Considering thread treatments?
Thread treatments are a minimally invasive option that can provide support to various facial areas and encourage natural collagen production over time.
It’s a beautiful option for those wanting a refreshed look without major downtime, and our skilled providers personalize every treatment to your features and goals.
At Whistler Medical Aesthetics, “no” isn’t a rejection.
We take a 360° approach to every treatment plan, starting with understanding your goals, lifestyle, and options. Sometimes that means recommending alternatives and yes, occasionally saying “not this time.”
Why? Because you deserve thoughtful guidance, safe practices, and individualized planning to support informed decisions about aesthetic care.
