First Time With Botox? No Worries

 How can you express your needs to our team at Aesthetics by Silvie?

Well, it is pretty easy! It's less about the words and more about being open about your feelings about Botox. Get a mirror from your provider and start talking about what you want to change. This can be particular, such as "I want to change the appearance of these lines on my face," or more general, such as "My face feels exhausted." A professional service provider will gather this data and create a customised plan to address your problems. After all, helping you look and feel fantastic is our passion.

How Do You Know How Many Units Someone Requires?

A dose is calculated using a variety of factors, including muscle strength and size, therapeutic goals, and more. There are standardised doses and placements available, but to achieve the greatest results for your face, it should be customised to all the beautiful faces out there and take all factors into consideration.

Is Numbing Cream Needed Before The Needles?

Botox is a short procedure, and the needles used at Aesthetics by Silvie are quite small. The majority of people are astonished at how quick and painless the procedure is (sometimes 5 minutes or less). Some of my patients had previously been numbed in other facilities, and when we treated them without numbing, they didn't notice a difference. The most important factor is to use a gentle and slower technique when it comes to pain.

What Does Botox Feel Like While Injecting? 

Pinching or stinging sensations are common. It's similar to plucking brow hairs but less intense. The sensation is only present for the duration of the injection.

Is It Better To Do Botox In One Areas At A Time Or All Areas At Once?

It all comes down to face balance. I'd do everything at once if your provider recommends different regions.

Tips For preventing anxiety Or Nervousness During Appointments

It may seem stupid, but feeling faint is often more emotional than physical. Two important points: Trust. You will feel far less nervous about the therapy and the results if you trust your practitioner. Hydration and the right nutrition, drinking water, and eating before your appointment can help you stay on track. Breath. During treatment, I may direct a patient's breathing. You can relax and divert yourself by inhaling during each injection.

Bruising, How About It?

It's not uncommon to have a tiny bruise post-treatment. If it happens, it is usually a little one that disappears shortly. I'm a peach, and if you touch me, I bruise! You can lower your odds by avoiding things that are 'thinning of your blood' before therapy. This includes over-the-counter NSAIDs like ibuprofen and aspirin and omega-3/fish-oil supplements. Also, stay away from alcohol. Arnica can help minimise swelling and bruising before and after therapy.

Can Botox Assist Me With My Crepey Under-Eye Skin?

Other methods, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), can better address the problem of crepey skin by strengthening the skin and improving the overall appearance of the under-eye. On the other hand, Botox can operate in tandem with PRP to smooth the surrounding skin. At Aesthetics by Silvie, we routinely combine the two for general eye brightening and rejuvenation.

Can You Have Botox In Your Cheeks?

Botox is fantastic for SO many things but should not be administered straight into your cheeks.

Will Sagging Re-occur When Botox Wears Off?

This is something I've heard previously, but I'm not sure who originated the rumour. Sagging has not been linked to Botox. Because Botox can produce a modest lift, particularly in the brows, people may mistake this 'back to baseline' brow for sagging because they are accustomed to their gorgeous brow lift.
