____________________________________________________________________________________________

Does It Hurt?
____________________________________________________________________________________________
Most people are surprised in how little these procedures hurt. These Cosmetic Injections are performed with very fine, tiny needles and Dr Miller is very gentle with his technique. Generally, you’ll feel a little prick, or a slight sting which lasts only seconds.
In addition, the new fillers offers a built in anesthetic that activates as it hits the skin for a painless procedure.

Do I Need To Do Anything To Get Good Results?
____________________________________________________________________________________________
We recommend you exercise your facial muscles for 1-2 hours after aa anti-wrinkle treatment to help the protein flow evenly through the muscles for best results. We also suggest you use good skincare products on a regular basis to slow down the natural ageing process. We recommend and supply Aspect Dr and Results RX cosmetic ranges which are skin treatment ranges specifically formulated and only available from medical cosmetic clinics and we are happy to discuss with you during your consultation. Also, it is recommended that you stay out of direct exposure to the sun, and the use of 30+ sunscreens, to help fight against future facial lines and wrinkles.
