5 Questions To Ask Your Aesthetic Nurse Injector

One of the first questions clients often ask when considering botox, dermal fillers, or other injectable treatments is, "How much do you charge per unit?" 

We get it - cost is an important factor to consider when investing in your appearance. But this is your face! Will the small savings be worth it in the end?

We believe an informed decision is the best decision.

In this blog, we will share 5 questions you should ask your aesthetic injector to help you make an educated decision about your cosmetic procedure.

1. Can We Do a Consultation?

Our nurse injector, Carissa at  Carissa-Lynn Medical Aesthetics, recommends that a consultation be the first step in any cosmetic procedure. We offer complimentary consultations to all new patients. You can either book the consultation only or the consultation and treatment if you desire to have treatment sooner than later.

During the consultation process, Carissa will ask about your concerns, your goals, assess your facial anatomy and skin type, and discuss potential treatment options. 

She will create a personalized plan based on your unique features to help you achieve the results you're after. 

Instead of focusing on one area of concern– she'll look at the bigger picture and make recommendations on facial harmonization, from softening lines to restoring volume and balancing your profile. This often leads to much more of a natural-looking result overall!

2. What Products Do You Use?

Knowing what brands and types of injectable products your cosmetic injector uses is important. Carissa-Lynn Medical Aesthetics uses only the highest-quality products, such as BOTOX®, Dysport®, Juvederm™, Teosyal™, Revanesse™, and SkinVIVE by Juvederm™.

These well-known products are safe and effective and with the right provider can deliver natural-looking results. We like to work with a variety of products because every face is unique and may require different solutions.

3. What Training Do You Have?

As a client, you want to know that your cosmetic injector is experienced and knowledgeable in their field.

Ask about their training and education:

  • How long have they been practicing? 

  • What certifications do they hold? 

  • Do they attend conferences, workshops, or courses to stay updated on the latest techniques and advancements in cosmetic injections?

Carissa-Lynn has over 12 years of experience as an RN in Alberta and has been performing medical aesthetics since 2016. She is committed to staying up-to-date on the latest techniques and advancements in the industry, so she constantly pursues further education to give you the highest-quality care.

4. How Much Experience Do You Have Treating That Area?

Each area of the face requires a different injection technique and approach. It's essential to know that your injector has experience and expertise in treating the specific areas you are interested in.

Ask about their experience with specific treatments such as the delicate area of tear trough with filler or if they have experience with treating all areas of the face with neuromodulators. Reviews and before & after photos can also give you an idea of their skills and results.

Carissa maintains ethical treatment decisions and treats each session with care to bring out your natural beauty while keeping you safe. And she's not afraid to say no! If she thinks a treatment isn't right for you, she'll honestly advise against it. 

Her priority is to preserve and elevate your natural beauty so you can feel your absolute best.

5. What Happens if There's a Complication?

While cosmetic procedures are generally safe, they do come with potential risks and side effects. It's essential to know that your injector has a protocol in case of a complication or adverse reaction.

Here at The Beauty Block, client safety is our top priority. Carissa-Lynn has an extensive knowledge base on potential complications and knows how to handle them. She will explain the potential risks and complications before the procedure and will make sure you feel comfortable before moving forward.
