Frequently Asked Questions

Book a Appointment
What should I expect during my first visit?

Your first visit starts with a complimentary consultation where one of our licensed providers reviews your goals, skin/health history, and recommends a personalized treatment plan. Most first appointments last 30–45 minutes, and any treatment performed the same day will be fully explained beforehand.

How long do results typically last?

It depends on the treatment. Neuromodulators (like Botox) typically last 3–4 months, dermal fillers can last 6–18 months depending on the product and area, and skin treatments like facials or peels build cumulatively with a regular maintenance schedule. Your provider will give you a personalized timeline at your consultation.

Is there downtime after treatments?

Most of our treatments have little to no downtime, so you can typically return to normal activities the same day. Some injectables may cause mild, temporary redness or swelling at the injection site for a day or two. Any treatment with expected downtime (such as certain resurfacing procedures) will be discussed in detail before you book.

Do you accept insurance?

Most of our services are elective aesthetic treatments and are not covered by insurance. We accept all major credit cards, and financing options are available through select third-party partners for larger treatment plans — ask our front desk team for details.

What is your cancellation policy?

We ask that you give us at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Cancellations made with less notice, or missed appointments, may be subject to a cancellation fee. You can manage your bookings anytime from your account or by calling your preferred location.

Are treatments performed by licensed providers?

Yes. Every injectable and medical-grade treatment is performed or directly supervised by licensed medical professionals — nurse practitioners, physician assistants, or physicians — who have completed specialized aesthetics training. Safety and proper technique are always our top priority.
