Microneedling with Radiofrequency

Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that combines traditional microneedling with controlled and targeted radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production within the deep dermis. This dual-action technology uses ultra-fine needles to create precise microchannels in the skin while delivering thermal energy at targeted depths, promoting collagen remodeling and tissue tightening from within.

RF microneedling is highly effective for improving acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, skin laxity, and overall skin texture. By working beneath the surface of the skin to stimulate the skin’s natural healing response and collagen regeneration, RF microneedling helps restore firmer, smoother, and more youthful- appearing skin with minimal downtime.

Don’t confuse Microneedling with RF Microneedling. Regular Microneedling uses the needles to create microchannels to activate a tissue healing response. The benefit is from the physical trauma the needles create. With RF Microneedling, the addition of the Radiofrequency is huge as it also heats the deep collagen to promote collagen tightening.

This treatment is safe for most skin types, even pigmented skin, and is an effective option for patients seeking non-surgical skin tightening and long-term skin quality improvement.

Microneeding Treats

• Acne scars
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Skin laxity and mild skin tightening
• Enlarged pores
• Uneven skin texture
• Stretch marks

CO2 Laser Resurfacing

CO₂laser resurfacing is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that uses fractional carbon dioxide laser technology to precisely remove damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating collagen production in the deeper dermis. By creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, the laser triggers the body’s natural healing response, promoting collagen remodeling and new skin cell growth.

CO₂laser treatment is highly effective for improving surface fine lines wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, uneven skin texture, and skin laxity. As the skin heals, it becomes smoother, firmer, and more evenly toned. Fractional CO₂resurfacing is one of the most popular non-surgical treatments for improving overall skin quality and achieving long-term skin rejuvenation. And it is safe in all skin types!

CO2 Laser Treats

• Acne scars
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Sun damage and age spots
• Uneven skin tone and texture
• Enlarged pores

Elluminate

Elluminate is a very advanced laser treatment that uses multiple wavelengths layered on top of each other. By combining multiple laser wavelengths that target different layers of the skin, multiple issues are addressed, including redness, pigmentation, fine lines, and uneven texture simultaneously. Because of this, it improves overall skin tone, texture, and signs of aging in a single session.

Because of its power, Elluminate also stimulates collagen production while reducing excess pigment and visible redness and blood vessels. This process helps improve skin clarity, refine pores, and restore a smoother, more radiant complexion.

Elluminate is an effective option for patients seeking comprehensive skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime and long-term improvement in overall skin quality.

Elluminate Treats

• Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
• Facial redness and visible vessels
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Enlarged pores
• Uneven skin tone and texture
• Acne scars

Exact RF Treatment

Exact RF is a skin rejuvenation treatment that uses gentle heat to work beneath the surface of the skin and stimulate collagen. It is very directed and can target specific fat pads. This helps flatten the fat pad and tighten and strengthen the skin over time without damaging the top layer.

It’s a great option for improving fine lines, mild skin laxity, enlarged pores, and uneven texture. As skin builds more collagen, it becomes firmer, smoother, and more refined.

Exact RF is safe for most skin types and colors and offers a non-surgical way to tighten the skin and improve overall skin quality with little to no downtime.

Exact RF Treats

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Mild to moderate skin laxity
• Enlarged pores
• Uneven skin texture
• Acne scars
• Crepey skin

Treatment Areas

• Face (jawline, jowls)
• Under-eye area/Festoons
• Neck
• Décolleté (chest)
• Abdomen
• Arms (upper arms/“crepey” skin)
• Knees

Exosome Therapy – Aesthetic Treatments

Exosomes are microscopic bubbles carrying billions of growth factors, proteins, and signaling molecules that play important roles in cell communication and tissue regeneration. In aesthetics, exosome therapy is used to enhance skin rejuvenation by delivering growth factors and molecules that promote collagen production, reduce inflammation, and accelerate the skin’s natural healing processes.

Exosome therapy is a powerful treatment that optimizes healing, and supports long-term skin health, making it an excellent option for patients seeking advanced, non-surgical skin rejuvenation.

When applied after treatments like microneedling, peels or laser, exosomes deliver powerful ingredients that help stimulate collagen, calm inflammation, and speed up recovery and enhances the results of other treatments,. This means your skin heals faster and looks smoother, brighter, and healthier.

Exosome therapy is especially helpful for improving fine lines, acne scars, redness, and overall skin texture. It’s a great add-on treatment for anyone looking to augment their results and support long-term skin health without surgery.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Dermal Fillers

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a substance naturally found in all cells in skin that absorbs and holds water molecules, acting as a sponge in the skin. HA helps keep skin plump, hydrated, smooth, and full. With aging, we gradually lose HA resulting in loss of skin’s natural volume, leading to lines, wrinkles, sagging and sinkage.

At our practice, we take a conservative, personalized approach, focusing on balance and maintaining natural facial proportions with subtle improvements rather than overfilling. The goal is to help you look refreshed and natural, not “done.”
In addition to restoring volume, HA fillers also attract water, helping the skin look more hydrated and healthier. Results are visible right away and can be adjusted over time, allowing for gradual, natural-looking enhancement while maintaining natural looking facial movements and expression.

HA Fillers Treat

• Volume loss in the cheeks and midface
• Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
• Lip enhancement and definition
• Jawline and chin contouring

• Chin and jawline
• Nasolabial folds

Neurotoxins (Botulinum Toxin)

Neurotoxins, such as Botox, are injectable treatments that relax the muscles that cause lines and wrinkles caused by years of making facial expressions. By minimizing these movements, they help smooth existing lines and prevent them from becoming deeper over time.

They are most commonly used in areas like the forehead, frown lines, and crow’s feet. When done with a careful, conservative approach, the goal is to soften lines while maintaining natural movements and expressions, resulting in a refreshed, not frozen, look.

Neurotoxins are a safe, effective, and non-surgical option for both preventing and treating fine lines. Results are subtle, customized, and designed to keep your face looking balanced and natural.

• Frown lines (glabellar lines)
• Crow’s feet

• Softens dynamic lines and wrinkles
• Prevents deeper wrinkle formation
• Quick, in-office treatment with minimal downtime
• Natural-looking, customizable results
• Supports a refreshed, rested appearance

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

PRP is a natural treatment that uses a patient’s own blood to help rejuvenate and repair your skin. PRP works by boosting your skin’s ability to heal and regenerate, helping improve texture, tone, and overall skin quality. It’s commonly used to soften fine lines, improve acne scars, brighten the under-eye area, and even support hair growth.

A small sample of blood is taken and processed to separate out the parts that are rich in healing and growth factors. This growth factor rich plasma is then applied on top of or injected into the skin.
Because PRP comes from your own body, it’s a very natural option with minimal risk of reaction. It’s often paired with treatments like microneedling or lasers to enhance results and speed up healing.
