A little reintroduction for the people already here & the new faces finding me lately 🤍

I’m Matisse 👋🏻 Nurse Practitioner, injector, and owner of Artisse Aesthetic Studio in Austin, TX. My approach to aesthetics is centered around natural-looking results, skin quality, facial balance, and treatments that enhance your features instead of altering them.

I love the subtle stuff. The “you look refreshed but I can’t tell what changed” kind of results. Undetectable injectables, healthy skin, softer aging, and full-face treatments that actually make sense for the person in front of me.

In an industry that can be very trend-driven, I’ll always choose results that look timeless and still like you.

A year of subtle > a day of drastic.

We’ve been working together over the past year to get her wedding-ready, focusing on full-face optimization

We targeted:
• Full-face tox (upper + lower face) to soften fine lines, smooth texture, and relax downward pull through the lower face
• Masseter + traps for facial slimming and tension relief
• Sculptra to improve skin quality and restore subtle volume, especially through the temples and preauricular area
• Strategic filler to refine including: mid-face support, chin + prejowl support, chin shadow, and a very conservative touch under the eyes to brighten the area
• lip filler for hydration and balance

Overall, she just looks refreshed & glowing but still completely like herself.

Rhinoplasty correction with filler ✨

This is one of my favorite nose transformations.

She had a surgical rhinoplasty in 2020, but unfortunately the result was not what she had intended it to be. She ended up with more irregularity through the bridge than before and came to me wondering if I could correct it with filler in 2023.

In her before, you can see the dips along the bridge and the lack of smooth contour into the tip.

In her after, we went in with filler and re-contoured everything- smoothed out those dips, straightened the bridge, and gave the tip a more lifted, supported appearance.

This is exactly where non-surgical rhinoplasty can be really helpful. It doesn’t replace surgery, but it can be a really great option for refinement, even after surgery. (please go to an experienced provider)

I injected her nose in 2023 and cannot believe I never shared her results. Fast forward to this year, the result after 2.5 years still looked amazing and I was able to just fine tune and give her an even more beautiful result.

Cases like this are so rewarding to me. She went in to correct something that bothered her and was left with a result she was really unhappy with. I was able to use my tools, my skillset, and approach to give her a result she was hoping for in the first place.

One year of owning my own med spa.

I’ve been a nurse for 10 years and in aesthetics for 6, so I didn’t go into this blind. But owning a business is a completely different beast. It takes so much of you.

You’re constantly spending money. Like constantly lol Supplies, product, bills, things breaking, things you didn’t even realize you needed. And your credit card is basically never at zero. So that’s freakin stressful. What you think it costs vs what it actually costs are not even close lololol

You’re reinvesting, trying to break even, trying to stay ahead of everything. So if you want to go solo or open your own spa because you think you’re immediately going to be ballllin.. you’re not.

You never clock out. And not just physically but mentally. It’s always on your mind. And you don’t sleep. Add being a full time provider to that.

It is so important to have the right people around you. A good team changes everything. It takes time to build and it’s not always easy, but having people who show up, support you, and grow with you makes a huge difference.

The highs feel really high and lows feel really low. I’ve cried alot. I’ve panicked. I’ve had moments where I genuinely felt like I didn’t know what I was doing. I’ve lost time with my family and friends. And honestly, I’m still figuring a lot of it out as I go. You don’t have to know everything, you just have to be willing to learn and keep going.

This has been one of the hardest and most rewarding things I’ve done. It’s not as glamorous as people think, and it’s definitely not easy but it’s mine, and I’m really proud of that.

Still learning. Still growing. Still figuring it out.

“It’s so good I might have to let you post it”

Tiny tweaks so good that she even wanted you guys to see the result!!

Love the small adjustments you can make with a nonsurgical nose job 😍 it doesn’t have to be drastic to be impactful which is clear in this before and after. Truly one of my favorite areas to treat.

Sculptra from my side of the chair with Holly.

Focusing on skin quality and support in areas where I’ve started to notice a little collagen loss over time - thinner, stretchier skin, more texture, and less structural support.

You’ll see fullness right after. This is expected from the water used to reconstitute (hello water weight 😂). It goes down quickly. I was back to normal within 48 hours, minus a little bit of bruising.

Results aren’t immediate. This is a slow, gradual change over the next few months, which is exactly why we love it. CANNNOT WAIT

Lower face balancing + non-surgical rhinoplasty

For this patient, our primary focus was creating better proportion and symmetry in the lower face while keeping everything conservative and age-appropriate.

Treatment included:

• Chin projection and slight elongation to improve profile and lower third balance
• Chin narrowing to refine lower face shape
• Correction of asymmetry
• Chin shadow support and anterior jawline blending to smooth transitions and create a cohesive lower face
• Non-surgical rhinoplasty to refine the nasal profile

She is a younger patient with naturally beautiful features, so our approach was intentionally conservative. The goal was to improve balance, support structure, and enhance what was already there while preserving youthfulness.
