Abstract:
The field of aesthetics is expanding more rapidly than ever before, bringing with it an influx of new-to-aesthetics patients who lack industry knowledge. We investigated ways to bridge this gap in knowledge and provide patients with important procedural information and also increase their satisfaction and confidence. We implemented this project to improve the delivery of preprocedural patient education via the implementation of an educational video. We collected data over a 16-week period and analyzed the results of the pre- and post-video implementation. We found that implementing the educational video decreased the average time the provider spent consulting with new patients considering injectable neuromodulators or dermal fillers. We also found that using the video increased the patient's preprocedural confidence and postprocedural satisfaction. Based on the results of our quality improvement project, we concluded that implementing a patient education video before performing cosmetic injectable procedures improved patient confidence and satisfaction and decreased provider consultation times.
