Injectables are surrounded by strong opinions and very little detail. Here are the misconceptions we hear most often.

1. "It will make me look frozen"

Done conservatively, results should look like you on a well-rested day. Movement is kept, and the dose is chosen with you.

2. "Once I start, I can't stop"

You can stop whenever you like. Results fade gradually and your face returns to where it would have been.

3. "Everyone needs it"

Not true. A good doctor will tell you honestly when a treatment is not needed.

Want advice for your own skin?

A consultation turns general guidance into a plan made for you.

Book a consultation

The best next step is a conversation. Bring your questions and we will answer them plainly.

General information only. It does not replace a professional consultation.
