When we might recommend neither treatment

  • Your medical history or current skin condition makes treatment unsafe.
  • Your goals would be better served by delaying treatment, using skincare first, or seeking medical diagnosis.
  • The expected improvement is unlikely to justify the risk, downtime or cost.

What to ask at consultation

  • Which concern are we treating: skin quality, volume, laxity, texture or muscle activity?
  • What are the realistic benefits and limitations for my anatomy or skin type?
  • What are the main risks, downtime and aftercare requirements?
  • How many sessions might be needed and when would we review progress?

FAQs

Are these weight-loss treatments?

No. They are body-contouring treatments for suitable patients and are not substitutes for weight management.
