Menu of services
Neuromodulators
With aging and repeated facial movements, we begin to create fine lines and wrinkles. Neuromodulators are wrinkle-relaxing injections of purified botulinum toxin. When injected into specific muscles, neuromodultors temporarily block nerve signals, preventing these muscles from contracting. This results in a smoother, more relaxed appearance of the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Our Med Spa currently offers Botox® and Dysport®.
Botox® (onabotulinumtoxinA)
Botox® Cosmetic is one of the most well-known neuromodulators. It has been FDA approved for cosmetic use for over 20 years, to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines, crow's feet lines, and forehead lines in adults. Results typically last up to 3 to 4 months.
Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA)
Dysport® for injection has been approved in the US for aesthetic use for over 15 years, to temporarily improve the the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar (between the eyebrows) lines in adults. Average time of onset is as little as 2 to 3 days after treatment and may reduce the appearance of lines for up to 5 months.
HA Dermal Fillers
In our 30s, collagen and elastin production start to slow significantly (vital components of youthful skin, helping to keep it lifted, full and resilient). In our 40s, and with weight loss, we may begin to notice more significant hollowing under our eyes, flattening of our cheeks and sagging of the jawline due to loss of support from fat and collagen. In our 50s and beyond, our fat pads and bone start to diminish (noted in the cheeks, jawline, and brow area).
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a sugar naturally produced by the body that retains moisture, with the highest concentrations in our eyes, joints, and skin. Injectable HA is a type of temporary dermal filler, used to reduce the appearance of volume loss in the lips and face, create structure and framework for the face, and help reduce the appearance of facial folds and wrinkles. Our Med Spa currently offers the Juvéderm® collection of HA fillers.
Juvéderm voluma® xc
Used to correct age-related volume loss in the midface, creating lift and contour to the cheeks, and for shaping and augmentation of the chin region, improving the chin profile .
Juvéderm volux® xc
Is indicated for improvement of jawline structure and definition.
juvéderm® Ultra XC
Ultra & Ultra Plus (a more robust gel) are indicated for correction of moderate to severe wrinkles and folds, such as the nasolabial folds (smile or laugh lines-the creases in the skin that extend from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth). Ultra is also used to plump the lips, for up to 1 year.
juvéderm vollure™️ xc
Tailored to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds by adding subtle volume; lasting up to 18 months. Also helps smooth oral commissures (lines at the corners of the mouth, where the upper and lower lips meet) and marionette lines (creases or lines that extend from the corners of your mouth to your chin; "puppet lines").
Juvéderm volbella® xc
A soft, smooth gel used to subtly increase lip fullness and soften the appearance of perioral lines (the vertical wrinkles, also known as "smoker lines", that appear around the mouth and lips as a person ages.
skinvive™️ by Juvéderm®
Is the first and only FDA-approved HA microdroplet injectable in the US to improve skin smoothness of the cheeks. Skinvive™️ increases hydration to provide a refreshed glow for up to 6 months.
RESTYLANE️® KYSSE
Made with XpresHAn Technology™, an innovative crosslinked hyaluronic acid (HA) gel created for precise, natural-looking results. With the ideal balance of flexibility, support, and a natural feel, you can maintain a full range of expressions; for fuller, natural-looking lips.
RESTYLANE️® Lyft & RESTYLANE® CONTOUR
Restylane® Lyft is a safe, effective, and dissolvable HA filler specifically designed to create structure in the cheek area by replenishing lost volume for a more youthful-looking appearance. Restylane® Contour is the only cheek filler designed with XpresHAn Technology™ to restore cheek definition with natural-looking results and flexible movement.
RESTYLANE️® DEFYNE
A hyaluronic acid (HA) filler that helps to soften deep laugh lines, such as nasolabial folds, and can be used to define the shape of the chin.
RESTYLANE️® REFYNE
A dermal filler designed to smooth and soften lines and wrinkles, such as moderate smile lines and lines around the mouth. Designed with XpresHAn Technology™ for flexible refinement of dynamic areas, Restylane Refyne moves with your expressions for natural-looking results.
Kybella®(Deoxycholic Acid)
Is an FDA approved injectable to treat moderate to severe submental fat in adults; known as the "double chin". Kybella® permanently destroys fat cells for an improved chin profile. The treatment is individually tailored according to the amount of submental fat and the aesthetic goals of the patient. A treatment series is recommended.
Sculptra® (Injectable Poly-L-Lactic Acid)
Is indicated for the correction of shallow to deep nasolabial folds and other facial wrinkles, lines and folds. Sculptra® rebuilds natural facial collagen, to help restore structure and lost facial volume, resulting in a more youthful-looking appearance for up to 2 years. Sculptra® is not intended for injection into the lips or the area around the mouth.
What is the difference in HA filler vs poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA)?
HA fillers correct the symptoms of facial aging, while PLLA addresses the underlying cause: lost collagen.
HA fillers have an immediate result, but are not permanent. Retreatment over time is typically needed to maintain your results.
PLLA provides subtle results over time, and require more than one initial treatment session.
SkinPen® Microneedling
Want to uncover your best skin?
SkinPen® is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device, made in the USA. SkinPen® is used to improve the appearance of acne scars and wrinkles. Typical treatment is as few as 3 treatments, spaced 30 days apart, with improvement in your skin's appearance for 6 months after your last treatment.
SkinPen® is a minimally invasive procedure that creates hundreds to thousands of "micro" skin punctures to stimulate the skin's natural healing process, leading to the production of new collagen and elastin.
SkinPen® can be effective for both women and men, with all Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-VI (Ivory-think prominent actress Nicole Kidman or Prince Harry, to deep Brown-think elite supermodel Naomi Campbell or famous actor Denzel Washington).
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)
What is prf?
PRF is an autologous (obtained from you) blood concentrate, that is 100% natural, free of additives and chemicals, and is packed with powerful cells for skin rejuvenation.
how?
A small sample of your blood is drawn, then spun slowly in a centrifuge to separate your blood cells. The top layer is then collected, which is composed of your platelets, white blood cells, and Mesenchymal stem cells. Utilizing these in treatment will result in a constant release of growth factors for 10-12 days, boosting collagen production, reducing signs of aging.
Benefits of prf in aesthetics
PRF can be used to treat hair loss, dark under eye circles, acne scarring, fines lines and wrinkles, deep folds (such as the nasolabial folds), tear troughs, volume loss and symmetry adjustment, and for brown spots (hyperpigmentation). PRF can be injected like a HA filler or used with microneedling. PRF is also an excellent option for those who cannot receive treatment with a HA filler, or prefer a natural alternative.
ezGEL
Want to take it one step further? EZGel is obtained by mixing the growth factors from the liquid PRF and the albumin of plasma. There is a heating process involved with your blood sample, making a more concentrated version of your PRF and a firmer gel-like substance. The results are more immediate with ezGel vs PRF absorbing over a few days and then waiting to see improvement over time. Let us customize a treatment plan for you!
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a physical, or mechanical form of exfoliation using a specialized professional sterile dermaplaning blade for the removal of built up dead skin cells and vellus hair ("peach fuzz") on the face. Following treatment, the skin will be smoother, softer and better able to absorb the active ingredients in treatment and home skincare products. We use Dermaplane Pro ™ blades and products for this treatment.
Lipotropic Injections
Do you want to boost your energy & help burn fat?
Lipotropic injections contain a solution of nutrients, typically Choline, Inositol, Methionine, Vitamin B12, Levocarnitine, and B complex vitamins. Each of these components play a key role in utilizing fat, distributing energy, and removing toxins from the body. When combined with a healthy diet and exercise, enhanced weight loss can occur.
Additional Benefits
You may notice your appetite is suppressed, that your hair is shinier, and your nails are stronger. Patients have shared with us that their functional limitations due to arthritis are lessened and others have been relieved of some of their PCOS symptoms.
