Questions About Botox


How many units of Botox do I need on average?

The Botox Cosmetic manufacturer generally recommends four units per injection site. Most providers administer between 10 and 50 units total, depending on your goals and treatment history.

What's the difference between Botox and dermal filler?

Botox relaxes the muscles that cause fine lines and wrinkles. Dermal fillers restore lost volume and smooth deeper folds. Many patients combine the two.

How long does Botox last?

Botox usually lasts 3-4 months, and up to 6 months, depending on the number of units, your age, and your lifestyle.

How long does it take to see Botox results?

Most people see results in 3 to 5 days, and up to 8 days for some areas. The frown lines between your eyebrows and crow's feet tend to respond faster than the forehead.

Does Botox hurt?

Botox feels like a slight pinch or sting from the small needle. Most patients find it very tolerable.

How much does Botox cost in Boca Raton?

Botox is priced per unit, and the number of units depends on the areas you want treated. You'll get an exact quote at your free consultation, and flexible payment plans are available.

Questions about Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)


Is hormone therapy safe?

For most women, HRT is a safe and effective way to relieve menopausal symptoms when it's medically supervised. Risk rises with age and length of treatment, which is why we review your health history first and monitor you throughout. We'll talk through the benefits and risks for your situation at your consultation.

How long should I take HRT?

Many women take HRT until their menopausal symptoms ease, often around two years. The right length varies from woman to woman.

Am I a good candidate for HRT?

HRT suits many women managing menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, sleep changes, and mood shifts. It may not be right if you have certain health conditions, so we review your history at your free consultation.

Yes. If your ED is caused by low testosterone, TRT can help restore healthy erections and your sex drive.

How do you monitor my testosterone while I'm on TRT?

We recheck your levels at 3 and 6 months. If they're on target we hold the dose; if they're low we adjust it.

How long do I have to take TRT?

TRT is a long-term treatment. Symptoms of Low T can return if you stop.

Questions about Chemical Peels


Do chemical peels hurt?

You may feel mild burning or itching during the peel. We can apply a gentle numbing cream beforehand.

How long does the procedure take?

A chemical peel takes anywhere from a few minutes to an hour, depending on your treatment.

When do I see results?

New skin develops about one to two weeks after treatment, depending on the peel and factors like your age and diet.

What is the recovery period like?

Recovery depends on the depth of the peel. Your skin will be more sun-sensitive afterward, so sunscreen is strongly recommended.

  • Light peels: up to 7 days to heal with light peeling; sunburn-like appearance may last up to a month; most patients can wear makeup the next day.
  • Medium peels: 7-14 day recovery; some swelling and dryness; makeup after 5-7 days.
  • Deep peels: 14+ day recovery; more redness and swelling; makeup after 14 days minimum.
How much does a chemical peel cost?

Pricing starts at $160. We'll confirm the right peel for your skin at your consultation.
