1. How can I get rid of wrinkles and fine lines?
At Black Lotus Wellness + Aesthetics, we offer a variety of non-surgical wrinkle treatments that deliver natural, noticeable results, including:
- Botox & Dysport to relax dynamic wrinkles (forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines)
- Dermal fillers to smooth static wrinkles and restore lost volume
- Microneedling to stimulate collagen and reduce fine lines over time
- Chemical peels for skin resurfacing and wrinkle softening
- Laser treatments for skin tightening and texture improvement
We personalize every plan based on your skin, goals, and lifestyle.
2. What are “elevens,” and how do I treat them?
“Elevens” are the vertical lines that appear between your eyebrows when frowning, caused by repeated muscle movement and collagen loss.
These glabellar lines can be effectively treated with Botox or Dysport, which relax the muscles that create the lines. If the wrinkles are deep, we may also recommend dermal filler or microneedling to further improve skin texture.
3. What’s the difference between Botox and dermal fillers?
- Botox (and similar neuromodulators) reduce the appearance of wrinkles by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause expression lines.
- Dermal fillers add volume to areas where aging or facial structure has led to hollowness or deep lines (e.g. cheeks, lips, smile lines). We often use both in combination for full-face rejuvenation, depending on your needs.
4. Is there downtime after wrinkle or aesthetic treatments?
Most of our treatments involve little to no downtime:
- Botox/Dysport: Mild swelling or redness for a few hours
- Fillers: Possible swelling or bruising for 1–3 days
- Microneedling/Chemical peels: Mild redness or flaking for 2–5 days
We’ll guide you on how to care for your skin post-treatment and recommend when to resume normal activities.
5. What is the best age to start Botox or anti-aging treatments?
There’s no perfect age — it depends on your goals and facial movement. Many clients start “preventative Botox” in their late 20s to early 30s to stop fine lines from becoming deeper wrinkles. Others begin in their 40s or 50s for corrective results. We’ll help you determine the right time and strategy for your skin.
6. What facial treatments do you offer for glowing, healthy skin?
We offer custom facials, hydrafacials, chemical peels, and skin tightening treatments that:
- Cleanse and detox your skin
- Minimize pores
- Brighten dull or uneven skin tone
- Hydrate and nourish with medical-grade products
Facials are ideal for ongoing skin maintenance and pairing with other aesthetic services.
7. Do you offer laser treatments or microneedling for skin texture and scars?
Yes! We specialize in collagen-boosting skin treatments like:
- Microneedling with or without PRP (platelet-rich plasma)
- Laser skin resurfacing for fine lines, acne scars, and pigmentation
- Radiofrequency skin tightening to firm loose or aging skin
These treatments are excellent for rejuvenating skin tone, reducing scars, and boosting elasticity.
8. How long do results from Botox and fillers last?
- Botox/Dysport: Results typically last 3–4 months
- Dermal Fillers: Depending on the area and product used, results can last 6–18 months
We recommend maintenance visits to keep your look consistent and refreshed.
9. Are your treatments safe?
Absolutely. All of our treatments are performed by licensed, trained professionals using FDA-approved products in a medical-grade environment. Safety and natural-looking results are always our top priorities.
