If you see a sale for botox that looks too good to be true, it probably is.
It probably comes as no surprise to anyone who has had any cosmetic procedures done that they cost more than your average, over-the-counter, anti-wrinkle cream. However, you are actually paying for several incredibly valuable things when you visit a cosmetic dermatologist for injections that, in our humble opinion, are essential to getting the best results and the best return on your investment.
What is the advantage of getting botox at a place like Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology?
First and foremost, our doctor and her education. You would never dream of taking your child anywhere but their pediatrician for vaccinations, or trust anyone besides an ophthalmologist for your LASIK procedure, so why would you trust anyone but a cosmetic dermatologist for botox? Anyone other than a licensed medical provider is not qualified or legally permitted to inject botox into a patient. It takes a thorough knowledge of how the body handles botox, how many units are necessary for each individual patient, where the injections should be placed, the proper mixture of the medication, a thorough understanding of any other pertinent medical conditions the patient may have, and so much more. And in the very unlikely event your body's response to the injections is less than ideal, you're in the presence of a trusted physician that can safely negate any reaction to the product.
Which leads to the other key driver behind why you should visit a cosmetic dermatologist for botox—the product. We purchase our medications from pharmaceutical companies providing best-in-class products for the central nervous system and medical aesthetics and dermatology categories. In short, we know the medication we are using is completely safe, and our manufacturers stand behind us and work with us to ensure that every patient is happy with their results. It is the reason our practice has remained in the top 4% of botox providers with Allergan (the maker of Botox®) and one of the top injectors in Palm Beach County.
"Any discount botox injector that performs a fly-by-night
treatment and then disappears is a risky gamble, and gives the real
botox a bad name." -Dr. Supriya Tomar
Why should you avoid discount botox?
Steep discounts on botox mean you are getting a heavily diluted product at best, and a potentially fake or unknown product at worst. "You can't get botox for $99 anywhere. The product costs more than that for us to purchase, so if someone is able to turn a profit on that cost there is an extremely low amount of actual botox in the injection, if any." says Dr. Tomar of the online deals that pop up now and then. "Specials like that don't come with the same guarantee, safety, and medical care that I provide for my patients. We follow-up with our patients to make sure they got the results they wanted, and we provide touch-ups and ongoing care for patients who need it. Any discount botox injector that performs a fly-by-night treatment and then disappears without follow-up is a risky gamble, and gives the real botox a bad name." There are frequent so-called "warning tales" about the dangers of botox moving to other areas in the body, but they are either myths or stories that started due to an illegitimate injector's unsafe practices. This is never the case when dealing with a licensed practitioner with a thorough knowledge of cosmetic injectables and the proper, safe dilution levels.
What discounts can I trust?
Our patient base for botox is expanding daily, and we credit our focus on safe and competent medical practices for this expansion and increasing demand. While we may not offer discounts on botox frequently, we do offer specials to both new and existing patients as rewards. Patients can rest assured that specials they get through our rewards come with the highest possible quality of care. Please inquire with our office about new Botox patient specials and our referral rewards.
