To decrease the instance and severity of bruising, avoid the following prior to your appointment:

• Alcohol for 24 hours prior to your appointment.

• Blood thinning medications such as Aspirin and ibuprofen (Advil). Do not hold your Aspirin if you have been told to take a daily dose, but know you are more likely to bruise with needle pokes.

• Blood thinning supplements such as Omegas, Fish Oils, and Vitamin E.

Advise us if you have a history of:

• underlying neurological disorders

• swallowing difficulties

• breathing problems

Do not obtain injectable cosmetic treatments if any of the following apply:

• inflamed or infected skin

• hypersensitivity to any ingredient in the treatment product (egg or lidocaine allergies)

• are pregnant or breastfeeding

• you have a neurological disorder such as MS or ALS

• you are undergoing cancer treatment

Please reschedule if you are feeling unwell, there is no penalty for short notice rescheduling.

Your intake forms along with the initial consultation will determine your eligibility for any service. 

This is a medical service, therefore, NO TIPS are accepted

After your Treatment

Achieving the desired outcomes from neuromodulators are two fold; the dose and location of the injections but also successful aftercare once you leave your appointment. To optimize your results, please first follow the Preparation Guild and the following recommendations after your treatment:

After care is important and can help ensure the best possible results and minimize complications. For that reason, here are things to keep in mind: 

• DO NOT exercise, sauna, hot tub or otherwise increase heat and circulation to your face. You can plan these activities for either before your appointment or the next day. 
• It is important that you do not rub or massage the treated areas for 24 hours after your treatment. Gently washing your face at the end of the day is ok.
• Use the target muscles normally after your appointment, no need to perform exaggerated expressions since this is not supported by science and may cause product migration.
• No tight fitting hats on the day of your treatment, if you received forehead injections.
• Do not lie down on the affected area for 4 hours post treatment.
• You may experience a headache and flu-like symptoms for approximately 24–48 hours post. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) may be taken for relief. This is most common if this is your very first treatment, ever.
• The redness and marks on the treated areas will likely disappear within a few hours after treatment.
• There is a slight risk of bruising that may last up to one week. This is always temporary and can easily be covered with makeup. If this occurred, ice the area repeatedly for 15 mins in the hours that follow your treatment and avoid alcohol, aspirin, and ibuprofen. I have disposable ice packs on hand if this is a concern.
• Please report any complications or contact me with any questions – happy to help!

Ignoring aftercare instructions puts you at risk of an unintended outcome. There is no reversal agent for neurotoxin and the desired or undesired effects may last for weeks or months.

After treatment, a follow up will occur in 2 weeks to assess results. Your feedback is appreciated and helps to tailor your results.

Complimentary touch-ups are only offered: 

• with cosmetic indications, not therapeutic
• to the muscle groups initially treated, and
• only within 28 days of your initial treatment to ensure proper facial balance.

Result duration is dependent on dose and your unique body. Higher dose = more immobility and longer duration. However, individual biochemistry can also greatly effect the results and duration. For this reason, results cannot be guaranteed.
