AT A GLANCE
If the clinic asks for photos, use clear, unfiltered images that show the relevant area and follow its instructions. Photos can support a discussion, but they cannot replace examination or confirm treatment suitability on their own.
Keep the comparison honest
Use consistent lighting and distance when documenting a change over time, and tell the clinician if makeup or an earlier procedure affects the appearance. Include the date and a short description of the concern rather than relying on an annotated image alone. Ask how the clinic wants sensitive images sent and stored before sharing them.
Questions to bring to your consultation
Use these questions to turn your interests into a specific discussion with your doctor. Keep the proposed treatment, the reason for it and the follow-up arrangements together in your notes.
- Which views and details would help the clinician?
- What cannot be assessed from these photographs?
- Which communication channel should I use for private images?
Your questions
Will sending photos reserve or confirm a treatment?
No. Photos may help an initial enquiry, but appointment confirmation and the clinical treatment decision are separate steps that the clinic must address directly.
