Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
What kind of medical procedure can fix my acne scarring between my eyebrows?
Scarring between eyebrows
Jul 15, 2019
Microneedling with radiofrequency works well for scarring . If you choose filler in addition , please choose your provider carefully . This area poses a risk of intravsascular injection with potential serious side effects. Make sure they have experience . Best of luck.
Botox to eyes - I’ve been told by 2 injectors I can’t botox my eyes without my forehead. Is this tru
Botox for crows feet
Jul 15, 2019
Botox can be used in crows feet by themselves . The areas that do best together are glabella (between eyes furrow) and forehead . Eyes can easily be done by themselves.
Can cheek implants turn a flat mid face area into a cheek with an "ogee curve"?
Cheek implants contouring face .
Jul 15, 2019
The ogee curve of the cheeks flattens with age . Contouring can be achieved with implants - but as your face changes this can look odd. I prefer doing Voluma to achieve a beautiful contoured cheek that can be adjusted over time .
I would like to know if I can get SculpSure in this area with a good result?
SculpSure for back fat
Jul 15, 2019
I have had SculpSure laser for 5 years. Best results are seen with areas that are stubborn fat areas. True sculpting . You are the Perfect candidate .
Two treatments 6 weeks apart should reduce the area .
Is it normal for Botox in the forehead and around the eyes to wear off after two months?
Botox wore off 2 months
May 18, 2019
Botox usually lasts 3 to 4 months. There are variables that can change this time frame. Exercise can increase the metabolism . If the vial has been open too long the Botox may not be as effective . There are also incidences of Botox antibodies that can form and decrease effectiveness . Check that what you are actually getting is Botox and not a shorter acting product . Please discuss your results with your injector .
Swollen lip, lumps or doctor mistake?
Swelling after filler
May 13, 2019
Swelling is to be expected after filler. This takes 2 to 4 weeks to resolve .
Recommend icing and calling your injector. You may want to go in for a check. Hope all goes well.
Repeat botox now? Should I do it now before it wears off entirely or wait? What would provide the be
Botox wearing off after 6 weeks.
Apr 21, 2019
Botox should last 3 to 4 months, 12 units is a very low amount for glabellar area. Usual treatment is 20 to 25 units with additional on the forehead. Make sure your provider is using fresh botox and have it injected again about 4 weeks prior to the wedding.
Best Filler for Lip Augmentation
Best filler for lips
Apr 21, 2019
The best fillers are Juvederm and Restylane. The best results are by someone who has a lot of experience in injecting. Ask to see before and after pictures and read reviews.
What can I do about my frown lines?
Treating frown lines
Apr 21, 2019
Combination of filler and botox will fill in the lines and lift the corners of the mouth. Make sure you see a reputable provider with experience.
Resuming Normal Routines After Botox and Juvederm?
resuming activity after Botox or Juvederm
Apr 21, 2019
Thank you for this question. I tell my patients not to exercise for 24 hours with Botox. Patients who have filler - depending on how much - may need to wait 2 to 3 days. Exercising increases blood flow and may cause increased swelling. It is best to let the swelling go down for a few days
Tear Trough Fillers: how do you know your physician is using a fresh product?
Product freshness
Apr 21, 2019
Fillers come in individual syringes in packages that are sealed with an expiration date on them. The provider should have the syringe with the labels and packaging in the room so you can ask to see it.
Each syringe label should be put in a log book with the lot number and expiration date. That allows you to see that the dates are current.
Botox also has an expiration on the box. The bottle should be dated each time it is opened. In busy practices like mine, we open...
Is it normal for a doctor to advertise certain fillers and then not offer them, or to limit the type
Doctors and the type of filler used.
Apr 21, 2019
There are many types of fillers on the market. Doctors chose which filler they use by their experience and knowledge of each filler. Ask to see before and after pictures of their patients and look at reviews. It is more about the results than the filler. Chose a reputable dermatologist or plastic surgeon to do your injections, They will have evaluated different fillers and chosen the ones that give the best and consistent results.
I had Botox for the first time on my crows feet and now 15 days after I have deep lines above my che
Under eye lines after Botox
Apr 21, 2019
Thank you for the question. Muscles in the face work together. When one is immobilized through Botox, another area my be more active. The lines under the eyes result from the muscles lateral to the eye being relaxed. The lines can be softened and corrected with small amount of Botox. Hopefully your injector is comfortable treating under the eyes.
Will my botox lessen over time gradually or does it stop working all at once?
How long Botox last?
Apr 21, 2019
Botox will reach its maximum effect after 2 weeks. It will gradually wear off and you will notice some movement between 2 and 3 months. Recommended treatment every 3 to 4 months to maintainability results.
It's a week after my Botox, and I feel I am scowling all of the time as if I can't relax. Can this b
Spock eyebrows after Botox
Apr 21, 2019
This can be corrected by injecting 2 units of Botox above the lateral eyebrows. It appears that too much Botox was injected into the central forehead, thereby letting the lateral brows still lift. Give it another week to fully settle in and then go back to your injector.
