Does Botulinum toxin hurt? Is there downtime?+
The needle is very fine and most people feel little more than a pinch; numbing cream can be applied first. You can go back to work straight away. Small red marks or bruises may appear and fade within a few days.
How long does Botulinum toxin last, and when should I repeat it?+
Usually 3–4 months; the jaw area often lasts longer. Repeat when the effect starts to wear off, and not more often than every 3 months, to reduce the chance of developing resistance.
Is filler dangerous?+
Common side effects are swelling and bruising that settle within a week. A rare but serious complication is filler blocking a blood vessel, so injections should be done by a doctor who knows the anatomy, using Thai FDA-registered hyaluronic acid filler that can be dissolved with hyaluronidase.
Can melasma be cured?+
Melasma is chronic and can return, especially with sun exposure or hormonal changes. The goal is to lighten it and keep it stable, together with daily sunscreen.
Do I need to avoid the sun after laser?+
Use SPF 30+ every day and avoid strong sun to reduce the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which is common in Asian skin.
How long does filler last?+
Hyaluronic acid filler lasts about 6–18 months depending on the area and product. Areas that move a lot, such as the lips, tend to break down faster.
Who shouldn’t have Botulinum toxin?+
People who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a neuromuscular condition (such as myasthenia gravis), or have an infection at the injection site. Always tell the doctor about your regular medicines.
Which symptoms need urgent attention?+
After filler, if pain keeps increasing, the skin turns white or a dusky blue patch appears, or your vision blurs, contact the clinic or go to an emergency room immediately. These can be signs of a blocked blood vessel — rare, but it needs prompt treatment.
Can I check the product?+
Yes. The doctor opens the product box in front of you and shows the Thai FDA registration and lot number every time.
How are Juvelook and Lenisna different from filler?+
Hyaluronic acid filler adds volume immediately and can be dissolved with hyaluronidase. Juvelook and Lenisna contain PDLLA, which prompts your skin to make its own collagen, so results build over several months — and the PDLLA component cannot be dissolved with hyaluronidase. The doctor chooses based on your skin concern and the area treated.
Can Mesofat help me lose weight?+
No. Mesofat reduces fat only where it is injected, such as under the chin. It suits people close to their target weight with a localized fat deposit. Swelling, bruising and numbness at the site are common and settle within 1–2 weeks. For overall weight loss, the doctor will recommend the weight management program instead.
