Frequently Asked Questions

Most medical spas and skin care clinics carry one or more specialized product lines. What’s wrong with buying a moisturizer from your local drugstore or similar? Many commercial products sold at these stores are not held to the same quality and testing standards and often lack the properties of medical grade products. At Luminosity Studios we carry SkinCeuticals and Vivier product lines. These are medical and pharmaceutical grade products backed by extensive research and testing. They have the greatest purity of ingredients and are upheld to stringent safety and testing standards. Adopting a skin care routine with quality products is imperative to maintaining your skin health. It’s like brushing your teeth. Would you only get your teeth cleaned at the dentist but not brush at home?

When many of us hear “Botox” we think of botched jobs gone wrong. Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily freezes muscles and is metabolized by the body. The most important thing about Botox is the injector. Make sure you see an experienced, trained injector in a professional setting. At Luminosity Studios our injectors are highly advanced and experienced.

Did you know that Botox can be used for cosmetic treatments (reducing wrinkles and fine lines) as well as therapeutic treatments? Botox has proven to be successful in alleviating migraines, reducing excessive sweating and providing jaw pain relief from TMJ dysfunction.

They can be, but they don’t have to be. A good Nurse Injector will work within your budget and prioritize the course of treatment that makes sense for what you’re looking to achieve. At Luminosity Studios, our Injectors first do a consultation with our clients to understand their goals and budget. Based on that they provide options and work with each client to determine the best course of treatment. Cosmetic procedures are great in that they can build on one another. You don’t need to do everything all at once! Also keep in mind that many of these treatments last 3 months to one year. So, although they may seem expensive, if you think about the longevity, it costs less than vitamins!

Usually, vitamin supplements are taken orally and go through the digestive system, which may cause gastrointestinal intolerance and often are poorly absorbed. With IV drips, the body receives the vitamins and minerals by injecting the solution directly into the bloodstream; a process that bypasses the digestive system and allows clients to feel the positive effects instantly.

IV drips remain in the system for up to 30 days and are recommended every 4 weeks.
