Every time I visit Meridiem DermSpa, I get a lot of questions about what services I get, so I thought it would be helpful to compile all of your questions and answer them below.
If you are local to Knoxville, be sure to mention my name for 10% off your services at Meridiem!
Q: What is your favorite facial?
I really love the Hydrafacial and the Intense Pulce Light (IPL) facial. I love them both for different reasons. The hydrafacial is for just about anyone and any skin type. It is AMAZING.
The quick and easy process of a Hydrafacial includes:
CLEANSE & PEEL – Uncover a new layer of skin through gentle exfoliation and relaxing resurfacing.
EXTRACT & HYDRATE – Remove debris from pores with painless suction. Nourish with intense super serums that nourish and quench the skin.
FUSE & PROTECT – Saturate the skin’s surface with antioxidants and peptides to maximize your glow.
Their Hydrafacial is $199 per treatment, but you can get 10% off if you mention my name!
As far as the IPL, you can find more HERE, but I am doing this facial to assist with my darker, unwanted pigmentation.
Q: What is the downtime for IPL? Does it hurt?
A: Little to no downtime. It definitely is a little spicy, but it’s SUPER quick!
Q: How much does IPL cost?
A: It is $250 a treatment, but you can get 10% off if you mention my name!
Q: Do you prefer Botox or Dysport?
A: I got Botox this time, but I honestly think I prefer Dysport! It doesn’t take quite as long to show results and is usually a little less expensive because it’s newer.
Q: Is Botox breastfeeding / pregnancy safe?
A: I did not get Botox while I was pregnant or breastfeeding. I personally think it’s best to err on the side of caution and delay your Botox until you’re finished breastfeeding. I would suggest discussing with your doctor before making the final call.
Q: How long does Botox last?
A: I usually go for a touch up every 3 months.
Q: How many Botox/Dysport unitsdo you get and where?
A: I usually get:
Forehead – 10 units
Frown lines – 12 units
Bunny lines – 4
Crows feet – 8
Q: Do you have any filler under your eyes?
A: No — I do not!
Q: Do you get lip filler?
A: Yes I have in the past!! I did a little less than 1 syringe. I love it, but it huurrttsss!
XOXO,
