What To Expect During a Skin Tightening Consultation With a Licensed Aesthetician

A skin tightening procedure in Corpus Christi, TX, from Nicole Williams, LE of Padre Dermatology, can smooth your skin and make it firmer, ultimately reversing the hands of time a bit. If you've never had it done in the past, you may wonder what to expect at your first appointment.

Reviewing Your Medical History

Though our treatments are non-invasive, they can still cause side effects, especially in those who are at risk. That's why our skilled Corpus Christi, TX, provider will first want to gather information about any medical conditions you have and any medications you take.

We'll consider this information throughout any diagnostics and when we craft your treatment plan.

Asking About Your Concerns

The next part of the visit will be conducted in our office.

We'll ask you what bothers you most about your skin, and we'll want to know about any skin issues you have.

Evaluating Your Skin

Once our aesthetician has a thorough understanding of your issues, you'll undergo a skin examination. We will visually assess your skin and may perform a palpation. We'll look for any skin conditions that could interfere with your treatment. This evaluation also helps us better understand what treatment will most effectively address the wrinkling or sagging. In some cases, that may mean a skin tightening treatment like radiofrequency skin tightening.

Explaining Your Treatment Options

You may have multiple options, depending on your goals, skin condition, and the severity of your problem. Or, you may only have one solution. At this point, we'll explain each option and help you decide on the right one for you. On the other hand, if you only have one choice, we'll go into detail about how it works, how to prepare, and what to expect so you can decide if it's right for you.

Preparing You for the Results

We'll let you know what to expect, such as any possible side effects to look out for. We also want you to know the results you can anticipate since they're not comparable to surgical ones.

We'll let you know what you can do to reduce any discomfort as well. 

Scheduling Your Treatment

Sometimes, we can perform the treatment on the same day you arrive. However, we may need to have you schedule a return visit to complete it if you need to stop any medications first. 

When you schedule a consultation with Nicole Williams, LE of Padre Dermatology, serving Corpus Christi, TX, and the nearby region, you may sometimes receive your treatment that day but don't be disappointed if that's not possible. Also, know that we'll want a thorough evaluation of your skin.
