If you’ve been thinking about getting injectables such as Botox®, Dysport®, or dermal fillers, you might be wondering what happens during your first consultation. Even if you’ve spent hours researching treatments online, nothing compares to sitting down with an experienced injector who can guide you through the process, answer your questions, and help you feel completely comfortable.
At Aesthetics at WomanCare MedSpa, our goal is to make your first injectable consultation feel relaxed, personalized, and empowering. We take time to understand your goals, evaluate your unique facial features, and recommend the safest, most effective treatment plan for you. We welcome clients from Arlington Heights, Palatine, Buffalo Grove, Schaumburg, Mount Prospect, and surrounding communities, and we’re committed to ensuring every person feels informed and confident before beginning their aesthetic journey.
If you’re preparing for your first visit, here’s a detailed look at what you can expect from start to finish.
Getting to Know You and Your Goals
Your consultation begins with a warm welcome and a conversation about what brings you in. Whether you’re looking to soften fine lines, restore volume, enhance facial balance, or simply explore your options, this initial discussion is an essential step.
Many clients come in with a specific treatment in mind, while others are unsure but ready to improve something about their appearance. There is no right or wrong starting point. During this conversation, you’ll be encouraged to share your aesthetic goals, concerns, and any areas you’d like to improve.
This part of the consultation helps your injector understand your goals, your comfort level with injectables, and the type of results that feel natural to you. We believe in open, honest communication and make sure you never feel rushed or pressured into making a decision.
Reviewing Your Medical History and Safety Considerations
Injectables are extremely safe when performed by trained medical professionals, but like any procedure, they require a review of your medical history. During your consultation, your injector will ask about:
-
Any medical conditions
-
Past surgeries or procedures
-
Current medications or supplements
-
Allergies
-
Previous experience with injectables
-
Lifestyle factors that could affect treatment
This step ensures that your treatment plan is tailored not just to your appearance, but to your health and safety. At Aesthetics at WomanCare MedSpa, we take safety seriously and only recommend treatments that are appropriate for your unique situation.
Facial Assessment and Personalized Analysis
This is one of the most important parts of the consultation. Your injector will examine your facial anatomy, expression patterns, and the way your skin behaves at rest and in motion. This assessment allows us to identify the areas where injectables can create the most natural, harmonious improvements.
Depending on your goals, your injector may evaluate areas such as:
-
Forehead lines
-
Frown lines (the “11s”)
-
Crow’s feet
-
Smile lines
-
Lip structure and symmetry
-
Cheek volume
-
Jawline definition
-
Under-eye hollowness
This is where our expertise shines. Understanding facial proportions, muscle activity, and aging patterns allows us to design a customized treatment plan that fits your features rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Learning About Your Injectable Options
Once your facial assessment is complete, you’ll learn about the treatments that can help you reach your goals. This may include neuromodulators like Botox® or Dysport®, dermal fillers, biostimulators, or a combination of treatments depending on what you want to achieve.
Your injector will explain:
-
How each treatment works
-
What the procedure feels like
-
How long results last
-
Expected downtime
-
What kind of results you can expect
-
How treatments can be paired for enhanced outcomes
This is your opportunity to ask questions — and we encourage it. Understanding your options helps you make the best decision for your confidence, comfort, and long-term satisfaction.
Creating a Personalized Treatment Plan
Once you’ve explored your options, your provider will design a treatment plan tailored specifically to your goals. This may include addressing one area immediately or creating a long-term plan for gradual enhancements. Every recommendation is based on achieving natural-looking results that complement your features and fit your lifestyle.
Your plan may include:
-
Recommended injectables for each area
-
Estimated units or syringes
-
Treatment timelines
-
Maintenance schedules
-
Combination treatments if beneficial
We always take a conservative approach, especially if you are new to injectables. Enhancing your features subtly and naturally is our top priority.
Discussing Pricing, Expectations, and Results
Your consultation also includes a clear explanation of pricing so you know exactly what to expect. There are no surprises, and we’re always transparent about the cost of each treatment and how long results typically last.
During this time, we’ll also discuss what results will look like and when you’ll see them. Some injectables show immediate improvement, while others take several days or weeks to fully develop. If you have an upcoming event, trip, or milestone, we will help you time your treatments accordingly.
What Happens If You Want Treatment the Same Day
Many clients choose to proceed with treatment immediately after their consultation, while others prefer to schedule their first appointment for another day. Both options are perfectly fine, and you’re never pressured to decide on the spot.
If you choose same-day treatment, we will review aftercare instructions with you so you know exactly how to support your results at home. Treatments are usually quick, comfortable, and require little to no downtime, making them easy to fit into your schedule.
What to Expect After Your Consultation
After your visit, you’ll leave feeling informed, supported, and excited about your aesthetic journey. You’ll also receive personalized aftercare guidelines if you had a treatment during your appointment.
Even if you decide to wait before scheduling your injectable treatment, your customized plan remains on file so you can return whenever you’re ready.
Our team is always here to answer questions and provide guidance even after your consultation is over. We pride ourselves on building long-term relationships with our clients and helping them feel confident at every stage of their aesthetic journey.
