Your journey to refreshed, radiant skin begins with a thorough consultation. At Dr Kate Aesthetics, we believe that exceptional results start with understanding you, your concerns, your goals, and your unique facial anatomy. Here’s what to expect during your first consultation with Dr Kate, and why this step is essential for safe, natural-looking outcomes.
The Warmest Welcome
From the moment you arrive at our Barnet clinic, you’ll experience a welcoming, professional environment where your comfort is a priority. Our friendly front-of-house team will greet you, help you settle in, and ensure you feel relaxed before meeting Dr Kate or one of the other practitioners.
Comprehensive Medical Assessment
During your consultation, Dr Kate or your practitioner will conduct a detailed medical and lifestyle assessment. This is crucial to ensure treatments are safe, appropriate, and tailored to your needs. We will ask about:
- Your medical history, including allergies or previous procedures.
- Any medications you’re currently taking.
- Your skincare routine and previous aesthetic treatments.
This step not only safeguards your health but also helps us design a treatment plan that truly works for you.
In-Depth Facial Analysis
Next, Dr Kate will perform a bespoke facial analysis, studying your facial proportions, skin quality, and areas of concern. This thorough approach allows her to identify the root causes of concerns such as volume loss, skin laxity, or pigmentation.
She will discuss treatment options that will enhance your natural features, rather than altering them, to achieve results that look balanced and harmonious.
Discussing Your Goals
Your consultation is the perfect opportunity to talk openly about your goals. Whether you’re interested in softening lines, restoring lost volume, or improving skin texture, Dr Kate will listen carefully and provide honest, medically-sound advice.
This conversation helps set realistic expectations, ensuring you feel confident and informed about every aspect of your treatment journey.
Personalised Treatment Plan
Based on your consultation, Dr Kate will design a personalised plan tailored to your skin’s needs and your desired outcomes. This may include:
- Advanced injectables like Sculptra or Radiesse.
- Skin boosters or polynucleotides for hydration and regeneration.
- Laser or device-based treatments to refine skin tone and texture.
- Medical-grade skincare to maintain and enhance your results.
A detailed explanation of your recommended treatments, expected results, and any aftercare requirements will be provided so you can make an informed decision.
Honest Pricing & Scheduling
Transparency is a key part of our approach. You will receive a clear, itemised treatment quote with no hidden costs. Dr Kate and the team will also discuss scheduling and how best to stage your treatments for optimal, gradual results.
Your Questions Answered
At the end of your consultation, you’ll have time to ask any questions you might have about your treatment plan, recovery, or results. Dr Kate takes pride in patient education, and no question is too small, we want you to feel fully confident before proceeding.

Consultations typically last 40-60 minutes, giving Dr Kate enough time to conduct a thorough assessment, answer your questions, and create a personalised treatment plan.
Do I need to prepare anything before my consultation?
If possible, bring a list of your current skincare products, details of any medications or supplements you’re taking, and information about past aesthetic treatments. This helps Dr Kate tailor recommendations specifically to your needs.
Will I receive treatment on the same day as my consultation?
In many cases, treatments can be performed on the same day if you feel confident moving forward and Dr Kate determines it is safe and appropriate. Some procedures, especially those requiring more preparation or staged treatment plans, may need to be booked separately.
