Common Questions
Answered plainly
Is Botox® the same as filler?
No, they solve different problems. Botox® and Xeomin® relax the muscles that crease skin, such as frown lines and crow’s feet. Dermal fillers restore lost volume and smooth folds that are there even when your face is at rest. Many treatment plans combine both.
Will I look frozen or overdone?
Not at our clinic. Dr. Sarai doses conservatively and places precisely, aiming for a rested look rather than an obvious one. You can always add more at a later visit.
How long do results last?
Neuromodulators typically last three to four months. Belotero® dermal fillers last from six to eighteen months, depending on the product and the area treated.
Does it hurt?
Injections use very fine needles and take minutes. Most clients describe a brief pinch. Numbing options are available for filler treatments in sensitive areas like lips.
Is there downtime?
You can return to your day immediately. Small bumps or pinpoint redness settle within hours; occasional light bruising can take a few days. We’ll give you simple aftercare guidance at your visit.
Why choose a physician injector?
Anatomy knowledge and safety. As a medical doctor, Dr. Sarai manages the full picture: assessment, treatment, and in the rare event of a complication, immediate medical management with prescription medication if needed.
