Its the last week of the year and everyone is in the jolly holiday mood until the New Year before we start striving hard. Its pretty quiet in my office too, most people are away for holidays and will only be back in the weekend.
Taking this quiet time, I manage to organize my thoughts and plans for t he next year. Its a lot of things definitely, but proper planning will ensure things get done right. Which is why I decided to talk about consultations.
Many people do not realize how important a doctor's consultation is. Many just assume going to doctors when you have a problem and immediately it will be fixed. In medical aesthetics, it is a different ball game. Aesthetic medicine is an elective procedure to the patient, and therefore a good informed consent must be given before the procedure is done.
Its like going to see a gynae because of infertility problems. You talk to the gynae, she examines you and then puts up the options. She informs you of the pros and cons and you decide based on your expectations and budget. It then allows you to plan ahead as to the suitable time for you to commence the treatment or whether any other treatment is required first before you engage the treatment that you wish to choose.
Its the same with aesthetic medicine consultations. Despite giving online replies, I would prefer to meet up with the patient, discuss expectations and also what is their main concern and explain modalities of treatment. A face to face consultation is important to allow examination of the face or body to give a more accurate treatment plan to patients. It will also allow you to discuss your budget and how you wish to proceed.
