Answer Snippet

Is scheduling Botox appointments at shorter intervals more economical in the long run?

You should be fine to wait longer intervals between appointments.
Aug 27, 2019

Great question. In some cases, BOTOX® can have a preventative effect, so it would make sense that you’re seeing fewer wrinkles pop up with long-term use. If you’re seeing results that last more than 3 to 4 months, there shouldn’t be a need to return for a touch-up appointment any sooner. If you’re not seeing lines on your face, you shouldn’t need more BOTOX. You might consider asking your provider why he or she recommends that you come in more frequently and whether the pricing might chan...

Does drinking coffee or caffeine drinks have any long term effects on fillers under the eyes?

Coffee shouldn’t directly affect your fillers.
Aug 27, 2019

Hello, and thanks for your question. While coffee shouldn’t directly affect the absorption rate of fillers or your results, it can have separate effects on your skin. Caffeine consumption can cause dehydration, which can make the skin appear less voluminous and even a little “sunken in,” especially in areas like under your eyes, where the skin is thinner. When drinking coffee, make sure you’re drinking plenty of water as well.

If you still have concerns about your filler results, don’t h...

What is the best treatment for stomach fat and inner thighs?

CoolSculpting is a good option
Jul 26, 2019

Judging by your photos, you could be a good candidate for CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting is a non-invasive procedure that can help reduce some of that stubborn fat without the downtime of more invasive procedures. It can permanently destroy up to 20 to 25 percent of the fat cells in each area and will help you achieve that toned look you desire. Talk with a certified CoolSculpting specialist for a personalized consultation to see if it's right for your needs. Good luck!

CoolSculpting on 'Man Boobs' - Would the procedure cause a problem with a Coronary Stent be cause

CoolSculpting Could Help
Jul 26, 2019

CoolSculpting can be a great way to remove excess subcutaneous fat in the chest area. Depending on your specific needs, you may need a few treatments to maximize results. Because this technique only targets the fat, it should not go deep enough to cause any problems with your stent. To know for sure, talk to a certified CoolSculpting specialist that will go over your medical history before the procedure and help determine if you are a good candidate. Hope this helps.

Is it normal for Botox in the forehead and around the eyes to wear off after two months?

BOTOX® typically wears off in 3 to 4 months.
Jun 24, 2019

While BOTOX® typically lasts 3 to 4 months, there are a number of reasons that it might wear off sooner than that. Anything from a client's metabolism to the specific batch of BOTOX could potentially affect its lifespan. There's no cause for concern, although I understand that it is inconvenient. You should discuss your outcomes and concerns with your BOTOX practitioner when you schedule your next injections. They may be able to shed a little light on your specific situation.

What is the best non-surgical option for my stubborn stomach fat/loose skin? I'm 5'5 and 128 lbs.

CoolSculpting® can help contour your stubborn stomach.
Jun 24, 2019

CoolSculpting® is one of the least invasive body contouring procedures available today and, based on your description and photos, it could be the solution to your stubborn stomach. If you're already close to your ideal goal weight, coolSculpting can help you find your ideal shape. Schedule a consultation to see whether or not you're a good candidate for the procedure and what results you can reasonably expect. Just remember that results are not immediate. It could take 2 to 3 treatments to ...

Is it safe to do vigorous exercise 9 hours after Botox?

It’s generally recommended to avoid vigorous exercise 24 hours after BOTOX®.
May 29, 2019

Great question, thanks for asking. Most physicians will recommend that you avoid very strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours after getting BOTOX. The main concern is that strenuous exercise soon after your injections could cause the product to move and may affect your final results. It may also increase the risk of bruising. Talk with your provider about your specific situation. Perhaps you could reschedule your BOTOX appointment for after the gym interview? Best of luck.

Should I get CoolSculpting, Lipo or mini tummy tuck?

You may be a better candidate for a tummy tuck than CoolSculpting®.
May 29, 2019

Hello, and thank you for your question and photos. While CoolSculpting can very nicely remove stubborn pockets of fat, it won’t address excess skin or stretch marks. Since you appear to have some excess skin in addition to stubborn belly fat, you may see the best results with a tummy tuck over CoolSculpting.

As for stretch marks, a tummy tuck may remove some of them if they happen to be located in the area of excess skin that is removed during your procedure. Keep in mind that a tu...

Lines above eyebrows and bad Botox - What do I do? Just let it wear off?

BOTOX® will fade away within a few months if you’re unhappy with your results.
Apr 18, 2019

Hi there, and sorry to hear you’ve had a frustrating experience. How long has it been since you’ve had your injections? Keep in mind that it can take up to two weeks to see your final results, so if you’re still within this window, I would recommend giving it some more time before judging your results. If it’s been over two weeks, what you’re seeing now is likely your final result and you’d have two options: 1) to simply let the BOTOX wear away on its own, which usually takes 3 to 6 months...

Swelling or too much filler? (More than 72 hours post tear trough treatment - w/ photos)

Wait a few more days before assessing your results.
Apr 18, 2019

At just three days after your tear trough filler appointment, it’s too early to tell what your final results will look like, as you’re still experiencing some swelling. It can take up to two weeks for all swelling to subside and for the product to settle into place. I would recommend giving it some more time before deciding if you’d like to have the filler removed (provided it’s a hyaluronic acid filler). The pineapple and arnica may help to reduce swelling and bruising, so keep up with wh...

I had Botox 5 days ago. I noticed one eyebrow going higher than the other on day 2. Will it correc

Results of BOTOX® after two days.
Mar 19, 2019

The results of your BOTOX® may not be complete just two days after injection. Full results could take up to two weeks to be complete. After that time, if you're still experiencing your uneven eyebrows, you should contact your provider and see about having a correction made. Until then, be patient with the process and hang tight until your results are final.

What are my options to get rid of my frown lines at the age of 37?

Options for frown lines.
Mar 19, 2019

Unfortunately, there's no turning back the hands of time and completely eliminating your frown lines. Botox® can, however, be a great option for softening these lines and can last 3 to 4 months, with the possibility of less frequent treatments over time. Your best bet may be to schedule a consultation to discuss BOTOX® and other skincare options with a qualified professional. You can also discuss preventative measures to make sure your forehead wrinkles don't get any deeper.

Is noticeable odor normal after miraDry?

Reassess your results in 1 to 2 weeks.
Feb 18, 2019

Although miraDry™ treatments usually take effect immediately or very shortly after your treatment, it is possible that your body needs more time to process the treated sweat glands. Additionally, some people may see the best results after a second miraDry treatment. If you’re still not satisfied with your results in a week or two, check back in with your provider to discuss your options.

Price of injectables to remove slight wrinkles?

You may be a good candidate for BOTOX® or fillers.
Feb 18, 2019

Hello, and thanks for your question. Without a photo, it’s difficult to say if you might be a better candidate for injectables, a brow lift or both. However, if you are combatting wrinkles around your eyes and in your forehead area, BOTOX may be the most effective solution for you. Dermal fillers are typically used in the mid-face region and to add volume to the cheeks and lips.
The cost of these treatments can vary from practice to practice, but be wary of “shopping around” based solel...

There’s no downtime after CoolSculpting®.
Jan 17, 2019

Great questions. There’s no downtime after CoolSculpting, so you should be able to go back to work on Monday. The treated area may be slightly sore or tender, but most people find that they’re able to get back to their normal routine shortly after their appointment. The best candidates for CoolSculpting will already be close to their target weight, but with small pockets of stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to exercise. It can take up to about three months to see your full results, so if yo...
