During a pre-treatment consultation, you will be asked about your expectations for the result, your medical history reviewed and a course of treatment recommended. During this consultation, the discussion of your treatment and costing will be mentioned.

Your skin tone, appearance and face will be examined.

The points will be made on your face as a mark for the injection site.

The injection sites will also be cleansed with an antibacterial agent to make more sensitive patients comfortable.

Anaesthetising will be done by using a cold instrument to chill the skin, inject local anaesthesia, or ointment to numb the skin. The filler itself may also contain an anaesthetic agent to eliminate pain.
