Why a Skin Consultation Comes First at Total Body Concept

Why a Skin Consultation Comes First at Total Body Concept

At Total Body Concept, we’re often asked, “Why do I need a skin consultation before starting my course of treatments?”The answer is simple: every skin is unique, and a personalised skin consultation, whether you’re receiving tech or topical treatments, will allow us to assess the condition your skin and create a personalised plan to achieve real, long-lasting results.

Understanding Your Skin

Before we begin any treatment, whether it’s FaceUp, laser therapy, or advanced facial treatments, we take the time to understand your skin’s current condition, history, and goals. We ask a lot about the history of your skin, what’s happened in the past to create what’s happening in the present. Sometimes it’s just the incorrect use of a current product you’re using which may be irritating or congesting your skin. A consultation allows us to:

  • Analyse your skin type, texture, and sensitivities Identify concerns such as pigmentation, fine lines, acne, or redness
  • Review your lifestyle, medical history, and skincare routine.

This ensures that the treatments you receive are not only safe, but also highly effective.

Personalised Treatment Plans

One size does not fit all in skincare. During your consultation, we create a customised plan tailored specifically to you. This approach helps us:

  • Select the right combination of technology treatments
  • Schedule sessions for maximum results
  • Adjust intensity and frequency according to your skin’s response.
Safety and Results Go Hand-in-Hand

Some technology or typical treatments may not be suitable if you have certain conditions or sensitivities. A thorough consultation allows us to minimise risks and set realistic expectations. By understanding your skin first, we can deliver results that are both visible and long-lasting, rather than applying treatments blindly.

Skin Analysis

During the consultation we access your skin through a Woods Lamp which allows us to assess your skin through different levels. Woods Lamp uses a UV light to allow us to see through the deeper dermal levels (we can see pigmentation underneath the skin which we can’t see with a naked eye). We also use a magnifying lamp to have a closer look at your skin.  

How to get your skin looking its best

Sometimes there is a combination of things that we need to do to get your skin to its full health. We take skin that’s not performing to its optimal function and bring it to a place to allow it to perform at its best – we protect, support and sustain it through the process.

Treating your skin is a step-by-step process

We will put you on a skincare journey which will allow us to get your skin functioning on its own, to its optimal level so it looks gorgeous. A skin care plan will be subscribed to you which will be aligned to what we do with our specialised skincare treatments in the clinic. This will give your skin the optimal opportunity to treat your major skin concern, whether it be congestion, pigmentation or sun damage. We work with you to educate you on your skin, your products and to ensure you are 100% aware of what you are doing and why.
