Botox & Dermal Fillers: A Clear Guide to Natural-Looking Results

Injectables are the most popular aesthetic treatment in the country, and also the most misunderstood. This guide explains what Botox and fillers each do, how pricing works, what to expect at your appointment and how to get results that look like you on a good day.

Botox and filler do different jobs

Botox and similar neuromodulators relax the muscles that cause expression lines: forehead lines, frown lines (the "11s") and crow's feet. Results appear over about two weeks and last roughly three to four months.

Dermal fillers, usually hyaluronic acid, restore volume and shape. They're used for lips, cheeks, under-eye hollows, jawline, chin and smile lines. Results are immediate and typically last 6 to 18 months, depending on the product and area.

Natural results come from restraint

The "overdone" look comes from too much product or the wrong placement. Our approach is to assess your facial anatomy, start conservatively and build gradually. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved if needed, which adds a layer of safety.

Pricing

Botox is priced per unit, and the number of units depends on the area and your muscle strength. Members pay $10 per unit and save 15% on filler. See the specials page for current offers.
