Can Botox Injections Leave Residue on Skin? Is This Risky?
Can Botox injections leave residue on skin, and can this be ingested accidentally (ie hands or showering)? How many units of Botox ingested are toxic?
A: Botox does not leave a residueThere is no residue from Botox injections. Medical grade botox, used in appropriate amounts, does not produce toxicity. If you are implying that someone might "ingest" or eat Botox, that would be completely inappropriate.
Why Are Restylane Injections (Undereye Hollows) So Expensive?
It's usually recommended that 2 syringes are used per eye; $1000 per syringe. Why is restylane so expensive? Is appears cheaper and more convienent to get an under eye implant atleast the results will be permanent where as with restylane you'll have to come back approximately every 6 months to 1 year for injections. Someone please help, I need undereye hollows filled but I can't afford $3000-4000 for restylane injections.
A: Restylane pricesFees vary. My fee is lower and I think that you might want to comparison shop to verify that other skilled injectors in your area are in the same price range. All of the cosmoceuticals and injectibles cost plenty for the doctor to purchase from the manufacturer and, actually, the supplement for his time and expertise isn't terribly high. I personally find the notion of 4 syringes in a single sitting for the lower eyelids to be high. You haven't posted a photograph but generally I use 1-2 syringes for this area, so this is another issue that you should resolve by additional consultations.
I Am Having a Tummy Tuck & BA & Lift and I Drive Haulpack is 3wks Enough Time off Work? (photo)
I am a 40 y/o/f having a Tummy Tuck and a BA and lift - I am hoping to go from a sagging C cup to a BOLD D or DD - I am unsure. Do you feel a TT will be benificial for me. I drive those big ole Haulpack trucks. I can book for 3 weeks time off is this enough. I dont plan on losing anymore weight just the apron Also, where can I buy the tummy compression bandages and special bras, as I will be on my own and really want to have these things prior to my travelling (I live way up north!) Thank you
A: Time off from work after tummy tuck/augment/pexyI personally do not think that anyone can guarantee that, after 3 weeks, you will be ready to return to work, particularly driving a vehicle for what I assume would be long distances. I would suggest that you plan for a minimum of four weeks off although six would be better. You should clarify the amount of time off that you need with your employer prior to surgery so that there are no misunderstandings afterwards.
