How Does Telehealth Work for Beauty Concerns?

Not every health and beauty concern requires a drive to your doctor’s office. Now, with access to the internet, most people can benefit from a telehealth appointment with their medical provider, saving time otherwise spent driving to the doctor’s office.

However, since your medical provider isn’t in the same room, you may have questions about the uses of telehealth appointments. What are the benefits and limitations of medical appointments that happen over a video call?

To help you get a better understanding of how telehealth works for beauty concerns, we asked our experts at me.losangeles aesthetics in West Hollywood, California, to explain what you can expect from a telehealth appointment.

Diagnosis, consultation, and personalized treatment plans

Much like a regular consultation, our providers can diagnose, examine your cosmetic concerns, and provide a personalized treatment plan. 

Telehealth consultations are great for cosmetic concerns that don’t require in-person treatment. For example, a patient suffering from acne can see improvements in their symptoms by following an at-home treatment regimen.

However, it can be equally helpful for patients who are considering in-person treatments but are unsure whether they’re good candidates. For example, someone unsure about getting injectables for their fine lines and wrinkles can benefit from discussing their concerns with a medical provider and receiving personalized advice without coming to the office.

Following a treatment, telehealth appointments can also be helpful, as patients can stay in touch with their providers and share any concerns they might have.

What can be discussed during a telehealth appointment?

All sorts of health concerns can be discussed during a telehealth appointment. You can speak to our providers about hair loss, anti-aging treatments, acne and scarring treatments, and even IV-drip therapies for energy and overall health.

During your appointment, having access to a well-lit space and providing high-quality photos for our provider to examine is crucial. Access to a high-quality webcam that delivers clear images is also a must.

While telehealth is helpful, certain procedures and treatments may require an in-person visit to our office.
