FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

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.
