No Down Time Facial Rejuvenation Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Microdermabrasion

Most patients see improvement after a single treatment. Microdermabrasions of varying depths may be combined with chemical peels also of varying depths to give very dramatic results. These medical spa skin care treatments are usually administered by a physician or under the direction of one.

Microdermabrasion works best when your skin is prepared. A physician-supervised skincare regimen optimizes the outcome of microdermabrasion.

BOTOX®

  1. Bruising. Be sure to advise your plastic surgeon of any blood thinning products you are taking or if you bruise easily.
  2. Shortened effect of BOTOX®. There are a few patients in whom BOTOX® will not work. In addition, the effects of BOTOX® are dependent on the amount of product used. A small amount used over the entire face will diminish the effects of BOTOX®.

No, BOTOX® does not require any test dose, and you can return to work right after injection.

Fillers

No. Fillers like Restylane® may be used in moderate amounts to produce a subtle but attractive fullness to the lips with correction of fine lines at the lip borders.

Yes. These injectables may be used on different parts of the face to complement each other, with the correction to wrinkles of the forehead, around the eyes, lips, and nose.
