During your initial consultation, your full medical history will be reviewed to ensure you are a good candidate for non-surgical cosmetic medicine. You will then have a full facial analysis where Dr. Joe will identify the key points of your natural beauty and explain how these features can be enhanced. All the potential risks and side effects will be thoroughly reviewed in detail and you will be given an initial quote of how much the procedures will cost. It is then up to you how you would like to proceed and you will never be put under any pressure. Dr. Joe performs all procedures personally himself and does not hire any nurses to perform injections for him.
If you have any of the following conditions, we strongly advise you to consult with Dr.Joe before booking an appointment.
We advise every one of our clients to set up a consultation prior to getting botox or fillers.
The cost of botox will depend on your area of concern as well as the intensity of your wrinkles. Please contact us to schedule a consultation and get a quote!
Despite the popular belief that botox is mostly administered to older men/women, there has been a rise of preventative botox. This is done to PREVENT the formation of lines and wrinkles, rather than in a corrective way once lines and wrinkles are already established, when treatment is often less successful.
If you are still unsure, feel free to contact us and set up a consultation.
On average, a botox procedure takes 15-30 minutes.
Botox and Fillers are not covered by OHIP. Botox for treatment of migraines and jaw pain may be covered by your private/work insurance. Botox and Filler for cosmetic purposes may also be covered by your private/work insurance if you have a wellness spending account. We recommend you check with you insurance for more details.
In most cases you can resume your day to day activities right after treatment. Many patients come in during their lunch break and return to work immediately after. If there is anything you are concerned about, please discuss it with Dr. Joe during your consultation.
Typically, you will see results in 3 to 7 days. Results usually last 3 to 5 months but this can differ depending on the individual.
Dermal fillers may not be suitable for individuals with bleeding disorders or allergies. You cannot get dermal fillers if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
For lip fillers, if you have a history of cold sores or herpes you must contact us at least a week before your procedure in order to be prescribed preventative medication.
We advise every one of our clients to set up a consultation prior to getting botox or fillers.
Fillers produce immediate results but can take 2-4 weeks to fully settle. Results typically last 12-18 months.
After receiving your fillers, you may experience bruising, swelling and mild pain however these effects tend to clear within a few days.
