What happens during consultation
The consultation is a focused clinical review where a trained clinician evaluates your skin concerns, medical history, current skincare and medications, and lifestyle factors. The clinician examines signs such as acne, pigmentation, or aging, and discusses safety considerations for different skin types while explaining the non‑invasive nature of Aerolase technology.
The consultation fee is $99 and the visit lasts 15 MINUTES. During that time we outline potential treatment options, discuss minimal downtime expectations, and consider seasonality — many local clients plan procedures in fall (Sep, Oct, Nov) when UV exposure drops and winter regimens are easier to schedule.
How results are planned
A treatment plan is shaped by the specific concern (acne, pigmentation, or age‑related changes), skin tone, and the client’s tolerance for downtime. The consultation identifies which laser approaches within the Aerolase platform are appropriate and which outcomes are realistic based on those individual factors, without promising specific results.
Because Aerolase treatments are non‑invasive, your clinician balances the intensity of therapy with recovery preferences and local lifestyle needs. For San Jose residents who commute or work nearby in Willow Glen, scheduling and recovery time are practical considerations that influence how a course of care is recommended.
Preparing for your consultation
Bring a list of current medications, recent treatment history, and your regular skincare products. If possible, arrive with clean skin or minimal makeup so the clinician can see baseline condition. Mention any recent tanning, topical prescriptions, or procedures to help the clinician assess suitability and safety.
After the consultation you’ll receive clear next steps: whether testing, patch trials, or treatment scheduling is advised. Because Aerolase procedures typically have minimal downtime, many clients arrange appointments before or after work, or pair visits with shopping and dining in Downtown Willow Glen.
