Botox typically lasts 3 to 6 months. Most patients at our Chennai clinic return every 4–5 months for a maintenance session. With regular treatments over time, the treated muscles gradually learn to remain relaxed, meaning results can last progressively longer — and some patients find they need less product with each subsequent session.

Yes — Botox is safe when performed by a certified aesthetic doctor using clinically approved botulinum toxin products. Minor side effects such as mild redness, swelling, or light bruising at the injection site may occur but typically resolve within 24–48 hours. Serious complications are extremely rare when the procedure is performed by a properly trained medical professional using the correct product and dosage. We never use unbranded or counterfeit products.

Botox is a muscle-relaxing injection that temporarily reduces dynamic expression lines — wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements such as forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines. Dermal fillers are volume-restoring injections — typically hyaluronic acid — that plump hollows, define contours (cheeks, jawline, chin), and fill static folds that are visible even at rest. They work on different causes of ageing and are frequently combined for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation result.

Treatment costs in Chennai vary depending on the area treated, product used, and complexity of the plan. As a general guide: Botox starts from approximately ₹8,000–₹25,000 per area treated; Dermal Fillers typically range from ₹20,000–₹50,000 per syringe; Medifacials and Chemical Peels start from ₹3,000–₹8,000 per session. A personalised, accurate cost estimate is provided only after your in-clinic doctor assessment, as no two treatment plans are the same.

Most patients require a course of 4–6 chemical peel sessions spaced 2–4 weeks apart to achieve visible improvement in pigmentation, melasma, uneven skin tone, or acne scarring. The exact number depends on peel strength (glycolic, salicylic, lactic, TCA), your skin type, and the severity of discolouration. Maintenance sessions every 2–3 months help sustain and enhance results long term.

A Medifacial (medical facial) is a doctor-customised, medical-grade facial that uses pharmaceutical-strength active ingredients and clinical devices unavailable in standard spas. Unlike a routine spa facial — which primarily cleanses and moisturises the surface — a Medifacial targets specific skin conditions such as pigmentation, acne, dehydration, and dullness at a cellular level, using clinically proven actives (such as AHA, BHA, vitamin C, peptides, and growth factors) to deliver measurable, lasting improvements.

Natural enhancement is our guiding philosophy at Maynee. Our certified aesthetic doctors use precise techniques and conservative amounts of product — ensuring you look refreshed, rested, and like the best version of yourself, not altered or overdone. The majority of our patients report that people around them simply say they look unusually well — not that they can identify any specific treatment. We never follow trends that prioritise volume over harmony.

Most facial aesthetic treatments at our Chennai clinic have minimal to zero downtime. Botox and Dermal Fillers typically allow you to return to daily activities the same day. Thread Lifts may involve mild swelling or tenderness for 3–5 days. Chemical Peels may cause light surface peeling for 2–4 days depending on peel depth. Medifacials have no downtime. Your doctor will discuss exactly what to expect based on your personalised treatment plan at the time of your assessment.

There is no single correct age to begin facial aesthetic treatments. Preventive Botox is increasingly popular from age 25–30 to slow the formation of deep expression lines before they become established. Dermal fillers and Thread Lifts are most commonly sought from age 30–55 for volume restoration and lifting. Medifacials and Chemical Peels benefit any adult age. Our doctors conduct a thorough facial and skin assessment before recommending the most appropriate treatment for your specific stage, skin condition, and goals.

The right treatment depends on your specific concerns, facial anatomy, skin type, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals — and the best way to determine it is through a proper doctor-led facial assessment. At Maynee, our certified aesthetic doctors evaluate your face in detail before recommending any treatment. We never take a one-size-fits-all approach: your plan is designed exclusively for you, often combining two or more complementary treatments for the most natural and effective outcome.
