What to Expect During Your Consultation With Cosmetic nURSE mATILDA: A Step-by-Step Guide
Booking a consultation with Cosmetic Nurse Matilda is an exciting first step toward enhancing your natural beauty. Whether you're looking to smooth out wrinkles, add volume to your face, or improve your skin’s health, a consultation is an essential part of creating a treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs and goals.
But what exactly happens during a consultation, and what can you expect? Let me walk you through the process.
Step 1: Thorough Facial Assessment
Your consultation begins with a thorough facial assessment. I take my time to understand the unique features of your face, the structure of your skin, and the areas you're concerned about.
This is more than just a quick glance—I will analyse factors like skin elasticity, facial symmetry, muscle movement, and skin tone. This in-depth approach helps me determine where treatments could be most effective for you.
Step 2: Medical and Aesthetic History
Next, we’ll go over your medical and aesthetic history. I want to know if you have any previous cosmetic treatments, whether you've had reactions to products or treatments in the past, and any underlying health conditions that may influence treatment options.
Your well-being is always my top priority, and this conversation allows me to customise your treatment plan based on your unique health needs.
We'll also discuss any medications you’re currently taking, as some medications can impact certain treatments.
The goal is to ensure the plan we create is safe, effective, and in your best interest.
Step 3: Discussing Your Goals and Concerns
At this point, I’ll ask you what your main goals are. Are you interested in reducing wrinkles, restoring volume, brightening your complexion, or something else entirely? Are there particular concerns, like fine lines, pigmentation, or acne scarring, that you’d like to address?
I always encourage my clients to be as open and honest as possible during this discussion. The more I know about what you're looking for and any worries you might have, the better I can help you achieve your desired results.
Step 4: Current Skincare Routine
We’ll take a close look at your current skincare routine to evaluate what products you’re using and how they might be impacting your skin. Whether you’re using high-end skincare or supermarket products, we’ll discuss how your routine is working for you and where adjustments might be needed. A lot of clients don't realise that certain ingredients or methods can enhance—or hinder—the results of cosmetic treatments.
If necessary, I will recommend a few changes to optimise your skin health before, during, and after treatment. In many cases, we can incorporate small tweaks into your routine that can have a big impact on your results.
Step 5: Creating Your Customised 6-12 Month Plan
Once we’ve discussed your concerns and goals, we’ll work together to create a comprehensive plan that suits your unique needs, budget, and lifestyle. This plan will span anywhere from 6 to 12 months, depending on your goals. You’ll walk away with a clear understanding of the treatments recommended, the timeline for achieving the best results, and how often you should come in for follow-up treatments.
We’ll also talk about how to maintain your results long-term, from skincare products to touch-up treatments. The goal is to give you sustainable, long-lasting beauty, not just a quick fix. Whether you prefer monthly, quarterly, or bi-annual appointments, we’ll develop a plan that fits your schedule and ensures you're always feeling your best.
Step 6: No Pressure, No Obligation
One of the things I pride myself on is creating a relaxed, no-pressure environment. Your consultation is entirely obligation-free. You won’t be asked to commit to anything during this initial meeting. I believe that understanding your options, having the chance to ask questions, and feeling fully comfortable with the process is key before making any decisions.
I’m here to educate you on why certain concerns are happening and how we can address them in a way that feels right for you. This is all about creating a personalised treatment plan that aligns with what you want—not about pushing you into something you're not ready for.
Step 7: Educating You for Long-Term Success
Education is at the heart of my approach. I believe in empowering my clients to make informed decisions, not only about treatments but also about how they can maintain and enhance their results at home.
During your consultation, I’ll explain why certain issues, like wrinkles or sagging skin, are occurring, and we’ll discuss how our treatments can work to both address these concerns and maintain your results over time.
A consultation is your chance to ask questions, get personalised advice, and truly understand how various treatments can benefit you. I aim to provide a safe space where we can openly discuss your beauty goals without pressure or obligation.
By the end of your consultation, you'll have a roadmap for your aesthetic journey, with clear steps to help you achieve the glowing, confident look you’ve always wanted.
You’ll also receive a detailed summary of everything we discussed, including recommended treatments, potential dates, times, and costs for the next 6-12 months, ensuring it aligns with your needs. The beauty of a long-term treatment plan is that it can be fully personalised to fit your budget and lifestyle.
