Frequently Asked Questions

1. What makes Glowtox Aesthetics different from other med spas in San Diego?

At Glowtox Aesthetics, we combine medical expertise with an artistic approach to create natural, balanced results. Our Pacific Beach team focuses on subtle enhancements that boost confidence while maintaining your authentic beauty.

2. How long does Botox last?

Botox typically lasts three to four months, depending on your metabolism and treatment area. With consistent visits, results may last longer over time.

3. Are dermal fillers safe?

Yes. We use FDA-approved fillers such as Juvéderm®, Restylane®, and Sculptra®. Treatments are performed by trained medical professionals in a sterile, comfortable environment.

4. What’s the difference between Botox and filler?

Botox relaxes facial muscles to smooth expression lines (like forehead or crow’s feet), while fillers restore lost volume and contour areas like the cheeks, lips, or jawline. Many clients choose to combine both for balanced results.

5. How long do lip fillers last?

Lip fillers generally last six to twelve months, depending on the product and your body’s natural metabolism. Results are immediate and can be customized for subtle or fuller enhancements.

6. What is Sculptra and how is it different from other fillers?

Sculptra® is a collagen-stimulating injectable that restores volume gradually by helping your body rebuild its own collagen. It’s ideal for clients who have experienced facial thinning from weight loss or aging, including those taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic®.

7. Does the treatment hurt?

Most clients describe the sensation as mild. We use topical numbing and advanced techniques to ensure comfort throughout your treatment.

8. What’s the downtime after injectables?

Downtime is minimal — most clients return to normal activities right away. Some mild swelling or redness may occur for 24–48 hours, depending on the treatment.

9. When will I see results?

You’ll see results from fillers immediately, while Botox and Sculptra develop over the following days or weeks. Full results are typically visible within 1–3 weeks.

10. How do I know which treatment is right for me?

During your consultation, our providers will evaluate your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals to create a personalized plan. We’ll discuss the best combination of Botox, fillers, or collagen stimulators to achieve your desired look.

11. How often should I come in for maintenance?

Most clients schedule Botox every 3–4 months and filler touch-ups every 6–12 months. We’ll tailor your treatment plan to help maintain consistent, natural results.

12. How do I book an appointment?
