What is an ultrasound guided injection and how does it work?

Ultrasound guided injections use real-time imaging to map blood vessels and other structures beneath the skin before treatment is placed. Dr Roshan Dalpadado uses this technique to guide precise, safe placement during certain aesthetic treatments.

Why would I need ultrasound guidance for an aesthetic treatment?

In some areas of the face, blood vessels sit close to the surface, and knowing exactly where they are reduces risk during treatment. Your doctor will advise whether this is recommended for the specific area and treatment you’re considering.

How much does an ultrasound guided injection cost?

Please call reception on (02) 6109 9320 to discuss fees, as cost depends on the area and purpose of the procedure.

Is there any downtime after the procedure?

Downtime varies depending on the individual and the specific procedure. Your doctor will talk you through what to expect at your consultation.

How long does the procedure take?

This is typically a short, in-clinic appointment. Your doctor can confirm timing when you book.
