We’ll draw all of our giveaway winners on Monday! Until then, we’re going to spend the weekend with our families. 🤗

Have a great weekend, everyone. ☀️💕

Another great day supporting Voices Ladies for a Cause at their annual golf outing! ☀️⛳️

It was definitely a hot one, but we were grateful to be there supporting an organization that makes such a meaningful difference in our community. Thank you to everyone who helped make the day a success, already looking forward to next year! ⛳️

If the words “pillow face” have kept you from trying filler or injectables… keep reading. 📖

What if I told you there’s a category of injectables designed to stimulate collagen… not just create volume?

✨ Meet biostimulators.

One of my favorites is Radiesse. It’s made with calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres that stimulate your body’s own fibroblasts to produce Type I and Type III collagen over time.

Collagen is the protein that gives your skin its strength, structure, firmness, and elasticity. We naturally lose about 1% of it every year starting in our 20s.

I like to describe Radiesse as fertilizer for your skin. 🌱 Another way I explain it to patients is that it’s like helping your skin go from 1-ply toilet paper to Charmin. 😂 It helps your skin rebuild its natural support system instead of simply replacing what’s been lost.

Who is Radiesse a great option for?
✔️ You’ve noticed your temples, cheeks, jawline, or chin aren’t as defined as they used to be.
✔️ You’ve experienced facial volume loss after significant weight loss (including with GLP-1 medications).
✔️ Your skin feels thinner or less firm.
✔️ You want gradual, natural-looking rejuvenation.
✔️ You want to invest in your skin’s collagen, not just camouflage aging.

Who might not be the best candidate?
If your main goal is fuller lips or treating a very specific area that needs precise volume replacement, another treatment, like a hyaluronic acid filler, may be a better choice.

And while we’re busting myths… 💉

One syringe of filler is only about the size of a blueberry. 🫐

The dramatic, “overfilled” faces you sometimes see are typically not the result of a single syringe. Those results usually reflect multiple syringes over time, individual treatment choices, or a combination of factors. Filler itself isn’t the enemy—it’s all about thoughtful product selection, placement, and moderation.

Every tool has its place. 🔨

The best part? There isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer.

Sometimes the best treatment is neurotoxin. Sometimes it’s filler. Sometimes it’s microneedling, PRP, or medical-grade skincare. And often, it’s a combination.

That’s why every consultation starts with a full-face assessment. We’ll discuss what’s changing, why it’s happening, and which treatment (or combination of treatments) makes the most sense for your goals.

🧠 Medical Monday

Most people think neurotoxin is just for the forehead… but one of my favorite treatments is the mentalis (chin) & DAO (sad face) muscle.

When these muscles are overactive, they can:
✨ Create a pebbled or “orange peel” chin
✨ Push the chin upward
✨ Deepen the crease just below the lower lip
✨ Turn that frown upside down! 🙃
✨ Give the lower face a tense or pouty appearance

A few strategically placed units of neurotoxin can relax the muscle, allowing the chin to smooth out and that crease beneath the lip to soften.

📸 Same expression. Same patient. Different muscle activity.

The best results come from treating the cause of the wrinkle, not just the wrinkle itself.
That’s why every consultation starts with watching how your facial muscles move before creating a treatment plan. 💉
