# Aesthetic and anti-aging medicine

## At a glance

- **Anaesthesia** : Anaesthetic cream if prescribed

- **Procedure** : 15 to 45 min

- **Stay** : At the office

The goal is to slow down the effects of time on your face or to make you look better. For this, it is important to analyze the structure of your face and your aging mechanisms: everyone ages differently. We also discuss your expectations and the naturalness of the desired result.

The **first consultation** is dedicated to the assessment: we focus on your morphology and your wishes, we take photographs, we establish a treatment plan, create a 3D simulation and establish an estimate.  
Then you make an appointment for the injection sessions.

## Tools

Botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid are our best weapons to sculpt a face, beautify it and restore its youth. These are absorbable products, the effects of which are known and controlled, and the complications are rare. I use Allergan products, from the Juvéderm and Vistabel brand: [https://www.juvederm.fr/](https://www.juvederm.fr/) , and Galderma : [https://www.galderma.com/azzalure](https://www.galderma.com/azzalure)  
When it is necessary to act on the quality of the skin, I can refer you to dermatologist correspondents for additional treatment by peeling, laser, radiofrequency …

## The injection session

Plan to apply the anaesthetic cream if it has been prescribed for you, 1 hour before the appointment, and repeat the application in the waiting room.  
In the office, in a peaceful atmosphere, with or without music according to your wishes, the session lasts between 15 and 45 minutes.  
Then rest! Do not plan any sporting activity for the next 24 hours. You can apply cold patches (also called "cold pack") that can be found in pharmacies as soon as you leave the consultation.

## Touch-ups

It is quite common after a first session of injections to carry out a touch-up to optimize the result. We plan an appointment in the following fifteen days for this purpose. This is part of your care and, with some exceptions, you will not be billed.

## A natural result

The techniques and products I use aim to obtain the most natural result possible, in the spirit of the "French Touch", the French school of cosmetic surgery. I adapt of course to your expectations, and I will be able to advise you when we reach the limits of aesthetic medicine and you have to consider surgery. All the advantage of having already your appointed surgeon!

## My advice

-   ### Hydrate yourself and your skin
    
    Drink enough water and unsweetened drinks regularly. Apply a moisturizer to the skin once or twice a day after cleansing.
    
-   ### Protect yourself from the sun
    
    Avoid prolonged direct exposure, cover up and regularly apply total sunscreen protection (UVA / UVB) factor 50 to exposed areas.
    
-   ### You should not smoke
    
    or you should stop smoking as soon as possible. If needed, ask for help to your doctor or a tobacco addiction specialist, there are many methods available to help you in this difficult process.
