Your first filler visit begins with your goals, medical history and prior procedures. At our Renton clinic, discuss the proposed product, area, amount, risks and alternatives before deciding whether to proceed.
Describe the feature you want assessed
Bring previous injectable details if available and photographs explaining your goal. Ask what the proposed filler can reasonably change and whether another approach or deferral is more appropriate. A syringe amount cannot be selected from a photograph or a general price guide.
Review the product and consent discussion
Request the patient labeling, proposed area and full quote. Discuss common effects and rare but serious risks, including injection into a blood vessel. Ask which removal options, if any, apply to the specific product; filler correction is not a guaranteed quick reversal of every effect or complication.
Leave with written care and contact details
If treatment proceeds, confirm personalized aftercare, the review point and how to obtain help for concerning symptoms. Swelling can affect appearance, but unexpected pain, skin changes or vision symptoms should not be dismissed as routine. Seek urgent medical help for vision symptoms or other severe concerns.

During Your Treatment
Assessment and options
Bring previous injectable details if available and photographs explaining your goal. Ask what the proposed filler can reasonably change and whether another approach or deferral is more appropriate. A syringe amount cannot be selected from a photograph or a general price guide.
Product, area and consent
Request the patient labeling, proposed area and full quote. Discuss common effects and rare but serious risks, including injection into a blood vessel. Ask which removal options, if any, apply to the specific product; filler correction is not a guaranteed quick reversal of every effect or complication.
Treatment only when appropriate
If you decide to proceed and the clinician considers it appropriate, confirm the product, area and plan before treatment. Tell the clinician about any concerning sensation or change.
Written care and review
If treatment proceeds, confirm personalized aftercare, the review point and how to obtain help for concerning symptoms. Swelling can affect appearance, but unexpected pain, skin changes or vision symptoms should not be dismissed as routine. Seek urgent medical help for vision symptoms or other severe concerns.
After Your Treatment
Follow the written product- and area-specific care plan and obtain a contact for concerns.
Ask about makeup, activity, other procedures and review timing rather than assuming a universal schedule.
Seek immediate medical attention for unusual pain, vision changes, concerning skin-color changes or other severe symptoms during or shortly after filler treatment.
Discuss product-specific correction options with a qualified clinician; removal is not a guaranteed quick solution to every result or complication.

Session Duration
Swelling, bruising and other reactions vary by person, product and area.
