💫 The Boston Coring Lift™ by Dr. Shanthala 💫

Susan waited 74 years before trying her first cosmetic treatment. She researched carefully, even considered CO₂ laser with other specialists, but ultimately she chose me — and the Boston Coring Lift™.

From her very first consultation, she experienced something unique: I personally perform every consultation, every treatment, and every follow-up. For 11 years, this is all I’ve devoted myself to. I see only a few patients each day so I can give them my complete attention.

After her first Boston Coring Lift™, Susan was amazed. Twelve months later, she returned for her second treatment and recorded a heartfelt testimonial. Her words? She felt “over the moon.”

In my 30 years of medicine, with Harvard and Yale training, I’ve worked with every major non-surgical option: fractional lasers, non-ablative lasers, CO₂, RF microneedling, PDO thread lift, Vampire Facelift, liquid facelift, non-surgical facelifts, and my own signature lifts. Each has its value. But if there is one treatment that consistently comes closest to a surgical facelift without surgery, it is the Boston Coring Lift™ with UltraClear.

✨ The credit belongs to three things:
1️⃣ Patients like Susan, who trust me.
2️⃣ The protocols I’ve refined — my own “secret sauce” that makes this treatment truly unique.
3️⃣ And the UltraClear Laser, which powers the Boston Coring Lift™ and has redefined what’s possible in non-surgical rejuvenation.

This year we even celebrated the first UltraClear Laser Open House in Massachusetts, sharing this breakthrough with patients and colleagues.

Susan’s story is one of many. I now have 50+ verified reviews on RealSelf and Google (99% positive) and hundreds of before-and-after transformations that speak for themselves.

It was my privilege to share my experience on exosomes for acne scars—as an adjunct to energy-based procedures—at the World Congress in Paris.I first heard about exosomes in 2018 and began using them in 2019. Since then, I have treated thousands of patients with one focus: wound healing. Every procedure—lasers, microneedling, resurfacing, tightening—creates a controlled injury, and outcomes depend on how well the body heals.Here is what many forget: not all extracellular vesicles are exosomes, and not all exosomes are the same. They are a classification of extracellular vesicles, but they are highly heterogeneous:• By size: typically 30–130 nm• By source: platelet, adipose, bone marrow, umbilical cord, placenta• By cargo: proteins, RNAs, lipids vary depending on origin and processingThis heterogeneity matters. It explains why exosomes are not interchangeable and why rigorous sourcing and standards are essential.What is consistent across high-quality preparations is their benefit in wound healing and immunomodulation:• Potent anti-inflammatory effect• Support for balanced immune response• Enhanced tissue repair• Reduced risk of PIH, post-laser erythema, and hypertrophic scarringThe science is vast and still evolving. To even begin to understand exosomes requires reading hundreds of studies—not just one article or one post. Large randomized trials are still limited, but with global use it is only a matter of time.Exosomes are not hype. They are a powerful adjunct to healing, and they will remain an important part of the future of regenerative medicine.

“What if skincare could transform both your skin and the way you feel in your own skin?” Over the years I’ve seen countless skincare lines — from luxury to medical grade. But nothing has impressed me the way XOMD has. This isn’t just another serum or moisturizer. It is the first clinically validated Moodceutical™ — a new category of science-driven skincare designed to elevate skin health and emotional wellness.🔬 The Science Behind ItXOMD is built on rigorous, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies showing that its formulations can actually stimulate oxytocin release — the neurochemical linked to connection, attraction, and confidence. The result isn’t only visible glow; it’s a measurable improvement in how people perceive themselves and interact socially.👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️ The Minds Behind ItThis innovation comes from Dr. Sabrina Fabi and Dr. Steven Diané, two of the most published, most respected figures in aesthetic medicine worldwide. Their research into the science of attraction and confidence is unmatched, and XOMD represents years of effort to bridge dermatology, psychology, and human connection.✨ What Makes It DifferentMost products promise smoother texture or brighter tone. XOMD delivers those visible results — but goes further. Patients describe feeling more attractive, more energetic, more confident. Friends and loved ones notice not just a glow, but a change in vitality. This is why it is considered a whole new category, not just skincare.🌿 The CollectionThe line is intentionally simple:– Detox Cleanser– Intoxicate Serum– Rose MoisturizerTogether they represent the first clinically proven system that treats the skin and uplifts the mood.📍 How to Experience ItI carry XOMD in my office for those who want to see it firsthand. But if you prefer, you can also purchase it online directly through their website. Either way, this is one line I believe everyone should experience — because it redefines what “skincare” even means.

“Nearly a year later, this is proof that the right lasers and injectables can keep you looking 100% yourself — naturally.”
Almost 10 months after a carefully planned combination of UltraClear® laser, precise filler placement, and Botox®, this patient still looks entirely like herself — simply softer, smoother, and more rested.

Many people fear that injectables or lasers will make them look “different” or “unnatural.” In reality, when you choose a skilled, science-based provider who understands facial harmony, the goal is not to change who you are — it’s to preserve your essence while addressing what time has altered.

Grateful to this patient for allowing me to share her transformation. Every decision — from treatment choice to technique — was made with precision, artistry, and the singular aim of delivering the best, most natural result possible.
