How does Botox® reduce wrinkles?

BOTOX blocks nerve signals from the brain to the affected muscles. This makes it especially effective on wrinkles that are caused by muscle movement. BOTOX has been successfully used for many years to treat some of the most common age-related changes. Rather than physically adding volume to wrinkles the way injectable fillers do, BOTOX prevents you from making the expressions that cause these wrinkles in the first place. When injected correctly, the medication smoothen your complexion without interfering with your ability to make natural facial expressions.

How does Botox® reshape the face?

A square and wide jawline is often due to oversized jaw muscles (masseter muscles). Although these muscles help us to chew and speak, they can become enlarged due to anatomy and overuse. When BOTOX is injected into the jaw muscles it helps soften the muscle.  As a result, the face becomes slimmer and more triangular, giving the face a more feminine V-shaped appearance.

How does Botox® treat overactive sweating?

BOTOX temporarily blocks the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate sweat glands. When the sweat glands don’t receive chemical signals, severe sweating is reduced.

How does Botox® treat TMJ pain and dental grinding?

By injecting small doses of BOTOX directly into the masseter muscle (the large muscle that moves the jaw), the muscle is weakened enough to stop involuntary grinding of the teeth and clenching of the jaw. This significantly relaxes the muscle and reduces the wear and tear on the teeth due to grinding.

What can I expect during my appointment?

We will complete a thorough review of your health history, complete a physical examination, and review your goals.  You will be asked to demonstrate facial expressions so we can pinpoint areas of concern. Then, using a very fine needle, we make a series of quick injections, which typically feel like a small pinch.  You can anticipate being out of our clinic in about 30 minutes.

When will I see results?

You will see results typically within a week post injection.

When can I return to normal activity?

Our appointment is likely to be rather brief, and you can plan to return to your normal activities immediately after receiving treatment. However, we book sufficient time to ensure that all of your questions are answered and cosmetic treatments are not rushed.

How long do results last and what is the recommended frequency of treatment?

Result can vary from person to person; however, results often last on average 3 months to 4 months. With consistent use and regular treatments, results can last up to 6 months, allowing for a longer duration between treatments to attain and maintain results.

Who should not have Botox® injections?

Botulinum Toxin products such as BOTOX are not recommended for use in pregnant or lactating women, as well as anyone who has had an allergic reaction to the drug or any of its active ingredients.  Please inform us of any neurological or immunological disease, as this will assist us with determining if Botulinum Toxin treatment is right for you.

What are the side effects of Botox® injections?

BOTOX complications often arise from inappropriate injection and medication dosing.  Therefore, it is paramount to have a medical practitioner that has extensive knowledge in facial anatomy, pharmacology, and hands-on experience to minimize the risk and ensure safety.

Incorrect injections in the forehead or around the eyes can result in droopy eyelid muscles, also known as ptosis; too much medication injected into the neck can cause muscle weakness and swallowing difficulties.

Other adverse reactions may include the following:

• • Pain or bruising at the injection site
  • Headache, face pain, eye swelling
  • Skin rash/allergic reaction
  • Local muscle weakness

How much does it cost?

Here at Infinite Medical Spa, BOTOX treatment is priced on a “per unit” basis.  During your appointment we will determine the precise amount (units) of medication needed to attain your desired results.  Contact us today for a consultation.

Then, using an ultra-fine needle, we will make a series of quick injections, which typically feel like a small pinch.

When will I see results?

Reduction in sweating are typically evident within 1 to 2 weeks.

How long do results last?

Results will vary from person to person, however, reduction in sweating typically last 6 months.  Over time, the body will slowly break down the BOTOX®  and you will regain the function of the sweat glands.

What is collagen induction therapy and microneedling?

During this treatment, the cordless, fractional, automated microneedling device composed of medical-grade stainless steel is used to create controlled micro-injuries to the skin, helping it produce collagen and elastin. The skin’s repair process results in improved texture and softer wrinkles. Microneedling also creates micro-channels which allow topical gels, creams, and serums to be absorbed more effectively, enhancing their effects in deeper layers of the skin.

What areas can collagen induction therapy and microneedling treat?

All areas on the body can be treated. The most common areas include the face, neck, and chest.

When can I return to normal activity?

Most people can return to their normal, daily activities immediately after treatment. The total healing time depends on the extent of the treatment. On average, skin might be pink 1 to 3 days after the treatment. Visible changes in the skin can develop over the course of a few days or several weeks after the treatment. Results continue to improve up to six months after the original treatment as collagen production continues over time.

What can I expect during my appointment?

We will apply a thick layer of topical gel to your skin and select the appropriate treatment setting based on your unique needs. Next, in a single motion, the microneedling pen will be gently pressed against the skin while simultaneously gliding until the entire treatment area has been covered. This process results in thousands of superficial microscopic channels throughout the entire treatment area, stimulating your skin’s natural ability to heal itself. This repair process begins almost immediately.

What type of results can I anticipate?

Wrinkle reduction, texture, tone improvement, and softer, younger-looking skin with fewer signs of aging. New collagen production reverses years of sun damage. This treatment also has a positive effect on hyper-pigmentation as well as on uneven skin tone, acne scars, and traumatic scars.

How much does it cost?

Each individual has different needs. The cost for collagen induction therapy/microneedling is calculated by treatment area and will be determined during an in-depth medical consultation.

What is a Hydrafacial?

A non-invasive, transformative skin health treatment for the best skin of your life. Every hydrafacial treatment uses patented technology to deeply cleanse, extract and hydrate the skin and can be customized further with personalized boosters, LED light therapy, and lymphatic drainage to address specific skin concerns. The results are immediate, pain-free and glowing, boosting confidence with no downtime.

Why is the treatment good for my skin?

Hydration is the foundation of healthy, radiant skin. Irritation of the skin has been proven to increase signs of aging. Hydrafacial treatments are hydrating and non-irritating.

Who is a good candidate for a Hydrafacial?

Hydrafacial treatments are designed for all skin types, skin tones, ages and genders. Even the most sensitive skin easily tolerates a Hydrafacial treatment. Our skincare professionals may choose specific treatment serums and/or customize the treatment for your unique skin conditions and needs.

How long does a Hydrafacial take?

The hydrafacial length of treatment is between 30 to 60 minute. This will be determined and discussed between you and your hydrafacialist.

Is there downtime with a Hydrafacial?

Hydrafacial treatments are fast and effective, taking as little as 30 to 60 minutes to deliver an immediate and lasting glow. The results are pain-free with no downtime.

What results are expected and how many treatments are needed?

Many clients report seeing visible skin improvement and an even, radiant skin tone after just one treatment. Moreover, the smooth results and hydration may last 5 to 7 days or even longer.

We don’t believe in quick fixes, so one treatment per month is recommended for improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots, and oily and congested skin. Continued hydrafacial treatments are highly recommended to maintain skin health results.

What are the benefits of lymphatic drainage?

• Removes toxic buildup to reveal healthy looking skin
• Helps detoxify the skin
• Decreases inflammation
• Removes unwanted buildup
• Optimizes skin health

What are the benefits of red light therapy?

LED Light exposure helps to stimulate collagen production, increase cell turnover, and reduce inflammation. When these two treatments are combined, the result is a powerful facial treatment that can improve a variety of skin concerns, from acne to wrinkles.

What are the benefits of blue light therapy?

When blue light is directed at the skin through a device, it can reach down to the pores of the skin. Without damaging other cells the way ultraviolet rays do, the blue light kills bacteria and slows the production of oil, thus eliminating two causes of acne at once.

What are Hydrafacial Skinboosters?

Boosters are potent formulas packed with active ingredients that target and treat specific concerns. Our device uses gentle suction to open pores and infuse boosters deep into skin for the most effective treatment possible. Explore our collection to find the right one for you!

• • Refreshes under eyes and reduces appearance of tiredness

  • Diminishes facial asymmetry

How does hyaluronic acid dermal filler work?

Our products come in the form of a clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid, specifically designed to mimic your body’s natural hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid dermal filler products replace lost volume, smooth away wrinkles, and define facial contours, providing immediate results. They visibly reduce moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds for a more youthful appearance.

What can I expect during my appointment?

Our Nurse Practitioner or Nurse will thoroughly review your health history, perform a physical examination, discuss your treatment goals, and review potential adverse events and management strategies.

Typically, we utilize a local or topical anesthetic to block the nerve endings and reduce pain during treatment. We will then cleanse and sterilize your skin with Stanhexidine 2% with 4% isopropyl alcohol. Depending on the location and area being treated, we may use serial injections with an ultra-fine needle or a cannula (a sterile plastic needle) to instill the clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid. Finally, we will review post-procedure care with you.

When will I see results?

You will see results immediately.

When can I return to normal activity?

What are the benefits of using Belkyra™?

• • Less invasive than double chin surgery
  • Natural and very safe
  • Short recovery period with mild swelling under the chin

What is Belkyra™ and how does it work?

Belkyra™ is a patented formulation of deoxycholic acid manufactured by Allergan, the makers of BOTOX®. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring substance in our bodies used to digest fat in our diets. Belkyra™destroys the fats membrane, allowing the chin fat to be expelled out of the body, helping to get rid of a double chin without surgery.

What areas can be treated with Belkyra™?

Belkyra™ is Health Canada approved to be used on the double chin area. Other areas can be treated; however, the effectiveness and safety have not been studied or approved.

What types of results can I anticipate from Belkyra™?

Results vary from person to person and multiple sessions are recommended (if the fatty deposit is larger) to gradually reduce the unwanted chin fat. As the body expels the chin fat, slimming of the area occurs over the next 8 weeks. An added benefit is tightening of the overlying skin in most cases.

How many treatments are recommended?

• • 2 to 5 sessions
  • Repeat chin injections every 6 to 8 weeks with Belkyra™

How long will results last?

Results are permanent; however, excessive weight gain can diminish the results.

What are the side effects of Belkyra™ treatment?

• • Swelling, possible bruising and itching
  • Possible tingling, pins and needles, numbness or pain

  • Although rare, a temporary asymmetrical smile

What are Restylane Skinboosters?

Restylane Skinboosters are specially formulated dermal fillers injected into the skin to improve elasticity, crepiness, and improve overall skin radiance. They come in the form of a clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid that is formulated to act like your body’s own natural hyaluronic acid.

How do Restylane Skinboosters work?

Restylane Skinboosters reverse the skin aging process by reintroducing hyaluronic acid into the skin.  Once injected, the water-loving hyaluronic acid molecules start to absorb water up to 200 times its weight and swell, bringing about profound hydration to the skin.  This dramatically improved hydration helps the skin looks plumper, brighter, and more youthful.

What to expect during my appointment?

We will complete a thorough review of your heath history, perform a physical examination, discuss your treatment goals, and provide in-depth education about the procedure and medication.  Depending on location and area being treated, injections may be completed by the use of serial injections with an ultra fine needle, or a cannula (a sterile plastic needle) to instill the clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid.  Numbing cream or local anesthetic can also be provided as an option.

   5.  Always wash your hands thoroughly before touching your face. There are micro pathways opened into the dermis and hands will introduce bacteria.
   6. If skin feels tight or dry, apply moisturizing cream frequently.
   7. If you currently have skin breakouts, you may find that the condition may temporarily worsen due to inflammation or swelling.
   8. Do not pick at treated skin. Doing so may result in risk of pigmentation and discolouration of the skin.
   9. Avoid ultraviolet rays and apply sunblock daily.
   10. Avoid alcohol consumption if possible, for 48 hours
   11. For 24 hours, refrain from high intensity aerobic exercise or activities that increase the body temperature like saunas, hot tubs, steam showers or exercise.
   12. Call your practitioner if any problems develop regarding rash, itching, redness, etc., for more than 24 hours and/or if you develop signs of infection.
   13. Keep hydrated by drinking water (at least eight cups daily) or hydrating fluids to improve treatment outcomes.

What is IPL Intense Pulse Light therapy?

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a technology that uses a broad spectrum of light to target specific skin concerns. It can address pigmentation issues like age spots and freckles, reduce redness from conditions like rosacea, remove unwanted hair, and promote skin rejuvenation by stimulating collagen production.

How does IPL work?

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) works by delivering a broad spectrum of light that targets specific skin components. The light is absorbed by pigments or blood vessels, converting into heat. This controlled heat can address pigmentation issues, vascular lesions, unwanted hair, and promote skin rejuvenation.

Who is a good candidate for IPL treatment?

Individuals with pigmentation issues, vascular lesions, unwanted hair, or those seeking skin rejuvenation. Candidates should have fair to medium skin tones for better outcomes.

How long does IPL treatment take?

The duration of an IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment session can range from 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the treated area.

In most cases, anesthesia or numbing is not necessary for IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments. IPL is well-tolerated and considered a relatively comfortable procedure.

What is the recovery time for IPL treatment?

The recovery time for IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments is minimal. Mild redness and swelling may occur immediately after the procedure but typically subside within a few hours to a day. It’s important to protect the treated area from sun exposure, avoid harsh skincare products, and moisturize the skin. Makeup can usually be applied soon after treatment. Skin flaking or peeling may occur as part of the natural renewal process.
