Downtime:

For all injections, even though its a very small chance, bruising could possibly occur as our face surface is very vascular.  

Down time could be 24-48hrs at injection sites. If target cool is used, downtime would be reduced. We usually analyze your skin's immune system and gage how many units your skin could take the units to minimize the bruising. 

​

How many units?

Typically, its about 50 units each side. However, we are a conservative practice, therefore, we would recommend to start with 30 units each side and come back after 2 weeks for further analysis to see if you need additional units.
