There are patterns that make this a poor operation for a given person and a surgeon should name them rather than schedule around them. Active smoking is the clearest: nicotine constricts the small vessels supplying an elevated skin flap and the risk of tissue loss climbs steeply, so this practice requires a genuine cessation window and will not operate inside it. Uncontrolled hypertension raises haematoma risk enough to matter. Someone whose main concern is skin texture and fine lines rather than descent will get a technically good lift and see almost none of the change they wanted, because those are different problems with different answers. Significant weight change planned in the next year will move the result. And there is a category harder to name kindly: a person under acute pressure from a divorce, a bereavement, a job loss, for whom the timing is doing more of the work than the anatomy. None of these are permanent refusals. Most of them are a conversation about sequence rather than a no, and roughly one in four surgical consults here ends in not now rather than a date.

This is the question Sloane Holloway, RN, BSN, is asked more than any other, and the answer is less satisfying than the internet suggests. Hyaluronic acid filler is not finished the day it goes in. Swelling resolves over about two weeks, the product integrates over four to six, and where it sits in a mobile part of the face it will keep adjusting after that. If something looks uneven at day three, day three is not the result. And if it still looks uneven at week six, that is a conversation, not a catastrophe, because it can be dissolved.

It is a fair question and it is asked less often than it should be. Every injectable appointment in this practice is performed by Sloane Holloway, RN, BSN, who has been in this suite since 2019 and treats under the medical direction of board-certified Dr. Elise Rowan. There is no rotating roster and no one else injects here. We would say the same to anyone considering treatment anywhere: ask who, ask how long they have been there, and ask what happens if something needs to be corrected.

Educational, and it is the most common question we get by a wide margin. Appetite signalling generally returns to where it was, because the medication was doing a job rather than teaching the body a new setting. What changes the second half of that story is whether nutrition, resistance work, and a maintenance plan were built while the medication was still on board. Dr. Halvorsen explains both halves honestly.

Tox is $12 a unit, a first forehead is usually 18 to 24 units, filler is $650 a syringe. That is the entire list and it does not change if you come in wearing something nice. Ask me anything else in the comments.

Doses vary. Prices do not. The per-unit number does not move, and anyone who will not tell you theirs is protecting a quote they want to give you in person.
