You don’t need to know the name of a treatment to begin. Start with what you’ve noticed, what you already do, and what you’re curious about.
Take stock of your routine.
Make a simple list of the skincare products you use and how often you reach for them. Include what you like about your routine and what feels confusing or difficult to keep up with.
Bring the list to your consultation. It gives the conversation a practical starting point.
Write down your questions.
Ask who will provide your care and how they assess whether a treatment is appropriate. If an option is proposed, ask about the alternatives, limitations, costs and follow-up.
“What do I need to understand
before I make a decision?”
It is reasonable to take time to think about the answers. You can come to a consultation simply to learn.
Keep the next step simple.
Before you leave, ask what happens next and who to contact with further questions. If preparation or aftercare is needed, get the practice’s specific guidance in writing.
