What services do you offer?

What are cosmetic injectables, and how do they work?

Cosmetic injectables, including BOTOX® and dermal fillers, are minimally invasive treatments designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss. Botox works by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles, while dermal fillers add volume and smoothness to the skin.

How do I know which injectable treatment is right for me?

During your consultation, we will assess your individual needs and aesthetic goals. Based on your desired outcomes, we’ll recommend the most appropriate treatments to achieve the best results. Book your consultation here.

What can I expect during a cosmetic injectable appointment?

Your appointment will begin with a consultation to discuss your goals and any concerns. The treatment itself is quick, with Botox® usually taking 15 to 30 minutes, and filler taking about 45 minutes to an hour including numbing, depending on the areas being treated. You may experience slight discomfort, but we use techniques to minimize any pain. There’s little to no downtime, so you can return to your regular activities right away. You should not return to regular activities within the first 24 hours.

How long do the results of cosmetic injectables last?

Results vary depending on the type of injectable and individual factors. Botox® typically lasts three to four months, while dermal fillers can last anywhere from six months to two years. Regular maintenance appointments can help prolong the effects.

What is your approach to medical weight loss?

Our medical weight loss program is customized to your specific needs, combining evidence-based strategies such as nutritional guidance, exercise recommendations, and, if appropriate, prescription medications. We provide ongoing support and adjustments to ensure your weight loss journey is safe, effective, and sustainable.

How soon will I see results from the medical weight loss program?

Results vary based on your starting point, adherence to the program, and individual metabolism. Some patients begin to see changes within a few weeks, while others may take a bit longer. Our goal is to promote steady, sustainable weight loss for long-term success.

Are there any side effects from the treatments?

All procedures carry some risk of side effects, but we prioritize your safety and comfort. Common side effects of cosmetic injectables include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. For medical weight loss, side effects vary depending on the medications used. We’ll thoroughly discuss potential risks during your consultation.

How should I prepare for my appointment?

For cosmetic injectables, it’s best to avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and certain supplements for a few days prior to treatment to minimize the risk of bruising. For medical weight loss, come prepared to discuss your medical history, lifestyle, and weight loss goals.

What should I do after receiving an injectable treatment?

After receiving an injectable treatment, it's recommended to avoid touching or massaging the treated area, refrain from strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours, and avoid alcohol or blood-thinning medications. You should also steer clear of strenuous exercise that causes you to sweat, along with hot tubs and saunas.

What is your cancellation policy?

What are injectables like BOTOX® and Dysport® used for?

Injectables like BOTOX®, Dysport®, Jeuveau, DAXXIFY®, and Xeomin® are primarily used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause these facial expressions. The toxin chosen will be discussed and geared toward your aesthetic treatment goals. They are commonly used to treat forehead lines, crow's feet around the eyes, and frown lines between the eyebrows. Additionally, these injectables can be used for medical purposes, such as treating excessive sweating, migraines, or muscle spasms. The effects usually last for several months, and treatments can be repeated as needed.

How do medical weight loss injectables work?

Medical weight loss injectables, such as Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, work by mimicking hormones that regulate appetite and insulin levels. These injectables help reduce hunger, increase feelings of fullness, and improve blood sugar control, leading to weight loss. They are often used in combination with diet and exercise to enhance effectiveness. The treatment targets the body's metabolism, helping individuals achieve sustainable weight loss over time. It's important to follow a healthcare provider's guidance when using these injectables.
