Hence, when it comes to choosing, the biggest factor is to consider what is the purpose behind your visit to the clinic.

Find a well-established and regulated clinic

It is often witnessed nowadays that several beauty salons and non-medical clinics have started to administer cosmetic procedures such as botox, filler or thread. Even though aesthetics treatments seems easy, there is always a risk when it comes to injectables.

Botox, filler and thread are considered medicine or medical-related substance, they are under control and regulation by governmental body such as FDA (in the US), and HSA (in Singapore).

What this means is that instead of getting your aesthetic treatment from an amateur, you should choose a clinic where medical professionals administer procedures are registered with Medical Council. In Singapore, you may check the qualification of the doctor here

Advantages of choosing a well-established and regulated clinic

Below are a few reasons why it is advantageous to choose an established and regulated clinic:

You would receive standardised care in an established clinic. Particularly in the case of more intense treatments that involve downtime or potential complications, it becomes extremely crucial to get proper follow up and post treatment care.
No one wants things to go wrong, but sometimes aesthetic treatments do present difficulties, or unwanted side effects. Professionals have in-depth knowledge and information that prepares them for such contingencies. A registered and licensed professional would be able to tell if you are having an ordinary reaction or do you require immediate medical attention. With a professional, you don’t have to worry about such emergencies, and you are in safe hands.
The non-medical saloon is often ill-equipped to provide high-quality product or treatments. In their attempt to offer you the cheapest treatment on the market, they often make compromises that they shouldn’t, which may jeopardise your treatment quality. If your priority is to get the best possible results from your treatment then you shouldn’t take the risk of getting it done from just anywhere. You must look for a well-established clinic that follows all the safety protocols and deliver consistent results.

Receive treatment locally may be a better option

The idea of getting a nice change of scenery, while you are getting a nice makeover of yourself, could be quite tempting. But often not everything is as rosy as it seems. Especially when it comes to getting an aesthetic treatment abroad, things are often quite different from what you have imagined.

There are a host of things that you should take into account before taking a flight to any of the heavily marketed beauty destinations around the globe. Particularly, if you are planning to undergo a complex cosmetic procedure or hair transplant, then going abroad may not be a prudent choice. How so? Well, consider this-

Post-treatment care and attention

Many complex cosmetic procedures require robust aftercare. Hence, you shouldn’t jeopardise your health and safety during the recovery phase by undergoing complex procedures overseas. Especially if you are travelling alone, you wouldn’t want to get stuck in a situation where you are vulnerable. Moreover, you may also feel inconvenience and expensive while staying abroad for a much longer duration.

Language barrier

If you are not able to communicate your requirements properly to the practitioner, you won’t be able to blame them if anything goes haywire afterwards. Similarly, people who are in charge of your pre and post-treatment care should also be able to understand your questions and provide answers in a language that you would understand.

Follow up issues

If you choose to get the procedure or hair transplant done abroad but continue the follow up back in your residing country, there could be a gap within the equipment and skills of foreign and local practitioners. Your local doctor may not familiar with the machine or products being used in overseas.

Conclusion

Hopefully, you will find the above tips useful in choosing the best clinic for your aesthetic treatment.

Receiving treatment locally, in a well-established clinic and from a qualified and licensed professional medical doctor is your best bet to ensure that you would get nothing but the best, and more importantly safe aesthetic treatment.
