Sorry to spoil it- but collagen cannot be found at the bottom of a jaršŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø.

Collagen starts at the cellular level. You stop producing collagen around the age of 25. After that - you lose about 1% yearly.

So how do we go about generating collagen? Through controlled procedural trauma response.

My top 3 collagen inducing treatments are:

1.) Sculptra- a biostimulator, minimally invasive. We usually recommend a loading dose of one vial per decade of life and then 2 vials- annually. I like to place Sculptra posterior on the face and in the temples. Some studies suggest routine Sculptra use can prevent/ delay the need for a facelift.

2.) Microneedling- like Morpheus 8. This utilizes gold plated sterile needles and radio-frequency to stimulate collagen production with minimal downtime. We usually recommend a series of three sessions spaced once a month for collagen induction and then once annually to keep results going.

3.) Laser therapies! Fractionated, non-fractionated, ablative and nonablative laser therapies are excellent ways to generate collagen. My favorite laser therapies include BBL, MOXI, and erbium treatments. Moxi is our nonablative laser that works more on the surface area. Whereas our Erbium is an ablative laser (a controlled burn) that goes deeper and resets the skin.

There’s no right or wrong pick for collagen banking. We can help guide you- however in making the best choice for you!

Have a wonderful Friday friends!

What are you waiting for?!

Come see us!

Healthy weight loss is a beautiful thing but sometimes losing the weight can show up in places we don’t want to see volume loss (like the face).

This is where I come in!

My beautiful patient’s glow up took only 3 syringes of artfully placed -high quality dermal fillers. I also used a cannula to subcise the ligament around the corners of the mouth to help improve the small jowel.

I blended shadows and restored lost volume. We refer to this as facial harmonization.

But the best part? She still looks like HERSELF- just rested and refreshed!

This is YOUR sign to book a consultation with us & step into the new year looking like the best version of YOU!

Facial trauma in itself is traumatic enough but the scar it can leave behind- often causes a daily reminder of the traumatic event. This not only affects healing both emotionally and physically- but the scars left- can be entirely life changing.

Rest assured though- we have many scar improvement modalities that can render the scar virtually undetectable! We can improve both the patients quality of life and function of the area.

The key is to start treatment early. Aggressive approach to treatment is the best way to avoid an unsightly scar once the scar tissue has formed.

Multiple modalities including topical, laser resurfacing, BBL and sometimes transdermal steroid placement (keloid scarring), microneedling and strict sun avoidance are key components to reducing scar formation.

We treat all facial scars- including those from dog bites, automobile accidents, skin cancer removals, knife wounds, face lifts, etc.

Please give our office a call to schedule your consult so we can help get your life back to feeling normalšŸ«¶šŸ».

✨Under eyes✨

Probably one of the most requested services I get- is how can you fix my under eye area so I don’t look as tired?

Where we live- we don’t have access to a plastic surgeon- so I needed to get creative. My job is to camouflage the imperfections without over correction, blend the hollows, ligament lines and fat pads.

Think of what I do as like an internal concealer.

We have several modalities to correct the eye area:

My favorite treatment technique is using Redensity (a very thin, flexible filler) and a cannula (I have been loving cannulas).

Sometimes supporting the midcheek is also necessary and for that I prefer using Restylane Lyft or Voluma in my practice.

To tighten crepey skin, loose skin or texture abnormalities- I rely on Contour TRL (an ablative erbium laser). This is one and done but does have some downtime.

We also have PRF/ PRF EZ gel- which I’ll be very honest- is my least favorite out of the three. It looks great for a few weeks but doesn’t really last. I’m sure I’ll have other providers disagree but this is my opinion.

I have been trained over many years by different providers and have perfected my own technique. The under eye is a very challenging area to treat but I’m very confident we can improve yours non-surgically with one of our modalities!

If your under eyes are bothering you- please give our office a call and we will have you looking rested and refreshed in no time!

*Filler results are instant however there may be swelling/bruising that can linger for a few weeks.

✨ How Bioidentical Hormone Therapy Impacts Your Skin ✨

I’m about to ruffle some feathers here! Hormones are CRITICAL in not just how we feel but for the health of your skin and hair. You cannot improve your hormone health by eating certain foods. You can SUPPORT however hormone health by following a healthy Whole Foods/animal based diet- but once your body stops producing hormones- no special diet can fix that.

After the age of 35- in a female- the body stops producing progesterone. Progesterone is the hormone that balances estrogen/ testosterone. What happens in women during this phase of progesterone deficiency is heavier periods, missed cycles, weight gain (due to the estrogen dominance), mood swings, and emotional lability. Around age 40-50- the estrogen and testosterone start to wane. You get hot flashes, brittle bones and higher increases in breast cancer.

Hormones play a major role in skin health — and when they’re out of balance, your skin often shows. BHRT can support healthier, more radiant skin šŸ‘‡

🧬 Improves collagen & elasticity
Balanced estrogen helps maintain collagen levels, supporting firmer, smoother skin and slowing visible signs of aging.

šŸ’§ Boosts hydration
Hormonal balance supports the skin barrier, helping reduce dryness, crepey texture, and dullness.

🌿 Supports acne regulation
Imbalanced hormones can trigger excess oil and breakouts. BHRT may help stabilize oil production, leading to clearer skin over time.

✨ Enhances skin tone & texture
Improved circulation and cellular turnover can contribute to a brighter, more even complexion.

😓 Supports repair & recovery
Balanced hormones promote better sleep and stress regulation — both essential for skin healing and rejuvenation.

āš ļø Important to know:
BHRT is highly individualized and works best when carefully monitored by a trained medical provider. Skin improvements often happen gradually and alongside other treatments.

Healthy skin isn’t just about what you put on your face — it’s also about what’s happening within šŸ’«

Happy 2026 friends!!!

A new year means a whole 365 days to go after your dreams!

We have some very exciting trainings and collaborations coming to the SKIN clinic and I cannot wait to share more (real soon I promise!). Trust me when I say you’re going to LOVE it!!

I have also been in school/training for conscious sedation so those very painful laser procedures will be MUCH more comfortable. We have also been outfitting the clinic for safety for these additional comfort measures.

We will be phasing out a few of our services as they don’t particularly line up with what we do here-more on that to come.

We will be back in the office tomorrow 1/2/2026 seeing patients. So rest assured if you have not heard back we will get ahold of you tomorrow.

We have loved our much needed rest but are very excited to get back to seeing our lovely clients!

Cheers to a new year- may this be the year you start/continue to take care of yourself- particularly your skin health.

All the best from our team to you for 2026šŸ«¶šŸ»

It’s Christmas EVE!!!

✨Let the magic begin✨

I hope you all have a WONDERFUL, magical holiday surrounded by the people you love. And for those of us that are missing a critical piece to their family and to their heart- know you’re not alone. Holidays can sometimes be the most difficult days to get through. My advice? Surround yourself with so much love. They would want that.

As for me- I will be taking it all in. This is sadly most likely our last Christmas the girls ā€œbelieveā€ in Santa (dang school ground chatter) so I’ll be treasuring these moments🄹. It goes by too fast.

Merry Christmas from my family to yoursšŸ«¶šŸ»
