Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most popular aesthetic treatment services in Michigan?

What is considered aesthetic treatment?
Aesthetic medicine encompasses treatments that address unwanted appearance issues including wrinkles, skin laxity, excess fat, cellulite, unwanted hair, and skin discoloration. These treatments can be surgical or non-surgical, with modern options focusing on minimally invasive procedures that enhance natural beauty.
How long does aesthetic treatment last?
The duration varies by treatment type. Dermal fillers typically last 6-18 months, while Botox results generally last 3-4 months. Areas with more movement, such as the lips and mouth, may require more frequent touch-ups compared to areas like the forehead.
What are the side effects of aesthetic treatment?
Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and bruising. More rare complications can include allergic reactions, infection, or nerve damage. To minimize risks, it’s crucial to choose a qualified professional like Donald G. Clark, PA-C, who has 37 years of experience in the field.
Is aesthetic treatment permanent?
No, aesthetic treatments are not permanent. While some treatments like laser therapy can provide results lasting 3-5 years, most require periodic maintenance to maintain optimal results. Regular follow-up treatments are typically necessary to preserve the desired appearance.
Should I get an aesthetic treatment, and if so, which one?
The best treatment depends on your specific concerns and goals. At Clark Internal Medicine and Aesthetics, we provide personalized consultations to evaluate your needs and create a tailored treatment plan that addresses your unique aesthetic goals.
What is the best aesthetic treatment for aging skin?
For aging skin, a combination approach often works best. Popular options include Botox for dynamic wrinkles, dermal fillers for volume loss, and laser treatments for skin texture improvement. Donald G. Clark, PA-C’s expertise in both Botox and dermal fillers ensures natural-looking results that enhance your features.
Can you get Botox and still look natural?
Yes, natural-looking Botox results are absolutely achievable. The key is using appropriate dosing and strategic placement. The goal is to soften and smooth fine lines while maintaining natural facial expressions, not to create a frozen appearance.
