FAQs about Botulinum toxin
What exactly does Botulinum toxin do?
Botulinum toxin is injected to prevent a muscle from moving for a limited time. We can strategically target specific areas of your face to create a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance. Rather than simply erasing every line on your face, my approach focuses on enhancing your natural beauty and helping you feel confident in your own skin.
How quickly does botulinum toxin take effect?
It typically start showing results within one to four days, but effects on your muscle start immediately. It can take up to 10-14 days for the final results to settle depending on how much was injected, your lifestyle choices after treatment, and various other factors,
How long does botulinum toxin lasts?
Eventually, the botulinum toxin starts to wear off, and your nerves will start to send signals to the muscles to start moving again. Every patient is different and the lasting effect varies depending on different factors. Typically it lasts 3-4 months, in some patients it can be longer up to 6 months, and shorter for other patients
Where can botulinum toxin be injected?
We will talk through the issues that you have and I will recommend the areas we will treat based on that. There are various areas on the face that we can inject with botulinum toxin, such as the forehead, upper eyebrow, between eyebrows, crow's feet, lips, mouth corners, bunny lines, smile lines, masseters, and neck bands, amongst others. We can also inject botulinum toxin to treat migraines and excessive sweating.
FAQs about Fillers
What are fillers used for?
We use fillers to change the shape, sculpt the face to have different proportions, and improve volume loss. Fillers can correct moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and skin folds. We can increase fullness in lips, cheeks, chins, and under-eye hollows and sculpt jawlines, chins and noses. We will discuss your issues and I will make a recommendation on how we can achieve your goals.
How long do fillers last?
This depends on the area being treated. Dermal fillers used to smooth wrinkles can last up to 6-12 months. Deeper injections can last up to a year, and newer injections can last up to two years.
What is the difference between fillers and botulinum toxin injections?
Fillers and botulinum toxin are two types of injectables that are injected with a needle. The biggest difference between botulinum toxin injection and fillers is that botulinum toxin targets the movement of the muscle to smooth wrinkles, whereas fillers improve loss of volume and can be used to sculpt the face to enhance your facial features.
Can filler lift your face?
As we get older our facial features experience a loss of volume especially under the eye, cheeks, and jawline. We use filler to add volume back into these areas. By injecting filler we can change the shape and sculpt your face to enhance your natural features.

Pout Perfection!
When it comes to creating beautiful lips, the absence of problems isn't enough. We must focus on the specific aesthetic goal we want to achieve.
Different faces require different approaches to lip enhancement. For example, some faces benefit from plumper, more voluminous lips, while others with a more elegant facial type prefer a more understated look.
In my practice, I often refer to these two types of faces as the "gypsies" and the "pixies." But ultimately, what matters most is creating the best version of your lips.
Sometimes, all that's needed is hydration.
