need to try it on first, to make sure that it fits. The same thing applies to surgical and med spa consultations. A consultation is necessary to make sure that a specific service or treatment is the right choice for you.

A consultation does not just involve pleasantries and paperwork. It is there to establish trust with your provider, discuss your aesthetic goals, set realistic expectations, and get a treatment plan in place as you begin this journey to enhanced beauty. In this blog, we will elaborate on why consultations are an essential part of your journey toward beauty and why they should not be skipped.

What Is a Surgical and Medical Spa Consultation?

A surgical and medical spa consultation is a preliminary step that you have to go through before undergoing a beauty treatment or procedure. During your consultation, you will be asked various things such as your medical history and your beauty goals, determining a treatment for your needs. 

Consultations also allow you to learn more about specific procedures so that you know exactly what to expect. Our providers may offer advice on how you should prepare before the treatment, ensuring that everything goes as smoothly as possible. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions about the treatment that may or may not be included in the standard brochures. 

Why Is a Consultation Important?

There are several reasons why you should consider getting a consultation before any type of procedure. Here is how it can help: 

1. Assessment of the Patient

Each patient is different, with their own requirements, skin care needs and body condition. Rather than treating you as just another patient, our providers want to assess everything from your previous treatments to your cosmetic and aesthetic goals. This way, the treatment can be tailored to your specific needs. 

2. Expectation Management

During the consultation, patients can discuss their expectations and understand what can realistically be achieved through various treatments. This helps manage patient expectations and avoid disappointment post-treatment.

3. Safety Precautions

Aside from determining your goals and looking at your medical history, consultations are also there to set safety precautions. Our providers will identify allergies, potential contraindications, or anything that may be considered a red flag. For instance, while most cosmetic procedures are safe for everyone, conditions such as pregnancy may take you off the candidate list. This is done to prevent potential side effects that may happen in your particular case.

4. Previous Treatment Review

Aside from taking safety precautions, consultations are also necessary for gathering history and previous treatment information. For instance, if you have had a bad or unsatisfying experience with a certain procedure, our providers may use that information to find a better-suited service for you. In the case of maintenance treatments, a consultation can determine if you should get a second procedure or wait a bit more.

5. Trust Building

You might not be able to relax during a beauty procedure if you do not trust your provider. Psychological stress plays a very important role when it comes to treatment outcomes, which is why you need to learn as much as possible about the provider. For this reason, you are encouraged to ask questions during the consultation so that you have peace of mind that the treatment will go smoothly. 

The Bottom Line

As eager as you may be to dive into the surgical or medical spa procedure directly, you may want to get a consultation first. This way, you can find out more about the treatment and whether it’s a good fit for you or not. Contact Azul® Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Spa and ask for a consultation before your next beauty procedure or treatment!
