Can you treat excessive sweating and teeth clenching with Botox?Absolutely! While wrinkles are often what people think neurotoxin can treat, there is also other areas in which botulinum toxin injections can assist in symptom management. If you suffer with teeth clenching you might benefit from masseter injections- which aim to relax this overactive muscle. This treatment also leads to jawline slimming effects over time. Chin dimpling, often seen when frowning, can be relaxed with tox strategically placed into the lower chin. Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, can lead to embarrassing wetness often in the underarms. Botulinum toxin can be used to treat excessive sweating. This dermal injection treatment generally lasts 6-9 months, or more, and is easily performed in office to each underarm. Research shows that botulinum toxin treatment is 82-87% effective in treating the symptoms of hyperhidrosis.

How quick will I see collagen build with Sculptra?Sculptra is designed to give you noticeable results that emerge gradually and can last up to two years. Don’t be disappointed if you don’t see immediate results. A few days after treatment, you may look as you did before treatment. This is normal and temporary. The Sculptra regimen delivers its full effects with an average of three treatment sessions over the course of a few months. Because results happen gradually, you’ll see subtle, yet noticeable, results in the reduction of facial wrinkles and folds by comparing images before treatment and a couple months following treatment. Results are typically seen within a few weeks post-treatment with optimal results around 12 weeks. These results can last for up to 2-3 years. Sculptra may be especially well suited for younger patients- those in their 30's or early 40's who are just seeing the first signs of collagen depletion and volume loss.
-
What should I expect at the consultation?If interested in fillers, you must schedule a complimentary consultation at Bloom Medical Aesthetics first. This allows for a discussion of goals, expectations, risks, investment, products, as well as it allows for individualized treatment plans. No treatment for filler will be provided during a filler consultation. Often times more than one treatment modality is recommended, such as combining neurotoxin & dermal fillers for optimal results. You can schedule your filler appointment for a future date at the end of the consult, or go home and think on the discussion and plan. We never want you to feel rushed in making a decision. At Bloom Medical Aesthetics we do NOT inject filler in noses, between the brows or in foreheads. These areas are considered higher risk for serious complications and should not be taken lightly.

Will I need to watch what I eat and workout?As with any weight loss program, making healthy food choices, and exercise are essential to improved success and better results. This program does not deprive you of things you love, but encourages better choices for your overall health & wellness. Often times with restored energy, clients feel more inclined to move, to exercise, to go for a walk, thus increasing results.
