- Katherine’s approach
-
Katherine starts with a conservative dose. If the result is lighter than you want once it settles, more units can be added at a follow-up visit. She carries all three products, explains how they differ, and lets you choose.
If the underlying concern is proportion, she may suggest facial balancing before adding more units.
- Who it’s for
-
Adults bothered by expression lines that linger at rest, or who want to slow new ones from settling in. Treatment is postponed during pregnancy or while nursing.
- The process
-
Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin so your lines can be read clearly. Katherine maps the treatment, then completes the injections in a few minutes. Most patients feel a small pinch at each point, with no numbing needed.
Change usually shows in 5 to 7 days, with the full result around day 14.
- Downtime
-
Aftercare is short. For the first 4 hours, do not lie flat. Skip exercise and alcohol for a day. Facials wait a week. Temporary redness or minor bruising at the injection sites can occur.
Results typically hold 3 to 6 months. The exact stretch depends on the area treated, your muscle strength, and how your body responds.
