Wrinkle-reducing consultations are a popular non-surgical aesthetic option for many. The personalised solutions discussed during the consultations help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, you must follow several vital steps to prepare for these consultations and solutions to ensure you achieve the best results and minimise potential risks. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you prepare for your wrinkle-reducing consultations and solutions at Nitai Medical and Cosmetic Centre.
Understanding Wrinkle Reducing Consultations
Wrinkle-reducing consultations offer an opportunity to discuss your skin concerns and understand your skin type openly. They also help you learn about the various tailored solutions that can help you eliminate wrinkles and fine lines and achieve a smoother and more pleasing skin tone. The solutions that are discussed during the consultations work to temporarily relax the muscles responsible for wrinkles. As a result, the appearance of wrinkles diminishes, and you achieve an improved facial appearance. The most common areas discussed during the consultations include forehead lines, crow’s feet around the eyes, and frown lines between the eyebrows.
Consultation with a Qualified Practitioner
The first step is to schedule a consultation with a qualified and experienced practitioner. At Nitai Medical and Cosmetic Centre, our practitioners are highly trained and adhere to the highest safety standards.
During the consultation:
- Medical History Review: Your practitioner will review your medical history to ensure you are a suitable candidate for the therapy. This includes discussing any medications or supplements you are taking, as some can affect the outcome of the procedure.
- Discussing Expectations: It’s crucial to have realistic expectations. Your practitioner will explain what the personalised solutions can and cannot achieve. It helps you understand the potential results and limitations.
- Customised Treatment Plan: A personalised treatment plan will be developed based on your concerns and desired outcomes.
Avoid Certain Medications and Supplements
To minimise the risk of bruising and bleeding, you should avoid certain medications and supplements for at least a week before your appointment. These include:
- Blood Thinners: Aspirin, ibuprofen, and other NSAIDs can increase the risk of bruising.
- Herbal Supplements: Supplements like fish oil, vitamin E, and ginkgo biloba can also increase bleeding risk.
- Alcohol: Refrain from consuming alcohol for at least 24 hours before your treatment, as it can increase the likelihood of bruising.
Skincare Routine Adjustments
In the days leading up to your treatment, it’s essential to adjust your skincare routine:
- Avoid Retinoids and Exfoliants: These can make your skin more sensitive and increase the risk of irritation.
- Moisturize: Keep your skin well-hydrated with a good moisturiser to ensure it’s in the best condition for treatment.
- Sun Protection: Protect your skin from sun exposure, as sunburned skin can be more sensitive and prone to complications.
On the Day of the Treatment
On the day of your winkle-reducing consultation appointment:
- Clean Skin: Ensure your skin is clean and free from makeup, lotions, and other skincare products.
- Comfortable Clothing: Wear comfortable clothing to your appointment to help you relax.
- Arrive Early: Arriving 15 to 20 minutes before the scheduled time can help you feel more relaxed and allow time for necessary paperwork.
Post-Treatment Care
After your wrinkle-reducing consultations, there are several steps you should take to ensure optimal results and minimise side effects:
- Avoid Touching the Treated Area: Do not touch, rub, or massage the treated area for at least 24 hours to prevent the spread of the product to unintended areas.
- Stay Upright: Keep your head elevated and avoid lying down for about 4 hours post-treatment.
- Avoid Strenuous Activity: For 24 hours after the treatment, avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat (like saunas and hot tubs) to reduce the risk of bruising.
- Follow-Up Appointments: Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments to assess the results and make any necessary adjustments.
How to Handle Potential Side Effects?
During consultations, the practitioner also explains the potential effects of the procedure and how to manage them. These effects are a necessary outcome of the therapy and usually go away within a few days.
If you experience any unusual or severe side effects, such as difficulty breathing or swallowing, seek medical attention immediately.
