FAQs

Facial aesthetics is a term used to describe non-surgical cosmetic treatments that are designed to enhance your natural beauty, improve your skin health and slow down the signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles.

Some frequently asked questions about facial esthetics treatments that we provide are:

1. What is Botox?
   Botox is a neuro-modulator that is injected into muscles of facial expressions to soften wrinkles by weakening the muscle movement in areas like the forehead,  between the eyebrows, around the eyes “crows feet”, in the jowl area to prevent downturn of lips and in the neck to help elongate the neck and smooth the neck. The injections are very safe with minimal discomfort and results will generally last up to 4 months.
    
2. What are dermal fillers?
   Dermal fillers are injectables that help replenish volume loss due to aging into areas like the midface, temples, forehead, around the mouth, lips and jaw line to help reduce depressions and plump the skin. The injections are very safe with minimal discomfort. Dr. Olinga will often use some form of anesthetic, topical or injected, in the areas of fillers to keep procedures extremely comfortable. Due to Dr. Olinga’s training and philosophy, the results are very natural and can last up to one year.
    
3. How do I take care of my skin to help maintain the results?
   Your skincare and maintenance will be customized to you depending on age, the overall health of skin and treatments received but generally, you should maintain a good home skincare routine with great products, focus on sun protection, and schedule regular monthly or quarterly maintenance visits to experience the best prolonged results.
