Frequently Asked Questions

  • What's the difference between tox and dermal filler for facial lines?

    Tox addresses muscle-driven movement like forehead lines and crow's feet by temporarily relaxing underlying muscles, while dermal filler supports volume, shape, and symmetry in areas like cheeks, lips, and under-eye hollows. Treatment amount and placement are customized to facial anatomy and goals during evaluation.
  • Why does laser hair removal require multiple sessions instead of one treatment?

    Hair grows in cycles, and laser energy only affects follicles in active growth phase during each session. Dormant follicles won't respond until they enter the growth cycle weeks later. Treatment is approached as a series with customized timing based on the treatment area and individual hair growth patterns.
  • What affects how many sessions tattoo removal takes?

    Size, ink color, age, depth, and whether it's body art or cosmetic tattooing all influence treatment plans. Laser energy targets pigment so the body can gradually clear fragmented ink, but darker colors and deeper placement require more sessions. Older tattoos often respond faster than recent ones because ink has already begun breaking down naturally.
  • How is Morpheus8 different from regular microneedling?

    Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy delivered at deeper levels to support collagen remodeling in tissue layers standard microneedling doesn't reach. This makes it effective for laxity, texture, acne scarring, and areas where surface-only treatment produces limited change. A consultation determines appropriate treatment areas and realistic expectations.
  • Can SkinPen microneedling be used on areas other than the face?

    SkinPen treats extended areas including the neck, decolletage, and hands where texture, fine lines, or uneven tone are concerns. Controlled microchannels trigger the skin's natural repair response, supporting progressive renewal over weeks. Treatment depth and area are customized during consultation based on skin condition and goals.
  • What's the difference between a Deluxe Facial and a Corrective Facial at Freeman?

    Deluxe Facials focus on cleansing, hydration, and maintenance, while Level 1 and Level 2 Corrective Facials address specific concerns like congestion, acne, hyperpigmentation, and uneven texture with clinical-grade actives. Treatment intensity is selected according to skin condition, barrier health, and previous use of active ingredients following professional skin analysis.
  • Why does Freeman offer Jeuveau on Tuesdays instead of Botox?

    Jeuveau is a neuromodulator that works the same way as Botox to temporarily soften facial lines caused by repeated muscle movement. Tox Tuesday at both Moore and Duncan locations offers Jeuveau with injector-led planning and customized placement. Duncan also offers Monday Madness, and Botox is available at the Duncan location for patients who prefer it.
  • What happens during a Glo2Facial treatment?

    Glo2Facials use technology-enhanced components delivered in Lite, Essential, or Premium levels, with higher tiers adding treatment layers and customization. The approach emphasizes an elevated, modern facial experience with branded technology tailored to skin analysis findings. This service is available only at the Moore location.
  • Does lymphatic massage help with post-treatment swelling after injectables?

    Lymphatic massage supports the body's natural drainage pathways and is positioned as wellness-focused care complementing Freeman's medical aesthetics services. While it's offered at the Moore location, specific post-procedure protocols should be discussed during your injectable consultation to determine appropriate timing and technique for individual treatment plans.
  • Can laser hair removal work on the bikini or Brazilian area?

    Laser hair removal treats common body areas including bikini and Brazilian zones using advanced laser technology customized to treatment area and hair characteristics. Because hair grows in cycles, treatment is approached as a series with consultation required to establish realistic expectations and session planning based on individual goals.
