FAQs

As with all treatments it is expected that you will experience some slight discomfort throughout the procedure.

• For anti-wrinkle injections, we use very very small insulin needles and most patients do not even feel them!
• For fillers, we use strong numbing cream and premium fillers contain numbing agents that reduce the discomfort.
• Our expert doctors use advanced techniques to minimise the chance of swelling or bruising after the treatment.

All injectable procedures carry some risks, but your doctor will discuss these thoroughly at the time of consultation

• At Your Skin Doctors, all treatments are carried out by experienced, qualified medical doctors only
• Our expert doctors use advanced techniques in a safe and sterile environment to avoid complications
• Our clinics only use the the safest premium brands of dermal filler and botox

None of our treatments are permanent, and after their effects have worn off the areas treated can be “topped up” with further treatments.

• Anti-wrinkle injections can last up to 6 months but this can depend on a number of factors, including the areas and amount injected, previous use, age and other factors
• Dermal fillers can last up to 12 months, but again this can depend on a number of factors, including those mentioned above.
• If treatment is maintained regularly, you will notice that the effects begin to last longer as your body gets used to it and doesn’t break it down as quickly
• As all individuals are different, make sure you discuss any questions you have at the consultation with your doctor

Our doctors will remind you of the aftercare advice at appointments. Things to avoid after treatment include:

• Wearing makeup for 12 hours after having any injections
• Exposure to extreme temperatures until redness and swelling subsides – no saunas, steam rooms, sunbeds or sun exposure
• Strenuous exercise for 24 hours after treatment
• Alcohol for 24 hours minimum after treatment
• Massage or manipulation of the treated area

No. Your Skin Doctors use advanced techniques for our procedures to minimise bruising and swelling so you’ll be able to return to work the same day

• Anti-wrinkle injections can take up to two weeks to notice results
• Injections for sweating can give results from 1-8 weeks, taking full effect from 8 weeks
• Masseter and bruxism treatment can take 2-4 weeks to notice results
• Dermal filler treatments show immediate results that continue to improve over the next 2-4 weeks

Nothing! You are in safe hands with our doctors – just let us look after you!
