Is there something about your chin that just doesn’t seem right? Maybe it’s not quite symmetrical. Or, like many people, you may have a receding chin. An augmentation procedure can correct issues with your chin, adding definition to your jawline and bringing your entire face into more harmonious balance. There are two ways we can alter the shape and/or size of your chin – injections or surgery.

When you hear the term “injectables,” you think of dermal fillers and Botox, right? Well, it’s time to expand your thinking because now there is an injectable option that can do even more. Much more. A NovaThreads thread lift can lift, tighten, firm, and smooth your skin, producing more visible, longer-lasting results. And did we mention NovaThreads are injectable? Yes, we did!

A deviated septum is not a laughing matter, no matter how weird the noises you make when you snore. And it is not something to take lightly, because it is more than just an annoyance. Even if your nose doesn’t look “out of joint” from a deviated septum, breathing difficulties can lead to very serious health problems. Nasal valve surgery, called septoplasty, can repair a deviated septum, and that can be a life-changer.

Dermal fillers can do wonders to reduce or virtually eliminate facial lines and wrinkles, add volume to lips and contours, and help smooth the appearance of acne scars. We love these products, and not only for the results they produce. Dermal filler injections are fast, safe, not painful, require no downtime, and can be precisely custom-tailored to our own skin and aesthetic goals. But, alas, they are temporary.

The latest advanced laser tools are so versatile, we can use them to treat several different skin issues. We can improve the appearance of acne and other scars, or remove excess or unwanted hair. And, of course, we can help you achieve younger and healthier-looking facial skin by minimizing lines and wrinkles as well as other imperfections.

One of the least charming side-effects of repeated shaving is ingrown hair. Lucky you, if you have never had this experience. Ingrown hair can occur on your neck, face, underarms, bikini line/pubic area, legs, even your buttocks. And not only from shaving. Waxing and plucking can cause ingrown hairs, too. They can be painful or itchy, somethings with redness and swelling – unsightly as well as irritating.

Microneedling, ProFractional, and Micro Laser Peel are three of our most popular skin rejuvenation treatments. All are different, but all can produce impressive skin improvement results, depending on your specific condition and goals.

Turkey neck. Wattle. Tech neck. We are not kind in our descriptions of neck wrinkles! Happily, there are treatments available to restore our neck to a smoother, more youthful appearance. Whether you are experiencing vertical banding or horizontal lines and wrinkles (or both), it’s possible that Botox or dermal fillers can help, without the need for neck lift surgery.
