Frequently asked questions about facial treatments

​

Are Treatments Painless?

Dental practitioners are experts in injections and anesthetic techniques resulting in no pain or minimal discomfort during treatments.  The needles used are also extremely fine and the injections are very quick.

​

How Long do treatments last?

Depending on the area treated,  Juvederm can last 9 months or longer.  Botox can last 3-6 months, sometimes longer.  

​

What is the difference between Botox and Juvederm?

Depending on your desired result your doctor will use Botox, Juvederm or a combination of both to enhance your appearance.   Botox relaxes facial muscles to prevent new wrinkles from forming and slightly soften existing wrinkles in the area.

Juvederm is used to instantly fill and smooth out existing deeper  wrinkles and folds where appropriate.

​

Is the treatment safe?

Botox is one of the safest cosmetic  procedures available, only a small amount is used when doing a procedure.

Juvederm is hyaluronic acid, which is produced naturally in the body.
