Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to commonly asked questions by patients seeking treatment with Injectables & Facial Aesthetics.

• How long does it last?
  Results start in 3–7 days and reach full effect by two weeks. On average, results last 3–4 months, depending on dose, muscle strength, and metabolism.
• What are Neurotoxins?
  Neurotoxins are injectable medications (such as Botox®, Dysport®, Xeomin®, Jeuveau®, and Daxxify®) that temporarily relax targeted facial muscles. This softens lines caused by expression, such as frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead wrinkles, while preserving natural expression when done correctly.
• Is this the same as surgical jaw contouring?
  No. Surgery changes the bone permanently. Non-surgical contouring uses filler and Botox, is done in under an hour, has no downtime and is reversible. For many people it achieves the look they want without an operation.
• Is it safe?
  When performed by a trained medical professional, neurotoxins have an excellent safety record and have been used safely for decades. We review your medical history to ensure treatment is appropriate for you.
• Can jawline filler look natural on a woman?
  Yes. For women we aim for a clean, lifted line rather than a hard angle. The amount and placement are very different from a male plan.
• How much does it cost?
  Pricing is based on:
  
  • number of units used
  
  • treatment area
  
  • product type
  
  A personalized plan and cost estimate are reviewed before treatment, so there are no surprises.
