Aesthetics Frequently Asked Questions
The experts at Serendipity Lifestyle & Wellness Spa have years of experience performing thousands of BOTOX injections. You can trust that we will deliver subtle, natural results from a highly trained and experienced medical expert in facial anatomy. No one should be able to tell you’ve had any “work” done.
The Botox injection process is quick. Once your consultation has completed and we’ve devised a “game plan” for how to treat your wrinkles, the injection process takes only about 10 minutes.
The results of Botox generally last up to 4 months depending on the patient’s skin type and the depth & severity of his or her lines.
You may begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours after your injections.
Yes! One of the best things about Serendipity VIP Facials is that it is safe and effective for all skin types.
A Serendipity VIP Facial is much easier and gentler on the skin when compared to average facials. It rejuvenates and cleans your skin without any discomfort during or after your treatment.
Every client is different when it comes to how often they should receive a Serendipity VIP Facial treatment depending on their lifestyle and skin type. However, the majority of our clients find the best results when they visit us for a Serendipity VIP Facial about once monthly. This may change over time depending on your skin. We will always advise you on what is in the best interest of your unique skin.
Not at all! Serendipity VIP Facials are completely pain-free and in fact, many of our visitors find that the Serendipity VIP Facial is quite a relaxing experience.
The number of injections you get will depend on the severity of your lines and the number of lines you have. Generally for crow’s feet, we suggest 3 injections into the areas of the muscle that frame the side of each eye. For frown lines, you may receive up to 5 injections into the muscles between your brows and in your forehead. For forehead lines specifically, you may also receive up to 5 injections into the muscle.
Absolutely! BOTOX for men is common at our practice. Crow’s feet, forehead lines, frown lines are not exclusively an area of concern for women. Men get these wrinkles too over time and may wish to look younger and appear more refreshed.
Chemical peel recovery time varies based on the strength of peel you receive. Your return to normal activity can range from a day to a week with a light peel. A medium or deep chemical peel can require a week or two.
There may be some discomfort depending on the strength of peel you receive. Before your chemical peel in Katy, we will be sure to review everything you should expect during and after treatment and help you manage any symptoms as they arise.
Yes, regardless of which chemical peel we administer, results will be noticeable once your skin recovers, which can take as short as a few hours for a lighter peel, or a few days for a deeper peel!
We recommend light chemicals for maintenance every 3 to 6 weeks. Mediums peels can be applied every 3 to 6 months. Deep chemical peels should only be administered once or twice a year. Our team can help you decide the best long-term care plan for your unique skin type and aesthetic goals.
The cost of a chemical peel will vary based on the specific application we use. We will discuss care costs during your initial consultation after we have determined your treatment plan.
Typically, patients report slight discomfort during a Microneedling treatment. Many patients do not require topical numbing cream, but your comfort is our main priority at Serendipity Lifestyle & Wellness Spa, so pain management options are always available.
Typically, you should see results following the first or second treatment. We recommend at least three treatment sessions spaced out over the course of a few weeks.
We recommend getting a Microneedling treatment done every 4 to 6 weeks for optimal results!
Kybella utilizes an active ingredient that is naturally produced by the body. This substance breaks down fat and removes it from the body naturally.
We routinely see male patients for Kybella in Katy to address their various aesthetic concerns. Injectables can be a very quick, effective, and noninvasive way to treat what’s bothering you! If you’re interested in learning more about what treatments may be best for you, feel free to use our Virtual Consultation Tool for instant, personalized feedback.
Currently, Kybella is only FDA approved to be used to reduce fat under the chin, commonly called a double chin.
Once Kybella treats and destroys the fat cells beneath the chin, this is permanent. Future changes in weight, lifestyle, or hormones may influence the overall increase in fullness in the area as a reflection of total body changes. However, Kybella is designed to totally destroy fat cells in the first place, so they cannot return.
Depending on the amount of fat underneath your chin, along with your overall aesthetic goals, the number of treatments may vary. We will discuss this during your initial consultation at Serendipity Lifestyle & Wellness Spa. Most of our patients need between two and four Kybella treatments to reach their final goal.
Kybella results are not instant. It takes between three to six months for the injection to destroy the fat cells, and for those fat cells to be naturally eliminated by the body.
Kybella is a specific injection that we strategically place over the area of the chin to target submental fat. Kybella injections only require a very tiny needle, and the entire treatment usually only takes about 10 to 20 minutes.
At Serendipity Lifestyle & Wellness Spa, we are not only dedicated to helping you achieve your goals; we want you to be comfortable throughout the process! Luckily, most of our patients report very little discomfort from Kybella injections in Katy. There can be some fullness and tightness for a couple of days following the procedure. Our team will provide you with post-treatment instructions for how to properly care for your skin in the days and weeks that follow to help you feel comfortable and satisfied with your treatment.
Serendipity Lifestyle & Wellness Spa offers other alternatives to Kybella in Indianapolis should a patient decide they do not want Kybella injections. Certain patients also may not be a candidate. For these patients and for your overall convenience, we also offer CoolSculpting for nonsurgical fat reduction of a double chin.
NeoClear laser uses 650 Microsecond Technology®, making it safe and effective for all ages and skin types, including tanned skin.
The best way to find out if you’re a candidate for NeoClear is with an in-person consultation with one of our laser specialists. We’ll analyze your skin, discuss your concerns, and determine if this is the best treatment for your needs.
Results from NeoClear are progressive, meaning they get better as time goes on. You’ll notice less oil production, smaller pore size, and improvement in blemishes. Everyone’s skin is different, so how quickly they see results varies. For some, they see an immediate difference after just one or two treatment sessions, while others may need a full course of treatments to see results.
The cost of filler in Katy depends on the brand, placement, and amount of filler you need to achieve your goals. Filler is typically priced per syringe.
It can be confusing to know which brand of filler is best for your needs, as each one works a little bit differently from the others. Luckily, you don’t have to be an expert in filler brands! Our team will make recommendations based on your individual needs, aesthetic goals, and even budget to ensure you are matched with the right brand of filler.
Every person may need a different amount of filler depending on the placement and their short-term and long-term aesthetic goals. During your consultation we will help you determine the number of syringes of filler that you need to accomplish those goals!
One of the most common questions we receive at Serendipity Lifestyle & Wellness Spa is the difference between Botox and filler. Botox is a brand of “neuromodulator,” which relaxes the underlying muscles that cause wrinkles to form. Conversely, filler helps lift and “fill” areas that have lost volume or show wrinkles. Most of the time, it is a combination of both of these that truly produce the most radiant results.
Medical grade skin care like Serendipity Rx contains a higher concentration of the ingredients that actually work to heal your skin.
