What are the benefits of getting Botox or Juvederm from a dentist over other providers?
Choosing a dentist for Botox or Juvederm provides several benefits. Dentists are experts in managing pain, ensuring a comfortable experience, and have access to advanced techniques for precise injection. Additionally, since Botox and Juvederm are often used to treat facial areas near the mouth, dentists can offer optimal results with their deep understanding of oral and facial muscles.
How long do the effects of Botox and Juvederm last?
Botox results typically last 3-6 months, depending on the individual and the treatment area. Juvederm, a dermal filler, can last 6-12 months, depending on the product used and the treated area. Dr. Gretchen Kelley will discuss your goals with you and create a customized treatment plan to ensure you achieve the best and most lasting results.
Are there any risks or side effects to receiving Botox or Juvederm from a dentist?
Botox and Juvederm carry some potential side effects like any cosmetic treatment, though they are rare. Common side effects include mild swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection site. These effects usually subside within a few hours or days. Dr. Gretchen Kelley will thoroughly explain any potential risks during your consultation and provide aftercare instructions to minimize discomfort and ensure the best outcome.
