Botox treatment is a simple, painless injection that takes only a few minutes to administer. There is no downtime or post treatment considerations.
Results should begin to show within 2-4 days but the full effect will not be realized until after 2 weeks.
Botox is designed to last 3-4 months however under dosing for budget constraints or your individual metabolism and movement of the area may cause your Botox to break down sooner.
No, at Subtle Aesthetics Skin Solutions we pride ourselves in using experience, knowledge of anatomical structures in your face and a conservative approach to keep you looking natural and enhanced.
When it comes to Botox the number of units needed depends on the area being treated, your facial anatomy, and goals. While every treatment plan is individualized there is a general breakdown of how many units are commonly used in treatment areas:
Forehead lines: 10-20 units
Frown lines (the 11’s between brows): 15-25 units
Crow’s feet (around eyes): 6-12 units per side
Bunny lines (on the nose): 4-6 units
Chin dimples: 5-8 units
Jaw slimming or clenching (TMJ): 15-25 units per side
Longevity depends on the area treated, the product used, your metabolism, and your treatment goals. Some areas break filler down faster than others. During your consultation, we recommend the most appropriate option based on the area being treated and the result you want.
That is always the goal. Our approach focuses on balance, structure, and subtle enhancement so you still look like yourself — just more refreshed, balanced, and defined.
There is no one-size-fits-all number. It depends on your anatomy, the area being treated, your starting volume, facial proportions, and whether your goal is subtle refinement or more visible structure.
Most clients return to regular daily activities quickly, but swelling, tenderness, and bruising can last up to 2 weeks depending on the area filled. Arnica is a helpful supplement that can be taken prior to your dermal filler appointment and continued for the 2 week healing period.
IV vitamin therapy delivers customized blends of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and fluids directly into your blood stream, completely bypassing the digestive system. This method allows for rapid absorption with full bioavailability of the nutrients helping to support hydration, immune health, and energy.
A small IV line will be placed into your vein, similar to when having a standard blood test. Most sessions last between 30-60 minutes, during which you can relax, watch a movie, read or nap. Benefits from the vitamin drips are individualized and can vary in the experienced effects.
Frequency can vary depending on individual treatment plans. While some people have a vitamin drip multiple times a week, others benefit from a drip monthly or a few times yearly.
