FAQ
Answers to the questions I hear most — filter by topic or browse them all.
Do I need a consultation before booking a treatment?
+Yes — every new patient starts with a consultation so we can review your health history, discuss your goals, and make sure any treatment is safe and appropriate for you.
Where do treatments take place?
+As a Skin Clique concierge provider, I come to you — treatments are typically done in a comfortable, private setting of your choosing rather than a traditional clinic.
How do I book an appointment?
+You can book directly through my Skin Clique provider page, or text 617-634-5416 (text only) to get started.
What areas do you serve?
+I'm based in South Easton, MA and serve surrounding communities as a concierge provider.
How long does Xeomin last?
+Results typically last 3–4 months, though this varies by individual metabolism and muscle activity.
Is Xeomin the same as Botox?
+Xeomin and Botox are both neuromodulators from the same drug class, but Xeomin does not contain accessory proteins, which some patients prefer.
When will I see results?
+Most patients see initial results within 5–7 days, with full effect by day 14.
Does Xeomin hurt?
+Discomfort is minimal — most patients describe it as a quick pinch, and the injections themselves take only a few minutes.
How many peels will I need?
+This depends on your skin goals — some concerns respond to a single peel, while others benefit from a series spaced several weeks apart.
Will my skin actually peel?
+Depending on the depth of the peel, you may see visible flaking for a few days — this is a normal part of the resurfacing process.
Can I wear makeup after a peel?
+It's best to let your skin settle for at least 24 hours, and specific guidance will be part of your aftercare instructions.
How is prescription skincare different from what I can buy in stores?
+Prescription-strength formulations use higher concentrations of active ingredients than what's legally available over the counter, which often means faster, more predictable results.
How long until I see results?
+Most patients begin noticing changes within 6–12 weeks of consistent use, though this varies by concern and formulation.
Can I use Rx skincare alongside other treatments?
+Yes — Rx skincare is often used to maintain and extend the results of in-office treatments like peels and neuromodulators.
Am I a candidate for GLP-1 weight management?
+Candidacy is determined during a full clinical consultation that reviews your health history, current medications, and goals.
How often are follow-up visits?
+Follow-up frequency depends on your individual titration schedule, but regular monitoring is a required part of the program.
What side effects should I expect?
+Common side effects can include mild nausea or GI upset, especially during dose increases — these are discussed in detail during your consultation and monitored throughout treatment.
Is this covered by insurance?
+Coverage varies widely by plan — this is best discussed during your consultation so we can review your specific options.
What causes hair thinning?
+Causes range from genetics (androgenetic hair loss) to stress, postpartum hormonal shifts, and nutritional factors — your consultation will help identify the likely cause for you.
How long before I see regrowth?
+Hair growth is a slow process — most patients see visible improvement over 3–6 months of consistent treatment.
Does hair loss treatment work for women too?
+Yes — hair thinning affects people of all genders, and treatment plans are tailored to the individual.
What are your credentials?
+I hold a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and am dual board certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) and Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (AG-ACNP-BC), trained at the University of Pennsylvania.
Do you sell skincare products directly?
+Yes — medical-grade skincare is available to order through my Skin Clique storefront, linked throughout this site.
