Ask these before you book
Clear answers to these make a decision much easier.
- Will a licensed provider see me before any treatment?
- Who gives the treatment, and what is their license?
- What specific training do they have for it?
- What is the device or product, and why do you use it?
- What does a series involve, and how many visits is typical?
- What should aftercare look like?
- If something goes wrong, what happens next?
- Can I have the full cost in writing first?
Before you go
Take ten minutes to jot down a few things. It saves time and helps you get clear answers.
- What you would like to change or ask about.
- Your medical history and current medications.
- Any reactions you have had to skin products or treatments.
- The questions you want answered.
At the end of the consultation, write down what was recommended, the number of sessions and the total cost.
If something feels rushed
Trust your sense that something is off. Common warning signs include:
- Being told to decide now or lose a deal.
- Being treated without a consultation first.
- Not being told who will do the treatment.
- No clear, written total cost.
- Promises about exactly how you will look.
You can check the person's license with the relevant California state board before you return.
