Beauty as a division of our internal and external selves never made sense to me. I wanted to disrupt that very concept. So I created a place where anyone can show up whole – no matter what that looks like.
This is the gritty, searingly difficult work. Looking in the mirror and loving that precious human looking back at you, surprisingly, it’s work.

Filler Pre and Post Care Instruction
5 Days Before Treatment
We recommend beginning Arnica pills or gel 5 days before your procedure.
Avoid taking all of these products Advil, Vitamin E, Ginger, Ginko, Bilboa, Ginseng, Fish Oil, Aspirin and Garlic for five days prior to a treatment since this may increase the risk of bruising. You may shower and do most other regular daily activities.
Post Treatment
Avoid strenuous exercise for 1-2 days after the procedure. This may raise your blood pressure and pulse causing more bruising and swelling.
Avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time. Wear sun block to protect your skin. Sunlight may cause permanent discoloration after bruising.
Do not apply make-up after the procedure for 12 to 24 hours.
You may apply cold compresses or ice to the treatment sites to reduce swelling and bruising if instructed by your provider.
Note that any bumps or marks from the extremely small needle sticks will go away within a few hours. If you do develop a bruise it will resolve like any other bruise. There is occasionally some mild pain, swelling, itching, or redness at the site of injection similar to most other injections. Redness may last for 1-2 days, rarely longer.
Avoid blood thinning over-the-counter medications such as Aspirin, Motrin and Aleve and fish oil pills. Tylenol is OK to use. Please notify practitioner if you are using prescription or non-prescription blood thinners so extra precaution can be taken to avoid bruising. If bruising occurs, it is most common around the eyes and can be covered using a green or yellow cover-up-stick. While we make every effort to avoid bruising, this may occur as the skin around the eyes is very thin and there are several small vessels in this area. Bruising is usually minimal and may take up to 7-14 days to resolve completely.
To minimize bruising, apply OTC Arnica gel beginning 5 days before treatment.
Before photos may be taken for our files and posted with client permission. Your treatment will take effect in anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks, but most commonly within 3-5 days. Since everybody is different, your BOTOX/Xeomin® Cosmetic treatment is tailored specially for you.
Post Treatment
Immediately following your treatment, please do not lie down for 4 hours.
Avoid any massage or pressure to the area, as this may disrupt placement of the drug. If you would like to re-apply makeup, please do so gently over the treated area.
Refrain from heavy exercise for 4 hours.
Contract and release the treated muscles every few minutes over the next hour. This helps with the “uptake” of the drug.
Allergan, the manufacturer of BOTOX/Xeomin®, as well as our own patient experiences, report the average duration of results is approximately 3-4 months. It is important to maintain regular injection intervals to maintain an optimal aesthetic result and prevent returning to your original pre-treatment condition.
If you have any concerns, please let us know. We are committed to you.
