FAQ

The difference between fillers and botulinum toxin is that fillers add volume, while botulinum toxin reduces muscle contraction. Fillers can, for example, plump up the cheeks or lips. Botulinum toxin can reduce the lines that form when frowning, for example.

It is not possible to undergo a Botox or filler treatment during pregnancy or if you are breastfeeding.

The final result of both a Botox and filler treatment is clearly visible after approximately 14 days.

This depends on the desired result and the available options. We invite you for a free consultation to discuss this with one of our practitioners.

A zone refers to a muscle group. For example, a forehead wrinkle is a muscle group, a frown line is a muscle group, and crow's feet are a muscle group. If you want to have one of these muscle groups treated, you book "1 zone." For example, if you want to treat multiple muscle groups, you book multiple zones and benefit from the volume discount.

We would like to refer you to the rates page.

Botox doesn't have a permanent effect and will wear off after an average of 3-4 months. With regular Botox treatments, the active ingredient can remain active longer, allowing you to enjoy the results longer. A filler treatment depends heavily on the treated area but remains visible for an average of 6 months.

Our fillers contain lidocaine, a numbing agent. This makes the vast majority of treatments very manageable. For more sensitive areas, such as the lips, an additional numbing cream can be used. The Botox treatment does not require anesthesia and is not considered particularly painful; it involves small, short injections.

After treatment, slight swelling, redness, or light bruising may occur. Naturally, care is taken during the treatment and every effort is made to minimize these side effects.

The duration of a treatment depends on the size and number of areas to be treated. An estimate of the treatment time can be made during a consultation and prior to the treatment.

During the first week after your treatment, it's important to avoid the sun as much as possible. This also applies to saunas and tanning beds. It's recommended to always apply sunscreen with a high SPF. Heat can cause the body to break down the product more quickly.

We advise against doing this immediately after the treatment. After 14 days, the product will have settled, and facial treatments may be performed.

We advise against wearing makeup for the first 24 hours after treatment.

You are legally required to be at least 18 years old to undergo treatment with us. Therefore, we screen everyone beforehand for their treatment. It is also wise to bring your ID or passport.

This is not permitted during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Sometimes it's not possible if you have a permanent filler placed in the past. It's also not permitted in combination with certain medications or if you have a specific muscle disease. Before the treatment, we ask you to complete a medical questionnaire so the practitioner can assess whether it's safe for you to undergo the treatment.

The products we use comply with European guidelines. They have been extensively tested, and we know they are safe for the body when used correctly. Our practitioners are trained in the use of these products and will do everything possible to ensure the treatment is safe.

No, we only work with non-permanent fillers that are naturally broken down by the body.

We work exclusively with premium brands. For Botox treatments, we use Azzalure. For filler treatments, we use Stylage and Teosyal. For skin care, we use Restylane and Profhilo.

The treatment is performed by a BIG-registered physician or skin therapist. You can meet our practitioners on the team page.

The treatment is generally well-tolerated. The sensation of a chemical peel is described as tingling, itching, burning, and warm. A fan is used during the treatment to minimize discomfort.

The treatment feels like small pricks in the skin and is not painful. The skin can be numbed with a cream if necessary, so you'll feel virtually nothing.
