Frequently Asked Questions

QWO for cellulite is a series of 3 injections that work against cellulite formation in the buttocks. The treatment is FDA-approved as one of the most effective solutions out there for moderate to severe cellulite.

QWO works by stimulating new collagen in targeted areas, releasing fibrous bands underneath the skin that cause those tell-tale dimples to form and redistributing fat cells. This multifaceted approach addresses why cellulite forms in the body in the first place, a reason why QWO cellulite removal injections have proven so successful.

As an FDA-approved treatment against cellulite, QWO has proven efficacy in the fight against the stubborn cosmetic condition. The buttocks is the only area of the body that has been studied so far using the QWO method.

The cost of QWO cellulite reduction is _____ for your series of 3 injections. A provider at Med Lounge can work with you on a customized treatment plan that may include recommendations for additional treatments to help you meet your body goals.

Some patients do see some visible improvement within a few weeks after their first round of injections. As the full course of QWO is a series of 3 separate injections, you’ll need to be patient to see your full results. Expect continued, visible improvement in the targeted areas in the weeks in between injections and following your last course of treatment.

Studies are still measuring how long QWO treatments last and may eventually point to a permanent result. At this time, patients should expect visible cellulite reduction for at least a year after their course of treatments.

What to Expect With QWO

For the best results and to reduce the chance of any side effects after your treatment, our experts at the Med Lounge have a few tips around what to expect with QWO before and after your procedure.

PRE-TREATMENT

  • Avoid any blood-thinning and anti-inflammatory medications for up to two weeks before your QWO injections. Medications to avoid include aspirin, Advil, ibuprofen, Motrin, fish oil supplements, vitamin E, ginkgo biloba and other NSAIDs.
  • Consider taking Arnica in the week before your treatment. Arnica has been shown to reduce swelling and inflammation and could reduce bruising post-treatment.
  • Come to your appointment well-hydrated, and drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your treatment. 
  • Avoid beverages with a diuretic effect, like drinks with caffeine or alcohol, for at least two days before your treatment. 
  • Leave the skin free of any lotions, makeup or serums the day of your treatment. 
  • Wear comfortable clothing on the day of your treatment. Your provider will need easy access to areas being targeted during your procedure.
  • If you’re planning your QWO treatment around significant events, schedule injections about four weeks ahead of any scheduled big event to allow any bruising or swelling to subside.

POST-TREATMENT

  • Avoid any strenuous exercise in the 24-48 hours after your treatment. This can increase swelling at the injection sites. After that time, feel free to return to your regular exercise routine.
  • Avoid intense sun and heat —  that includes hot tubs, saunas and hot baths — in the two weeks following your QWO treatment. Wait 24 hours before your first shower, hot or cold, after your treatment.
  • Avoid applying any lotions or creams to the treatment areas for several days after your injections.
  • Temporary side effects may include redness, bruising or swelling at your injection sites. Understand that this is normal and will go away on its own. If you’re feeling some discomfort at the injection sites, take an over-the-counter pain reliever like Tylenol.
  • Your provider may suggest compression garments to wear after your QWO cellulite treatment to relieve any discomfort you may feel. 
  • Your treatment plan will consist of 3 injections, likely spaced 3-4 weeks apart. Following your treatment plan will result in your best chance at long-lasting cellulite reduction.
  • Contact your provider immediately if you notice any severe symptoms such as signs of infection, fever, extreme bleeding or extreme pain in the days after your treatment.

BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) Important Information

 

Indications

BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) is indicated in adult patients for the temporary improvement in the appearance of:

– Moderate to severe glabellar lines associated with corrugator and/or procerus muscle activity

– Moderate to severe lateral canthal lines associated with orbicularis oculi activity

 

– Moderate to severe forehead lines associated with frontalis activity

 

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION, INCLUDING BOXED WARNING

 

WARNING: DISTANT SPREAD OF TOXIN EFFECT

Postmarketing reports indicate that the effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic and all botulinum toxin products may spread from the area of injection to produce symptoms consistent with botulinum toxin effects. These may include asthenia, generalized muscle weakness, diplopia, ptosis, dysphagia, dysphonia, dysarthria, urinary incontinence, and breathing difficulties. These symptoms have been reported hours to weeks after injection. Swallowing and breathing difficulties can be life threatening and there have been reports of death. The risk of symptoms is probably greatest in children treated for spasticity, but symptoms can also occur in adults treated for spasticity and other conditions, particularly in those patients who have an underlying condition that would predispose them to these symptoms. In unapproved uses and approved indications, cases of spread of effect have been reported at doses comparable to those used to treat cervical dystonia and spasticity and at lower doses.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

BOTOX® Cosmetic is contraindicated in the presence of infection at the proposed injection site(s) and in individuals with known hypersensitivity to any botulinum toxin preparation or to any of the components in the formulation.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Lack of Interchangeability Between Botulinum Toxin Products

The potency units of BOTOX® Cosmetic are specific to the preparation and assay method utilized. They are not interchangeable with other preparations of botulinum toxin products and, therefore, units of biological activity of BOTOX® Cosmetic cannot be compared to nor converted into units of any other botulinum toxin products assessed with any other specific assay method.

Spread of Toxin Effect

Please refer to Boxed Warning for Distant Spread of Toxin Effect.

No definitive serious adverse event reports of distant spread of toxin effect associated with dermatologic use of BOTOX® Cosmetic at the labeled dose of 20 Units (for glabellar lines), 24 Units (for lateral canthal lines), 40 Units (for forehead lines with glabellar lines), 44 Units (for simultaneous treatment of lateral canthal lines and glabellar lines), and 64 Units (for simultaneous treatment of lateral canthal lines, glabellar lines, and forehead lines) have been reported. Patients or caregivers should be advised to seek immediate medical care if swallowing, speech, or respiratory disorders occur.

Serious Adverse Reactions With Unapproved Use

Serious adverse reactions, including excessive weakness, dysphagia, and aspiration pneumonia, with some adverse reactions associated with fatal outcomes, have been reported in patients who received BOTOX® injections for unapproved uses. In these cases, the adverse reactions were not necessarily related to distant spread of toxin, but may have resulted from the administration of BOTOX® to the site of injection and/or adjacent structures. In several of the cases, patients had pre-existing dysphagia or other significant disabilities. There is insufficient information to identify factors associated with an increased risk for adverse reactions associated with the unapproved uses of BOTOX®. The safety and effectiveness of BOTOX® for unapproved uses have not been established.

Hypersensitivity Reactions

Serious and/or immediate hypersensitivity reactions have been reported. These reactions include anaphylaxis, serum sickness, urticaria, soft-tissue edema, and dyspnea. If such reactions occur, further injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic should be discontinued and appropriate medical therapy immediately instituted. One fatal case of anaphylaxis has been reported in which lidocaine was used as the diluent and, consequently, the causal agent cannot be reliably determined.

Cardiovascular System

There have been reports following administration of BOTOX® of adverse events involving the cardiovascular system, including arrhythmia and myocardial infarction, some with fatal outcomes. Some of these patients had risk factors including pre-existing cardiovascular disease. Use caution when administering to patients with pre-existing cardiovascular disease.

Increased Risk of Clinically Significant Effects With Pre-existing Neuromuscular Disorders

Individuals with peripheral motor neuropathic diseases, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or neuromuscular junction disorders (eg, myasthenia gravis or Lambert-Eaton syndrome) should be monitored when given botulinum toxin. Patients with neuromuscular disorders may be at increased risk of clinically significant effects including generalized muscle weakness, diplopia, ptosis, dysphonia, dysarthria, severe dysphagia, and respiratory compromise from onabotulinumtoxinA (see Warnings and Precautions).

Dysphagia and Breathing Difficulties

Treatment with BOTOX® and other botulinum toxin products can result in swallowing or breathing difficulties. Patients with pre-existing swallowing or breathing difficulties may be more susceptible to these complications. In most cases, this is a consequence of weakening of muscles in the area of injection that are involved in breathing or oropharyngeal muscles that control swallowing or breathing (see Boxed Warning).

Pre-existing Conditions at the Injection Site

Caution should be used when BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment is used in the presence of inflammation at the proposed injection site(s) or when excessive weakness or atrophy is present in the target muscle(s).

Dry Eye in Patients Treated With BOTOX® Cosmetic

There have been reports of dry eye associated with BOTOX® Cosmetic injection in or near the orbicularis oculi muscle. If symptoms of dry eye (eg, eye irritation, photophobia, or visual changes) persist, consider referring patients to an ophthalmologist.

Human Albumin and Transmission of Viral Diseases

This product contains albumin, a derivative of human blood. Based on effective donor screening and product manufacturing processes, it carries an extremely remote risk for transmission of viral diseases and variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD). There is a theoretical risk for transmission of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), but if that risk actually exists, the risk of transmission would also be considered extremely remote. No cases of transmission of viral diseases, CJD or vCJD have ever been identified for licensed albumin or albumin contained in other licensed products.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

The most frequently reported adverse reactions following injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic for glabellar lines were eyelid ptosis (3%), facial pain (1%), facial paresis (1%), and muscular weakness (1%).

The most frequently reported adverse reaction following injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic for lateral canthal lines was eyelid edema (1%).

The most frequently reported adverse reactions following injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic for forehead lines with glabellar lines were headache (9%), brow ptosis (2%), and eyelid ptosis (2%).

DRUG INTERACTIONS

Co-administration of BOTOX® Cosmetic and aminoglycosides or other agents interfering with neuromuscular transmission (eg, curare-like compounds) should only be performed with caution as the effect of the toxin may be potentiated. Use of anticholinergic drugs after administration of BOTOX® Cosmetic may potentiate systemic anticholinergic effects.

The effect of administering different botulinum neurotoxin products at the same time or within several months of each other is unknown. Excessive neuromuscular weakness may be exacerbated by

administration of another botulinum toxin prior to the resolution of the effects of a previously administered botulinum toxin.

Excessive weakness may also be exaggerated by administration of a muscle relaxant before or after administration of BOTOX® Cosmetic.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

There are no studies or adequate data from postmarketing surveillance on the developmental risk associated with use of BOTOX® Cosmetic in pregnant women. There are no data on the presence of BOTOX® Cosmetic in human or animal milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production.
