What are injectables and how do they work?

Botox is an injectable derived from purified protein, which effectively treats crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, and neck folds.

How is the recovery phase from cosmetic surgery?

You may experience some amount of pain after cosmetic surgery. Therefore, your surgeon will prescribe pain medication to help minimise any discomfort.

What are the risks involved with cosmetic surgery?

Similar to other surgeries, complications do occur in cosmetic procedures but are rare.
