PRE CARE INSTRUCTIONS

  • If approved by your primary care provider, avoid blood thinners for one week before your injection. This includes Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Aleve, Motrin, Vitamin E, Fish Oil, Garlic, Ginseng, St. John’s Wort, Ginkgo Biloba, and Primrose Oil.
  • Refrain from alcohol for 1–2 days before treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.
  • Bruising is always a possibility. Taking Arnica beforehand is optional and may help minimize bruising.
  • Arrive with a clean, makeup-free face if possible.
  • Neurotoxin treatments will not be administered if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Avoid Botox/Dysport if you have a neuromuscular disorder.
  • Botox/Dysport is a medication:
  • More units = stronger effect & less movement once fully active.
  • Fewer units = more movement once fully active.
  • More units = longer-lasting results.

POST CARE INSTRUCTIONS

  • Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours.
  • Preferably, do not apply makeup for at least 4 hours after treatment, waiting 24 hours is ideal.
  • Remain upright for at least 4 hours post-treatment.
  • Avoid massaging or putting pressure on the treated area for 24 hours. If your forehead was treated, avoid wearing a tight hat.
  • Be patient—full results develop over two weeks. Additional Botox/Dysport will not be administered within this time.
  • Schedule a follow-up after two weeks if you need adjustments.
  • Results typically last 3–4 months, but some movement may return between 6–10 weeks.
  • If bruising occurs, continue avoiding alcohol for 1–2 days as it may worsen the bruising.
  • Some patients find that taking Arnica after treatment helps speed up bruise healing.

Call the office at 801.557.5200 immediately if the treatment areas become red or hot to the touch in the days following treatment.

This is my all time favorite place for aesthetic improvement. The atmosphere is friendly and intimate. People talk you through it the processes in detail. And they know exactly what you need and where, but they never pressure you or try to talk to you in to something. I never have bruises or problems after. They will check on you to make sure. I am 70 years old and they have a way of putting a little something here and there to really make me look a lot younger. Also, which I feel is more important, is that my skin is softer and even in tone, my forehead is smooth , and my look is more refined. Nuance Aesthetics is my favorite place. You can get an appointment rather quickly. Trust me , Wendy

I absolutely love going to Nuance Aesthetics and seeing Gohar, who performs all of my treatments. I truly can’t say enough—my expectations are not only met but exceeded with every single appointment. I’ve been going to Nuance for a little over two years now, and I have never been more satisfied with my results. Before finding Nuance, I had shopped around and honestly started to lose hope after several disappointing experiences. I was referred by my mother, and it completely changed everything for me. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance and environment are above par—welcoming, clean, and calming. Every treatment is thoroughly explained, and everything is done with such care and precision. Nuance has been more than just an aesthetics provider for me—it has been part of my personal journey. During a very difficult time in my life when I was diagnosed with cancer, they helped restore my confidence and made me feel beautiful both inside and out when I needed it most. I am now cancer-free, and continuing my journey with them has been incredibly rewarding. The results have been absolutely spectacular. Gohar is exceptionally gifted, especially when it comes to lips and chin enhancement—areas I always felt I lacked confidence in. Her work is natural, balanced, and truly enhances your features. I highly recommend Nuance Aesthetics and Gohar to anyone considering Botox, filler, or any aesthetic treatment. Additionally, all of the staff and Dr. Rhudy are amazing and have expertise medical experience and truly want to get to know you beyond just what they treat on the surface-that is what makes the experience exceptionally special. I am already looking forward to trying microneedling and laser treatments in the future!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful feedback and recommendation. We're glad to hear you have had a positive experience. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we look forward to continuing to support your journey. Nuance Aesthetics

I have gone to Holly for years and love her. She is the only person I trust to help me with my Botox and hormone wellness. She is the best and such a good price. I have tried other places and they don’t compare to her.

These ladies are amazing, and dr. Rudy is so sweet...I have had lip filler and lip flips done at other places that left me lumpy, bruised and boy was it painful. Gohar recently did a full syringe and I basically didn't feel it, lips are perfect. Katie is a amazing injector too, she has done excellent work freezing nostrils and fixing wrinkle lines.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the positive feedback! We appreciate your kind words about the team and their work. Nuance Aesthetics
