FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT ARE QWO INJECTIONS?
QWO injections were designed to reach the collagen between the skin and the muscles that pull skin tight against fat cells, causing cellulite dimpling. QWO composition holds two enzymes that break down the collagen in these fibrous cords, easing tension and releasing cellulite dimples. QWO can also set up the redistribution of fat cells and trigger the growth of new collagen allowing a frimer, tighter appearance to the skin. It can promote noticeable reductions in cellulite after just 3 treatments.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING THE QWO PROCEDURE?
The whole QWO procedure will only take around 10 minutes. The injections will be administered with no need for anesthesia and no post-treatment downtime. During your initial consultation at StudioMD we will discuss your cellulite frustrations and, together, identify the areas you would like to treat. Later on, during the actual procedure, you will relax comfortably while your physician uses a very small needle to inject QWO in the problem areas previously discussed. Most patients undergo 10-12 QWO injections per session, with sessions spaced 21 days apart.
ARE QWO® INJECTIONS SAFE?
Take comfort in knowing that QWO has been studied in more patients than any other FDA-approved injectable cellulite treatment, with over 1,800 women participating. Two identical trials, involving adult women of all skin types and ethnicities, found that QWO® caused significant and safe reduction in cellulite in the buttocks. As a result, QWO® was officially approved by the FDA in 2020.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS KNOWN TO QWO®?
Common side effects associated with QWO can include: injection site bruising, pain, areas of hardness, itching, redness, discoloration, swelling and warmth in the treatment area. Although rare, serious side effects can include: allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis (hypersensitivity) and injection site bruising may occur. Also, keep in mind that you should not receive QWO if you are allergic to any collagenase or the ingredients in QWO, or have an active infection in the treatment area.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
QWO costs will vary depending on the severity of your cellulite. The treatment is usually sold as a package of three treatment sessions spaced 21 days apart. Package treatments start at $2,250 for three sessions with one vial applied each session.
