Choosing A Kent Aesthetics Practitioner For Face And Lip Fillers

28-06-2024

Choosing the right aesthetic practitioner is one of the most important decisions you will make when considering face and lip fillers. With so many aesthetic clinics in Kent, knowing who to trust for your dermal fillers is difficult. In this beauty blog, our award-winning aesthetic experts share tips for choosing a Kent Aesthetics Practitioner for your cosmetic procedures.

Check Their Qualifications and Credentials

Start by checking the practitioner’s qualifications and credentials. Do your research into their certification: Did they attend physical courses for their specialised training or just online courses? Has the dermal filler practitioner taken a course here in the UK, or was it abroad? How much training have they had? Standards in training vary considerably, so you should consider all these factors carefully.

Our Founder and Celebrity Injector, Amish Patel, has extensive training with the industry’s best medical professionals and Harley Street cosmetic doctors. Amish is a healthcare professional and a respected aesthetics trainer at one of the UK’s leading academies based in London. These credentials and medical training ensure the practitioner has received the necessary training and meets the standards for performing facial and lip filler procedures while reducing potential risks.

Does The Kent Aesthetics Clinic Have Any Valuable Associations?

Alongside numerous awards and accolades, as a leading clinic in the South-East, we were also one of Save Face UK’s very first accredited clinics, and we remain ‘excellence’ rated.

Save Face is a national register of accredited practitioners who provide non-surgical cosmetic treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections and Dermal Fillers.

Save Face has Professional Standards Authority accreditation, recognised by the Government, The Department of Health, NHS England and The Care Quality Commission. Intrigue Cosmetic Clinic continues to embody an unwavering commitment to patient safety and best practices within the aesthetics industry.

What Is Their Experience?

Alongside their standards of training, their experience is a crucial factor to consider when choosing a practitioner. Experienced practitioners are more likely to encounter a wide range of clients and situations and have honed their skills accordingly.

Amish set up Intrigue Cosmetic Clinic in 2016, so he has a wealth of experience delivering aesthetic treatments. Enquire about their experience with injectable treatments to ascertain if they carry potential risks – putting your face in safe hands is imperative when choosing a Kent aesthetics practitioner for your cosmetic treatments.

Ask To See Before and After Photos

Request to see before and after photos of previous clients who have undergone facial and lip filler treatments with a qualified practitioner. Just because they have the qualifications, it doesn’t mean they will deliver the look that you desire. Looking through examples of dermal filler treatments will give you an idea of the results they are capable of achieving.

Look for natural-looking results that align with your dermal face filler goals. Looking at a visual representation of their work will help you assess their skill level. It’s also essential to verify that the photos are authentic and not digitally altered or even stolen (as we have experienced from unqualified practitioners passing off our work as their own on social media)

Look For Client Reviews and Testimonials

Look for reviews and testimonials from previous patients to get a sense of their experience with the practitioner. Online platforms such as Google and social media can provide valuable insights into the practitioner’s reputation and patient satisfaction. Read the positive reviews and note any bad reviews to comprehensively understand the practitioner’s skills, bedside manner, and overall patient care.

We are Customer Service winners in the What Clinic Awards year after year and have hundreds of glowing five-star reviews. We understand that you may have considered having medical procedures at our reputable clinic for some time and have undertaken lots of research, so you will always be satisfied with your dermal filler treatments or our gold standard of client care.

Always Have A Consultation

Always schedule a dermal filler consultation with the practitioner before deciding on any aesthetic treatments. This will allow you to discuss your procedure, goals, concerns, and expectations for the dermal filler treatments. During the consultation, pay particular attention to how the practitioner listens to your needs and addresses your questions. A good practitioner will take the time to understand your desired outcome and provide realistic expectations.

We are a reputable clinic delivering quality care and honest advice. While we have many clients based in Dartford, Gravesend, Meopham, Bromley, Medway, and Rochester, we also attract clients to our aesthetics clinic from as far as Scotland and Dubai!

Are You Happy With The Communication? Do You Trust Them?

Building a good rapport and feeling comfortable with your practitioner is essential. Open and honest communication is vital throughout the entire process. A skilled practitioner has a duty of care and should be able to explain the procedure in detail, including the risks and potential side effects, and ensure that you have a thorough understanding before moving forward. Trust your instincts when choosing a practitioner with whom you feel comfortable.

Safety And Hygiene Is A Priority

When choosing a practitioner for face and lip fillers, it is crucial to prioritise your safety. Look for a practitioner who follows strict safety protocols, including maintaining a clean and hygienic environment, using sterile equipment, and adhering to proper injection techniques. Ask about the type of fillers used and which brands of dermal filler injections they use.

Not all filler brands are equal, and Intrigue Cosmetic Clinic only use quality products with a good safety record, and those we know give excellent results. Low-cost cosmetic clinics are cutting corners at your expense, be it a lack of public liability insurance or protecting clients against risks by investing in a clean environment, adequate insurance or safe dermal filler aesthetics.

Do They Have Experience and Expertise?

Look for a practitioner working out of a medical environment. They should have extensive experience and expertise performing face and lip filler procedures. A skilled practitioner will deeply understand facial anatomy, which is crucial for achieving natural-looking results. Be wary of non-medical professionals who are not bound by the same regulatory body.

Watch Out For Low Prices & Dermal Filler Deals 

While cost should not be the sole determining factor, it is essential to consider the pricing structure of the practitioner. Be wary of significantly lower prices for your aesthetic procedure. Low prices may indicate the use of lower-quality fillers or lack of insurance cover and experience. Focus instead on finding a practitioner who offers competitive prices while maintaining the highest level of quality and safety.

Remember, you are paying for the skill, not just the MLS of filler. Safety and quality come at a price. When it comes to having to dissolve botched fillers as a result of poor injectors, cutting corners also comes at the cost of your face and looks.
