Top Tips for Choosing the Right Aesthetic Practitioner

Choosing the right aesthetic practitioner is one of the most important steps when considering treatments such as dermal fillers, anti wrinkle injections or advanced skin rejuvenation. With the aesthetics industry continuing to grow, patients are faced with more choice than ever before. This means that finding a qualified, experienced and trustworthy practitioner is essential for your safety and for achieving natural looking results.

‍

At AL Aesthetics, we understand that the search can feel overwhelming, particularly if you are new to aesthetic treatments. To help you make an informed and confident decision, here are the key factors to consider when choosing the right aesthetic practitioner.

‍

1. Check Their Medical Background and Qualifications

‍

Safety should be your first priority. Aesthetic procedures involve medical products and require detailed knowledge of facial anatomy. Because of this, your practitioner should have a strong clinical background and appropriate qualifications.

‍

At AL Aesthetics, every injector is medically trained and personally mentored by Dr Ash Labib, a globally recognised cosmetic specialist with more than 27 years of experience in the industry. His long NHS career in Rhinology and Rhinoplasty informs the precision and skill that underpin every treatment delivered at the clinic.

‍

What to look for:

• Verified medical qualifications and certifications
• Evidence of specialist training in aesthetics
• Membership of recognised professional bodies
• Clear commitment to safe practice

2. Ask About Their Experience with Your Chosen Treatment

‍

Experience is a defining factor in the quality of your results. Injectables require technical expertise and artistic judgement. A highly experienced practitioner is better equipped to customise your treatment, manage risks and create subtle, balanced enhancements.

‍

Dr Ash Labib is widely known as a Master Injector. He has completed more than 6500 non surgical rhinoplasties and has trained over 2000 injectors worldwide. His expertise shapes the high standards upheld across every AL Aesthetics clinic.

‍

Why experience matters:

• Increased accuracy and precision
• Enhanced understanding of different facial structures
• More predictable and natural outcomes
• Improved ability to handle complications

If you are considering a specialist procedure such as non surgical rhinoplasty, experience becomes even more important. Always ask how frequently your practitioner performs the treatment you are interested in.

‍

3. Assess Their Commitment to Safety

‍

A reputable aesthetic practitioner places patient safety at the centre of their work. This includes responsible product selection, transparent communication and strict adherence to clinical protocols.

‍

AL Aesthetics is committed to ethical, medically led care. As an International Ambassador for Allergan, Dr Labib promotes safe, high quality aesthetics on a global scale. He actively contributes to research, audits and educational initiatives to support industry progression.

‍

Signs of a safe clinic:

• Comprehensive consultations
• Clear explanation of benefits and risks
• The use of medical grade products
• Detailed aftercare guidance
• A strict policy of not treating under 18s

4. Look for Specialist Training in the Treatment You Want

‍

Not every practitioner specialises in the same procedures. If you have a specific treatment in mind, it is important to choose someone with advanced training and a proven track record in that area.

‍

Dr Labib played a pioneering role in co-developing the non-surgical rhinoplasty technique, often described as the 15-minute nose job. This innovative approach is now recognised across the world for its effectiveness and convenience. Choosing a practitioner who is directly connected to the development of advanced techniques ensures you receive the highest standard of care.

‍

Always ask:

• What specialist training have you completed for this treatment
• How many times have you performed it
• Can I see examples of your results

5. Choose a Clinic With a Supportive and Patient Focused Approach

‍

Aesthetic treatment should be a positive and reassuring experience from start to finish. Your practitioner should take time to understand your goals, explain your options and provide honest advice about what is achievable.

‍

At AL Aesthetics, our patient journey is designed with care at its core. Our Patient Co ordinator, Sasha, offers friendly support from the moment you walk through the door. Our advanced facialist and aesthetician, Donna Marie, brings 18 years of experience in skin health to every consultation. Her focus on education and lifestyle guidance ensures patients understand how to maintain healthy skin both inside and outside the clinic.

‍

Look for:

• A welcoming and informative consultation
• A personalised treatment plan
• No pressure to commit
• Clear answers to your questions
• Genuine aftercare support

6. Review Real Patient Results and Testimonials

‍

Before choosing a practitioner, take time to explore their results and patient feedback. This is one of the most reliable ways to understand their level of expertise and the quality you can expect.

‍

Useful indicators include:

• Before and after galleries
• Verified patient reviews
• Case studies of similar treatments
• Consistency in natural, balanced outcomes

AL Aesthetics is proud of its clinical excellence and the many patient transformations achieved under the guidance of Dr Labib and his team.

‍

7. Trust Your Instincts

‍

Your confidence in your practitioner is essential. You should feel respected, informed and comfortable throughout every step of your experience. A trustworthy practitioner will never rush you or pressure you into making a decision.
