INJECTION QUESTIONS
FAQ’S
What can I expect during a treatment session?
During a treatment session, the injector will cleanse your skin and may apply a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort. Then, the injectable will be carefully administered to targeted areas. Please allocate a minimum of one hour in the office.
Are the results of Botox and dermal fillers immediate?
Botox takes about 3-7 days to show full results, as the muscles need time to relax. Dermal fillers provide immediate results, but the final effect may continue to improve over the next few days as any swelling subsides. Full results at 2 weeks.
How long do the effects of Botox and dermal fillers last?
Botox typically lasts 3-4 months before the treatment needs to be repeated. Dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the type of filler and the area treated.
Are there any side effects or downtime?
Some common side effects include redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection site. These effects usually resolve within a few hours to a few days. There is minimal downtime, and most clients can resume normal activities right after the treatment
Who is a good candidate for aesthetic injectables?

Can I resume normal activities after my treatment?
Most patients can resume normal activities immediately after treatment. However, it's advised to avoid intense physical activity, alcohol, and sun exposure for 24 hours after your appointment to reduce the risk of bruising and swelling.
Can I get injectables if I have a medical condition?
It's important to discuss any medical conditions with your injector before undergoing treatment. Certain conditions, like pregnancy, breastfeeding, or active skin infections, may require you to postpone treatments. Your injector will assess your medical history to determine if you're a suitable candidate.
How do I maintain my results?
To maintain the effects of Botox and dermal fillers, you may need to schedule touch-up treatments every few months to a year, depending on the product used and the results you're looking for. A proper skincare routine and healthy lifestyle can also help prolong the results.
