How often should a figure assessment be conducted?

Conducting a figure assessment every six treatments is considered a best practice in many beauty and aesthetic treatments. This frequency allows practitioners to effectively monitor changes in the client's body contour, skin quality, or overall treatment progress without overwhelming them with assessments after every treatment. It strikes a balance between ensuring that the client's progress is tracked and allowing enough time for the treatments to take effect.

Regular assessments also help in making data-driven adjustments to the treatment plan, addressing client concerns, and setting realistic expectations based on observable results. If assessments were conducted after every treatment, it could lead to unnecessary anxiety for the client and may result in viewing short-term changes over the longer-term benefits that emerge after multiple sessions.

By focusing on a six-treatment interval, professionals can better gauge the cumulative effects and provide clients with informed feedback based on a broader scope of results, improving the overall treatment experience and outcomes. This method fosters a clearer understanding of progress over time rather than potential fluctuations that can occur between individual sessions.
