How To Choose The Right Injector

So, you’ve finally decided to look into cosmetic injections—like BOTOX® or dermal fillers—to refresh your appearance, but now you’re wondering how to choose your provider.

This is an important decision, and you’re right to take it seriously. Injectable treatments have very few complications when performed by a qualified, experienced provider, but in the hands of the wrong injector they can be unsafe and produce long-lasting negative results. To help you make an informed decision, we’re outlining some key points to consider when choosing the right injector for you.

 

Education and Training

When selecting your provider, always consider their credentials, as well as recent continuing medical education and training. Never select an injector based on price alone. If their prices seem low, there is likely a reason. At Clinic 805, all injectable treatments are performed by qualified Medical Aesthetic Nurses with years of clinical experience and training.

 

Physician Supervision 

Non-surgical injectable treatments must be provided under the supervision of a qualified physician. At Clinic 805, we have a team of Certified Plastic Surgeons and Medical Aesthetic Nurses who collaborate on the diagnosis and treatment of every patient’s concerns, and who are available should the patient experience an untoward response.

 

Experience

The amount of experience an injector has in performing the particular treatment you want is an important consideration. Selecting an established, experienced, successful clinic with a great reputation is also a good way to predict an amazing outcome. Bonus points if the clinic offers treatment modalities besides injectables—including laser treatments and cosmetic surgery—since this will ensure the provider is recommending the best treatments available to address your individual concerns and achieve your goals.

 

Communication and Trust

Finding an injector that you feel comfortable with and that you trust completely is one of the most important factors in selecting your provider. Prior to treatment, you should be offered a thorough consultation during which you are able to ask all of your questions and communicate your expectations. Ask to see before and after photos of actual patients, and be sure that you and your injector communicate about realistic results. You should never feel pressured to move forward with your treatment until you’re ready!
