The Process
Your visit to The Hadleigh Clinic
- Your initial visit to The Hadleigh Clinic begins with a FREE, no obligation consultation.
- On arrival at the clinic you will be asked to complete a confidential patient registration/medical records form.
- Your free consultation appointment typically lasts for around 30 minutes.
- For injectable and surgical procedures, your consultation and treatment will be carried out by our Specialist Cosmetic Doctor.
- For laser, dermaroller and skin Care, your consultation and treatment will be carried out by one of our Specialist Aesthetic Nurses.
At The Hadleigh Clinic we can assure you that you are in safe hands. You will only be seen by suitably qualified medical professionals with a vast experience in medical aesthetic treatments. We do not believe in sales representatives at any of our clinics.
Your consultation
- Your consultation will begin by listening to and understanding your concerns and requirements and discussing how best we can meet and exceed your expectations.
- We will clearly outline the various treatment options available, together with the benefits and any potential risks of each treatment.
- Any questions you have about the process or treatment will be answered honestly so together we decide on the most appropriate treatment for you.
- Any necessary pre and post treatment care will also be explained in detail.
- There is no obligation to book a treatment with us after your consultation as the consultation is entirely complimentary.
- If however, you do wish to book a treatment this can be done for you after your consultation or at a later date via phone or e-mail.
We appreciate that many of our patients have very busy schedules or travel a significant distance to attend our clinics. It is therefore sometimes possible for certain procedures e.g. Botox® and Filler treatments to be carried out immediately after your consultation. If this is something you may be interested in please discuss this with our staff when booking your initial consultation so we can adjust your appointment time accordingly.
Your Treatment
- Prior to your treatment you will be provided with a detailed consent form which you will be asked to read and sign.
- You will also have the opportunity to ask the doctor any other questions you have regarding the treatment.
- After the treatment, post care products e.g. camouflage make up, may be applied if appropriate, depending on the treatment you have had.
Aftercare advice for Aqualyx treatments
- Do not apply cosmetics to the treated area up to 12 hours after the treatment
- Avoid all sources of heat and radiation (sunlight, saunas etc)
- Abstain from demanding physical exercise for 7 days
- Should you have any concerns just ask the doctor
Follow up and future appointments
- On average you will need between 3-5 treatments at 3-4 weekly intervals, all of which will be advised during your free consultation
For procedures which may require repeat treatments throughout the year we are happy to set up a text or e-mail reminder service to let you know when your next treatment is due.
