Frequently Asked Questions

Laser treatments are structured in two phases: corrective and maintenance. The corrective phase targets specific skin concerns and typically requires 3-6 sessions, performed four weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. For example, our BBL Hero, Forever Young BBL, and Moxi treatments are often utilized during this phase. After reaching your desired outcome, the maintenance phase promises lasting benefits, with treatments recommended every 4-6 months. We offer customized laser treatment plans for long-term skin rejuvenation and care.

Our Crestwood med spa offers a range of wrinkle reducers and dermal fillers to address your aesthetic goals. Wrinkle reducers like BOTOX®, XEOMIN®, and Dysport® typically last around three months, although this can vary depending on how quickly the body metabolizes them. We understand that each individual is unique and tailor our treatments to your needs. Dermal fillers like JUVÉDERM® and Restylane® usually last 6 to 12 months, depending on the specific product used and your metabolic rate. Once the filler has been built up through consistent treatments, it often tends to last longer than it does for someone receiving it for the first time. During a consultation, we can help you decide which of our services and products are right for you.

Yes, mild purging (small breakouts) is typical when starting a new facial treatment like a HydraFacial or using new skincare products. It usually clears within 2-4 weeks. Contact our Crestwood med spa immediately if you experience severe irritation or hives. We offer various services and can help determine the best products for your skin.

The key difference lies in their mechanism: wrinkle reducers, such as BOTOX®, Dysport®, and XEOMIN®, work by relaxing the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, those formed by facial expressions. Dermal fillers, like JUVÉDERM® and Restylane®, on the other hand, add volume beneath the skin’s surface to fill in static wrinkles (those present at rest) and restore lost volume.

At our Crestwood med spa, we believe in prevention. Starting preventative anti-aging treatments and a quality skincare regimen early in life can minimize the need for more intensive corrective services later. For example, consistent use of medical-grade skincare products and early consideration of facial treatments can significantly impact long-term skin health. While there’s no “right” or “wrong” age to begin, early intervention with dermal fillers, wrinkle reducers like BOTOX®, or even laser treatments such as Forever Young BBL can help maintain a youthful appearance. We offer personalized consultations to create a tailored anti-aging treatment plan that fits your needs and goals, no matter your age.

If you want to improve your skin health in Crestwood, we highly recommend scheduling a complimentary skincare consultation at our med spa. We’ll assess your skin concerns, skincare routines, and aesthetic goals during this session. This allows us to develop a customized, long-term plan tailored to your needs. We’ll educate you on the essential steps to achieve your desired results, including incorporating medical-grade products, facial treatments like the HydraFacial or Vibrant Glo Facial, or laser treatments such as Moxi or Forever Young BBL. We view this as a collaborative partnership, and we’re committed to adapting our recommendations to your lifestyle and helping you achieve healthy, radiant skin. Whether you are interested in dermal fillers, wrinkle reducers, or general skin revitalization, we can help you build the best service plan.

Our med spa’s approach is comprehensive. While facial treatments like the HydraFacial or laser treatments like the Forever Young BBL can significantly improve your skin, the best results typically require a personalized plan combining services and medical-grade skincare products.

You can combine wrinkle reducers like BOTOX® with a facial treatment. However, facial treatments, such as a HydraFacial or Dermaplane Glo Facial, must be performed before the wrinkle reducer injections for best results.

To achieve the best results from your wrinkle reducer (like BOTOX®, Dysport®, or XEOMIN®) or dermal filler (like JUVÉDERM®, Restylane®, Sculptra®, or Radiesse®) treatment, please adhere to these post-treatment guidelines: Avoid lying flat for at least 4 hours. Refrain from strenuous activities or workouts for 24 hours. Limit contact with the treated areas; this includes avoiding face massages, wearing tight hats, or excessive touching. Following these instructions will help minimize potential complications and maximize the longevity of your injections.

We understand that laser hair reduction treatment is a personalized experience. There’s no single “magic number” of sessions. With each laser treatment, you’ll notice your hair becoming finer, thinner, and growing less frequently. However, because everyone starts with different hair thickness, growth rates, and internal factors, the speed at which hair growth slows varies. We can assess your needs and create a tailored laser treatment plan during a consultation at our Crestwood location to help you achieve your desired results. We utilize advanced laser treatment technologies to provide the most effective services
