2.0  Patient Consultation

 

Communicating with your patient and establishing an environment where they feel cared for and comfortable is a 
crucial step to set the tone of the treatment experience.

 

PLASMA IQ is used in the removal and destruction of skin lesions and the coagulation of tissue. 

Take a moment to talk with your patient to understand:

 

Why is the patient interested in a PLASMA IQ treatment?

What indication does the patient want to address?

What level of change is the patient looking for? Discuss the amount of treatments that would most likely support
this level of change.

Share before and after imagery to help set expectations for results.
