How to choose the right aesthetic clinic in Switzerland

Seven questions to ask before your first consultation — and the red flags that should send you elsewhere.

Is the practitioner a physician?

In Switzerland, injectables are medical treatments and should be performed by, or under the supervision of, a qualified physician. You can check a doctor's registration in the federal medical register (MedReg) and look for FMH specialist titles.

How conservative is their default dosing?

The best clinics begin with the lowest effective dose and titrate up over follow-ups. A clinic that pushes maximum volume on day one is rarely the right one.

Do they refer when appropriate?

A practitioner willing to say 'this is not the right treatment for you' or 'a colleague does this better' is showing the integrity you want from a long-term partner.
