Results typically last between six months and two years, depending on the treatment area, product used and individual metabolism. Areas with more movement, such as the lips, tend to require more frequent maintenance than areas like the cheeks. Your practitioner will confirm an expected timeline for your specific plan.

Mild swelling and bruising at the treatment site are common and usually settle within a few days to a week. Most clients return to normal daily activities immediately, though we recommend avoiding major social events for around a week after treatment to allow any swelling to fully resolve.

A conservative, staged approach is designed to restore natural contour rather than create an obviously treated look. Your practitioner will assess your facial proportions carefully and recommend amounts suited to your goals, checking in with you throughout the process rather than treating everything at once.

Commonly treated areas include the cheeks, temples, lips, jawline and under-eye hollows. Your practitioner will assess which areas will make the most visible, natural-looking difference to your face during your consultation, rather than recommending every area by default.

Most clients describe mild discomfort, similar to a pinch or pressure, which is usually well managed with numbing cream or ice where appropriate. Sensitivity can vary depending on the treatment area, with lips generally considered slightly more sensitive than cheeks.

Results are typically visible immediately after treatment, though any initial swelling should be allowed to settle over the following one to two weeks to see the true outcome. Your practitioner will schedule a follow-up to review your results once swelling has resolved.
