Unwanted hair growth is something many of us deal with. The days of stubborn shaving, razor bumps, and ingrown hairs are over thanks to laser hair removal, a simple treatment that will save you time, money, and stress when it comes to hair growth. Laser hair removal is a convenient and fast treatment (averaging around 30 minutes per session) that utilizes a concentrated beam of light laser to remove hair and inhibit future hair growth in the area. The treatment is largely pain-free; however, clients will need to keep the treated area(s) out of the sun for a week following treatment.

Botox and Fillers
Botox and fillers are a fantastic option for those looking to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines or add some plump to your lips. Using a very thin needle, medical professionals administer the treatment into the desired areas of the face. Typically, injectables and dermal fillers involve minimal discomfort, and most clients can return to their day-to-day responsibilities immediately after treatment. In all stages of your beauty journey, your aesthetic consultant can detail each offering including effective wrinkle relaxers like Botox , FDA-approved lip fillers, and more to ensure your choice aligns best with your goals.
Ultherapy
Usually starting around age 25 when our bodies begin to produce less collagen, we notice changes, or sagging, in our skin. Ultherapy skin lifting is the FDA- cleared solution you need to build that collagen bank back up to restore plump, tight and youthful looking skin. Ultherapy uses safe ultrasound energy to naturally initiate the production of new collagen deep within your skin. You’ll see skin tightening results after the first treatment and continued improvement for up to six months. The team of trusted advisors can put together a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs, setting you up for your perfect skin.
IPL Photofacial
IPL Photofacial uses pulses of light energy to fade age spots, sunspots and freckles, while evening out skin tone, redness and hyperpigmentation. This FDA-approved treatment targets and gently heats the red and brown areas of your skin impacted by sun damage, ultimately causing them to flake off and unveil clearer, brighter skin for a makeup look without the makeup. For those interested in anti-aging results for your skin, IPL Photofacial provides a quick, effective, and affordable method to achieve radiant looking skin.
CoolSculpting
We’re all on a journey toward looking and feeling our best. Many people, however, wrestle with stubborn fat even after exhausting all efforts to work it out. Enter CoolSculpting , a noninvasive, FDA-cleared treatment that utilizes patented, controlled cooling technology to eliminate up to 25% of fat cells in the desired area without the need for surgery. CoolSculpting targets problem areas beneath the skin to freeze, kill and ultimately destroy only the fat cells from the body, producing lasting results that you will love. After just two sessions, clients will see a 73% greater fat reduction versus just one treatment.
CoolTone
It’s like 20,000 sit ups in 30 minutes. The abdomen, buttocks and thighs can be targeted with CoolTone treatments that produce tighter and firmer results that will last. Under a process called magnetic muscle stimulation (MMS) initiated by CoolTone technology, muscles undergo involuntary contractions, therefore strengthening the muscles within the treatment area. This process feels similar to that of an odd muscle spasm or twitch, however for the large majority of patients it is not at all painful. Results are typically noticeable after four weeks of treatment. CoolTone is FDA-cleared and backed by science, designed for anyone looking to become more toned without any recovery time.
