Do's and Don'ts for Gifting Cosmetic Treatments
The holiday season is coming quickly, and finding meaningful gifts for our loved ones is top-of-mind for many people.
Giving an aesthetic treatment is a great way to help someone feel good about themselves and to enjoy some pampering. Given the ever-increasing popularity of cosmetic enhancement, giving these services for both men and women have become a popular option.
What are the ‘dos’ and ‘don’ts’ when it comes to gifting aesthetic procedures and treatments?
Dos and Don'ts for Gifting a Cosmetic Procedure
There is a fine line between an offensive and thoughtful gift. We've compiled an ultimate guideline to help you give a cosmetic treatment.
DO determine the recipients' desire.
First and foremost, always start by determining the recipient's desires and concerns. Be 100% sure that a non-invasive cosmetic treatment is on the recipient's list. This is always easier if the recipient has already had procedures before and has expressed a desire to continue getting treatments.
Hearing your lover complain about something doesn't mean he/she wants to get a treatment done. Your well-intentioned gift can be easily misconstructed. A good way to do this is to discuss the topic of cosmetic treatments with your recipient. If they seem to be uncomfortable with the topic, gifting the services might not be a good idea. Therefore, always confirm their desires before you decide on the gifting otherwise, you waste may waste the opportunity to give a great gift.
DO your research and Give an Educated Gift
If your recipient is indeed interested, the next step is doing your research on procedures and providers.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to cosmetic treatments. Each individual is unique, so make sure the provider you choose is reputable and can customize a treatment plan based on each patients' needs.
Don't give a friend or family member a procedure with a practitioner that you don't trust yourself. Make sure he or she is board-certified for the treatments. Check their credentials and read Google/Yelp reviews.
DO opt for gift certificates
Gift cards are a good idea as the treatment plans cannot be pre-determined without the initial consultation. It's well-noted that not all recipients are the right candidate for certain procedures. Before making the purchase, ensure that the Med Spa you choose has a wide variety of options that can address different concerns.
DON’T blindly purchase cyber deals or treatment packages that seem too good to be true
You get what you pay for. There is a big difference between the treatment and quality of service among different clinics. The quality of staff training, services, products and practitioner make a price difference. If the pricing or deals sound too good to be true, it is probably that case. You wouldn't want to give your family member or loved one an unwanted treatment in a cheap facility. Be cautious of Groupon discounts as you might be too excited about the deal to do thorough research. In addition, an individualized treatment plan might be forgiven for the sake of cheap pricing. Remember: Cosmetic procedures are not one-size-fits-all.
The Best Cosmetic Procedures to Give as Holiday Gifts
Here is a list of cosmetic procedures our expert recommend:
Aesthetic Treatments AZ
Non-invasive treatments like chemical peels, microneedling, or HydraFacial are a popular gift idea. Give the gift of glowing and healthy skin within 30 minutes.
Medical-grade skincare products are another good option, too. A medical-grade product is much safer and effective than over-the-counter skin care that you can find in Target, Sephora or any drugstore retailer.
At our Medspa Chandler AZ, our skin experts hand-select the best lines of medical-grade products to address different skin types and concerns. We offer a free consultation so you can call us to receive advice on which services or products might make the best gifts.
