LTHawaiiFebruary 2, 2023To Anyone with a Fear of Needles - You Are in Good Hands Here!My first visit to Aesthetics Hawaii was SUPER pleasant! The receptionists were very welcoming. Jenn took the time to talk to me, explain the TMJ botox procedure, show me how effective it can be, answered my questions and concerns, and was really relatable and approachable. She took note that I'm afraid of needles and was patient the entire time.When Dr. Yew came in, he had already gone over...troisinDecember 7, 2022This made a big difference in achieving a natural youthful lookDoctor Yew and his team are amazing. The office is well run and the staff is always kind. At my first appointment with Doctor Yew, I wanted under eye fillers, but he explained why I didn’t need them (I don’t). In my past experience other injectors would just take my money and do it, but Doctor Yew is different. He cares about the individual and only recommends for a true need. I’ve been going...flygrlhnl808July 31, 2022Great RHA1 treatment for upper lip lines - loving the resultsI was given the RHA1 for my upper lip lines by Dr Yew and it looks great! He explained the procedure step by step and put me at ease. The numbing process is always important for comfort and I felt very comfortable during the procedure with numbing and breathing exercises he shows you before starting the process! I’m loving the results and plan on getting more treatments with Dr Yew!!MC808June 29, 20226 months and the results look good- natural and long lastingI’ve been seeing Dr. Yew for a few years now and am always happy with the results. I’m in my late 30s and most recently came in with concerns about signs of aging on my face. Dr. Yew and his assistant took their time to explain the causes and treatment options. Dr. Yew even talked me out of some unnecessary treatments that I was considering such as lip and facial fillers. I ultimately dec...OnigrooveJune 7, 2022New to Botox - he put me at ease and answered all my questionsDr. Yew is amazing. I am new to Botox and fillers. He put me at ease, answered all my questions, and did not push any procedures that I did not want. His philosophy is take it slow. Build a foundation for a more natural look. Highly recommend!As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.

45 Q&A
Q: Should I ask injector to confirm and show me the exact brand of injectable before injection?Answered by Dr. YewJanuary 7, 2024A: It's a good idea to ask questions whenever it involves your body and injectables. Given the increasing number of injectors - I suggest asking first:How many years have you been injecting full time? The more years - the more experienced.Ask to see the vial or syringe Expiration Date to make sure you are getting what you requested.At our practice - each provider shows every patient the vial or syringe with the expiration date so they know what they are getting.Q: What is the brand you use for Botox?Answered by Dr. YewOctober 13, 2023A: The various brands of Botox are manufactured by different companies but essentially - the active molecule is the same. (Similar to "Ibuprofen" but there are brands such as Motrin, Advil, etc....) Botox/Dysport/Xeomin/Jeuveau all last 3-4 months. Daxxify is reported to last a bit longer - maybe up to 6 months. The variation depends on multiple factors such as concentration, injection volume, anatomy etc... More important than the product - is the injector. (If you get a good haircut - was it the scissors (botox) of the stylist (injector). Watch the attached videos for a better explanation:Q: DLI Botox - will this vertical band in my neck go away?Answered by Dr. YewSeptember 19, 2023A: The platysmal bands can be treated with Botox - aka "Nefertiti Lift. Watch a video of Dr Yew explaining how it works:Another useful video to watch is regarding the truth behind Asymmetry. Most experienced injectors do not chase symmetry. Watch this video to see why:Q: 40 years old, sculptra for slight face lift? (photos)Answered by Dr. YewSeptember 13, 2023A: You look great for your age. You have excellent features - with a beautiful smile and wonderful cheeks and lips. Please watch the supporting video on Sculptra as it's not a filler. It's the most natural injectable in aesthetics.Also - avoid trying to fix asymmetry. Our human body is asymmetric and that includes the face. Beware any practitioners who claim they can make you symmetrical. Watch the video below that explains that asymmetry is more desirable.Q: Can Botox and Dysport be done at the same session but in different areas?Answered by Dr. YewAugust 30, 2023A: We've been regularly using 2 brands on our patients for years. We use Dysport across the areas that need for wider spread and Botox or Jeuveau for areas that need tighter control. Please see the attached link for an explanation of the differences of all the FDA approved brands.
