The Skin Consultation
A consultation with Dr Harriet in London covers your medical history, your facial anatomy and what you actually want to change, and produces a personalised treatment plan rather than a sales pitch.
The short answer
What the consultation covers
A thorough consultation is essential before any treatment. It is where Dr Harriet assesses your medical history, your facial anatomy and your aesthetic goals, and builds a personalised treatment plan tailored to you.
It is also where she tells you if you do not need treatment yet, or if what you want is not achievable with injectables. Drawing on many years as a GP, that honesty is part of what patients come to her for. Some treatments can be carried out on the same day, while others may require a further appointment.

What people come in about
Most patients arrive knowing what bothers them rather than which treatment fixes it. Working that out is what the consultation is for.

Patient journey
What to expect at your first appointment
Consultation & preparation
Come with a clean face where possible and bring a list of any medication and supplements you take. Note down what bothers you and any questions you want to ask, and bring details of any previous aesthetic treatment including what was used and when.
During treatment
Aftercare
You leave with a personalised treatment plan and a clear idea of cost. Where treatment goes ahead on the day, you will be given treatment-specific aftercare. Where it does not, there is no obligation to proceed and you can get in touch when you are ready.
Consultation and deposit
The £50 deposit is taken when you book and comes off the cost of your treatment. Treatment costs are confirmed at the consultation itself, and there is never an obligation to proceed on the day.
Booking
Prices are reviewed periodically. All treatment follows a face-to-face consultation and only goes ahead where it is clinically appropriate. Get in touch with the clinic as early as you can if you need to move or cancel your appointment.
Boundaries of practice
What's not treated
Good practice means saying no when indicated:
- Under 18 years of age
- Lack of capacity to give informed consent
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding, which rules out most injectable treatments
- Expectations that cannot be met safely with non-surgical treatment
