What would you like to improve?

Start with your goals.

Choose what you’ve noticed and we’ll point you to the options most often considered for it.

Our approach

Enhance what’s already yours.

Our goal is not to change your face. It is to support the structure, tone and skin quality you already have, so you look rested and like yourself. Treatment is chosen conservatively, explained honestly, and paced over time rather than rushed.

Natural
Refreshed rather than overdone.
Personalized
Treatment selected around individual anatomy, skin and goals.
Technology-forward
Advanced laser, energy-based and regenerative treatment options.

Laser rejuvenation

Different concerns. Different ways to rejuvenate.

  • Fotona Laser Rejuvenation

    A concern-first overview of the targeted Fotona laser treatments — SmoothLase®, SmoothEye®, LipLase® and neck rejuvenation — and how they differ.

    Start with the overview
  • Fotona 4D®

    A multi-step laser treatment that works both inside the mouth and on the skin surface to support collagen and overall facial rejuvenation — without incisions or injectable filler.

  • SmoothLase®

    An intraoral laser approach that treats tissue from inside the mouth, intended to support collagen in the lower face and around the mouth.

    SmoothLase
  • SmoothEye®

    A gentle, non-ablative laser option for the delicate skin around the eyes, where texture and fine lines are often noticed first.

    SmoothEye
  • LipLase®

    A non-invasive laser option for the lips and surrounding tissue, intended to support definition and hydration without injectable volume.

    LipLase

Facial tone + definition

Rejuvenation beyond the skin.

EMFACE® works below the surface, pairing targeted facial muscle stimulation with radiofrequency energy. Much of what reads as facial tone comes from the muscle layer, not the skin alone — and because our practice already studies facial muscles in the context of jaw function, EMFACE fits naturally into how we evaluate the face.

  • A course of sessions spaced over several weeks
  • Periodic maintenance is common

Skin resurfacing

Smoother skin starts beneath the surface.

Fotona Laser Peel & Skin Resurfacing

A surface-level laser treatment intended to support skin clarity, tone and texture by gently removing the outermost layer of skin and encouraging renewal.

Fractional Laser Resurfacing

A deeper, fractionated approach that treats microscopic columns of tissue while leaving surrounding skin intact, often considered for texture, scarring and more established lines.

Clearer skin

Treat what’s active. Improve what’s left behind.

Active Acne

Laser-based treatment intended to address active breakouts by targeting oil glands and the bacteria involved in acne, often used alongside your existing skincare or dermatology plan.

Acne Scars

For skin where breakouts have settled but texture remains, resurfacing and fractional laser options may help soften the appearance of scarring over a series of treatments.

Face to neck

Rejuvenation shouldn’t stop at the jawline.

The neck often shows change earlier than the face, and treating one without the other can look inconsistent. Non-invasive laser options may be considered to support skin tone, texture and firmness through the neck and under the chin.

Regenerative aesthetics

Your own biology, incorporated into your treatment plan.

PRF — Platelet-Rich Fibrin — is prepared from a small sample of your own blood, concentrated to retain platelets and growth factors, with nothing synthetic added. In aesthetics it is used as a supportive adjunct alongside other treatments rather than as a stand-alone answer, and appropriateness is determined case by case.

We discuss what regenerative options can and cannot do before beginning, including the limits of current evidence and how individual response varies.

Not sure what you need?

You don’t have to choose a treatment before you arrive.

Most people come in describing what they’ve noticed, not a procedure name. We listen first, review your health history, look at the face as a whole, and explain which options are reasonable — including the option to do nothing.

Questions

Common questions.

Are these treatments surgical?
No. Most of the facial aesthetic treatments we offer are non-surgical and performed right in our office. Options such as Fotona laser treatments and EMFACE do not require incisions or surgery. We’ll help you choose an approach based on your goals and comfort level.
Do facial aesthetic treatments require needles?
Many do not. Treatments such as Fotona 4D®, SmoothLase®, SmoothEye®, LipLase® and EMFACE® are performed without needles. PRF does require a small blood draw and may involve injections depending on how it is being used.
How soon will I see results?
It depends on the treatment. Some patients notice changes relatively soon, while treatments designed to stimulate collagen and support tissue remodeling tend to produce more gradual changes over the weeks and months that follow. We’ll discuss what to expect before treatment.
How many sessions are typically needed?
The number of sessions varies based on the treatment, your starting point and your goals. Some treatments are performed as a series for best results, while others may require fewer visits followed by periodic maintenance. We’ll recommend a personalized plan at your consultation.
Is there downtime after laser treatment?
It depends on the type and intensity of the laser treatment. Many of our treatments have little to no downtime, while more intensive resurfacing treatments may involve redness, sensitivity, peeling or several days of visible recovery. Treatment intensity can often be selected with your goals and desired downtime in mind.
Does treatment hurt?
Comfort varies by treatment and by person. Many of our non-invasive treatments are well tolerated and may feel like warmth, tingling or muscle contractions. More intensive laser treatments may feel more noticeable. We’ll explain what your specific treatment feels like and discuss comfort options when appropriate.
How long do results last?
Results vary depending on the treatment, your skin, age, lifestyle and natural aging process. Treatments that stimulate collagen or condition facial muscles may continue to evolve after treatment, but they do not stop normal aging. Periodic maintenance may be recommended to help maintain your results.
Can these treatments be combined?
Yes. One advantage of having multiple treatment options is that we can address different concerns in different ways. For example, a treatment plan may combine laser rejuvenation, EMFACE or PRF when appropriate. We recommend combinations based on your individual goals rather than using the same protocol for everyone.
Who is not a candidate for laser or energy-based treatment?
Not every treatment is appropriate for every person. Certain medical conditions, medications, pregnancy, active infections, recent procedures, skin conditions or other factors may affect which treatments are appropriate. We review your health history, skin and goals before recommending treatment.
How is EMFACE different from laser treatment?
They work differently. Fotona laser treatments primarily target the skin and tissues to support collagen remodeling, resurfacing or other specific skin concerns. EMFACE combines radiofrequency with facial muscle stimulation to address both the skin and underlying facial muscles. Depending on your goals, one or both technologies may be recommended.
What is PRF and where does it come from?
PRF stands for platelet-rich fibrin. It is prepared from a small sample of your own blood, which is processed to concentrate platelets and other naturally occurring components within a fibrin matrix. PRF may be incorporated into selected aesthetic treatments to support the body’s natural healing and regenerative processes.
How do I know which treatment is right for me?
You don’t have to know before you come in. Start by telling us what you notice and what you’d like to improve. We’ll evaluate your skin and facial features, talk about your goals and desired downtime, and explain which options—or combination of options—may be the best fit.
