Frequently Asked Questions

The actual injections take less than 5 minutes. However, we book 30-minute appointments to ensure we have ample time to discuss your goals, review your facial anatomy, and answer any questions.

The under-eye area is complex, which is why it should only be treated by an experienced medical professional. We use a blunt-tipped cannula instead of a sharp needle to significantly maximize safety and minimize bruising.

Aqualyx is highly effective, but patient selection is key. It works best on clients close to their ideal body weight who have localized, stubborn pockets of fat. It is not a general weight loss solution.

We charge a $50 consultation fee. However, this fee is fully redeemable against the cost of any treatment you proceed with on the day, acting as a deposit for our clinical time.

Good candidates have a true structural hollow without excessive under-eye bags or fluid retention. We must assess you in person to determine if filler is the safe and correct choice.

Yes, this is a highly safe, FDA-approved medical treatment for excessive sweating. It targets only the local sweat glands and does not affect your body's overall ability to cool itself.

This treatment is generally for adults who experience frequent, debilitating headaches (often defined as 15 or more headache days a month) and haven't found relief with standard medications.

The treatment itself takes about 15 to 20 minutes, though we allocate 45 minutes for your appointment to allow for a thorough consultation, mapping, and a slow, precise injection technique.

For the best results, a primary course of two treatments spaced 4 weeks apart is required. To maintain the glow, a single top-up treatment is recommended every 6 months.

The injections take just a few minutes. We book a 30-minute consultation slot to palpate the muscle, assess your bite strength, and determine the exact dosage required.

Light peels have zero downtime—just an instant glow. Deeper peels may result in 3 to 5 days of mild flaking and dryness as the old skin sloughs off.

The area looks delicate, but the treatment is surprisingly comfortable. The cannula glides smoothly under the skin, and the filler itself contains a numbing agent.

Yes, significant swelling is a normal and expected part of the fat dissolving process. It means the product is working. Swelling peaks at 48 hours and subsides over the next week.

Because it involves multiple injection sites, there is some mild discomfort, but we use ultra-fine needles. The entire process takes about 15 minutes and is very well tolerated by patients.

No. As a strict medical precaution, we do not perform any cosmetic injectable treatments on clients who are currently pregnant or breastfeeding.

We recommend waiting at least 48 to 72 hours before taking a long-haul flight. The changes in cabin pressure can exacerbate swelling in the freshly treated areas.

To prevent infection at the entry points, we ask that you wait at least 12 to 24 hours before applying concealer or any other makeup to the treated area.

We strongly recommend waiting 24 to 48 hours before applying makeup. Your skin's micro-channels are open, and applying makeup too soon can trap bacteria and cause breakouts or infection.

You must wait a minimum of 2 weeks after dissolving before we can place fresh filler. This allows all swelling to completely subside and ensures the dissolving enzyme is entirely out of your system.

Avoid lying down flat for 4 hours, intense exercise or sweating for 24 hours, and do not rub or massage the treated area to prevent the product from spreading to unwanted muscles.

We use neurotoxins (Botulinum Toxin) injected into the skin. This blocks the chemical signals from the nerves that tell your sweat glands to activate, effectively turning off the sweat production in that specific area.

We inject the masseter muscles (the large chewing muscles at the back of the jaw) to relax them. This stops the involuntary, intense clenching and grinding that causes TMJ pain.

Botulinum Toxin is a medically proven preventative for migraines. By relaxing the muscles in the forehead, neck, and shoulders, it reduces physical tension triggers and helps block the nerve pain signals sent to the brain.

When performed correctly by an experienced injector, it will not affect your smile. The masseter is a chewing muscle, not a smiling muscle. We carefully map the injection points to avoid the risorius (smile) muscle.

Botox temporarily blocks the release of acetylcholine, a chemical messenger that triggers your sweat glands. Without this signal, the glands simply do not produce sweat in the treated area.

The standard clinical protocol for chronic migraines involves approximately 30 to 40 shallow injections across specific points on the forehead, temples, back of the head, and upper neck.

Yes, this is a highly safe, FDA-approved medical treatment for excessive sweating. It targets only the local sweat glands and does not affect your body's overall ability to cool itself.

Yes, it often will. When the masseter muscle works less, it shrinks (atrophies). This is a highly desired side effect that slims a square, wide lower face into a softer, more oval contour.

This treatment is generally for adults who experience frequent, debilitating headaches (often defined as 15 or more headache days a month) and haven't found relief with standard medications.

The injections take just a few minutes. We book a 30-minute consultation slot to palpate the muscle, assess your bite strength, and determine the exact dosage required.

Yes, you will have small, localized bumps (like little bee stings) immediately after the injections as the product sits under the skin. These typically disperse and flatten out within 12 to 24 hours.

Yes, when used in its hyper-diluted form, Radiesse is one of the most effective treatments in the world for firming the jawline and tightening crepey skin on the neck.

Both are excellent skin boosters for the eyes. Rejuran (Polynucleotides) is highly regenerative, ideal for thickening thin skin and repairing damage. Sunekos is a blend of amino acids and HA, excellent for deep hydration and targeting dark circles.

Yes! Unlike lasers, which target pigment and can carry risks for darker skin types, microneedling is a mechanical process and is safe and highly effective for all Fitzpatrick skin types.

Profhilo is a bioremodelling skin booster made of pure hyaluronic acid. It spreads beneath the skin like honey, acting as an internal moisturiser while stimulating collagen.

Light peels have zero downtime—just an instant glow. Deeper peels may result in 3 to 5 days of mild flaking and dryness as the old skin sloughs off.

We cannot microneedle directly over active, inflamed acne as it can spread bacteria. We will first clear the acne (often using specific peels or skincare) before treating the scars.

The deep hydration and collagen stimulation effects generally last for around 6 months after your initial two-part treatment protocol.

Medical-grade professional peels use a much lower pH and a higher concentration of active acids than over-the-counter products, allowing them to penetrate deeper for clinical results.

The immediate glow from a chemical peel lasts a few weeks, but a course of peels provides long-term improvement in your skin's ability to retain moisture.
