A cosmetic treatment can lead to many questions. Below are the most frequently asked questions from our customers.
Botox (botulinum toxin) is a neuromodulator. This drug causes nerve signals to block and thereby relax your facial muscles. Botox thereby reduces lines or wrinkles.
Generally, the results of botox remain visible for 3 to 5 months. Over time, the body metabolizes the drug, causing the muscle movements to return. When you maintain a botox treatment, the results often retain a longer period of time.
This varies from person to person, but usually it takes about 3 to 5 days to see the effects of Botox. In some cases, it may even take 2 weeks to see optimal results. This is why we always recommend waiting to see the results, this prevents using too much Botox.
No. An injectables treatment is painless because we use the thinnest needle available worldwide (THE INVISIBLE NEEDLE).
Yes. Botox has been extensively scientifically researched and approved. It is even used in hospitals against various medical conditions.
As long as the botox treatment is performed by a cosmetic doctor, this chance is very small. In fact, this only happens when too much botox is used. The doctors at Aēstec therefore work very subtly and precisely, ensuring a natural result.
An Aēslift is suitable for people who experience volume loss in the face, such as sagging or "hamster cheeks," and for those who want a fresher appearance. Muscle relaxants, on the other hand, is used to treat wrinkles and fine lines, such as the frown line. Muscle relaxants relax the muscles to prevent wrinkles, while fillers are used to fill in.
Unfortunately, some people are unaware of their unnatural appearance. In cosmetic procedures, the quality of the doctor and the treatment itself is very important to achieve natural results. Using the wrong low-quality fillers or placing them improperly in the skin layers of the face can lead to an unnatural appearance. At Aēstec, we use ultrasound to determine the exact position of the fillers in the face. This ensures that our clients can enjoy natural results in both the short and long term.
At Aestec, ultrasound is used for two main reasons. First, for safety, because research has shown that using ultrasound reduces the risk of serious complications. This allows the doctors at Aestec to accurately see where the fillers are placed and avoid blood vessels. Second, ultrasound is essential for achieving natural results. Even experienced doctors can accidentally get into the wrong layer of skin without ultrasound, resulting in an unnatural appearance. This is why Aestec places great importance on the use of ultrasound.
At Aēstec, we work with Juvéderm fillers. These fillers have been used for over 23 years, so we have a good understanding of how this reacts over the long term. Stopping the use of fillers does not mean that the face will completely sag or that skin aging will suddenly accelerate. Skin aging proceeds at the normal rate associated with your body. Eventually, the skin will age in the same way as people who do not use fillers.
At Aēstec, our doctors work exclusively with Juvéderm fillers, the best-selling filler brand on the market. The results of a filler treatment remain visible for 18 to 24 months. After this period, it is not necessary to undergo the full treatment again. A small touch-up is sufficient to continue enjoying the results of the filler treatment after 18-24 months.
The chances of getting bruises are small. They usually disappear on their own within 2 to 7 days. Any bruising has no adverse impact on the final result and can be easily hidden with makeup. It is even possible to use makeup the very next day to camouflage it.
Yes, Juvéderm fillers are completely broken down and removed from the body. These fillers used at Aēstec consist of hyaluronic acid. This is a protein naturally present in the skin. As a result, the fillers are gradually broken down by your own body. The speed of this process can vary from person to person.
When treated with hyaluronic acid fillers, your skin/body may react to them. Allergic reactions are very rare. If you are in doubt or have many allergies, it is possible to perform a test to rule this out (such as the DNA test developed by Erasmus MC).
Profhilo and fillers differ. In fact, fillers offer the skin extra volume, while Profhilo is a skin booster. It consists of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance native to the body. This stimulates the skin to make extra elastin and collagen, giving you smooth and radiant skin.
You can immediately resume your daily activities, but it is recommended that you do not exercise, go to the spa and/or use the tanning bed for 48 hours after treatment. In addition, it is important to always wear a good sunscreen!
To achieve optimal results, a minimum of 2 Profhilo treatments are required, with a month between each treatment. The natural result becomes visible after about 6-8 weeks. Because the skin has to work from the inside out, this process takes more time than, for example, filler treatment, where results are visible immediately.
At Aēstec, our doctors work exclusively with Juvéderm fillers, the best-selling filler brand on the market. The results of Aēslift treatment remain visible for 18 to 24 months. After this period, there is no need to undergo the full treatment again. A minor touch-up is sufficient to continue enjoying the results of the Aēslift after 18-24 months.
Yes, it is possible. The skin on the neck and décolletage often shows signs of aging faster than the skin on the face. This is due to several factors, such as sun exposure, fewer sebum and sweat glands in the neck and décolletage area, and less fat. To treat a sagging neck, we use collagen-stimulating fillers and hydration with Profhilo (pure hyaluronic acid).
The Aēslift is a scientifically based treatment method for using fillers alone to elevator skin, add volume and tighten the chin and jawline without surgery. An Aēslift is approachable because there is virtually no recovery time involved and the results are natural.
Unlike a surgical facelift, this treatment has minimal risk of complications and does not require the complications of anesthesia. Whereas the surgical facelift has a recovery time of 6 weeks, it is possible to return to work immediately after Aēslift treatment.
No. An injectables treatment is painless because we use the thinnest needle available worldwide (THE INVISIBLE NEEDLE). A filler treatment is also not painful because there is anesthetic in the fillers. A lip treatment can be sensitive because the lips are very well supplied with blood and many nerves, for this we use special anesthetic cream. In addition, our doctors work very precisely and very carefully so that no discomfort is felt.
We recommend scheduling your appointment 2 weeks in advance of an important event.
It is essential to seek good advice for injectable treatment and make an informed choice. It is not just about comparing prices and products, but also about assessing the doctors' expertise and experience.
At Aēstec, the doctors' combination of product selection, experience, expertise and scientific underpinning makes a difference to the prices. We strive to deliver the very best results and highest quality with lasting effect.
(Expensive) serums and creams can keep your skin well-cared for and elastic, but they cannot cure one major consequence of ageing: volume loss. Whereas young people have volume in crucial areas of the face, the loss of volume makes for a tired, sometimes grumpy appearance. Fillers are used to soften wrinkles and/or restore volume so that your face looks less tired, softer and fuller.
As a specialized cosmetic clinic in injectables, we take various aspects into consideration. We consider not only a person's unique facial characteristics and age, but also personality, occupation and ethnicity before creating a treatment plan. Our holistic approach means we look at the entire face to avoid unnatural results. We also clearly indicate when we cannot treat something to avoid unnatural effects.
Because insufficient scientific research has been done in the area of injectables and pregnancy, we do not treat pregnant or breastfeeding women. At Aēstec, safety comes first.
Yes, it is possible to do the treatment immediately after the intake.
