3 Steps to Safety

First When considering any cosmetic procedure follow AESTHETiKA’S 3 step guidance

Firstly, find out as much information as you can about the procedure

Do your homework about the procedure, read the literature about the treatment, look at before and after photos and talk to those who have had the treatment
Ensure that you know what the other treatment options are
Discuss your intention with friends and family
Know the risks; what are the side effects, possible complications and contraindications
What do you need to do before and after the treatment
Examine the cost implications and methods of payment

Ensure that the establishment you choose is registered with The Healthcare Commission to provide that treatment
Doctors and Nurses are the only people who should be giving you injections, ask who you will be seeing and what their qualifications are
A reputable clinic will offer you a Free Consultation
Take along a friend or family member with you
