+ What is down time?

Down time is the expected period of time that it maybe socially uncomfortable for you engage in activities like work, shopping or social events due to the healing process following facial injections or skin treatments. The expected down time for specific treatments or procedures varies and will be discussed at your consultation. It is advised you complete your treatment two weeks before any major professional or social event. Brides are encouraged to complete their treatment at least four weeks before their wedding. The most common cause of social down time is swelling and bruising. Highly-concentrated chemical peels involve complete and total peeling of the skin in the area treated.

+ Why do I need to prepare my skin before a peel?

The peels offered by Dandelion Medical Aesthetics are medical treatments and utilize highly concentrated ingredients to achieve the best results possible. Lira Clinical is designed to prepare the skin through proper cleansing, exfoliation, treatment and hydration to allow the peels to work at an optimal level and deliver the results you’re looking for. Without the properly preparing the skin for 2-4 weeks before the desired peel, you are likely to have poor results. Dandelion Medical Aesthetics offers packages to allow for the appropriate products to be used prior to your peel at the most affordable price available.

+ Can you bill my insurance?

No. Insurance companies do not pay for elective cosmetic treatments. Dandelion Medical Aesthetics will not bill your insurance company directly. Often times you may find our fees for diagnosis and treatment of medical problems to be comparable or better than your insurance’s defined co-pay for specialist treatment.

+ What is a nurse practitioner?

A nurse practitioner is a medical provider that is able to evaluate, diagnose and treat medical conditions much like a physician. They can order lab tests, write prescriptions and evaluate detailed information to make medical treatment decisions for patients. Most often, a nurse practitioner will have worked as a nurse for many years and acquires additional education, certifications and experience in order to practice as a nurse practitioner. Many years of research have found that nurse practitioners offer an equivalent level of care to that of physicians. Nurse practitioners can specialize in different areas of health care through experience and on-going education. According to the annual Gallop Poll, nurses have been named “The Most Trusted Profession” in the United States for the last 18 years.

As medical professionals, nurse practitioners are educated in the anatomy and physiology of the face and skin. This allows them to be better equipped to safely treat cosmetic concerns delivering results superior to those without medical/nursing education and experience.

All cosmetic treatments at Dandelion Medical Aesthetics are considered medical procedures. Dandelion Medical Aesthetics’ Nurse Practitioner has the medical expertise to limit the risks of any procedure as well as address any complications in the extremely rare case that they occur.
