✨ Preparing for Your First Aesthetic Treatment
At Verve, with our clinics in Belfast and Bangor, we understand that your first aesthetic treatment can feel both exciting and a little nerve-wracking. Whether you’re considering anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers skin rejuvenation or another of our advanced medical aesthetic treatments, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
To help you feel confident and prepared, here’s everything you need to know before your first visit.
✨Do Your Research – But Don’t Overwhelm Yourself
Aesthetic treatments can do wonders for your confidence, but it’s important to know what you’re signing up for. Start by having a look through our website to explore the range of treatments we offer and get a feel for what might be right for you. Still unsure? That’s completely normal. At Verve, we never rush decisions - that’s why every new patient starts with a comprehensive consultation.
✨Book a Consultation First
Your initial consultation is a key part of the process. This is your time to talk to one of our experienced aesthetic practitioners or Dr Mark about your concerns, your goals and your medical history. We’ll assess your skin, answer your questions honestly and create a tailored treatment plan that suits your needs and lifestyle. At Verve, we prioritise natural-looking results - think refreshed, not “overdone.”
✨Common Questions From First-Time Patients
💫Will it hurt? Most of our treatments involve minimal discomfort - we use advanced techniques, medical-grade numbing agents where appropriate, and always talk you through what to expect.
💫Will I look fake or frozen? This is a very common concern, and we hear it a lot - especially from first-time patients. Our approach is always subtle and natural. You’ll still look like you - just refreshed, rested, and confident.
💫How soon will I see results? This depends on the treatment. Some results are instant, like dermal fillers, while others develop over days or weeks, like anti-wrinkle treatments or skin rejuvenation. We’ll talk through the timeline during your consultation so you know exactly what to expect.
