COSMETIC INJECTABLES

Neuromodulators are used to target and relax small muscles of the face to reduce or even eliminate the lines on the forehead, between the eyes and around the eyes. The injection usually becomes apparent within 3-7 days with full result at approximately 14 days. The treatment generally lasts for approximately four months.

When will I see results from a BOTOX treatment and how long does it last?

The treatment is usually done in about 15 minutes, and no recovery time is needed. Within days, you should see a marked improvement in the moderate to severe facial frown lines. Lines continue to improve for up to two weeks and results can last for up to 3-4 months. If three treatments are done consequently, subsequent treatments should extend beyond three months. Those that follow this routine should find their BOTOX treatments last for six months. Only needing to be done two times per year!

​Is BOTOX Cosmetics Safe?

BOTOX Cosmetics has been used for the past twenty years, but has been licensed in Canada since 1990. It has been used to treat many diseases. BOTOX Cosmetics is an approved prescription drug and is approved by the FDA and the Health Protection Branch in Canada.

​Is treatment with BOTOX painful?

Discomfort is usually minimal and brief. Because the needles are very fine, most patients compare the sensation to a bug bite. No sedation or local anesthetic is required. Normal activity can be resumed immediately afterwards.

Will my facial expressions continue to look natural?

Although the results are visible, a treatment with BOTOX Cosmetics will not radically change your facial appearance or make you look as if you “had work done” or unnatural. The muscle activity that causes frown lines between the brows make you look angrier and more stressed than what you are. BOTOX Cosmetic simply reduces this appearance, so you can still frown or look surprised without the wrinkles and creases between your brows.

Injectable fillers are used to naturally fill and restore or enhance lip and facial contours. They are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in the body’s connective tissue and skin. Once injected, they plump up facial skin that may have lost volume and elasticity and provide a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.

 How long will it last? 

Results can last up to 24 months, depending on the treatment chosen. 

​Are Juvederm treatments painful? 

Juvederm contains pain-reducing lidocaine which can help reduce discomfort during the procedure. There are a range of formulations, designed to treat different areas of the face, and visible results can be seen shortly after treatment.

 How long before I see results?

Results are instant. You will see an immediate improvement in the treatment area. Most people need one treatment to achieve an optimal outcome. Supplemental “touch-up” treatments may be required to achieve and maintain the desired look.
