Consultation
Understand first. Treat with intention.
A consultation with Dr. Lancho is designed to answer a more useful question than “Which treatment should I book?” It is designed to clarify what is actually contributing to your concern, what can reasonably be improved, which options make sense and which treatments may be unnecessary.
What it's for
You do not need to arrive knowing which treatment you want.
The consultation is the place to discuss the concern itself: what has changed, what matters to you, what you have tried before, and what kind of result you consider worthwhile. From there, the conversation can move from your observation to a clinical strategy.
What Dr. Lancho evaluates
- — Pigmentation and uneven tone
- — Inflammation and redness
- — Texture and skin quality
- — Movement-related changes
- — Firmness and laxity
- — Volume and contour
- — Facial structure and proportion
- — Previous aesthetic treatment
- — Your priorities, tolerance for recovery and long-term expectations
What you should understand before deciding
- — Why a treatment is being recommended
- — What component it is intended to improve
- — What it cannot correct
- — What alternatives exist
- — What trade-offs, recovery and risks should be considered
- — Whether treatment should happen now at all
The process
The treatment begins before the procedure.
- 01Before your visitArrive prepared to discuss the concern you want assessed, relevant history and what you hope to improve.
- 02ConsultationBegins with your own description of what you are seeing. The goal is to define the problem accurately enough to make a useful treatment decision — not to choose a treatment as quickly as possible.
- 03AssessmentSkin quality, tone, texture, pigment, vascular features, laxity, proportions, volume and previous treatment effects, depending on the concern.
- 04Clinical analysisA single complaint may contain several different treatment targets. This is where clinical reasoning replaces a generic treatment menu.
- 05Treatment strategyIf one modality can appropriately address the concern, one may be enough. If several biological components need different approaches, treatment may be combined or staged.
- 06Next stepsResponse, healing and evolving priorities inform what happens after: continue, adjust, wait, or stop.
