Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
How Many Botox Units for 11’s or Frown Lines?
Did your Botox take effect yet?
Feb 21, 2018
As others have noted, you can’t judge the effectiveness of a Botox treatment immediately. Some here have said wait 3 to 5 days, others say 2 weeks. Our standard is 10 days. And 20 units of Botox placed properly should yield good results. I can’t speak for your doctor, but I will say that though I strive to get the dose perfect the first time, if I do anything I’ll err on the side of less. Why? Because you can’t take away Botox…and if you end up with too much your only option…
How Long Before Botox Results Can Be Seen?
Be patient
Feb 20, 2018
It can be up to 10 days before you see full results from a Botox treatment. Be aware that one side may react sooner than the other, so if you see uneven results at 6 days, give it 4 more days before you consider a touch-up!
Is Minoxidil for Short-term or Long-term Use?
Must continue use
Jun 1, 2017
Minoxidil must be used daily, and for as long as the user wants to see improvement with hair growth. It takes at least 3-6 months of consistent, proper application to begin to see hair growth. If a week is skipped, patients will report seeing a decrease almost immediately. I wouldn’t recommend starting it if you don’t intend to continue using it indefinitely!
How long to see Kybella results?
There may be better options
Jun 1, 2017
In our experience with Kybella, patients saw very gradual, and only minimal improvement, even after 3 or more treatments. Several of our patients had gained weight by the time they returned for follow up, which makes it impossible to gauge the effectiveness of Kybella. At our office we use a combination of CoolSculpting (for fat loss) and Ultherapy (for skin tightening) for the best possible results. However, if the patient just has a very small, localized area of extra…
ThermiVa: How Long Do The Results Last?
ThermiVa results last for generally a year, then maintenance is recommended
Jun 1, 2017
From studies thus far, the results of ThermiVa will generally last at least a year, then maintenance is recommended every 12 to 18 months. It should be noted that initial treatments consist of a series of 3 treatments, but maintenance is usually only one treatment. At our facility, the maintenance treatment is greatly discounted to encourage women to maintain their results.
I’m 21 years old, is Obagi Nu Derm regime targeting older skin only?
You’re smart to start a good skin care regimen now.
Apr 24, 2017
Like exercising and brushing your teeth, taking care of your skin benefits you now and in the future.
Obagi NuDerm is an excellent system — and yes, it is mostly intended to treat aging skin. However, with the addition of Tretinoin, it is also good for rough texture, which may be the reason why your dermatologist made the recommendation. Be aware that it will take from 12 to 24 weeks to see transformation, and during that time your skin is likely to purge, peel,…
