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.

Deciding Between CoolSculpting and Cryo T Shock?

You've been eating right, exercising, but you still have that stubborn fat hanging around your stomach area. Or maybe you have a double chin that just will not go away! There are some cryotherapy methods out there that have been proven to reduce the amount of fat and cellulite in your body. There is CoolSculpting ® and Cryo T-Shock, but which one is right for you? Which one is better? The CoolSculpting ® procedure is FDA-cleared for the treatment of visible fat bulges under the chin and under the jawline, thigh, abdomen and flank, along with bra fat, back fat, underneath the buttocks and upper arm.

How Often Should I Get a Chemical Peel?

Can you get chemical peels too often? Chemical peels are helpful for a variety of skin conditions.

However. doing so too much can backfire and create more skin issues, such as: -redness -discoloration -hyperpigmentation -irreversible spots -bacterial infections Ironically, if you use chemical peels too often, you may risk bringing on the issue you want to treat. So, how often is too often? The answer depends on the strength of the chemical peel. For instance, are you using at-home products or medical-grade peels from an esthetician? Chances are if you're using a peel you bought from the store, the chemicals are not as strong as professional peels. Although this is generally a con, you can typically use these superficial-level products more often without adverse reacti...
