Regulations surrounding the safety of aesthetic treatments in the UK are extremely lax and for this reason, having responsible injectors that patients can trust in the industry is key. Dermal filler treatments are injectable procedures which can be dangerous for patients if administered by someone with little experience or anatomical knowledge. At Aspir8 we belief in responsible injecting that patients can trust. So, what makes a responsible injector?
Dermal Filler Knowledge and Experience
A medical background and qualifications are key when it comes to being able to administer dermal fillers responsibly. A good injector will have a breadth of anatomical knowledge and understanding, have an excellent bedside manner and also understand what to do if things go wrong. Furthermore, training with other experts and building experience in aesthetic treatments will also reduce risk to patients and enable you to provide effective results.
Correct Dermal Filler Placement
The face is a complex structure and correct dermal filler placement is therefore paramount. Incorrect placement can cause serious side effects for patients such as vascular occlusion which can lead to skin necrosis and even blindness. Injecting into specific facial points also means more effective, natural looking results which, in turn, equals happier patients.
Patient Care
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments and, just like with any medical procedure, patient care is super important. Treatments can often be a daunting experience so ensuring time is spent on education is key. Explaining aftercare and being available for reviews and advice is also all part of being a responsible injector. In some cases, patients expectations can’t be met with injectables. In these instances, this should be communicated effectively. Furthermore, signs of body dysmorphia should be taken seriously. In some cases, patients should be advised against a procedure
