Stepping into the world of aesthetic treatments can be exciting, but knowing how often to schedule your treatments is key to achieving and maintaining the best results. Whether you're considering anti-aging procedures, skin rejuvenation, or body sculpting, consistency and timing matter. Here's a beginner-friendly guide to help you navigate your aesthetic journey.
Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botox, Xeomin)
Recommended Frequency: Every 3 to 4 months
Why? The effects gradually wear off as muscle movement returns, so regular treatments help maintain a smooth, youthful appearance.
Best Candidates: Individuals looking to prevent or reduce fine lines and wrinkles, particularly in the forehead, crow’s feet, and frown lines.
Pre-Treatment Tips: Avoid alcohol, blood thinners, and NSAIDs a few days before treatment to minimize bruising.
Post-Treatment Care: Refrain from rubbing the area, excessive exercise, or lying down immediately after the procedure.
Dermal Fillers
Recommended Frequency: Every 6 to 12 months
Why? Fillers break down over time, and touch-ups help maintain volume and contour.
Best Candidates: Those looking to restore facial volume, enhance lips, or smooth deep-set wrinkles.
Longevity Factors: Lifestyle choices, metabolism, and the type of filler used can impact duration.
Skin Rejuvenation (M22 IPL, Laser Treatments, Chemical Peels)
Recommended Frequency: Every 4 to 6 weeks for a series, then maintenance every 3 to 6 months
Why? Collagen production takes time, and multiple sessions help achieve optimal skin clarity and texture.
Best for: Treating hyperpigmentation, acne scars, fine lines, and sun damage.
Important Considerations: Sunscreen use is crucial post-treatment to prevent new pigmentation.
HydraFacial & Medical-Grade Facials
Recommended Frequency: Every 4 to 6 weeks
Why? Regular deep cleansing and hydration keep the skin healthy, radiant, and well-maintained.
Best for: All skin types, especially those prone to dryness, congestion, or dullness.
Enhancements: Can be combined with boosters, LED therapy, or dermaplaning for added benefits.
Microneedling (Including PRP & Skin Boosters)
Recommended Frequency: Every 4 to 6 weeks for a series, then maintenance every 3 to 6 months
Why? Helps with collagen stimulation and skin renewal; multiple sessions yield the best results.
Ideal for: Reducing fine lines, acne scars, and improving skin texture.
Pre/Post Care: Avoid retinol and exfoliants before treatment; post-care includes hydration and sun protection.
Ultherapy & Thermage (Skin Tightening & Lifting)
Recommended Frequency: Once every 12 to 18 months
Why? These treatments work by stimulating collagen production, and results gradually improve over time.
Best Candidates: Those experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity on the face, neck, or body.
Pain Level: Some discomfort may be felt during treatment but is manageable with numbing cream or pain relief.
Emsculpt Neo & CoolSculpting (Body Contouring & Fat Reduction)
Recommended Frequency:
Emsculpt Neo: 4 initial sessions over 2 weeks, then maintenance every 3 to 6 months
CoolSculpting: Based on individual results; typically, 1 to 3 sessions per area
Why? Regular sessions help maintain muscle tone and fat reduction effects.
Ideal for: Those looking for non-invasive body sculpting solutions.
Expected Results: Gradual fat reduction over weeks to months, while Emsculpt Neo strengthens muscles simultaneously.
