What Should I Look for In an Injector?

In the fast-changing medical cosmetic world, there are so many injectors to choose from. So, how do I pick the right injector? Here are a few important factors to consider before booking an appointment with an aesthetic injector.

Experience

Before choosing an injector, it’s important to know they are experienced in the treatment you are interested in. This means that they not only can perform the treatment correctly but also that they perform it on a regular basis to know complications, risk factors, best practices, and more.

A good injector not only cares deeply about their patient, but also demonstrates knowledge, artistry, and precision. When it comes to injectables it’s not “one size fits all.” A good injector should customize each patient’s treatment plan. It is important that your injector knows the intricate anatomy of the face and how to manage complications. It is the injector’s job to inform you of potential risks and complications associated with injectable treatments.  A good injector will help guide you to the right treatment plan and isn’t afraid to say “no” to unnecessary injections.

Credentials

Another important factor to consider is your injector’s credentials. Are they legally equipped to provide this treatment? Do they have proof and evidence of their training available to you? Are they doing it within a medical facility to ensure that they have the necessary tools to provide treatment and address complications?

All of our injectable providers are either Nurse Practitioners or Physician Assistants that have trained extensively under the clinical director and founder at Spa Medical, Terri Harper, FNP-C. Terri has over 20 years of experience in the industry and is recognized nationally and internationally for her training courses. Our providers also work hard to keep up with the fast-changing medical cosmetic world by attending trainings, seminars, webinars, and inviting reps for educational events. What makes this field so fun is the continuous advancement and discovery of new techniques and products.

Reviews

One of the most important factors to consider? Reviews! According to a recent study, 79% of consumers say that they trust online reviews as much as a personal recommendation. Don’t skip over this important step that can provide you with valuable insight that could save you a costly treatment. If possible, make sure to look at reviews on the office as well as the provider you are interested in. Check out their website and social media for before and after photos. Do you like the “look” of the staff and patients that were treated in their before and after photos? Before and after pictures should set realistic expectations and help you understand the kind of results you might see from treatment with them.

In Conclusion

At Spa Medical, we go above and beyond to help our patients reach their goals.  If there is anything you don’t like about your Botox treatment or if you think it is inadequate, let us know because both of those things we can ‘fix’ with a free tweak! We guarantee great treatments, as much as humanly possible. Our goal is to make your appointment at YOUR convenience, not ours, even if that is the same day you called.

We will review injectable treatments in depth and answer any questions you may have about your treatment!

At Spa Medical, our goal is for you to feel confident and refreshed. The best compliment we can receive is when we hear that our patients look great, but people can’t exactly tell what they’ve had done. This means we’ve done our job to help their natural beauty shine through without overdoing it.
