Neurotoxins
Wrinkles result from a combination of many factors. It’s not just about cellular changes, collagen depletion, or damage caused by free radicals. When you frown or concentrate, the muscles between your brows contract, causing your skin to furrow and fold.
When you squint, the muscles around your eyes contract and cause crow’s feet. Neurotoxins work beneath the skin’s surface and target the underlying muscle activity that causes frown lines and crow’s feet to form over time. Neurotoxins are a prescription medicine that are injected into muscles and used to temporarily improve, reduce or eliminate the look of both moderate to severe frown lines and wrinkles, resulting in a refreshed, rested more youthful look.
What Are Neurotoxins?
FDA-approved and safe, neurotoxins are injectable muscle relaxants. When strategically injected into the body, neurotoxins help relax the muscles that cause wrinkles to form. They are temporary, effective and non-invasive proving to be a trusting solution to maintain a more youthful appearance.
How Long Do Neurotoxins Last?
Each neurotoxin is different, but on average it takes about 1-2 weeks to see your maximum results. These optimal results last for 3-4 months depending on the patient.
Is There Downtime After Neurotoxin Injections?
There is no true downtime required, however you should expect a bit of swelling and slight redness in your treated areas. To prevent excess swelling, we recommend avoiding heavy exercise, salty foods, alcohol, and sleeping face down the same night as your appointment. Icing the area will help to reduce swelling and ease any sensitivity
Dermal fillers
How Long do Fillers Last?
Results vary for each patient depending on how quickly their body processes filler. The average patient can enjoy optimal filler results for 6-12 months and sometimes even longer! For example, Sculptra can last up to 2 years.
Is There Downtime?
Recovery can last from 1-2 weeks and include, minimal swelling and bruising. On the day of your appointment, we recommend sleeping face up and avoiding heavy exercise, salty foods, and alcohol. Icing the area will help to reduce swelling and ease any sensitivity. Arnica Tablets and Gel can help to speed up the Recovery Process.
Can Fillers be Dissolved if I Don’t Like My Results?
Yes! Most fillers can be fully dissolved in 1-2 corrective treatments. If you do not continue filler injections, they will gradually absorb into the body to return to your pre-filler state.

PDO Threads
How do PDO Threads work?
PDO threads are hypodermic needles preloaded with a synthetic monofilament suture containing Polydioxanone (PDO). The PDO suture stimulates neocollagenesis, helping us replace lost collagen! Polydioxanone is FDA-approved and is some of the safest material that can be used in the body. Over a period of 4-6 months, your skin will fully absorb the PDO threads (sutures) without leaving any scar tissue.
What can I expect during the procedure?
PDO threads are inserted into the skin with sterile needles or cannulas. Once inserted, your provider will “zip” up sagging skin onto the barbed threads, providing you with an instant lift! Multiple barbed threads are used on each side of the face for a facelift or neck lift. Smooth threads target fine lines and wrinkles and can help replace lost collagen in many areas of the body. You may feel the threads under your skin until they have dissolved. Depending on the areas treated, the procedure may take 30-60 minutes to contour. There may be slight discomfort during the procedure, but because of the improved techniques and use of lidocaine, clients experience less pain.
- Instant skin lifting
- Skin tightening by contracting fat tissue
- Collagen stimulation, which promotes cellular renewal and improves your skin’s texture, fine lines, and elasticity
PRP (platelet rich plasma)
- Stimulates circulation
- collagen production
- natural way to increase collagen
- performed on all skin types
- Can be used on all areas:
- scalp, face, body including fragile skin

What does the treatment involve?
A small amount of blood will be drawn from you. While the PRP is being prepared in the centrifuge, your skin will be cleansed and prepared for the treatment. The injections take 30-40 minutes , and are only mildly uncomfortable. The procedure is relatively painless, and requires no post-procedure care or time off from daily events. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising fade within one to three days. The PRP is made from your own cells, virtually eliminating the possibility of negative side effects.
