The medical consultation
What to expect
Every treatment at SKN MD begins with a consultation. It is a focused appointment of about 45 minutes in which one of our nurse injectors, working under medical direction, listens to what brings you in, examines and reads your face, and establishes a clear treatment plan tailored to your goals. There is no obligation to proceed.
The consultation covers your history and expectations, a facial assessment (including clinical photographs under calibrated light), and a written plan setting out your options, sequencing, prices, realistic expectations and any contraindications, which we discuss with you in detail and record in your medical file.
No treatment is performed the same day without a clear plan. A CA$50 deposit (before taxes) reserves your appointment. The CA$150 consultation fee is credited in full to any treatment performed within 60 days.
How it works
1. History & goals
We review what brings you in — your history, medications, expectations and goals. The conversation can take place in French or English, whichever you prefer.
2. Facial assessment
We read the face across key anatomical points and take clinical photographs under calibrated light, so your plan is based on an accurate picture of your skin and structure.
3. Your plan
We walk you through a clear plan — your options, sequencing, realistic expectations and contraindications — and you decide in your own time. No treatment is rushed on the day of your first visit. Individual results vary.
