How is Minnamurra MediSpa different to most other cosmetic skin clinics?
A lot of skin clinics rely on selling packages upfront to ensure you keep coming back, they rely on you spending extra each time you come by purchasing additional products. They usually recommend a series of micros, maybe then a series or ‘enzyme’ treatments, and perhaps some sessions with light therapy, the list goes on.
The aim is to get you back 10-15 times and maximise your spend.
As a customer and consumer myself: After an experience like this I have left feeling like I have been locked in or coerced into something I was not entirely sure of the value of. I worried I had spent too much. I don’t like this approach, in fact I despise it.
Often your condition can be addressed with one to three treatments straight up. If my treatment works for you and you are happy with your result you will continue to come back for the same careful & honest care. In general I try not to sell you packages, but rather make each treatment as affordable as I can. You should want to return based on the care you have received and your understanding of the results. Some treatments are best done in a series- we will discuss this when we see each other.
When I meet you I will ask you to look in the mirror and point to what bothers you. It is important that I see what you see. I can then provide advice on different treatment options. After we discuss your options for care you should feel you can make an informed decision, with a risk profile you understand and hopefully a budget that you are comfortable with. My patients really value my honesty. My aim is to help my patients achieve improvement to the quality of their skin without breaking the household budget and feeling guilty for looking after yourself.
Sometimes I don’t have the treatment available that you may need. I may recommend you see someone else, I don’t hesitate in doing this as I believe it is ethical care. In this case I will apply a $66 consultation fee, so that I can honestly send you where you need to go and not need to sell my own treatments to cover the cost of my time. I have experience working with Plastic Surgeons, Dermatologists, and GP’s that work specifically with skin and skin cancer care. This approach is ethical and fair to both you and I.
