FAQs

A summary of the treatments and answers to frequently asked questions.

INJECTABLES

Neurotoxins such as Botox® and Dysport® relax the muscles that cause wrinkles, including frown lines and Crow’s feet. The injection feels like a quick pinch or tiny prick. Small, raised bumps may appear at the injection sites, and a tingling sensation is normal. These typically fade within a few hours. Results generally begin to appear around Day 3, with full results in 10-14 days.

A “unit” of a neurotoxin measures potency rather than a physical amount of liquid. Average units for treatment:

  • Frown line 15-25 units
  • Forehead lines 10-30 units
  • Crows feet 5-15 units per side
  • Jawline 20-30 units per side
  • Lip flip 4 units
  • Chin dimples 2-15 units
  • Eyebrow lift 2-5 units per side
  • Lip lines 4 units

DERMAL FILLERS

Arrive with clean skin and avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise before your appointment. A topical numbing cream may be applied to minimize discomfort. The injections may feel like a slight pinch or pressure. A cold compress to the treated areas can reduce swelling.

Dermal fillers restore lost volume and enhance your natural contours. Most treatments require at least one full syringe.

Common treatment area:

  • Cheeks
  • Lips
  • Tear troughs
  • Earlobes
  • Under-eye hollows

KYBELLA® is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that dissolves fat beneath the chin. Most patients require 2-3 vials per session, with 2-4 sessions for optimal results. The chin area will be numbed before treatment. The injections feel like a series of tiny pinches, followed by a burning sensation that typically lasts 15-20 minutes as the fat cells break down. Swelling and numbness are expected during the first 24 hours. Ice packs and over-the-counter pain relievers can help manage soreness. Most swelling subsides within 1-2 weeks, although mild numbness may last for a couple of months.

MICRONEEDLING

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that stimulates collagen production. Tiny, controlled punctures in the skin trigger the body’s natural healing response, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin. A series of treatments, typically spaced one month or more apart, can help improve skin elasticity and collagen production.

Microneedling can improve:

  • Fine lines
  • Acne scars
  • Skin texture
  • Pore size

PRP and PDRN are available to enhance results

REGENERATIVE TREATMENTS

Advanced serums that harness your body’s natural healing potential. These can be added to microneedling and the micro infusion facial.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) – uses your own blood to concentrate platelets, stimulating healing and tissue regeneration. No additives.

PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) – a regenerative compound derived from salmon DNA shown to repair, hydrate, and improve skin quality

PDGF+ (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor) – Lab-engineered growth factor that support cell renewal, collagen production, and tissue repair. No blood draw required.

SCITON BBL HEROic™ LASER

Broadband Light (BBL) therapy that safely and effectively improves a wide range of skin concerns. Treatments are often described as feeling like quick rubber-band snaps against the skin. BBL HEROic™ can help:

  • Improves pigmentation (age spots) and sun damage
  • Reduces redness and visible blood vessels
  • Stimulates collagen for firmer skin on upper arms, thighs, neck, and abdomen
  • Improve acne

RED LIGHT THERAPY

Clinically studied red and near-infrared light therapy provides a relaxing, full-body treatment. Please remove makeup and lotions before your appointment. Wear loose-fitting clothing, such as shorts and a tank top. Treatments last approximately 30 minutes and produce only a gentle warming sensation.

For best results, treatments are typically recommended 3-5 times per week

Red light therapy may:

  • Support healthy circulation
  • Stimulate collagen production
  • Help reduce inflammation
  • Support the body’s natural healing process
  • Improve mild acne
