Question 1

How should I prepare for my appointment?

Accepted Answer

Here are our recommendations to prepare for your appointment at Opulence Experience;

- Avoid alcohol at least 48 hours before your appointment. Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and vitamin E at least a week before your appointment. These all can thin your blood which can increase bruising, swelling, and bleeding.

- It is highly recommended to come with a clean face free of makeup, lotions and oils as these residues can get into the dermis at the injection site - which could cause irritation, infection or tattooing.

- It is recommended to eat healthier and stay hydrated as this can help you feel calmer and prevent fainting (very unlikely).

- Take Arnica pills 3 days before your appointment to help with help inflammation and wound healing especially if you're more prone to bruising.

Question 5

How long does the results last?

Accepted Answer

The length of time results last depends on the treatment area, type of filler or neurotoxin, and your body type & health status.

Dermal Fillers generally can last 6-18 months, but depending on the location on location, type, dosage and body type will determine that exact number. For example filler injected under the eyes or temples will last longer than filler injected into the lips.

Same goes for Neurotoxins (Botox) as these generally last 3-6 months no matter what area it's injected site. However, it's extremely dependent on your body's response to the Neurotoxins and the amount of movement in the muscle activity.

Your body health & status determines the length as well due to age, diet and hydration levels. The dosage amount has a slight effect on the length of results as the administered dosage determines how drastic the results will be.
