摘要

Patient communication and ethical branding are crucial determinants of satisfaction and outcomes in aesthetic surgery. This article summarizes insights from an ISAPS Fellowship at Velthuis Kliniek, Rotterdam, under Dr. H.P.Jeroen Stevens and Dr. Jacques van der Meulen, highlighting strategies for patient-centered consultations and professional branding. Consultations emphasized precise, constructive language, avoiding anxiety-inducing terms such as “complication” or “revision,” and favoring expressions like “refinement” and “individual variability” to manage expectations effectively. Visual aids, structured presentations, and digital resources enhanced understanding, aligning with evidence-based models of communication. Ethical branding was promoted through concise motivational “one-liners” and intuitive procedural naming, supporting trust and positive perception. Exposure to premium private practice operations offered insights into holistic patient management, value-based communication, and decision support strategies. Integrating these approaches into routine practice may improve clarity, patient satisfaction, and long-term outcomes. The ISAPS Fellowship demonstrates a multidimensional model that extends beyond technical training, emphasizing the critical role of communication and branding in contemporary aesthetic surgery.
