I really liked the lip shape she gave me. She was quick and highly skilled. I would recommend her to friends and also return for another treatment. The office is clean- the only con is that it's on a busy street.
Neekan does not need this review because she has an overflowing wait list of returning and new clients, works at 3 centers (one of which is her own new clinic in Denver), & has an established Instagram following of >30k where she shares her balanced aesthetic philosophy, countless before-after transformations, behind-the-scenes, and nuggets of knowledge teaching other injectors who follow...
During my wife surgery with Dr Motykie, I decided to spend some times next door at the Motykie Med Spa. I went for an HydraFacial treatment to hydrate clean and rejuvenate my face skin. It has been a great experience under the hands of a super friendly girl explaining me each stp of the treatment why it is done and what it does. I really saw the difference my skin was younger, well hydrated...
I will be getting rhinoplasty (my first and hopefully last plastic surgery) with Dr Motykie on 2/11. Dr M was recommended by a good friend, so after doing a lot of research online, I took the plunge and went with him without doing other consultations. I'm a little nervous since this is a huge expense and I worry about the results coming out the way I want them. I've attached photos,...
I got Juvederm XC injected on my lips by an Aesthetic Practioner from CALI who was visiting NYC! She is based in Beverly Hills, California. Her name is Pawnta Abrahimi, search her FB! She is amazing and very skilled with lips. I went to to a surgeon before her in NYC (board certified), but didn't like my results and he didn't have any technique. I am so happy with my results now. She defined...
A: Without any photos, it is difficult to determine whether microneedling alone will be enough to correct surgical scarring on the face. Scars require special techniques and timing treatment is critical to successfully lightening and erasing scars. You might be a good candidate for microneedling with PRP which helps stimulate collagen production and smooth out scars. Microneedling with PRP has proven to be an effective scar treatment.
A: Exilis Elite is a powerful fat reduction and skin tightening treatment that works at a deeper level than other body contouring treatments. It is especially effective for treating stubborn abdominal fat that many women accumulate, even with diet and exercise. The treatment is delivered to the superficial layer only so it will not affect any tissues below the muscles. You can undergo treatment even if you haven’t had children yet. It’s important to keep in mind that when you gain weight during pregnancy, the results may be compromised.
A: Botox relaxes the muscles and does nothing for fat deposits or excess skin. It can smooth out any wrinkles you might have around the neck area but there are other options for removing excess fat. Liposuction or non-surgical options like Kybella can help create a more sculpted look to eliminate the appearance of a double chin.
A: Botox itself cannot raise histamine levels. In fact, none of the neuromodulators used today, including Dysport or Xeomin, will have any impact on histamine levels. As long as you are not allergic to any compounds in Botox and know what to expect, you will not have to worry about problems with Botox.
A: Most patients return to work within 1 to 2 weeks after a rhinoplasty. Your recovery time will depend on the extent of surgery and how quickly your bruising and swelling resolves. Your surgeon can provide more information based on the type of procedure he/she will be performing and an estimated recovery time.
