Components

The number of initial treatments needed to meet your desired results depends upon the state of your skin and the goals you want to reach. However, once those goals are achieved you should only need maintenance Halo treatments every 12 to18 months.

Yes! Anyone can benefit from the cutting-edge technology of the Ultra Glo treatment.

Most patients see maximum results after a series of 1 to 3 treatments, spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart. The medical professionals at Lemmon Avenue assess each patient’s unique needs and develop a personalized treatment plan based on the level of improvement desired.

Mild redness following your Ultra Glo treatment is completely normal, and you can resume normal daily activities immediately after the treatment. Full healing may take up to 5 to 7 days, and makeup can be applied sooner as directed by your laser specialist.

The immediate after-effects of a ProFractional treatment include redness and mild swelling. Total healing takes only 1 to 3 days, depending on the depth of your procedure.

Most patients see maximum results after a series of 1 to 4 treatments, spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart. The medical professionals at Lemmon Avenue assess each patient’s unique needs and develop a personalized treatment plan based on the level of improvement desired.

The laser energy of ProFractional creates thousands of microscopic channels in your skin, each surrounded by areas of untreated skin. Those zones invigorate the body’s natural healing processes, stimulating new collagen production in the treated areas.

After treatment with PiQo4, you may see a whitish “frosted” look over treatment areas where pigmentation was darkest. Otherwise, the skin will be slightly swollen and mildly red, though in only a few hours those side effects clear up.

Treating hyperpigmentation with the PiQo4 laser isn’t 100% painless, but we apply a topical numbing cream to eliminate any discomfort that may occur during treatment.

The number of sessions needed for effective hyperpigmentation treatment with the PiQo4 varies from patient to patient. We will determine the best approach to your needs during your consultation.

The length of your recovery after laser skin resurfacing varies based on the type and strength of the laser treatment used. We often utilize combination laser treatments for maximum improvements with minimal downtime.

In the right hands, yes, lasers are effective on nearly every skin type and tone. At Lemmon Ave, we stress the importance of only trusting experienced, highly trained professionals with any kind of laser-based skin treatment. These powerful tools can cause burns or other problems when not used properly.

Laser skin resurfacing works via precise pulses of light energy directed at dead and damaged layers of skin. The light energy converts to heat and, depending upon the specifics of the laser used, can either ablate thin layers of skin, create microdamage to encourage natural healing, or a combination of both.

The number of treatments needed for ideal results from Emsculpt varies from patient to patient. Typically we do 30 minute treatments with a minimum of 4 sessions scheduled 2 or 3 days apart.

The length of time it takes to recover from a Halo laser treatment varies from patient to patient because of the customizable nature of the treatment. Generally, patients see four to seven days of social downtime where skin will appear redder than normal, with improvements becoming more visible between five and seven days.

In non-ablative treatments, we heat a column of skin called a microthermal treatment zone. After, patients see small packets of “debris” rise to the surface as the regenerated tissues push damaged tissue up and out. Adding ablation removes some of the tissue that would otherwise necrose near the surface, eliminating the formation of those packets of debris. This allows the skin to heal more quickly.

Typically, the only laser treatment we avoid on skin of color is IPL (Intense Pulse Light) or other light-based treatments like Broad Band Light or photofacials. Ablative laser resurfacing is also commonly avoided at other practices that are not experienced in treating melanin-rich skin of color. Our highly-trained team at Lemmon Avenue, however, is intimately familiar with treating darker skin and the specific settings necessary to avoid hyperpigmentation & protect your natural glow.

Our laser technicians’ levels of education and skill allow them to safely provide hair removal, laser facials, treatment for spots and scars, as well as treatment for skin conditions specific to skin of color—which other med spas in Dallas simply can’t achieve!

Skin Type | Skin Color | Reaction to Sun
1 | Very White, Freckled or Ivory | Always Burns and Peels/Never Tans
2 | White, Fair Complexion | Usually Burns/Rarely Tans
3 | White to Olive | Sometimes Burns/Always Tans
4 | Olive or Light Brown | Rarely Burns/Always Tans
5 | Dark Brown | Very Rarely Burns/Moderately Pigmented
6 | Black | Highly Pigmented/Never Burns/Tans Quickly

BBL HERO is fitted with a chiller system and integrated sapphire chill plate to maintain a more comfortable temperature, allowing for treatment on a broader range of skin types. During your laser consultation, we will discuss the capabilities of BBL HERO and determine whether it’s the right choice for your skin tone and specific needs.

No, BBL HERO is not a laser. The main difference between BBL and lasers is BBL’s ability to penetrate a variety of skin depths. Laser configurations allow them to penetrate at a fixed depth only, though lasers penetrate much more deeply than BBL is capable of.

BBL HERO’s ability to be customized makes it a world-renowned treatment. With one handpiece we treat dozens of skin conditions by easily swapping between 9 available wavelength filters. Our laser technicians can even change the spot sizes of the handpiece to maximize your treatment time. BBL HERO is one of the most versatile light-based treatments available.

Many patients find satisfactory results after just 1 to 2 treatments with RF microneedling. We always do thorough consultations to develop personalized treatment plans that will effectively tackle your unique desires.

One of the best parts of RF microneedling is the fact it can be performed anywhere on the body except the eyelids. The skin tightening, rejuvenating effects are effective on the face, décolleté, lower abdomen, upper thigh/buttocks, above the knees, and anywhere else skin goes lax.

After your RF microneedling treatment, many patients experience mild swelling and bruising that does not last more than 1–2 weeks. Because this treatment doesn’t disrupt your skin’s barrier, there’s no “oozing” or peeling after. Skin keeps improving over the course of 3–9 months as renewed collagen production continues.

For most individuals struggling with stress urinary incontinence, symptoms can be completely cured or at the very least greatly reduced. At Lemmon Avenue, we take the time to discuss your health history to determine the best approach to your urinary incontinence treatment.

The number of Dysport injections you get will depend on the severity of your lines how many lines you have. Generally, for crow’s feet, we suggest 3 injections into the areas of the muscle that frame the side of each eye. For frown lines, you may receive up to 5 injections in the muscles between your brows and in your forehead. For forehead lines, you may receive up to 5 injections into the muscle.

No! Many women can be great candidates for vaginal rejuvenation treatments in Dallas, regardless of whether you’ve had children or not. Aging and other conditions can also impact intimate concerns like laxity, dryness, and pelvic floor weakness.

Most Emsella patients benefit from a series of 4 to 6 treatments. We will always create a custom treatment plan based on your unique needs and goals

From our injectables center, an experienced Lemmon Avenue provider will utilize a microneedling pen with PRF as a glide-on product to perform the procedure. After collecting a blood sample from patients and separating the growth factors using a centrifuge, we’ll use the pen to create micro-channels within the skin. With those micro-channels open, your provider will then infuse the PRF and other topicals to glide on the skin & press in the product.

Most patients can expect to see immediate results in the form of brighter, tighter skin within 24 hours! Within about 2 to 4 weeks, collagen production will reach its peak. Full results should last up to 6 months before additional maintenance treatments are required.

You can expect the skin to be redder in appearance (similar to a mild sunburn) for 1 to 2 days following the procedure. However, the downtime following PRF microneedling is minimal and most patients can resume normal activities soon after their treatment.

Yes, platelet-rich fibrin is safe@ It is a byproduct of your own blood, therefore your body won’t react poorly to it.

Depending on the severity of the cellulite, most patients need around 2 to 4 vials of Sculptra to begin seeing a reduction in cellulite. However, once we’ve injected it, it continues to improve results for up to 5 years!

Your body will naturally break down the filler over time. Depending on the type of filler we use, the results from your jawline contouring in Dallas may last for 12 to 15 months!

Nonsurgical jawline contouring uses injectables to contour the jawline by breaking down fat cells or adding filler into areas along the cheek, chin, and jawline.

Patients generally see results after Emsella treatment after six sessions, scheduled twice per week. Results vary from person to person based on different health factors and the severity of their urinary incontinence.

There is no ideal age for FemTouch vaginal rejuvenation! Practitioners treat women as young as their 20s and as old as their 80s without serious risk. Anyone who wants to enjoy a tighter feeling down there is potentially eligible for treatment!

The best thing about a WiQo peel is the immediate impact, but we do typically recommend a series of treatments for maximum results. We recommend WiQo peels be scheduled no fewer than seven days apart.

Laser tattoo removal is not pain-free, but neither is getting a tattoo! If you had no problems getting your tattoo in the first place, you should not have problems with the laser tattoo removal process. Especially because, while tattoos can take hours, your laser removal sessions only take minutes. We also offer topical and injectable numbing options for optimal patient comfort.

Yes! Lasers can completely remove your unwanted tattoo! The advanced technology utilized at Lemmon Ave allows for the most effective and complete tattoo removal possible. Each patient and tattoo is different, so we’ll determine the number of treatments necessary after your consultation.

Laser tattoo removal works by applying short laser pulses that, when absorbed by the target areas of skin, convert to acoustic waves that shatter the pigment granules within the skin. The PiQo4 laser uses high energy levels and a large spot size to eliminate unwanted tattoos with fewer treatments than competing systems.

BLEND X technology is a binary laser emission of the Nd: YAG (1064nm) and Alexandrite (755nm) wavelengths with synchronized and adjustable proportions. This allows for incredibly customizable treatments usable across a wide range of skin tones, unlike traditional laser hair removal.

Traditional modes of laser hair removal hurt similar to a large rubber band snapping against the skin. The technological advances of Splendor X have made the treatment much more comfortable.

Hair removal with Splendor X guarantees a permanent reduction in hair, but the nature of the human body means we cannot promise 100% permanent hair removal that never, ever grows back.

Trust us, we wouldn’t offer Emsculpt NEO if it wasn’t effective! HIFEM technology has undergone rigorous clinical testing for safety and efficacy through 7 clinical studies. So yes, Emsculpt NEO absolutely works!

There is NO downtime after an Emsculpt NEO treatment! This body contouring procedure is entirely non-invasive and you’ll be able to return to your normal routine immediately.

The cost of Emsculpt NEO won’t be determined until we can develop your custom treatment plan. Each patient needs a different number of sessions to achieve their goals, and the size and number of areas treated play a major role in the cost as well. Rather than throw out random numbers, we encourage those interested in Emsculpt NEO to visit us for a consultation.

You will feel results immediately after your treatment. The first visible results are typically reported 2 to 4 weeks after the final session and continue to improve for several weeks.

The Emsculpt treatment feels like an intensive, localized workout, though you’re able to lay down and relax throughout the session.

Most clients experience only very mild pain during the beginning and end of the treatment; this can include tingling, numbness, and sensitive skin. Treatments don’t require pain medication or additional recovery time.

Not if you don’t want to! Some patients come in asking for dramatic results, but most simply want to restore their facial balance to its more youthful contours. Our injectors are well-known for their ability to artfully apply dermal fillers to the mid-face region for subtle but effective rejuvenation.

Hyaluronic acid, or HA, is a compound naturally produced by the body. HA retains moisture and is responsible for the supple, glowing nature of young skin. Fillers made with HA have a smooth, gel-like texture and easily glide beneath the skin to create natural-looking improvements.

Our knowledgeable practitioners prefer Restylane and Juvederm to eradicate signs of aging beneath the eyes. Both of these dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid and include lidocaine to maximize patient comfort. All treatments at Lemmon Avenue are customized to each individual patient, so during your consultation we’ll determine the right formula for your needs.

Typically it only takes one treatment to achieve the results you desire. Not only do the PDO threads manually lift the skin into a higher place, but they also stimulate the production of collagen.

We use a specially designed, very thin needle to insert the threads that minimize patient discomfort, as well as a local anesthetic. Mild soreness and swelling are common for a few days after the procedure.

PDO thread lifts are loved because of their long-lasting results. Typically patients see improvements for 6 to 12 months or more.

Like any other aesthetic procedure, non-surgical rhinoplasty is safe and reliable when performed by appropriately trained and certified medical professionals, like those at Lemmon Ave!

Nose filler can last anywhere from 12 to 18 months. This time varies based on the amount and type of product used and your unique body chemistry.

Non-surgical nose jobs work by temporarily altering the shape of your nose with filler. We can smooth out unwanted bumps and curves for a more balanced appearance.

If you opt for a numbing cream during treatment, make sure to wait until it wears off before eating. Also, avoid messy or chewy foods for the first day so you don’t irritate the injection sites by wiping your lips.

Make sure to avoid strenuous exercise on the first day since it can exacerbate swelling and bruising. Additionally, avoid taking blood thinners since these can also impact your results. We also recommend that you avoid dental visits 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after your filler appointment.

Although you’ll see immediate results with your lip filler treatment, it can take up to 4 weeks for the product to settle in and achieve its final look. If you want to touch up your results, it’s best to wait until the product has fully settled.

Hip dips, an indent between the hip bone and upper thigh, are nearly impossible to fix on your own. Sculptra has a proven ability to fill in the indentations and give that hourglass shape we all covet.

Yes! Kybella is safe, tested, and poses no threats to your health. It has been FDA-approved to treat excess submental fat.

Fillers cannot make your nose smaller, but they can improve the shape of a nose and they can add volume to other parts of the face to balance the features and create the look of a smaller nose.

The results of your facial balancing injections tend to last anywhere from 12 to 15 months.

Facial balancing with fillers refers to the application of dermal filler to various parts of the face to achieve a balanced and proportional facial appearance.

We don’t think of plastic surgery or noninvasive aesthetic treatment as competitors, so one is not better than another. Both provide incredible results that help our patients achieve their goals, and each have their benefits and drawbacks. Not everyone can undergo surgery for a variety of reasons. Some patients don’t have time for long recovery times and want fast results. In truth, a lot of patients find that a mixture of cosmetic surgery and noninvasive aesthetic treatments meet their goals better than either alone.

Yes! You should not have anything done by a facility that is not directed by a plastic surgeon who is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. The only board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties and the American Medical Association for the certification of plastic surgeons is the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Physicians certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery…

• have specialized residency training
• have successfully completed rigorous oral and written examinations in plastic surgery
• are held to high ethical standards
• are required to pursue continuing education to maintain and develop their skills

You can contact the state medical board, the American Board of Plastic Surgery, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, or the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery to double check a surgeon’s credentials. Don’t be fooled, a “cosmetic surgeon” may not be a plastic surgeon!

No, aesthetic treatments are not only for women! More and more men are embracing the benefits of caring for their skin and appearance.

The difference between Xeomin, Dysport, and Botox is in the formulas of each injectable. While all feature Botulinum toxin type A as the active ingredient, their molecular makeup differs. These differences make each formula excel in different areas, all of which we discuss during your consultation.

How long Botox lasts varies based on how much product we use and your body, but typical results last about 4 months.

Botox injections block certain chemical signals from nerves, mostly signals that cause muscles to contract. By limiting muscle movements, the injections stop the skin from creasing.

Skin ages due to a combination of factors, both intrinsic and external. Over time, cells don’t function as efficiently which leads to slower production of things like collagen and elastin, proteins that keep skin plump and elastic. Damage from the sun compounds the effects of natural aging, as do habits like eating a poor diet and smoking.

PRF is the second generation of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and is made from your own blood and a protein matrix called fibrin.

A WiQo peel is an advanced chemical peel that combines a unique serum and a patented application technique that reaches the sub-dermal layers to revitalize skin from the inside out.

Results typically last anywhere from 3 to 6 months, depending on how well you care for your skin after treatment.

Nearly everyone is a candidate for HydraFacials in Dallas! Even the most sensitive skin tolerates the gentle cleansing and exfoliation offered by this customizable facial. Like any other treatment at Lemmon Avenue, your provider takes your specific skin concerns and customizes the treatment to meet your needs.

Nearly every patient sees a visible refinement to their skin in addition to a radiant glow after just ONE HydraFacial! Your skin’s invigorated appearance usually lasts at least a week. To stack those benefits and see improvement in fine lines wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation, we recommend monthly maintenance treatments.

The HydraFacial is a fast, efficient treatment that takes as little as 30 minutes. There’s no downtime, so you can put on makeup (but you probably won’t want to!) and return to your normal activities right after the treatment.

No, Radiesse is not permanent, although treatment results are relatively long-lasting. Over time, the tiny calcium-based microspheres gradually break down into basic calcium and phosphate ions, which are safely and naturally absorbed into the body, leaving your own collagen in its place.

Radiesse is made from tiny, calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. The calcium microspheres are similar to minerals found in the body, so allergy testing is not required.

Most patients achieve their desired result after just one appointment! Typically, we recommend a follow-up appointment after a couple of weeks to check in on your happiness with your progress.

EZ PRF is the latest and greatest advancement in blood concentrate science. After drawing your blood, to obtain EZ PRF we use low-speed centrifugation that captures more of the platelets within the fibrin scaffold. EZ PRF also includes leukocytes and mesenchymal stem cells. Together, this creates more growth factors and allows the PRF to work effectively for longer.

Both PRP and PRF are made by spinning your own blood in a centrifuge. We spin PRF at a slower rate, which leaves white cells, stem cells, and platelets in the top layers of the post-centrifuge tube and the red cells stay at the bottom of the tube. By contrast, PRP contains only platelets and serum.

The only side effects that may occur are mild pain, swelling, soreness, and minor bruising in the injection areas.

What makes Lemmon Avenue more than a med spa is our level of expertise and the full suite of cosmetic options available at our medical aesthetics facility. From injections to lasers to plastic surgery, we provide unmatched care and results. Our medical director is a board-certified plastic surgeon, meaning he has specific medical training related to aesthetics, not some unrelated field of medicine.

Typically, our clients begin to see results from Sculptra for cellulite within 6 weeks. The solution continues to improve your concerns for up to 5 years!

Visible results typically appear within 6 weeks of your cellulite treatment in Dallas. The increase in collagen production means those results continue to improve over time!

Sculptra works as a cellulite treatment in Dallas by encouraging your body to produce more collagen! The revolutionary injectable is known as a biostimulator. After we inject it into the problem areas, the solution stimulates collagen growth, which smooths and fills cellulite dimples!

The side effects associated with chin filler are mild and generally alleviate within a week or two. They include bruising, swelling, and itching at the injection site.

The cost of chin filler in Dallas varies based on several factors. Those include the product used and how much is used. When you visit with us for a consultation, we’ll make sure you know how much your chin filler treatment will cost and put you in the driver’s seat of your medical aesthetic plan.

The results of chin filler typically last anywhere from 6 to 12 months, which varies based on the amount and type of product used. Your unique body chemistry also impacts the longevity of filler.

While patients return to their normal day after a temple filler treatment, we do recommend avoiding intense exercise and sleeping on your temples for at least 2 days. You also want to avoid touching your temples until any pain, swelling, or discomfort has passed.

Side effects from temple filler are mild and typically go away within a week or two. Those side effects could include swelling, redness, bruising, and itching at the injection site.

Yes, temple filler is just as safe as other dermal fillers!

For a Sculptra butt lift specifically, most patients reach optimal results after only 2 to 3 sessions. As with any treatment performed at Lemmon Ave, your provider will work with you to determine a customized treatment plan suited to your needs.

Because Sculptra does not remain under your skin the way hyaluronic acid-based fillers do, results from your injections won’t be immediate. Fluid retention tends to cause an increase in volume that dissipates in a couple of days, but it takes a few weeks to a few months for collagen production to produce a visible result.
