New Patient Consultations
Patients can have a stand alone consultation appointment prior to the treatment. We do encourage patients to ask us as many questions as possible in the consultation to ensure you fully understand the benefits and risks of the treatment so you can make an informed decision. Samantha Thomas Aesthetics Ltd offer a range of treatments that all qualify for a complimentary consultation.
New patients may have their consultation and treatment on the same day if the patient and practitioner deem suitable even though a cooling off period is recommended on the first visit.
