Before treatment
Ask the clinician to explain both common injection-site reactions and serious complications, including what an urgent problem could look like. Agree on a route for prompt assessment rather than relying only on a routine review.
After your appointment
Follow the instructions for the particular product and area. Contact a clinician immediately for concerning changes such as severe pain, unusual skin colour changes or visual symptoms; urgent symptoms should not wait for a WhatsApp reply.
Make your next step clear
Save the questions relevant to your appointment and discuss them with the treating team.
