Frequently Asked Questions: | |||
I’ve been thinking about Botox® Cosmetics and Restylane®. What is the difference and do they hurt? |
Great question! Botox® Cosmetics is an injectable medication that is used to relax the muscles that pull our brows, foreheads, corner of eyes and mouths. The wrinkles in these areas relax and are smoothed out, creating a more youthful appearance. Botox® Injections will smart during the insertion, but for the most part patients tolerate the discomfort very well. Restylane® is a thick, injectable filler used to plump lips and elevate the creasing of wrinkles. The injection is painful, but there is a numbing medication applied before hand, we can also arrange a dental block that numbs the lips and nasolabial folds to give you complete comfort during the filler treatment. |

| I really don’t like needles. What can you offer for my spider veins? |
Who does like needles?? We use injectable therapy for first line approach to spider veins and the feeders that are creating them. We also have the Lumenis Vasculite, Laserscope's Gemini and Alma's Harmony which have several different modalities for treating veins. You can trust we will do everything we can to ensure your comfort during all treatments at the clinic. |

| I’ve seen ads for microdermabrasion at lower costs, why should I come to you? |
Not all microdermabrasion treatments are created equal. There are varying levels of machines that are touted to perform these microdermabrasions. We only purchase top of the line, state-of-the-art, and scientifically tested equipment. The providers are licensed and trained extensively in the care of skin. Our sessions last over one hour, and include a pre- and post-microdermabrasion facial. There are no add-on costs for the individualized skin care products used for your treatment. If you need moisturization, you get that. If you need a clay mask for problem skin, you receive that. Why come to us? Because if you aren’t getting results, we aren’t doing our job. |

Will insurance reimburse the costs for my treatment? |
Insurance plans are so unique that it depends upon what service you are receiving and for what reason. Usually, insurance does not cover any ‘cosmetic’ procedures. Feel free to ask us for our experience, and of course, call your insurance company to find out the details of your coverage. |
|||
| I started treatments and my skin looks worse. What’s happening? |
If you are treating acne, rosacea and/or have very sensitive skin, you may feel your skin becomes more aggravated at first. We have years of experience in the care of skin, so trust us. We address each client individually, and don’t offer you a cookie cutter approach to skin care management. It is common for the skin to flare up during the initial process of purging the blocked pores, and balancing the pH of the skin. Call your care provider with ANY concerns. We can always make adjustments in your at-home skin care regimen. |
|||
| I need to cancel my appointment, what should I do?
|
Just give us a call and we can reschedule you for another appointment. Of course, the earlier you can let us know the better. We have a 24 hour cancellation policy for non emergency situations. A $50 rebooking fee will be required by credit card for missed appointments. Once you start your treatments and meet our staff, you won’t want to miss an appointment! |
