Facial Aesthetic Treatments – Frequently Asked Questions
What are facial aesthetic treatments?
Facial aesthetic treatments are non-surgical medical procedures that improve facial appearance by reducing wrinkles, restoring volume, and enhancing natural contours. Common treatments include Botox®, dermal fillers, lip enhancement, and skin rejuvenation. At Austin Brewer Facial Aesthetics in [City], treatments are customised to deliver natural, balanced results with minimal downtime.
What is the difference between Botox and dermal fillers?
Botox relaxes targeted facial muscles to reduce dynamic wrinkles such as frown lines and crow’s feet. Dermal fillers restore volume and contour areas like the lips, cheeks, chin, and jawline. Botox treats muscle movement; fillers add structure and fullness. Both treatments are often combined for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Are Botox and fillers safe?
When performed by a qualified medical professional, Botox and dermal fillers are considered safe and clinically approved treatments. At Austin Brewer Facial Aesthetics, patient safety, medical assessment, and precise technique are prioritised to ensure natural-looking results and minimise risk.
Is there downtime after Botox or fillers?
Most patients experience little to no downtime. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur but typically resolves within a few days. Patients usually return to normal activities the same day.
Do Botox or fillers hurt?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. Treatments use very fine needles, and numbing cream or lidocaine-containing products can be used to enhance comfort. Procedures are typically quick, often completed within 30 minutes.
How much do facial aesthetic treatments cost?
Pricing varies based on treatment type, product used, and the number of units or syringes required. A personalised consultation ensures you receive a customised treatment plan aligned with your goals and budget.
How do I know which treatment is right for me?
The best way to determine the right treatment is through a professional consultation. A customised facial assessment evaluates skin quality, facial structure, and aesthetic goals to create a tailored treatment plan.
Can men get Botox and fillers?
Yes. Facial aesthetic treatments are increasingly popular among men seeking to soften wrinkles, enhance jawline definition, and maintain a youthful appearance. Treatments are customised to preserve masculine facial features.
How often should I get maintenance treatments?
Botox is typically maintained every 3–4 months. Fillers may require touch-ups once or twice per year, depending on the area treated. A long-term aesthetic plan helps maintain consistent, natural results.
How do I prepare for my appointment?
Patients are typically advised to avoid alcohol, blood thinners (if medically appropriate), and certain supplements for a few days before treatment to reduce bruising risk. Specific instructions are provided during consultation.
