Ask who
provides your care.
Confirm the treating professional’s name, qualifications and role. Ask who will answer preparation and follow-up questions for your specific treatment.
Our approach
An informed conversation gives you room to understand your options, ask practical questions and decide what feels right for your goals.
A treatment name is only the start of the conversation.
Ask what an option is intended to address, why it may be suitable for you, what alternatives exist and what it can realistically change. The choice should account for your skin, history, schedule and preferences.
Knowing the limits matters too. Results vary, follow-up can be part of a plan, and a treatment may not be the best next step for every concern.
Confirm the treating professional’s name, qualifications and role. Ask who will answer preparation and follow-up questions for your specific treatment.
Discuss expected benefits, treatment-specific risks, alternatives, recovery, any planned series and how progress will be assessed.
Request an explanation of the proposed plan and complete cost. Take the time you need to ask questions before choosing a treatment.
