FAQ
What is the difference between Botox and dermal fillers?
Botox is a treatment used to relax muscles and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, typically in the forehead, crow’s feet, and frown lines. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are used to add volume and fullness to areas such as the cheeks, lips, and around the mouth. Both treatments complement each other to achieve a more youthful look.
Can I combine different skincare treatments?
Yes, many of our treatments can be combined for enhanced results. For example, you can pair Botox with dermal fillers or microneedling with LED light therapy. During your consultation, we will recommend the best combination of treatments for your skin type and concerns.
How long do results from skincare treatments last?
The longevity of results depends on the specific treatment. Botox results last around 3 to 4 months, while dermal fillers can last between 6 to 18 months. Chemical peels and microneedling results can last several months, but ongoing treatments are recommended for maintenance.
How often should I get Botox treatments?
Botox treatments are typically needed every 3 to 4 months to maintain optimal results. However, the frequency can vary depending on individual factors such as the treated areas and your body’s response to the treatment.
What age should I start getting Botox?
There’s no specific age to start Botox, but many people begin in their late 20s to early 30s as a preventative measure to reduce the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. It’s important to have a personalised consultation to assess your individual needs.
Can Botox help with excessive sweating?
Yes, Botox is not only used for cosmetic purposes but also as a treatment for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating). Botox injections can help block the nerves responsible for sweat production, providing relief for up to 6 months.
