Botox- Repeat Appointment

Add a small amount of Botox to your upper lip to allow the muscles to relax and “flip” your lip upward. This is a subtle way to create a fuller look, and a less gummy smile. 

Lip Flip

Neuromodulators such as Botox can be injected into different areas of the face to produce localized muscle relaxation. When injected into the large muscle in the jaw called the masseter, Botox can help with jaw clenching, teeth grinding, tension headaches and jaw pain. Masseter Botox can also provide slimming of the face by reducing the size of the muscle over time. Typical dosing for masseter/TMJ injections is 15-30 units per side, at $8 per unit. 

Masseter/TMJ Injections

Neuromodulators (Botox, Nuceiva, Xeomin)

PCDC or phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholate are natural molecules within the body. They work by disrupting the membranes of fat cells, causing the fat cells to permanently break down and metabolize.

PCDC can be injected into specific areas such as under the chin (submental fat/“double chin”), bra/underarm fat, back fat/bra bulge, “love handles”, lower abdomen, knees and outer thighs. 

Please note that pricing is subject to change based on the number of areas being treated. It is also important to note that PCDC injections can also require multiple sessions to achieve client goals.

Beauty Basics spray-on tanning sessions are sprayed on using a tanning gun by a technician. This service is for the entire body.

The tanning solution has 3 components: Bronzer, DHA and Aloe Vera.

The Bronzer is a water-soluble dye designed to produce a temporary tan. The brown bronzer will wash off in the shower or bath but will not effect your overall tan.

The DHA produces a long-term tan. When applied to the skin, DHA reacts with proteins in the skin’s superficial layer to form a golden brown color. It begins to darken 2 to 3 hours after tanning. It reaches it’s peak color within 24 hours. The DHA tan will begin to fade after a week, just like a tan from the sun.

The Aloe Vera helps to carry the DHA deeper into the skin and promotes softer, smoother skin. The tanning solution contains more than 65% stabilized Aloe Vera liquid. Aloe Vera is a natural moisturizer that helps the skin draw moisture

Piercing

Dermapen4 microneedling is the breakthrough of the decade utilizing the most advanced needling cartridge innovation to vertically pierce the skin. DP4 glides over the skin creating millions of fine fractional channels up to 104% faster than other microneedling devices! These channels can carry up to 80% more of topical nutrients deeper into the skin, and in turn our body’s response triggers a natural process of repair. This results in an increased production of collagen and elastin, resurfacing, retexturizing and overall skin renewal anywhere on the body! 

In combination with the DP4 MG mesotherapy serum collection, microneedling can be used to treat:
* Acne or acne scarring
* Fine lines / anti-aging
* Hyperpigmentation 
* Hypopigmentation 
* Stretch marks
* Alopecia / hair loss 
* Rosacea 
* Large pores
* Uneven skin tones / skin texture
* Sun damage

Vivier medical grade chemical peels work by removing the outermost layer of skin, causing immediate gratification by diminishing imperfections. Peels effectively combat dullness, blotchiness, age and sun spots, hyperpigmentation, reduce pore size and improve the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Peels can be used as a stand alone treatment or as a part of a regimented plan for more dramatic effect when combined with other treatments or procedures.

The JESSNER peel is a more intense peel and is otherwise known as the “Hollywood peel”. This peel is especially effective for skin concerns such as hyperpigmentation, sun damage, acne and scarring.
