A Few Things to Consider Before You Undergo A Cosmetic Treatment

With celebrities and people from several walks of life coming forward about their cosmetic surgery, it is no exaggeration to say that cosmetic treatments are on the rise. However, before you even book an appointment with your surgeon, you must learn about a few key things.

 

Who is behind the needle?

90% of the success of cosmetic treatments in Australia depends on the surgeon performing it. The remaining 10% is dependent on the product used during the treatment. If you know someone who has gone under the needle and look appealing, consider their recommendations. It is also imperative to inquire about the credentials. Be sure to ask how long the practitioner has been doing these aesthetic treatments and ask them to show their previous work samples. Ask for before-and-after pictures of their patients.

 

Once you have found someone promising, do not rush. Consider booking an appointment for consultation and advice regarding the treatment. That will give you the opportunity to discuss your expectations, possible outcomes and to take time to think about it before the procedure starts.

 

Be clear with your budget

During your consultation session, discuss your budget and see if it aligns with what your practitioner suggests. Patients often have to pay more money than they usually think. You are likely to get the best results if you decide to wait until you can afford to pay for an all-inclusive cosmetic treatment.

 

Set your expectations right

Even if you want plumped cheekbones or lips, bringing pictures of your favourite celebrities is not helpful at all. Find the best photo of yourself, and bring that along on the day of your appointment. This gives you a more realistic reference point and will help your injector better understand how to improve your natural features. Be open to suggestions. As long as you are seeking guidance from a trained injector, be willing to listen to their suggestions.

 

What to do before and after the procedure?

While injectables are minimally invasive and can be done in a few minutes, pre-and post-appointment steps are a must to follow. Since bruising and swelling are the most common side effects, especially in the lips, book appointments 48 hours before any significant event.

 

How long will the results last?

Multiple factors can impact the longevity of the results, including the products used, type of the procedure, injection area, and more. Botulinum toxin lasts for four to six months, whereas hyaluronic acid fillers can last from six to 18 months.

Hence, if you like your results, make this another part of your beauty regimen that will need some upkeep. You must also see your practitioner at regular intervals for guidance.
