Consultation and Pricing

Dr. Jackie offers same-day consultations upon request, either before or after dental treatment, with immediate treatment availability. New patients and those providing referrals enjoy discounted rates. Prices vary based on the number of units required.

Aesthetic and Functional Benefits of Botox

Botox injections help relax the muscles in the face, offering both aesthetic and functional benefits. These injections are particularly beneficial for patients suffering from jaw clenching, teeth grinding, and migraines. Aesthetically, Botox treats fine lines on the forehead, crow’s feet, smoker’s lines around the lips, and ‘bunny lines’ on the nose. Functionally, it is commonly used to treat patients with TMJ disorders, relaxing the masseter muscles to reduce clenching and grinding forces, which also results in a slimmer facial appearance. Typically, Botox effects last between 3-5 months, although this can vary for each patient.

How to Prepare for Your Botox Appointment

  • Avoid blood-thinning medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, vitamin E, and ginseng for a week before treatment to minimize bruising. – Refrain from consuming alcohol at least 24 hours prior to your appointment to reduce bruising and swelling.
  • Schedule your treatment at least 2 weeks before any special events.
  • During your consultation, clearly discuss your aesthetic goals and any concerns with Dr. Jackie.

Post-operative Instructions for After Care

  • Avoid strenuous activities for 3-4 hours post-treatment to minimize bruising and swelling.
  • Do not touch or manipulate the treated area for 3-4 hours.
  • Full effects typically take 2-10 days to manifest.

Dermal Filler Procedures

Lip Augmentation
Dr. Jackie has received specialized training to master the art of achieving a beautifully symmetric smile that complements the lips. Adding filler to the lips allows for a more balanced facial appearance, harmonizing with the facial anatomy and teeth. Additionally, it provides significant hydration to the lips, enhancing their texture and appearance. Dr. Jackie collaborates closely with her patients to understand their goals and delivers results that align with their desired outcomes.

Nasolabial Folds
The nasolabial folds, often referred to as “smile lines,” run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth. Over time, these lines can deepen, contributing to an aged appearance. Dr. Jackie uses dermal fillers to add volume to this area, softening the folds and providing a subtly more youthful look. This approach not only reduces the appearance of these lines but also restores the natural contours of the face.

Patient-Specific Treatment

Dr. Jackie works meticulously with each patient to develop a unique treatment plan tailored to their specific needs and aesthetic goals. By taking into account the patient’s facial structure and desired outcomes, she ensures that each procedure enhances their natural beauty in a harmonious and balanced way.

Cheek Filler
Adding dermal fillers to the cheek area can significantly enhance facial symmetry and provide a more defined, sculpted appearance. Dr. Jackie expertly injects fillers to restore lost volume, lift the cheeks, and create a youthful contour that enhances overall facial aesthetics.

Customized Dermal Filler Products

Dr. Jackie offers a variety of dermal filler products, each selected based on the area being treated and the patient’s specific anatomy and treatment goals. This individualized approach ensures optimal results, tailored to meet the unique needs of every client.
