FAQs

What is Botulinum Toxin Type A? Botulinum toxin type A is an injectable neurotoxin. While often referred to as “Botox”, there are four different FDA-Approved neurotoxins: Botox® Cosmetic, Dysport®, Jeuveau®, and Xeomin®. We use these popular anti-aging treatments to smooth fine lines, and wrinkles. Here at Luxe Medical, all your services will be performed by a Licensed Medical Provider.

Most clients report little to no discomfort, or no more than a small pinch. If you are concerned about discomfort, we can offer a numbing agent upon request. 

Botox is an FDA-Approved product and considered relatively safe. Possible side effects and complications include : Pain, swelling, bruising at the injection site, headache, mild flu-like symptoms, eyelid ptosis, mephisto (spock) brows, etc. 

Some people report seeing results as quickly as 24 hours. However, typically you will start to see results within 1-3 days, with full treatment results within 14 days. Everyone is different, but typically results begin to fade within 3-4 months. 

Botox may take up to two weeks to see full results, so we ask that you wait the full 14 days before coming back in for touch ups. 

Every client is different. You will sit down with one of our Registered Nurses, discuss your treatment goals and formulate a plan together. This will allow us to give you an accurate quote of how many units you will need to achieve those goals. You will never feel pressured to purchase anything, and your treatment plan will be customized to fit your needs. 

We take a conservative approach, "Less is More," especially with clients new to neurotoxins. We can always add more later if needed. 

These soft tissue fillers are injected into the skin at different depths to help fill in facial wrinkles, provide facial volume, and augment facial features: restoring a smoother appearance.

We use a medical grade numbing agent to make filler injections as comfortable as possible, however it also depends on each person's pain tolerance. 

While a possibility with any filler, we provide pre/post filler care instructions to minimize your chances as best we can. Any bruising or swelling typically subsides within a couple days. 

You will see results immediately with fillers, although it may take up to a couple weeks for the filler to completely integrate into the tissues. 

We use Hyaluronic Acid fillers, which can be dissolved. In the unlikely event you would like to dissolve some or all your filler, this can be done in office. 

Also referred to as Collagen Induction Therapy, Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment involving tiny sterile needles to create microscopic punctures to the skin.  This process stimulates your skin’s natural healing, promoting the production of collagen and elastin, while giving your skin a more firm and rejuvenated appearance.  Treatment areas can include almost anywhere you have damaged or aging skin, and have also shown improvements with scars, skin discoloration, stretch marks, loose/crepey skin, enlarged pores, uneven skin tones, and fine lines & wrinkles.  This can be a great option for someone new to aesthetics, an alternative to injectables, or used in combination with other treatments to maximize results.

There should be little to no discomfort. We use a topical numbing agent before we begin. You may experience a slight sunburn feeling post procedure that may last a couple days. 

Typically, we recommend 3-4 treatments scheduled 4-6 weeks apart, then 2-3 maintenance treatments per year after that. However, more severe scars, or stretch marks may require further treatment. 

This is all dependent on the size of the area being treated, number of areas, etc. To include prep, numbing, procedure and post care, we suggest planning for it to take about 35-45 mins.

IV Hydration Therapy is an effective way to deliver vitamins and nutrients directly into your bloodstream via a small IV typically inserted into your arm. This method gives you 100% absorption with little waste while maximizing effects. Our carefully selected assortment of IV treatment bags offer blends of vitamins, minerals, supplements and antioxidants to promote overall health and wellness.

All IVs are administered by a Registered Nurse and performed under a Medical Director to ensure patient safety. 

The frequency of IV therapy is determined on a patient-by-patient basis. We take a customized approach to suit your individual needs. For preventative health and wellness, we recommend at least 2-3 treatments per month.  

Side effects are generally rare or very mild. On occasion, you may experience some discomfort, bruising, itching, inflammation, or redness at or around the IV site lasting from a few mins to several days. However, true allergic reactions are extremely rare. 

Vitamin and Lipotropic injections are great ways to deliver key nutrients right to your body. Unlike oral supplements, intramuscular injections bypassing digestion for quick absorption and use. Lipotropics are essential amino acids that enhance the liver’s ability to break down and metabolize fat. Many lipotropic injections also include vitamins that boost energy levels and help to improve your overall mood.

In order to maximize effects and weight loss, we often recommend weekly injections for most.  Lipotropic injections boost amino acid levels, but those levels return to your baseline within about a week.  For your body to maintain and enhance the fat-burning they provide, you'll need to replenish those amino acids. One of our Registered Nurses will discuss recommendations with you at your appointment as well.

In addition to boosting you body's ability to burn fat, vitamin and lipotropic injections also offer many other health benefits such as: Liver detoxification, restoration of vitamin imbalances, enhanced digestive efficiency, stronger hair and nails, improved immune system, heart health benefits, and improved mental clarity & concentration. 

* We recommend adding a healthy diet and exercise routine to any injection therapy to maximize your results.

These injections may be administered in the thigh muscle, hip muscle, buttocks, or upper arm muscle. 

Cosmetic Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive, relatively quick treatment where a special solution called a sclerosant is injected into the damaged surface of small varicose and spider veins, causing them to collapse. Unfortunately, this common cosmetic concern occurs in both women and men, but cosmetic sclerotherapy can help to drastically improve or eliminate these unsightly veins. On average you may need 2-4 treatments per area to achieve your desired results.

Veins that respond to treatment don't generally come back, but new veins can appear over time. Touch up or retreatment may be needed for those areas to continue to look their best.

It may take time for veins to improve or disappear. It is common and very probable that your legs could look worse before getting better. Bruising at or near the injection site or along the course of the vein is common and should subside typically within a week or so. You may also experience small welts similar to mosquito bites at the injection sites, however these are common and quite normal.

To prepare, avoid strenuous sports and exercise 2-3 days prior to your appointment, and for roughly a week after your treatment. Wear compression stockings for at least 5 days post treatment, avoid hot baths, sunbathing, hot tubs, saunas, etc for at least 2-3 days after treatment. Heat causes blood vessels to dilate, and we want those vessels to stay sealed shut. 

Like most appointment-based services, we require a credit card on file to secure your appointment. Your credit card will not be charged, unless you no-call/no-show your appointment, or you arrive with insufficient time to complete your scheduled services. In that case, you will be charged the appropriate fee in accordance to our company policies. We try our best to accommodate everyone, so if you are unable to make your appointment, we ask that you kindly give us 24-hour notice.

We send you home with after care instructions for treatments requiring post care.  Your nurse will review these instructions with you and be able to answer any questions you may have.
