Before You Book a Skin Treatment – Read This First

🧴  “Before You Book a Skin Treatment – Read This First”

By Dr. Mohd Rizwan Khan

Dr. Rizwan’s Skin, Cosmetic & Laser Clinic, Shahjahanpur


Let’s be honest—

Aaj kal har doosra ad ya reel keh raha hai:

“Laser kara lo!”

“Hydrafacial le lo!”

“Peel se instant glow!”


Tempting, right?

But before you click “Book Now”, take 5 minutes and read this blog.


Because skin treatment isn’t like ordering pizza.

Your skin deserves a little planning and smart decision-making.


✅ 1. Understand Your Real Skin Concern



Ask yourself:

• Do I have acne or just a few random breakouts?

• Is it tanning, pigmentation, or both?

• Is this hairfall just seasonal or something more?

• Do I want glow for a function or actual skin repair?


🧠 Why this matters:

Right diagnosis = Right treatment.

Guessing = Wasting money and time.


✅ 2. Don’t Copy Others’ Results


Just because your friend got glowing skin after a peel…

…doesn’t mean the same peel will work on you.


Skin type, skin tone, medical history, lifestyle – all are different.


👨‍⚕️ A proper consultation helps personalize your plan.


✅ 3. Check If You’re Ready for Downtime



Some treatments like:

Chemical peels

Laser resurfacing

Microneedling


…can cause temporary redness, peeling, or sun sensitivity.


📅 Ask:

• “Doctor, koi downtime hoga kya?”

• “Office ja sakta hoon next day?”

• “Shaadi attend karni hai – safe hoga kya?”


✅ 4. Always Ask for a Patch Test (if needed)


For treatments involving:

Hair dyes

Bleaches

New creams

Laser


Always ask:


“Kya patch test zaroori hai?”


It prevents allergic reactions and saves you from skin disasters.


✅ 5. Don’t Fall for Package Deals Without Knowing What’s Inside



“Sir, ₹5000 mein 5 treatments!”


Sounds amazing.

But ask:

Kya-kya included hai?

Skin analysis hui?

Will the same person treat every time?


At Dr. Rizwan’s Clinic, we always explain what you’re paying for.


✅ 6. Be Honest with Your Doctor


Tell your doctor:

• About your past skin issues

• If you’re on periods, pregnant, or breastfeeding

• If you’ve used steroids, home remedies, or parlour facials


This helps us plan your treatment safely.


✅ 7. Don’t Expect “One Sitting Magic”



No treatment in the world gives lifetime glow in one session.


Skin is an organ, not a wall to repaint.


Most skin issues need:

• Multiple sittings

• Product support at home

• Small lifestyle changes


🗓️ So always ask: “Total kitne sessions lagenge?”


✅ 8. Be Clear About Your Budget


Be open about your budget.

Skin doctors are here to help – not to loot you.


Tell us:


“Doctor, mujhe affordable treatment chahiye.”

“Main har month ₹___ tak manage kar sakta hoon.”


At our clinic, we have options for every budget – with results that suit you.


✅ 9. Avoid DIY Right Before Appointment


Please don’t:

• Do home scrubs

• Apply haldi, lemon, or toothpaste

• Try parlour bleach


…right before a professional treatment.


It can cause burns or irritation, making treatment unsafe or delayed.


✅ 10. Aftercare Is as Important as Treatment


No matter how expensive the treatment is,

If you don’t follow proper aftercare –

results won’t last.


Ask clearly:

• “Kya lagana hai baad mein?”

• “Sun exposure avoid karna hoga kya?”

• “Follow-up kab hoga?”


🧑‍⚕️ Dr. Rizwan’s Advice:


Skin treatment is not a shortcut.

It’s a mix of:

• Correct diagnosis

• Scientific technique

• Your consistency

• And trust between doctor & patient


So, before you spend on treatments…

Spend 15 minutes in consultation.

It saves time, money, and prevents regrets.
