Hi, Radiesse is not indicated for lip augmentation. It is better for deeper areas such as the cheek. Beletero or a Juevederm can be safely used around the lips for great results.

Is radiesse used on lips?

Hi. Massaging the area for days after coolsculpting does definitely does not hurt anything, however there are no studies showing that it will improve the results. However,&nbsp; the massage immediately following the procedure has been proven to improve results and is very important.

Got CoolScuplting done a couple of weeks ago. I massage my treatment area (abdomen) twice a day.

Does massaging your treatment area daily help CoolScuplting results?

Given your age, coolsculpting is a great option for you since it is non-surgical.&nbsp;&nbsp;You body will still be able to clear the fat cells.&nbsp; There is a safety mechanism on the machine- it will shut off if it detects the cooling coming into direct contact with the skin. Good luck!

IE; Are there any risks to an older patient? Also, is the instrument calibrated in a fail safe way (IE: no possible way of temperature reaching dangerously low levels)?

Do older patients (I am 67) need to be concerned about the body not properly disposing of the dead fat cells.

You can definitely return for your second session. Keep in mind you can also get more than two sessions in the same area if needed. Best of luck!

I had a CoolMini procedure done on my mild double chin a year ago. I didn't see much of a result, but I didn't go for a second treatment session. Now, it's been a year, and I'm wondering if it's too late to schedule one. Would it be a waste of money? Would I still see improvement even though it's been a year?

Is a year too long to wait for a second CoolMini chin fat reduction treatment?

It does sound like you need a touch up for the "11" and some added above the eyebrow to help with the crease.&nbsp; Some physicians will do free touch-ups if you originally get the recommended dose.&nbsp;

Should I go back to the same doctor and will I be charged more to get this fixed? I'm a first timer & went to a board certified doctor. I received 28 unites and they were injected in a triangle pattern. I wanted to freeze my forehead & 11s. But I can still frown to make the 11's and when I raise my eyebrows I look like the Joker. The top & mid is frozen. But when I raise my eyebrows, I have a sharp crease above each eyebrows. One side is more sever than the other. Thank you.

I got Xeomin 12 days ago, but I can still make the 11's and I look like a witch when I raise my eyebrows. What to do?

There is no downtime to return to that particular skin care regimen, however you do want to avoid excessive stimulation or rubbing of the treated areas the day of the procedure.

I was taking epido forte and clindamycin for several months and stopped one week prior to radiesse and botox. How long should I wait after radiesse and botox to go back to my normal skincare regimen of clindamycin and epido forte or is there even a waiting period at all? My doctor told me to do whatever I want but I want a second opinion

Radiesse aftercare skincare: how long should I wait after to go back to my normal skincare regimen?

Coolsculpting can give great results under the chin. You should be fine to keep any plans you have, even if you have some the same day of treatment. There is normally not noticeable swelling to the area.

Going in for CoolSculpting on my double chin. I'm 22 yrs old and 120 pounds. the nurse told me what I have is a pocket of fat from genetics. Not sure what to expect out of this procedure- recovery wise. Is it a bad idea to do it the first week of December if I have plans the following weekend? I don't want to look noticeably swollen/worse. I can handle bruising but of course I don't want to be noticeably bigger in an area I'm already self conscious about. I am just eager to get it done!

What is the recovery like? Is it a bad idea to do it the first week of December if I have plans the following weekend?

Thanks for the question. The cool mini can be very effective under the chin and you may get great results from it. However, it does not appear that you have an abundance of extra tissue to be treated. Therefore you might also&nbsp; want to consider Kybella. Kybella destroys the fat cells and is a series of 3 treatments spaced one month apart, with maximum results seen three months after the last treatment. Again, coolsculpting is also a great option for people with enough tissue in the area. However you would want to get an in person consult to ensure it would work for you.&nbsp;

I'm in my early 30's, and a size 2. I'm fit as can be, but I have a double chin sometimes when I slouch or look down that's genetic. It seems like in the last couple of years it's become more noticeable. I want to have a firm, smooth chin that matches the rest of me. I'm wondering if laser lipo, lipo, or CoolSculpting is my best bet. A bonus would be a little firming so that the line on my neck is lifted a bit. I also want to ensure the results are smooth.

What would be the best method to remove my double chin?

Great question!&nbsp; Microneedling and microdermabrasion can be combined and done in the same visit for maximum results!&nbsp; By doing microdermabrasion prior to numbing the skin you can get better absorption of the numbing agent and achieve the best result needling on freshly exfoliated skin.
However, if you are only able to do one treatment I would advise the microneedling.&nbsp; Microneedling encourages the skin to make new collagen that will help to even out your texture issues while erasing hyperpigmentation. &nbsp;
Microdermabrasion is a great treatment for exfoliation and circulation but when dealing with issues of scarring and hyperpigmentation.&nbsp; I also recommend using a retin-A and Hydroquinone in your home care regimen to create the healthiest environment for cellular regeneration.

I would like to get rid of my acne scars and pigmentation should I do several sessions of microdermabrasion or microneedling? I do not want to do any laser treatments.

Should I do Microdermabrasion or Microneedling for acne scars and pigmentation?

Thanks for the question. It is not uncommon to have nerve pain and a "stinging" sensation after coolsculpting, especially with the older applicators. This can last for several weeks. I have also not had anyone have this pain with the new applicators. If the pain is severe, Neurontin which is a prescription medication, can be prescribed by the&nbsp; physician where you had the coolsculpting done at.

5 days after my lower abdomen CoolSculpting treatment I started experiencing stinging and pain (as well as the expected numbness) and still have it 48+ hours, and ibuprofen doesn’t seem to help - what causes this? What can I do to treat it? I did workout Friday and wonder if I overdid it.

What is causing this stinging pain 5 days after treatment?
