Choosing the right Botox Doctor

Choosing the right Botox Doctor

If you have decided to go for your first ever Cheshire Botox treatment, you must be a bit sceptical about how to identify the correct doctor. The following paragraphs will provide you some guidelines on how to identify a qualified doctor in Cheshire to get your Botox treatment done.

The cosmetic physician should be qualified as a GP with MRCGP and should be a specialist in Cosmetic Medicine, Dermatology, and Minor Surgery and should be a member of the British Association of Cosmetic Doctors.

Non surgical cosmetic treatment is often performed outside the hospital in an office-based surgical facility. Botox Cheshire , of course, doesn't need to be performed in a hospital, but certain considerations should be made. Wherever the treatment is to be performed, selected cosmetic physicians should have appropriate equipment and the clinic should be located in a Medical facility to perform the cosmetic treatment in an acute care hospital.

Published data show that accredited office-based facilities have a BOTOX safety record comparable to that of hospital ambulatory surgery settings. Ambulatory or office-based facilities should be accredited by a nationally recognised accrediting agency and should be registered at the Care Quality Commission.

Candidates for non surgical cosmetic treatment should be in good physical health and must be honest with their cosmetic physician about any drugs they are taking. The medical history should include hormones (oral contraceptives and estrogen replacement) and even aspirin, vitamins, and herbal medications since these substances can interfere with blood clotting or interact with medications used during surgery and could increase surgical risk.

Before the Botox treatment, patients should be educated about all aspects of the planned treatment, including whether to discontinue certain medications and stop smoking. Botox aftercare should be thoroughly discussed with the cosmetic physician, as treatment is not truly over until the patient is ambulatory and has returned to a relatively normal routine.

There are numerous Cheshire Botox clinics; however you will need to do some research before you decide as to which cosmetic physician you will consult for treatment. Some Cheshire Botox clinics offer free consultation before your Botox treatment and this will provide you an opportunity to assess the safety of the facility and get to know whether the cosmetic physician is a well qualified person with experience in performing Botox treatments.

You can also ask your cosmetic physician the following questions to clear your doubts on Botox treatments:

Are you licensed to administer Botox?

How often do you perform Botox treatments?

Is this the best procedure for what I want accomplished?

What procedures might complement these Botox treatments?

Are there any promotions going on now or in the near future that could benefit me?

Will you walk me through what the procedure day will look like?

If you feel it's a good fit, you may set up an appointment for your procedures, sometimes as early as that very day.

Should your cosmetic physician have a web site, it is best to go through the testimonies and read about the qualifications that cosmetic physician has.
