Don't Bargain Shop for Botox!

When pricing out an injectable filler or Botox treatment, consider that the cost of the product is only one component of the total price. You're also paying for a trained, certified and experienced professional to properly administer those products to safely achieve beautiful, natural-looking results.

For this reason, bargain hunting for Botox, fillers and other cosmetic treatments isn't recommended. It is unfortunately still common to hear horror stories of untrained, unlicensed providers offering cosmetic services at a steep discount and causing long-lasting damage to patients. This is a key reason why choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon, or a medical spa facility operated by a board-certified plastic surgeon, is one of the most important decisions you can make when shopping for injectables.

A few red flags to look for when choosing a filler or Botox provider include:

  • Prices that seem too good to be true
  • Lack of information or before and after pictures on their website or in their office
  • Refusal to show you the product packaging or labeling
  • A dirty, disorganized office or clinic

It is also worth mentioning that while "Botox parties" have become popular, these events are not a safe way to receive injections unless they are carefully administered in a clinic environment. Botox, fillers and other professional cosmetic treatments should always be performed in a sterile medical office and by a trained professional.

Build Muscle with EmSculpt

You can now build muscle in a revolutionary, non-invasive procedure called EmSculpt ! In as little as four sessions you can get the body that you desire. This procedure can be used to sculpt areas of your body, such as the buttocks, abdominal and arm muscles to help you have the muscle build that you've always wanted! EmSculpt is non-invasive so without any surgery or opening wounds, it can help you become toned and sculpted. It works by creating muscle contractions that are stronger than normal contractions, creating a more intense reaction from the muscle tissue, leading to a deeper muscle build and highly visible sculpting ! Watch the video below to see how it works: A complete treatment with EmSculpt is four sessions of 20-30 minutes that scheduled a couple of days apart, with the goal of all treatments being complete within two weeks. The best part of this treatment, along with looking great afterward, is that there is no recovery time or post-treatment needed. The only sym...

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a skin treatment that uses a specialized blade — similar to a surgical scalpel called a dermatome — to remove dead skin and hairs. People may also refer to it as microplaning or blading. When you have it done by a certified professional aesthetician, experts generally consider it safe. However, a person should not try to do dermaplaning on themselves or others at home. The basic concept of dermaplaning is the same as shaving, but in place of a razor, it uses a scalpel-type blade to remove skin cells, hair, and other debris that may be present on the surface of the skin. The continuous exposure of the top layer of skin to UV rays, environmental toxins, and irritants means that it may begin to appear dull. Dermaplaning removes the top layer of skin to reveal newer skin cells that may make a person’s skin appear smoother and glowing. An esthetician, plastic surgeon, or dermatologist can perform skin resurfacing procedures such as dermaplaning. A person should choose a...
