  • Full results take 2 weeks, but expect to notice a change in 4-7 days. Please make sure to wait a full 2 weeks before scheduling a follow-up appointment.

  • Bruising is uncommon, but can happen. To prevent bruising avoid alcohol, caffeine, and ibuprofen a few days prior to your appointment and immediately after.

  • Headaches can happen after neurotoxin injections, especially after your first time. We recommend taking an OTC analgesic if this occurs.

  • Results typically last 3-4 months, but vary per person. If you frequently exercise or have a fast metabolism, you may need injected more often or with higher doses.

  • Immediately after treatment you may notice some redness and small bumps which are normal and will go down in approximately 15 minutes. You should avoid touching your face, laying down for 3-4 hours, and exercise for 24 hours. You may resume your usual skincare routine in the evening.

LIP FILLER

  • You will see an immediate change, but please note that swelling, bruising, lumps, and bumps are normal for the first 2 weeks. Trust the process!

  • Bruising is likely, so plan accordingly. To prevent bruising avoid alcohol, caffeine, and ibuprofen a few days prior to your appointment and immediately after. You can also take arnica.

  • We will always try to reach your aesthetic goals, but remember everyone and their anatomy is different. Do NOT compare yourself to someone else; you are unique and your lips may respond differently than your favorite celebrity or inspo pic.

  • Results typically last 6-9 months, but vary per person based on multiple factors including product used and an individual’s metabolism/lifestyle. We have seen results last as little as 2 months and up to 18 months.

  • Immediately after treatment you will notice some redness, swelling, and tenderness. If you like your filler right away, you’ll love it in 2 weeks as the work begins to settle and will likely want more. If you are worried about the size/swelling, don’t fret… your lips will start to feel and look more natural in no time!

    WHEN CAN I RESUME NORMAL ACTIVITIES?

    We recommend waiting 72 hours. This includes working out, making out ;-), drinking from a straw, and flying.

    HOW SOON CAN I GET MORE FILLER INJECTED?

    We recommend waiting 2 weeks at a minimum, but prefer you wait at least 4.

  • Most peels are quick and take about 15-20 minutes.

  • Peeling depends on the type of peel used. Some are very mild and you may experience no peeling. Others, expect the peeling to start 2-3 days later and full results in 7-10 days. Do NOT manually peel your skin off.

  • You may experience some slight stinging during the peel application, but this does not last.

  • HOW DO I CARE FOR MY SKIN?

    We recommend using a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and SPF. Do not over apply moisturizing and SPF products, and if you can wait 48-72 hours before applying them it would be preferred.

    CAN I WEAR MAKEUP?

    This depends on the depth of your peel and the type of makeup being used. We recommend you consult with your esthetician.
