Aesthetic Procedures: Are They “Worth It”?

June 23rd, 2025 | By: Admin

So you’re think about a little cosmetic rejuvenation for your skin, but worried things might not turn out as you plan. Sure, your friend said it’s great, but will you get the same results? And what about that horror story you read about on the internet?


“I think it’s normal to be apprehensive,” says Dr. Miriam Hanson, top cosmetic dermatologist in Austin, Texas. “You have a goal for your skin and want to make sure you get the most out of your investment.”


At Sanova Dermatology, we pride ourselves on staying ahead of the game when it comes to aesthetic procedures and ensuring that they offer the best results possible for our patients. So let’s ask the question: Is it worth it?*


Salicylic Acid Peels (100% Worth It Rating) – Superficial chemical peels are great for assisting with skin cell turnover, acne and pigmentation correction.


Facials (97% Worth It Rating) – This relaxing procedure is used for opening and cleansing the pores, removing excess scaly skin cells, stimulating blood flow in the face, as well as the natural production of collagen.


Kybella (95% Worth It Rating) – Struggling with a double chin? This injectable treatment is able to dissolve fat that becomes stored in the anatomic pad under the chin that contributes to neck fullness.


Botox (94% Worth It Rating) – When looking for a simple way to smooth wrinkles and a more youthful appearance, Botox is one of the most simple and effective options available.


Juvederm (90% Worth It Rating) – Over time, our face can lose volume in the cheeks and deep creases can begin to form. Juvederm assists in restoring that lost volume and plumping the cheeks, lips, and can also be used for filling dark circles beneath the eyes.


miraDry (91 % Worth It Rating) – Do you use antiperspirant? Experience underarm sweating? This revolutionary procedure will have you saying a permanent au revoir to 81% of sweat production and a farewell to odor in a single treatment.


Laser Hair Removal (90% Worth It Rating) – Get rid your unwanted body hair? With just a few sessions of Laser Hair Removal, you are able to fully treat areas like the bikini, underarms, legs, upper lip, and many more.

“Obviously, everyone wants to be satisfied with their cosmetic treatment,” says Dr. Hanson. “But before scheduling your procedure, it is extremely important to determine if you are a good candidate! That’s why I like to meet with every patient, discuss their goal, and review treatment options before booking any cosmetic procedure.”
