Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Annie Chiu,
Sourced directly from Dr. Annie Chiu,'s social posts and replies.
How does Dr. Chiu approach lip filler?
Dr. Chiu focuses on enhancing your natural lip shape, adding soft volume, and balancing your facial features. Her goal is undetectable, effortless beauty, avoiding overfilling and trendy looks.
What kind of peels does Dr. Chiu recommend before vacation?
Dr. Chiu recommends lighter, physician-grade peels before a trip. These peels have minimal downtime and result in smoother, brighter skin. She advises saving intensive treatments for when you're back from vacation and indoors, as deep peels can make your skin more sensitive to the sun.
How do Botox and Sculptra work together?
Dr. Chiu considers Botox and Sculptra teammates, not competitors. Botox relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles, softening expression lines, while Sculptra stimulates your own collagen production, restoring lost volume and improving skin quality over time. Together, they create natural, long-lasting rejuvenation.
How does Dr. Chiu achieve natural-looking results?
Dr. Chiu believes natural results come from layered treatments done over multiple sessions. A 'natural' result is a blend of injectables, laser sessions, collagen stimulation, and customized skincare. Achieving a natural result is a process, not a single appointment.
How does Dr. Chiu address drooping mouth corners?
Dr. Chiu uses Botox to relax the downward pull of the muscles around the mouth and biostimulatory support to restore structure for a subtle lift. Facial balancing is about balance, not overfilling.
