1. 2. & 3. Ways to kiss lip lines goodbye!
Natural aging, sun damage, and smoking all take a toll on the perfect pout you had when you were young! Thinning lips and vertical lip lines can make you look older than you really are.
Here are a couple of options to make your lips look so good you’ll want to kiss yourself:
- Injectable fillers with hyaluronic acid like Juvederm and Restylane can be used to plump up lines and wrinkles and restore volume to the lips.
- A neuromodulator lip flip is a subtle upper lip enhancement for those not quite ready for fillers yet. Just a small amount of Botox, Xeomin, or Dysport is injected around the upper lip to relax its action, causing it to roll slightly upwards, creating a fuller and more defined look.
- Topical products containing anti-aging ingredients like hyaluronic acid, neuro-calming peptides, and retinoids can have a smoothing effect on the appearance of lip lines. We carry anti-aging products for both Revision Skincare and skinbetter science.
Whether you’re ready for injectables or prefer a topical solution, we’ve got you covered.
4. Dermaplaning gives you smoother, brighter skin … in one session!
Is your face as smooooooth as a baby’s … well, you know? No? It can be!
Environmental factors, acne scars, and aging are just a few of the conditions that can leave your skin feeling a bit rough.
If you feel your skin isn't as smooth as it could be … dermaplaning is the perfect service for you!
When dermaplaning, an aestetician uses a medical-grade surgical blade in light, feathery strokes to gently rid the epidermis of dead skin cells and superficial vellus (peach fuzz) hair. This leaves your face smoother and brighter.
Dermaplaning is QUICK and completely pain free! And there’s no need to worry about your hair growing back darker! It’s a follicle thing … it will grow back the same diameter and color it originally was.
If you haven’t tried dermaplaning yet, you should. It’s an incredible service that instantly delivers smoother, brighter skin at an affordable price.

8. Schedule your Annual Skin Cancer Screening
One in five Americans will be diagnosed with skin cancer in their lifetime. But early detection is key to effective treatment and survival.
In addition to regular self-exams, it’s important to schedule regular skin cancer screenings with your dermatologist.
During the appointment, the dermatologist will use professional tools to get a closer look at certain areas of the skin. If suspicious moles or spots are found, then additional steps can be taken quickly to determine whether they are cancerous or benign.
