Botox, Dysport, Xeomin being injected into the cheek of a client's face

Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin

Neuromodulators help maintain the integrity of the skin by inhibiting muscle contraction. Fine lines and wrinkles smooth out to reduce signs of aging and new line formation is prevented.

  • Common areas that are treated are in between the brows, on the forehead and around the eyes. They can also be used in more advanced areas such as the lower face, jawline, neck, décolletage, facial slimming and TMJ treatments.

    Hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating of the face, hands, and underarms is another possible condition that we can treat with neurotoxins.

    There is little to no downtime associated with this treatment. Results last 3-4 months.

Dermal Filler

Through appropriate facial assessment we can determine areas of the face that can be treated with hyaluronic acid fillers in order to achieve natural and beautiful results.

  • We can add fullness and hydration to the lips, definition to the cheeks and jawline, improve shadowing in the under eye and elongate the chin as well as create balance or harmony among features.

    As we age, our bone and fat pads lose volume, causing unwanted shadowing and skin folds. Hyaluronic acid fillers are used to restore this lost volume in precise areas. Patients will undergo a complete, full facial assessment to go over specific areas of concern as well as discuss the aging process. A treatment plan specific to your needs will be developed.

    Results last 12-18 months or longer once volume replacement is at a desirable point.

Sculptra

This FDA-approved injectable subtly and gradually helps restore facial volume and the look of fullness to wrinkles and folds.

  • As collagen starts diminishing in our 30s, Sculptra can be an incredible tool to activate the skin's natural regenerative process to help with your anti-aging goals.

    As a collagen stimulator, Sculptra helps restore the deep, underlying structure of the skin to diminish facial wrinkles and replenish lost facial collagen. As the Sculptra microparticles are absorbed, they help stimulate and revitalize collagen production. Collagen is the most common protein in the body and helps support the skin's inner structure. Results appear gradually and can last up to two years.

    Sculptra is made from Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which is a biodegradable substance. It has been proven safe and has been used in medical products, including dissolvable sutures, for more than 30 years.

    Treatment regimen is typically three injections over the course of three or four months. Individual results and treatment sessions may vary.

Sofwave

Sofwave™ is FDA cleared and clinically proven to remodel collagen, which improves facial lines and wrinkles, and lifts the eyebrows, submental, and neck area. 

  • Starting in our mid-20s, collagen and elastin begin to break down, causing our skin to wrinkle and lose its elasticity. Sofwave™ is a clinically proven, non-invasive approach to remodeling collagen, which improves facial lines and wrinkles and a lifting effect to the eyebrows, neck, and submental region.  

    Using proprietary Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam SUPERB™ technology, ultrasound energy precisely passes through the skin’s surface (the epidermis), heating the mid-dermal tissue at just the precise depth and temperature to rejuvenate collagen fibers and improve the overall appearance of the skin. 

    • Most patients showed significant improvement after one treatment

    • FDA cleared to treat facial lines and wrinkles and lift the eyebrows, submental, and neck. 

    • Non-surgical – minimal downtime – 30-45-minute treatment.

Kybella

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that destroys fat cells in the treatment area under the chin to improve your profile.

  • The active ingredient in Kybella is deoxycholic acid, which is naturally occurring in the body. It aids in the breakdown and absorption of fat. When injected into fat, it destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. These destroyed cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, so further treatment is not expected once you reach your desired aesthetic goal.

    You may need 2-4 treatments to reach your desired endpoint.

Medical Grade Microneedling

With or without Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

SkinPen is an FDA-cleared microneedling device. It is proven safe and effective, delivering results that continue to be seen for up to six months. This treatment can help treat acne scarring, fines lines and wrinkles, and can improve the skin’s tone and texture.

  • It is a quick-and-easy treatment, yielding a few days of redness and mild peeling. It is proven to improve the appearance of acne scars and wrinkles, reduce pore size, and improve skin texture as well as pigmentation concerns.

    With an in-office blood draw, you may choose to use your body's own platelet rich plasma (PRP). Tiny perforations created during the treatment deliver the PRP to the deepest layers of the skin, stimulating the growth of new, healthy skin cells. PRP may help cut healing time in half as well as optimize your treatment results.

    The SkinPen's 3 Step Process

    Inflammation: SkinPen’s microneedles pierce the skin, triggering your immune system to disinfect the wounds, remove debris, increase blood flow, and begin to create new tissue.

    Proliferation: The micro-wounds created by SkinPen are rebuilt with new granulation cells that include collagen proteins.

    Remodeling: The wound is replaced with new dermal tissues and blood vessels which are composed of rich collagen and elastin proteins. These proteins improve skin youthfulness.

    A series of treatments is recommended for best results.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

Under Eye, Acne Scars, or Hair Restoration

PRP is a more natural option to treat certain problem areas. It is a form of regenerative medicine that contains your own growth factors that increase collagen production when injected back into the skin.

  • It can help tighten loose skin around the eyes and can be injected to treat fine lines on the face. It can also be an effective treatment for acne scars and hair loss.

    PRP treatment for hair restoration can slow down hair shedding and reverse hair miniaturization, making finer hairs become thicker. Platelet Rich Plasma contains healing factors from your own blood that are instrumental in hair growth, wound healing, and are capable of regenerating hair follicles.

    For best results, a series of 3-4 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart is recommended. Maintenance treatments are encouraged thereafter.

VI Peel/Chemical Peel

Face OR Body

The VI Peel treatments are suitable for all skin types. They contain a synergistic blend of powerful ingredients that work to improve the tone, texture and clarity of the skin.

  • A single treatment can help reduce age spots, improve hyperpigmentation (including melasma), soften lines and wrinkles, clear acne skin conditions and reduce acne scars. The VI Peel will stimulate the production of collagen, for firmer, more youthful skin. Results are seen in as little as 7 days.

    VI Peel is not just for the face but for the body, too!

    VI Peel Body is the first and only professional-grade body peel for all skin types and tones specifically designed to reduce pigmentation, clear body acne, fade surgical scars, and smooth away stretch marks. In addition it can address pigmentation and fine lines on the décolleté

    For best results, a series of 3 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart is recommended.

Lauren is using dermaplanning on a client's face to help her improve her skin

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a simple way to rejuvenate your skin and is safe on all skin types. It is a type of exfoliation that removes dead skin and fine hairs on the face.

  • It exposes younger, brighter, smoother skin, which helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles naturally. Exfoliation helps your skincare products penetrate the skin and potentiate their results. Dermaplaning can also help prevent breakouts. By removing fine hairs on the face that trap dirt and oil, causing acne, we can decrease the frequency of breakouts. If you are looking for a gentle treatment that gives you an immediate glow, this is it!
