Can I have an online consultation before traveling to Mexico?
Yes. Dermatologists in Mexico frequently offer online consultations for international patients. During the appointment, the specialist can discuss your aesthetic concerns, review your medical history, and recommend appropriate injectable treatments. While the consultation can help develop a treatment plan, the final assessment is typically completed in person before the procedure.
How long do the results of injectable treatments last?
The duration of the results can vary depending on the specific product and technique used. Generally, Botox results last between 3 to 4 months, while dermal fillers can last from 9 months to 18 months.
Are injectables painful?
Most patients only experience mild discomfort, similar to a small pinch. Numbing creams can be used to reduce any discomfort, and many professionals use techniques to make the procedure as painless as possible.
How often should I repeat injectable treatments?
The recommendation can vary depending on individual skin characteristics and aesthetic goals. For botulinum toxin, it is generally suggested every 4 to 6 months, while dermal fillers may require an annual evaluation to determine if a touch-up is needed.
