I've been going to this spa for Botox for the last 4 years. Cindy has a knack for not bruising me. She's always been the consummate professional. I've had issues with other medical spas, so it's a real find to locate someone who can navigate around all the veins in my face. She just moved her practice to new a 20,000 square foot medical complex out by Lakeline mall. I'm very impressed with the new layout.
Some friendly advice for all you new Botox users...
Be sure and use a spa that will mix the Botox in front of you. Cindy told me that when mixed there should be no more than 100 units per 100 unit bottle. If they won't mix it while your watching, then they probably have something to hide.
Before going to any medical spa, do your homework. Don't waste your time on blog sites, where anyone can pretend to be a doctor.
Botox, info for instance can be found on the Allergan website. Botox is made ""only"" by Allergan.
By checking out their site, I discovered after:
7 days - I should see some improvement in my wrinkles.
30 days - I will see the maximum improvement in my wrinkles.
60 days - I will see some wrinkles coming back.
90 days - I should start looking tired as it has mostly worn off.
Your mileage may very, but probably not by much since the Allergan study sampled over 400 patients.
I've heard stories of it lasting as long as a year, but given what I've read, it was probably just an exaggeration. I know some people just like the attention they receive by juicing up their claims ;)
