WHAT IS XEOMIN®? XEOMIN® (incobotulinumtoxinA) is a prescription medication injected into muscles and used to temporarily improve the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults. XEOMIN® contains botulinum toxin type A, a protein purified from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. HOW DOES XEOMIN® WORK? When you squint or frown, the muscles between your eyebrows contract, causing the skin to furrow and fold. Over time, as your skin ages and loses some of its elasticity, these repeated contractions can cause persistent frown lines. Botulinum toxin type A – the active ingredient in XEOMIN®– acts on nerve endings in muscles to prevent muscle fibers from contracting. By reducing these contractions, XEOMIN® can temporarily reduce the lines between your eyebrows. IS XEOMIN® PROVEN? XEOMIN® was proven effective in two randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled clinical trials of 547 healthy, adult patients. The average age of patients in the study was 46 years. Patients received 20 Units of XEOMIN® and were classified as responders if they had a 2-grade improvement on a 4-point scale as assessed by the physician and patient. Using these criteria, treatment success was higher with XEOMIN® than placebo on Day 30 in both studies (60% and 48% vs. 0% for placebo in both studies). Based on these trials, XEOMIN® received FDA approval for use in glabellar lines in 2011. HOW DO I KNOW IF XEOMIN® IS RIGHT FOR ME? If you are an adult with moderate to severe glabellar lines, XEOMIN® may be right for you. Do not use XEOMIN® if you are allergic to botulinum toxin or any of the other ingredients in XEOMIN®. You should also not use XEOMIN® if you have had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin product or have a skin infection at the planned injection site. WHAT SHOULD I TELL MY DOCTOR BEFORE TREATMENT? Before receiving treatment with XEOMIN®, you should tell your doctor about all of your medical conditions, including whether you have a disease that affects your muscles and nerves, have allergies to any botulinum toxin product, or have experienced any side effect from any other botulinum toxin in the past. In addition, tell your doctor about your medical history and all the medicines you take, including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Especially tell your doctor if you have received any other botulinum toxin product in the last four months or in the past. Be sure your doctor knows exactly which product(s) you received and when you received them. WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING TREATMENT? During treatment, which usually takes about 10-20 minutes, your doctor will inject XEOMIN® into the muscles in your forehead that cause frown lines between your eyebrows. No anesthesia is required; however, your physician may use a topical anesthetic or cold pack to reduce any discomfort. WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO SEE RESULTS? You may begin to see visible smoothing as early as 3-4 days after injection. The median first onset of effect was less than a week. The maximum effect occurred at 30 days. The typical duration of effect was up to 3 months in clinical trials but may last significantly longer or shorter in individual patients. ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT LOOKING PLASTIC OR OVERDONE? Looking plastic or overdone is a common concern among individuals considering an in-office treatment for moderate to severe frown lines. There are steps you can take to make you feel more comfortable. First, have a detailed discussion with your provider. You want to talk through every concern you have, until you feel comfortable. Your provider, who is experienced in facial anatomy, can determine the right options for you. For example, the most widely used procedure for moderate to severe frown lines is neurotoxin injections, a class of prescription medication that has been shown to be effective in many studies. Finally, ask for an FDA-approved product, such as XEOMIN®.

Explore Botox cosmetic treatment options at Studio G Aesthetics MedSpa. Achieve youthful results with our Botox cosmetic treatment. BOTOX® Cosmetic has quickly become one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic enhancement procedures in the world. This quick, in-office treatment can give you a more youthful, refreshed appearance by smoothing out signs of wrinkles and fine lines in specific areas along the face. With personalized treatment plans from our skilled and experienced team at Studio G Aesthetics, our attention to detail helps to prevent “frozen” features. We pride ourselves on providing patients with natural-looking results that address their unique and individual concerns. COMMON QUESTIONS Although BOTOX® Cosmetic is an extremely popular treatment, there are a lot of questions that new patients have about the injections. Here are a few of the most frequently asked questions. If would like more information, please do not hesitate to contact us today. We are always happy to answer questions, and can help you schedule a consultation to discuss your options. WHAT DOES BOTOX® COSMETIC TREAT? Some of the most commonly treated areas are mild to moderate fine lines on the face, such as: · Crow’s feet · Forehead lines · Laugh lines · Frown lines · “Bunny” lines · Chin dimpling During your consultation, we will discuss your goals and help you determine if you are an eligible candidate for BOTOX® Cosmetic. HOW LONG DO RESULTS LAST? Results can vary from person to person, but on average BOTOX® Injections can provide facial rejuvenation results that last three to four months. After the effects begin to fade, follow-up treatment can maintain results. In fact, some patients have noticed results tend to last longer after each repeat visit. WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS? Optimal results from facial rejuvenation with BOTOX® Cosmetic should be seen within approximately seven days after treatment. WHAT IS THE TREATMENT LIKE? Treatment is typically fairly brief – approximately ten minutes, depending on the number of treatment areas. BOTOX® Cosmetic, which is a prescription medication (onabotulinumtoxinA) is carefully injected using a fine needle. According to your treatment plan, injections will be made in desired areas to temporarily prevent underlying facial muscles in the target areas from contracting (it is this muscle contraction that creates the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines). WILL THE INJECTIONS HURT? Our team always does their best to put your comfort first. The needle used for the injections is very fine, and we can use a topical numbing agent prior to the procedure to help minimize any pain at the injection sites. DO THE INJECTIONS CAUSE BRUISING? During the week before you have BOTOX® Injections, we recommend avoiding any blood thinners, such as aspirin,ibuprofen, as well as vitamin E supplements or fish oil. These medications can all lead to increased bruising and bleeding at the injection sites. HOW LONG IS THE RECOVERY PERIOD? There is usually no recovery period needed after BOTOX® Cosmetic injections. Most patients are able to return to their daily activities immediately after treatment has been completed. There can be redness, swelling or bruising on occasion, but these side effects are minimal and should fade quickly.

Ultherapy is the only non-invasive procedure FDA-cleared to lift skin on the neck, under the chin, on the eyebrow, and the decolette. Check out the best alternative to a face lift in Columbia, SC. Ultherapy ® Ultherapy® uses safe, time-tested ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin naturally—without surgery or downtime. What is Ultherapy®? Ultherapy® is the only non-invasive procedure FDA-cleared to lift skin on the neck, under the chin and on the eyebrow. Now also FDA-cleared to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the décolletage, Ultherapy® can help you achieve a fresher, more youthful look from your brow to your chest! Ultherapy® relies on ultrasound therapy to deliver its collagen-boosting treatment. It also incorporates traditional ultrasound imaging, which allows practitioners to see the layers of tissue they are treating, ensuring the treatment energy is delivered to where it will be most beneficial. The Ultherapy® procedure stimulates collagen production by delivering focused ultrasound energy to the skin’s foundational layer typically addressed in cosmetic surgery—without cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin. Unlike lasers, radio frequency, surgery and other technologies, non-surgical Ultherapy® bypasses the surface of the skin to deliver the right amount of ultrasound energy at the right depths and the right temperature. This energy triggers a natural response under the skin, jumpstarting the regenerative process that produces fresh, new collagen. Some patients see an initial effect right after their treatment, but the real results appear over 2−3 months as new collagen works to lift and tighten skin on the neck, chin and brow as well as smooth skin on the chest. While Ultherapy® won’t duplicate the results of a facelift, it’s a clinically proven non-invasive alternative for those not ready for surgery—and can even be an option for patients who wish to extend the effects of cosmetic surgery.

Non-surgical Hair Restoration Rediscover Your Confidence Tired of seeing thinning hair? At Studio G Aesthetics, we specialize in advanced, non-surgical hair restoration treatments, focusing on cutting-edge PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy to naturally and effectively combat hair loss. The Power of PRP Therapy Our signature approach utilizes Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), a groundbreaking therapy that harnesses the natural healing power found within your own body. PRP is derived from a small sample of your blood, processed to concentrate the platelets, and then carefully applied to the scalp. What PRP does: Revitalizes Hair Follicles: The concentrated growth factors in PRP stimulate dormant or weak hair follicles. Encourages New Growth: It supports the natural growth cycle, leading to the development of new, healthy hairs. Increases Hair Density: Over time, it helps strengthen the vitality of existing hair, resulting in thicker, denser hair. Your Personalized Treatment Journey Whether you are just starting to notice thinning or dealing with more significant hair loss, our skilled team is committed to creating a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals. We use cutting-edge techniques to ensure you achieve the most natural and enduring results. How Many Sessions Will I Need? The optimal number of PRP hair treatment sessions is highly individual and depends on factors like the severity of your hair loss and your body's response to the treatment. Standard Recommendation: Most clients are initially advised to undergo a series of 3 to 6 sessions, typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Customized Care: Following your initial series, your progress will be evaluated. Some individuals may benefit from fewer sessions, while others may require additional treatments or periodic maintenance sessions for the best long-term outcome. Consultation is Essential: To determine the best protocol for your unique situation—taking into account your hair loss history, health conditions, and desired results—a consultation with our qualified professional team is the vital first step.

Discover the benefits of our SkinPen® microneedling, a skin rejuvenation procedure designed to treat acne scars and aging skin. SkinPen ® Microneedling SkinPen ® Microneedling Collagen Inductio n Therapy SkinPen® was awarded “Top Rated Treatment for Acne Scars” and “Top Skin Care Device” in the Aesthetic Everything® 2019 Aesthetic and Cosmetic Medicine Awards. The World’s First FDA-Cleared Microneedling Device The SkinPen is clinically proven to improve the appearance of acne scars in as few as three minimally invasive treatments, 30 days apart. Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that helps minimize the signs of aging, improve the appearance of acne scars and rejuvenate aging skin. The SkinPen (microneedling device) works by creating thousands of micro-injuries to stimulate your body’s natural wound healing process, while minimizing cellular damage. The result is effective remodeling of acne scar tissue, while keeping the overall structure of the skin intact. The SkinPen can improve fine lines and wrinkles and help you achieve younger looking skin. The treatment has little downtime, is safe for all skin types, and is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device. A light numbing cream can be used to minimize discomfort. PRP To get even more out of your treatment, add a platelet-rich plasma treatment. PRP, or “Liquid Gold” as some refer to it, is a concentration of platelets, growth factors, and plasma processed from your own blood that stimulates cell growth and repair. After your blood is drawn and processed, it is used for treatment with the SkinPen. When used in combination with SkinPen, this procedure is often referred to as a Vampire Facial, which is the gold standard in the aesthetic industry for collagen and elastin production with healing properties.

Discover the dermal filler benefits with Belotero Balance at Studio G Aesthetics. Perfect for fine lines and wrinkles, explore results today. What is BELOTERO®? BELOTERO® is an injectable filler that is used to smooth moderate-to-severe etched-in lines and wrinkles on your face. Upon injection, it quickly and evenly integrates into your skin. What is the difference between BELOTERO® and other fillers? BELOTERO® is a hyaluronic acid injectable filler designed to integrate into facial skin tissue. The unique manufacturing process for BELOTERO® yields a soft and cohesive gel that, once injected, instantly fills the skin to help smooth moderate-to-severe etched-in lines and wrinkles. While the product is versatile enough to handle moderate nasolabial folds (smile lines around the mouth), it may be an ideal option for treating delicate areas such as etched-in smile lines and vertical lip lines (thin lines that appear above and around the lips). How soon can I expect results? How long will results last? Immediately upon treatment, BELOTERO® helps smooth etched-in lines and wrinkles, such as vertical lip lines above and around your lips. Individual results may vary, but BELOTERO® may last about 6 months or more. Some factors that affect how long it lasts are the amount of product used and the area it is injected into. In areas that experience a lot of movement due to eating, talking, and smiling, the product may not last as long as other less active areas. How is the treatment preformed? BELOTERO® is injected into the skin in a simple, quick treatment performed by a licensed healthcare provider using a fine-gauge needle. You can either sit or recline during treatment and the aftercare is minimal.

Discover the microblading healing process at Studio G Aesthetics. Achieve natural-looking brows with expert care and guidance. Microblading Wake up with full brows that look natural every day with Microblading! Microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing procedure that fills in sparse eyebrows with natural hair-like strokes. At Studio G Aesthetics, our micropigmentation artist, Emily Osborn, is trained in the latest Microblading and Permanent Makeup techniques and will guide you in the best treatment for brows that look beautiful and natural. Microblading – Frequently Asked Questions What is Microblading? Microblading is a form of semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing where pigment is implanted in the upper layers of the skin with a handheld microblade tool instead of a machine. This technique allows for natural hair-like strokes to be placed for partial or full enhancement of thinning brows. Are the results permanent? No, microblading is not permanent. The results are semi-permanent. Microblading pigment is not placed as deep in the skin as with permanent cosmetic procedures. How long does the procedure take? The initial visit is approximately 2 hours. During this time, Peyton will work with you to shape and style your brows to your preference. Once the ideal shape and style are created, she will present multiple pigment color options until one is found that best matches your existing hair color, skin tone and personal preference. At your initial visit, a follow up visit will be scheduled for 6 weeks and another application will be performed to ensure longevity of the pigment. Does Microblading hurt? We make every effort to ensure the procedure is as comfortable as possible. A strong topical anesthetic is used to initially numb the area and is reapplied as needed. Is there any downtime? There is no downtime, however, there are some restrictions on activity while the brows are healing. No swimming, sweating, tanning or prolonged sun exposure is recommended for the first two weeks. The brow area will be red, slightly swollen and sore to the touch initially and you will need to use a gentle cleanser and avoid any irritating products while healing. Your brow color will initially appear darker and you will have minor scabbing. It takes one to two weeks to heal overall and approximately four weeks for the color to completely settle in. How long do the results last? Individual results will vary; however, most people experience 12 – 15 months if proper aftercare is taken and the second application occurs within an appropriate time.

Smartlipo laser body contouring is a minimally invasive, laser-assisted lipolysis procedure that targets trouble spots lto permanently eliminate fat. Smartlipo ® ABOUT LIPOSUCTION Liposuction is a procedure that can sculpt the body by removing unwanted fat from specific areas, including the abdomen, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, upper arms, chin and neck. Localized deposits of fat are removed to re-contour one or more areas of the body. Through a tiny incision, a narrow tube or cannula is inserted to vacuum the fat layer that lies beneath the skin. The cannula is pushed and pulled through the fat layer, breaking up the fat cells and suctioning them out. The suction action is provided by a vacuum pump. This basic technique of liposuction is used in all patients. However, as liposuction has been developed and refined, variations have been introduced. Individuals considering liposuction may feel overwhelmed by the number of options and techniques being promoted. Dr. Griggs has been trained and certified in liposuction techniques, and is familiar with the many options available. He can help you decide which is the right approach for you, taking into account safety and appropriateness for your needs. Smartlipo® laser body contouring is a minimally invasive, laser-assisted lipolysis procedure that targets trouble spots like the abdomen, arms, buttocks, thighs, and neck, and permanently eliminates fat. So if your problem areas won’t respond to exercise and diet, Smartlipo® provides dramatic improvements with greater results, minimal downtime, and less pain than traditional liposuction. Smartlipo® uses local tumescent anesthesia to numb only a specific area of the body being treated so you’re awake during the procedure The Smartlipo® laser fiber is inserted through a very small tube into your body, the laser ruptures the fat cell membranes and the fat cells are permanently destroyed The liquefied fat is gently suctioned out. Because Smartlipo® actually tightens the skin through coagulation, you don’t have to worry about dimpling and sagging skin Three laser wavelengths provide targeted treatments to disrupt fat; coagulate blood vessels and stimulate collagen which helps to tighten skin and improve elasticity by 57% Are you ready? It’s time to reshape your body and reshape your life. Smartlipo® Treatment Areas: Arms and legs: No general anesthetic needed Minimal scarring Short downtime Slims the area Face and neck: Laser facial sculpting without the downtime or downsides of a facelift More permanency than injectibles Gently targets trouble spots where fat collects and skin becomes lax 2 days versus 5-7 days of recovery time Abdomen and buttocks: Less bleeding and bruising Minimal scarring Skin tightening through tissue coagulation Hi-def body sculpting capability Watch Video 1 DiBernardo BE, “Randomized, blinded split abdomen study evaluationg skin shrinkage and skin tightening in laser-assisted liposuction versus liposuction control” Aesthetic Surgery Journal October 2010; 30(4) 593-602.
