Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Will Accutane help redness, flushing & mild swelling?
Accutane and Rosacea
Mar 29, 2022
Yes - Accutane should help with your Rosacea and it can potentially improve the KP. It's hard to evaluate the facial swelling you are mentioning here so an in-person assessment is recommended. Accutane is a great medication but requires close monitoring. Please follow-up with a board-certified dermatologist. Best of luck!
Tanning beds on Accutane - is there an increased harm?
Accutane and Sunburns
Mar 29, 2022
Accutane will make you more photosensitive - meaning an increased sensitivity to UV light. I advise all of my patients taking Accutane that they have an increased risk for experiencing bad sun burns. Proper sun protection is strongly recommended. In general, tanning beds are NEVER a good option! Tanning beds emit 3-6 times the amount of radiation given off by the sun. They greatly increase your risk for all skin cancers (including melanoma) and age your skin faster. Spray tans are a good...
Any exercises or medicine I can take for severe headache after Botox?
Headache after Botox
Mar 29, 2022
Patients who experience headaches after Botox injections usually will experience relief with Tylenol or Advil. Check with your cosmetic provider before your next appointment to see what he or she recommends to mitigate discomfort. Remember to avoid Advil prior to injections for 1-2 weeks to decrease risk of bruising.
What procedure would be best to five my a more desirable lip shape?
Lip Filler v. Lip Flip
Mar 14, 2022
Adding lip filler would be a great option for you before doing a Botox "lip flip." You can start by adding a syringe of filler to add volume to the upper lip which would help improve the shape and balance the upper lip with the lower lip fullness. Adding lip filler can also correct minor asymmetries of the lip and improve hydration. Please make sure to have an in-person consultation with an experienced injector!
Botox + Tattoos - Any concerns about scheduling treatments this close together?
Botox and Tattoo
Mar 14, 2022
As long as you are not getting tattooed where the Botox is being injected, then there is no contraindication for having these procedures performed independently of one another. You can have Botox injected the same day as getting your forearm tattoo. Best of luck!
How deep are DAO injections?
DAO Botox
Feb 21, 2022
These are very superficial injections (approximately 2 -3 mm) with a very fine needle. The injection is not painful and very well tolerated by most patients. Please see an experienced injector as the DAO can sometimes be a trickier muscle to locate and inject properly. Best of luck!
Can a high protein intake of 70-100g daily effect botox results?
Botox and Protein
Feb 21, 2022
Thank you for your question. I do not believe your diet will affect longevity of your Botox results. The effect from Botox will last approximately 3 months. Please see an experienced injector for best results. Take care!
How long do I need to wait after Botox to start yoga inversion exercises?
Botox Migration
Feb 21, 2022
It sounds more like the Botox may have migrated due to poor injection technique. I allow patients to exercise 4 hours after the initial injection. You would want to avoid vigorous exercise for 4 hours after injection to mitigate risk of bruising. You should be able to practice yoga after Botox injections with little to no risk of migration.
Silk peel vs. regular exfoliation?
Exfoliation and DiamondGlow
Feb 7, 2022
The answer to this question will depend on what type of skin you have. DiamondGlow facials every 2 weeks should be sufficient enough to keep your skin looking healthy, glowy and exfoliated. I don't suggest exfoliating face washes because these can tend to be a bit irritating for the skin. You may want to consult with your dermatologist about incorporating skincare products in your daily regimen that contain retinol. Retinol can help produce collagen, reduce fine lines, and increase skin cell...
Botox for square jaw from TMJ
Botox for TMJ
Feb 4, 2022
Thank you for your question! The amount of Botox required to achieve relief from grinding is dependent on how hypertrophied/strong the masseter muscle feels during the assessment. An average amount for this area could be anywhere from 12-24 units per side. Some patients who have had these injections for years do tell me that they do not grind anymore. I think this could possibly be a learned habit from not being able to use the muscles are strongly as before. Please make sure to consult with...
11’s/frown lines - is filler risk worth it in this area?
Dermal Filler for 11's
Feb 4, 2022
Correcting this area can be done but this is a very high risk area and you absolutely must see a professional who has experience injecting the glabella. Do your research and ask the provider if he or she has a plan in place to treat ocular occlusion should this rare emergency happen. I use Belotero to fill this area but I have over 20 years of experience injecting. Once this area is corrected with filler, you should stay regimented in treating the brow with Botox every 3-4 months in order to...
Will Juvederm Voluma help with my sagging lower face and marionette lines?
Voluma
Feb 4, 2022
Thank you for the question and photos! From what I can see in this photo, you could benefit from 1-2 vials of Voluma placed strategically along the cheekbones to help soften the appearance of the naso-labial folds, enhance the cheekbone projection and possibly help balance out the lower face. For full facial balance and harmony, you could do 1-2 vials of dermal filler in the lower face (melo-labial fold, lower mouth corners, and chin). You may also benefit from a non-invasive skin tightening...
Will Botox smooth a wrinkly smile around eyes?
Botox for smile lines
Feb 4, 2022
Thank you for this question! You can definitely use Botox to smooth out the lateral peri-orbital lines (crow's feet). The lines below your crow's feet are caused by the muscle responsible for smiling (Zygomaticus). This muscle should be avoided during Botox injection because it can result in lateral lip paralysis and drooping of the oral commissure. Alternative therapies for this area are Laser Resurfacing and PRP to smooth fine lines and improve skin texture. Skincare products (such as...
How much can botox shrink my masseters?
Masseter Botox
Feb 4, 2022
The amount of Botox required varies per patient and an in-person assessment would be required to accurately answer this question. An average range could be anywhere from 10-20 units of Botox per side. I have found that the muscle tends to shrink in size after 1-2 treatments. The masseter will not get bigger if you keep up with the Botox injections every 4-6 months.
How could I make my face more symmetrical, feminine and youthful?
Symmetry and youthful
Aug 29, 2019
Thank you for the question!  You could consider treatments with dermal fillers and neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport).  Botox along the brow and in the forehead can create symmetry and lift the brow.  It’s a good idea to start doing Botox regularly preventatively before deep wrinkles form.  You could also consider restoring volume to the under eyes and cheek bones.  There are a plethora of different options so I would recommend a formal consult with a physician with cosmetic experience that y...
