At Luum aesthetics we pride ourselves on delivering natural looking results. Some clients prefer no movement, and we totally understand this. We also understand that most clients want to look fresh faced without looking ‘overdone.’ We generally like to treat conservatively for the first time, until we are able to fine tune and tweak dosing to achieve a perfect balance of natural results with great longevity. After your first treatment, we always encourage a 2 week follow up appointment so we can check your results and perfect or tweak them if needed.
