WHY I INJECT:
We as injectors know that Neurotoxin injections are relatively quick and painless, as are many filler procedures. When a new patient is in our chair and has never undergone any of these procedures, the unknown can be anxiety provoking and the psychological aspect of not knowing what to expect is definitely a factor here.
If you’ve ever been in an exam room with me, you’ll know that I explain every little detail of what I’m doing in order to put someone’s mind at ease. I have full transparency with what I’m doing, why I’m doing it, and I implement many things to make the experience as amazing as possible.
There are several tools in my armamentarium that I utilize to make injectables less painful — whether it be a vibrating device to distract from the needle, or deep breathing techniques to help relax the mind, or even using Pro-Nox to provide relief from anxiety and pain.
My goal is to always make my patients feel completely at ease and to give them the best possible outcomes always.
