Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic from Stevenage, Hertfordshire in his latest blog talks about how to get your existing botox patients to keep on returning for more botox treatments. This was taken from a  recent article Harry did in a dental publication.

Now, let’s look at how we keep our patients returning for treatment.

1. 2 week review – all our patients have to book a review appointment. The reason for this is twofold, firstly you want to take your after pictures to build up your gallery and also the more contact you have with your patients, and the more they will trust, stay with and recommend you.

2. price freeze – to encourage all our toxin patients to book their next appointment in advance, we have produced a voucher that entitles them to have the treatment done a t the same time, if they book at the review appointment. So we will book their next appointment in 4 months time and the voucher is valid for 6 months, so giving them a 2 month window.

3. loyalty scheme – if its good enough for starbucks, then its good enough for us. We have a mini card with 6 circles. Every time they spend £50 at one time, they get a sticker. Once the card if full with 6 stickers, this entitles them to £0 off any facial/dental services. So the beauty of this, some patients will take up some dental services since they are getting £10 off.

4. facial plans – similar to Denplan, why not let your patients budget for their facial aesthetic services throughout the year. CODE, do some excellent personalised ones.

Can you see now how critical it is to have systems in place to encourage referrals and retain your existing patients, and how much money you would leave on the table if you did not follow these systems.

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic from Stevenage, Hertfordshire in his latest blog talks about how to get your existing botox patients to refer other botox patients. This was taken from a  recent article Harry did in a dental publication.

Once we have attracted new patients for facial aesthetics we want to maximise our return of investment, therefore we want to ensure our patients refer their family and friends and also they themselves become regular clients.

By growing your facial aesthetics business via referrals and retention is the cheapest and quickest way to increase your patient numbers.

I used to think that facial aesthetic patients would not tell their family and friends about their treatments, so early on in my career, I did not bother asking them for referrals. Then Smita – my hygienist and business manager challenged my limiting belief and devised a set of systems to encourage our patients to refer their family and friends and i was amazed at the response and growth in facial aesthetic patients.

There is a simple rule of 3 I live by that will encourage referral s from your existing patients

1. if you deliver what the patient expects they will return as a regular patient

2. if you deliver less that what the patient expects, they will go somewhere else

3. if you deliver more than what the patient expects they will return and tell their family and friends about your services.

Let’s start of referrals. How do we get our existing patients to tell their family and friends when most of the women we treat don’t even tell their husbands/partners that they are undergoing facial aesthetic services.

As mentioned above, we have to exceed the patient’s expectations, and we do this in a number of ways:

1.  free post kit – these can easily be obtained from the manufacturers. It cost us nothing and is given to every patient after any procedure they have. They love getting stuff for free and you can also cross sell your skin range at the same time.

2.  free mineral makeup session after treatment – similar to above, these patients are concerned with their appearance, so why not do a mini makeover with your mineral make up. They are not expecting this and you never know, they may want to purchase some of your mineral make up range.

3. free neck and shoulder massage – Jenna, my assistant, is a qualified beautician. So whilst I am preparing the toxin /filler, she will give the patient a free 2 minute massage.

4.  3 month guarantee – on all our toxin patients we offer a 3month guarantee from the day of their treatment in that if they feel they need  atop up or it has worn off within 3 months, it will be free of charge. You will get a tiny minority that may abuse the system, but this is counter balanced by the patients that appreciate this safety net and tell their friends about this.

5.  £30 facial aesthetics voucher – to encourage referrals, we point out to our patients, that anyone they refer, to make sure they mention who referred them, they will receive a £30 facial aesthetics vouchers to use off their next treatment. This has an added bonus of making sure your patients come back, as they will not want to waste the £30 voucher.

6.  mates rates – we normally charge £250 for 3 areas of toxin. We will reduce this to £200 per person, if they bring 2 friends with them to have it done at the same time. You will be amazed on who our patients will try to encourage to come so they can save £50. If they take this offer then the above referral incentive is not applicable.

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic from Stevenage in Hertfordshire talks about a common question asked by his patients. What will happen if I stop having the botox and will I become addicted.

If you decide to stop the treatment then your muscles and lines will go back to what they would have been at that time in your life.

Your wrinkles will not get worse if you stop using botox. If you think of botox as ‘freezing time’ you will have an idea of what to expect if you stopped it.

You cannot physiologically be addicted to botox. However since the results are so good, we do have many patients that cant live without it!

You can stop anytime and you can restart anytime with botox. The decision is completely yours. There are no long term contracts or maintenance plans we get you to sign. It is entirely up to you.

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic from Stevenage in Hertfordshire talks about when to plan your diary so the effects of botox have its maximum impact on your big day.

Many patients tell about special parties, weddings or birthdays coming up and they want the botox to have worked for this event.

I would advice to leave it at least a month before the big event. Normally the effects of botox can take up to 2 weeks to work. Then you may need a top up of the botox which normally takes a week to kick in. So if you allow a month you should be fine. The effects of the botox would normally last for 3 months so you will have the look you desire at your big event.

You will have peace of mind that if you do experience any redness or bruises following the botox treatment, you have given plenty of time to let it heal and disappear.

So relax, enjoy your big day, look forward to receiving glowing compliments on how refreshed or young you look and without no one suspecting you had botox only a month ago.

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic from Stevenage in Hertfordshire talks about one of the biggest fears my women patients have when they are thinking about undertaking botox treatments.

Most of them have not told their friends, family members or partners that they are undergoing botox procedures. So naturally they don’t want anyone to notice or have a false look that gives the game up immediately.

One of the dead giveaways is known as the ‘Dr Spock’ look or startled/quizzical look.

This can be avoided in a number of ways.

• we don’t want to over freeze your frown muscles, these pull you eyes down. If this is completely frozen then you wont be able to pull your eyes down at all and the eyebrows might raise too much
• We don’t want to under freeze your forehead muscles. If this is combined with over freezing your frown muscles, they your eyebrows could potentially shoot upwards
• We can give what is known in the trade – anti spock injections. These are botox injections placed in the far side of the forehead to prevent the eyebrows pointing upwards.

Lets say you do end up with the ‘spock’ look. It can be corrected in the review appointment after 2 weeks. You would most probably need some more botox in your forehead to drop the eyebrows, but this needs to be done carefully. You don’t want to give too much in the forehead and have the revers problem, where the eyes start drooping.

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic from Stevenage in Hertfordshire talks about what to do immediately and for the next few days after your botox procedure.

There are 2 critical things that are essential to follow after the botox. One is to drink plenty of water for the next 24hours after the procedure. Botox can dehydrate your body and you want to replenish this with water. Otherwise you may suffer from headaches. This is why we also say avoid alcohol for 24 hours. In theory you can drink alcohol as it wont effect the mechanics of the botox from working, but as long as you are drinking plenty of water with it, you should be fine.

The second critical piece of advice, is not to exercise for 24 hours after the botox procedure. You don’t want the botox to travel where it is not suppose to. One of the side effects of exercising is that the botox travels downwards and caused the eyes to droop.

• Try to contract the treated muscle areas for up to four hours after treatment, by frowning and lifting eyebrows to allow the toxin to reach all of the treated muscle.
• Avoid rubbing or touching the injected areas and avoid having facials and massage for 48 hours this is to ensure that the treatment remains at the site of injection.
• No crash helmets or hard hats for 24 hours
• If bruising develops the you can apply Arnica cream
• Paracetamol can be taken for mild pain post procedure

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic in Stevenage, hertfordshire explains in his latest blog what causes a wrinkle and how botox can help reduce these.

As we age our skin cells become thinner and less sticky.

Obviously thinner cell mean the appearance of the skin is thinner.

The lack of stickiness reduces how effective how barrier function is. This means moisture in our skin is released rather than being kept in making in drier.

The amount of cells decreases by 10% every 10 years, as the reproduction of cells slows down the speed in which our skin repairs itself also slows and becomes less effective.

The natural production of collagen also decreases and our elastin fibers start to wear out. These are the building blocks of our skin; the elastin is what keeps everything in place. As this starts to wear out the building blocks of our skin start to crumble, this is what causes our skin to sag and wrinkle.

Our sweat glands reduce in numbers and although our sebaceous glands increase in size they produce less moisture. This causes again a drier skin. Dry skin looks dull and tired.

You fat cells also shrink no longer plumping out those wrinkles/folds.

It is important to keep the skin well hydrated to prevent loss of water, keep it protected so it doesn’t have to work harder to repair itself. Eat well with lots of healthy non saturated fats (omega oils). Look at products that target free radical damage (free radicals are around us all the time in the environment (pollution) and cause aging. Antioxidants will help fight the free radical damage.

Botox is a miracle cure, within 2 weeks of treatment your wrinkles will either be reduced or eliminated.
