Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Peter Petropoulos

Sourced directly from Dr. Peter Petropoulos's social posts and replies.

Are there any current promotions for Moxi laser treatment?
Yes, a $200 discount is currently available for a Moxi laser treatment when performed with Elizabeth.
What are the primary uses for TrapTox (Botox in the trapezius muscle)?
TrapTox is primarily used for two purposes: muscle slimming to create a longer neck appearance, and more commonly, for stress and tension relief in the trapezius muscle, which often gets tense due to bad posture or stress. Patients experience great pain relief and significant relaxation from this treatment.
What type of neurotoxin is used for TrapTox and how is it administered?
The practice treats tense trapezius muscles with any neurotoxin, injecting it directly into the muscle to ensure effectiveness.
How long does TrapTox treatment typically last and how many units are needed?
TrapTox treatment typically provides anywhere between five to six months of relief and requires anywhere between 35 to 50 units per side.
How do Semaglutide and Tirzepatide work for weight loss?
Both medications function similarly by suppressing appetite, leading to a feeling of fullness, reduced food and alcohol cravings, and slowed digestion. This results in eating less, fewer calories, and subsequent weight loss.
What are the differences between Semaglutide and Tirzepatide regarding side effects, efficacy, and cost?
Tirzepatide generally has fewer side effects than Semaglutide, with patients experiencing less nausea and fatigue, making it better tolerated overall. While the weight loss is also slightly better with Tirzepatide, the difference is not substantial. However, Tirzepatide is typically a bit more expensive.
Who is a good candidate for CoolSculpting and how is treatment planned?
CoolSculpting is effective for individuals who have squeezable fat in specific areas of the body. The practice uses an applicator to mark out the specific treatment locations, identifying 'peak points' to determine where to apply the CoolSculpting treatment for optimal contouring.
What should I expect from CoolSculpting results?
CoolSculpting is effective for stubborn fat pockets and body contouring, not major weight loss. Optimal results may require multiple sessions.
How do PRP injections work for under-eye hollows and what are their advantages?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) naturally builds up tissue and stimulates collagen by finding its way through crevices, helping to restore lost facial fat that contributes to under-eye hollows. PRP offers a natural approach and is described as painless. It is a great treatment when done in a series or in conjunction with dermal fillers for enhanced results.
How long does it take to see full results from PRP injections?
It takes about two months after the PRP procedure to really see the full results.
How quickly does Dysport take effect?
Dysport has a quick onset of action, with effects progressing visibly on Day 1, Day 4, and Day 7.
When is the best time of year for laser treatments?
While laser procedures can be performed any time of year, they are generally recommended for fall and winter. This is because patients are typically at their most natural skin tone (without a tan), which allows the laser to be more effective. Tans require lower laser energy, making it harder to target skin problems like brown spots, redness, and pores. However, treatments can be done in the summer if the patient is diligent about staying out of the sun.
What type of filler is used for jawline enhancement and what are the expected results?
Juvederm Volux is used for jawline enhancement, placed at the rear of the mandible or jawbone to delicately augment existing curvature, contour the jaw, and provide definition.
What is the recovery time after using ProNox?
Patients can typically drive home ten minutes after using ProNox, as its effects wear off quickly.
How does PhalloFILL™ work and what are its characteristics?
PhalloFILL™ is a non-surgical, customizable procedure that involves dermal filler injection into the penis, combined with a proprietary post-care regimen. This unique post-care is key to the procedure's success, delivering natural, long-lasting, and instant results for male girth enhancement. It is designed to add both volume and definition for a more sculpted look, and is considered a safe, effective, and relatively painless solution tailored for the individual.
Is PhalloFILL™ a permanent male enhancement solution?
PhalloFILL™ is a non-surgical procedure that provides long-lasting results for male girth enhancement, but it is not a permanent solution like some surgical implants.
Does the practice offer complimentary consultations for PhalloFILL™?
Yes, the practice offers complimentary consultations specifically for PhalloFILL™.
What are the benefits of Moxi laser treatment?
Moxi is a gentle laser treatment perfect for refreshing your skin, reducing sun damage, and achieving a radiant, youthful look.
