Questions that tell you a lot
How a provider answers matters as much as what they say.
- Who performs this, and what is their license?
- How were they trained for this treatment?
- What device or product is it, specifically?
- What does a series involve?
- What aftercare do I need?
- What happens if something goes wrong?
- What is the total cost before I start?
Before you go
Take ten minutes to jot down a few things. It saves time and helps you get clear answers.
- What you would like to change or ask about.
- Your medical history and current medications.
- Any reactions you have had to skin products or treatments.
- The questions you want answered.
At the end of the consultation, write down what was recommended, the number of sessions and the total cost.
Reasons to wait
It is your face, your skin and your money. You can leave a consultation without booking, and you can come back later.
Slow down if there is pressure to book the same day, if no one offers a proper consultation, if you get vague answers about who will perform the treatment, or if the provider will not give you the cost in writing. To look up a license, ask for the person's full name and license type, then search the Alaska state board for that profession.
