How is a B-12 shot different than taking an oral supplement?

Injecting nutrients intramuscularly sidesteps this issue by delivering nutrients directly to the cells, feeding your body instantaneously for immediate utilization.

Can I get dermal fillers the day before a big event?
Dermal filler recovery time may vary. While not everyone will bruise, there may be swelling and bruising at the injection site that can last up to 2 weeks. We do not recommend scheduling filler appointments around major events due to the possibility of bruising.
How do fillers get rid of my wrinkles?
Dermal fillers replace lost natural hyaluronic acid in the skin and add volume to the treated areas.
What happens if I need more correction or I didn’t achieve the results I anticipated?
We are a results driven practice. We therefore offer a complimentary 2 week follow up visit after all dermal filler treatments where we can re-evaluate and adjust if necessary.
