It’s easy to forget when you’re in the day-to-day grind – but as an aesthetic professional, you have the power to transform the way your clients feel about themselves. Whether it’s smoothing stretch marks, removing unwanted hair, or fading a tattoo they no longer love, the treatments you provide can make a huge difference.
Here are a few tips for creating custom treatments, setting expectations, and making your clients feel amazing – even before the treatment begins.
Tips for designing hair reduction treatments Solutions
Creating a safe, welcoming space
Hair reduction can be an intimate process, especially when clients are looking to treat sensitive areas. The key is to create a non-judgmental, welcoming space where clients feel comfortable sharing their concerns and goals. Building this trust is the first step in creating a positive experience.
Consultation and setting expectations
A thorough consultation helps you understand your client’s skin type, hair type, and the areas they’d like to treat. Explain the treatment process, discuss the number of sessions needed, and address any concerns about discomfort or results.
Using before and after photos
Showcasing real results from previous clients is a great way to build confidence. Before and after photos give clients a clear idea of what they can expect and how laser hair reduction can benefit them.

Tips for designing tattoo removal treatments
Drop your judgement
Tattoo regret is real – especially for clients who have outgrown the tattoo or its meaning. Offering a compassionate, judgment-free environment helps clients feel understood and supported as they embark on the removal process.
Be realistic
During the consultation, ask about the size, age, and colour of the tattoo to determine the best course of treatment. Be upfront about the number of sessions required, as some colours and older tattoos may take longer to fade.
Show them what’s possible
Showing clients before and after photos of successful tattoo removals can help ease any anxiety about the process. It also helps set expectations for how the ink will gradually fade over time.
Our go-to tattoo removal device
Picolo Premium: This Q-switched laser is a top-tier choice for tattoo removal, capable of targeting even the toughest ink pigments with precision. It works on a wide range of colours and is gentle on surrounding skin, making it a go-to for effective tattoo removal.
Tips for designing stretch mark treatments
Ask questions with care
Stretch marks are often tied to personal and emotional experiences, such as pregnancy, weight changes, or growth spurts. Make clients feel more comfortable discussing their body concerns by asking open questions and listening without judgment.
Consultation and clear communication
During the consultation, assess the location and severity of the stretch marks. Be honest about what clients can expect in terms of improvement – while stretch marks can’t be completely erased, they can be significantly reduced.
Share real results
Nothing speaks louder than real results. Show clients before and after photos from previous treatments to help them visualise the improvements they can expect. This can also set realistic expectations and help avoid disappointment.
