FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions for Richmond Hill Patients

How far is Thrive! MedAesthetics from Richmond Hill?

Thrive! is at 105-15017 Yonge Street in Aurora (our suite is on the lower level), a straight drive north on Yonge Street from Richmond Hill with no highway needed. Oak Ridges and the northern Yonge corridor are closest. Drive time depends on where you start and on traffic.

Will I look frozen after botulinum toxin (Botox)?

Looking frozen isn't the goal. We aim for you to look rested and like yourself on a really good day, not "done." We use botulinum toxin (such as Botox or Xeomin) with a light, careful hand, softening the lines that bother you while keeping the movement and expression that make your face yours. Your physician reviews the risks with you first. Results vary.

Is there anything that can actually help skin laxity without surgery?

There are non-surgical options. Skin laxity is partly a structural change: the supportive layer beneath the skin loosens over time, and skincare alone can't reach it. Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound to heat that deeper layer and prompt your body's own collagen renewal over the following months. Some patients also consider a collagen-stimulating filler (calcium hydroxylapatite, such as Radiesse). Your consultation looks at which option, if any, suits you. Results vary.

My labs are normal but I don't feel like myself. Could this be hormonal?

Feeling unlike yourself is worth taking seriously, even when standard results come back normal. We look at comprehensive blood work alongside your symptoms and history to understand the fuller picture. If hormone therapy is an option, your physician walks you through the benefits and risks, and we work alongside your own primary care provider.

I feel fine right now: is a longevity program really necessary if nothing is obviously wrong?

Feeling well is a great place to start. Many of the changes that shape how we age, such as rising blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol, build quietly for years before they cause symptoms. A longevity program maps your baseline now with comprehensive testing, so we can spot trends early and build a physician-led plan around you. Think of it as a check-engine light you can read before it comes on.

Do you offer payment plans for Richmond Hill patients?

Yes. Thrive! offers patient financing through third-party lenders (pre-approval is required) and VIP Membership plans with member pricing on cosmetic services. Hormone, longevity and testing programs aren't part of membership pricing. You'll get clear pricing before any treatment, and our team can help you choose the option that fits your plan.

Can I do some of my visits virtually?

Yes, for some programs. Our hormone programs include virtual options for patients anywhere in Ontario, so some follow-up visits can happen from home. Treatments, and some tests, take place at our Aurora clinic.
