Botox is one of the hottest
crazes of the 21st century. Doctors from around the globe are using
it for not only enhancing facial appearances but also to treat numerous health
conditions, ranging from excessive sweating to migraine pains to muscles
spasms.
If you are also planning to get
Botox shots for a cosmetic or non-cosmetic condition, it is important that you
get it administered by an experienced, board-certified physician with a
comprehensive knowledge of facial anatomy. So, the very first thing that you
need to do after deciding to get Botox treatment is to find out the best clinic
in the town offering the treatment.
Here are some simple steps that
you need to follow before finalizing on a clinic for Botox treatment:
Compile a list of clinics offering Botox in your area
The first thing that you need to
do when selecting a clinic is to make a list of all the clinics in your area
that offer Botox for treating your condition, be it facial wrinkles, excessive
sweating, migraine pain or muscle spasms. Use references as well as internet
research and local health magazines to find out some of the best clinics in the
town.
Prioritize your list
Once you have compiled a list of
clinics, the next step is prioritizing it. Clinics that have been personally
recommended by your friends and family should come at the top. Also order the
list based on the location of the office. The nearer the clinic the better it
is for you.
Visit the clinic’s official website
Check if the top 5 to 7 clinics
on your list have their official websites or not. Visit their websites and see
which doctors do they have, the Associations their doctors belong to and above
all the reviews of their past patients, if available.
Make a list of questions to ask from the clinics on your list
Educating yourself about the
procedure is the key to a successful treatment free of any unwanted side
effects. Do your home work and prepare a list of questions to be asked from the
clinic you call. Here are some of the questions that you can ask your doctors
or the representatives of the clinics you call.
·
Do your doctors have certifications in facial
anatomy?
·
How many years of experience do they have in
administering Botox?
·
How often do your doctors treat patients with
Botox?
·
Do you schedule a follow-up visit after
treatment?
·
Will you show me before and after pictures of
the patients your doctors have treated in the past?
·
Are there any side effects of Botox?
·
What sort of help will I get from the clinic if
I experience any side effects?
·
Who will bear the cost of treating serious side
effects?
Call top 3 to 5 clinics on the list and ask above questions
Once you have prepared the list
of questions, call top 3 to 5 clinics on the list and ask these questions.
Based on the answers you get, decide which clinic is the best. It is also
recommended to book consultations with doctors of shortlisted clinics and
discuss your concerns with them. The doctor who gives satisfactory answers to your
questions is probably the one you should finalize for the treatment.
Ask for references
It is also a good idea to ask the
doctors/clinics for references of a couple of patients they have treated in the
near past. Meet them and get first hand information about the clinic’s patient
handling, their doctors’ expertise and aftercare. You can also ask your
prospective clinics to show you before and after pictures of the patients they
have treated over the last couple of months to get a fair idea of how effective
their Botox treatment is.
