Even though I grew up in Marin County, I only recently moved back to Northern California. I met my husband of 30 years at Brigham Young University and we spent the next 22 years traveling the world with our four children while he served as an orthopedic surgeon in the U.S. Army. Before venturing into aesthetic medicine, I focused on women's health. I began my nursing career in labor and delivery and have worked in nearly every facet of women's and children's health since.
Aesthetic medicine has always been interesting to me. It combines the science of medicine with the vision and creativity of an art form. I received my aesthetic medical training at the renown National Laser Institute in Scottsdale, Arizona. Along with theoretical and practical education, I received hands-on experience with advanced techniques of administrating facial fillers, neurotoxins (botox)., and microneedling techniques
When it comes to botox and facial fillers, I am a believer in the less is more approach. My goal is to enhance a patient's features, not change the way they look. Lip augmentation has been made popular by social media influencers and as a result, young beautiful girls are getting too much filler injected into their lips. A little lip filler can help to shape and improve fullness, but often an inexperienced practitioner, will overfill this area causing an unnatural appearance.
The aging process causes us to lose volume in the mid-face which can cause sagging. Decreased collagen production can cause wrinkling.
Cheekbones can be restored to their youthful volume. Nasolabial folds (parenthesis lines) can be softened as well as marionette lines. Jawlines sculpted and lip volume increased - All with a variety of different facial fillers.
Wrinkles can be smoothed with strategic placement of Botox or Jeuveau to relax muscles.
Full lips can be achieved by fillers, a lip flip, or PDO threads. Sometimes a combination of treatments may be used to achieve your desired look.
Micro droplet filler injection or cannula technique available for a natural look. Dental block, numbing cream and ice provided for comfort.
Facial fillers can be used to soften lines around the nose and mouth, called the nasolabial folds. Fillers can also be used to decrease the look of jowls by adding lost volume to the cheekbones. Marionette lines can be treated as well as the jawline.
Neurotoxins, whether it is Botox or the new Jeuveau all act to relax the muscles under the skin that causes the wrinkling to take place. Again, this is an area where I tend to be conservative. Over administration of neurotoxins can cause a frozen appearance that does not look natural.
If you want to minimize your fine lines and wrinkles without surgery, then PRP facial treatment may be for you. Platelet-rich plasma facial uses human growth factors extracted from your blood (hence the name: “Vampire Facial” to enhance collagen production and stimulate your body’s natural repair and rejuvenation processes.
That means you can get natural looking results without the need for a costly, invasive surgical procedure. So when you think you’ve tried everything and you’re wondering: “What’s the best facial?”, then consider the outstanding results we help patients achieve with PRP
Put simply, the PRP facial is an anti-aging procedure that uses your own blood to help promote the healthy activity of your skin cells. Sounds simple!
We combine PRP with microneedling to enhance the results with your own platelet-rich plasma – derived from the serum portion of the blood. These platelets contain growth factors which help to stimulate rapid cell replenishment and rejuvenation of healthy cells.
While dermatologists have only recently started using PRP facials, orthopaedic surgeons have injected PRP to heal injured joints such as ankles, knees and elbows for many years. It’s a tried and tested medical procedure with a long history of excellent results.
Microneedling also called collagen induction therapy, involves the use of a tool that has tiny needles which make little pricks in the top layer of the skin. Collagen induction treatments, which are considered minimally invasive, and require little downtime..
Why would anyone want to have tiny needles pricking their skin? Well, this seemingly odd practice is known to trigger the body’s natural wound healing process, which can help to encourage collagen production, scar healing and an overall brighter complexion.
At first, microneedling was used for general skin rejuvenation, but now it is being used to increase collagen production and to target a wide variety of common skin concerns that can be difficult to improve — including wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, and even hair loss.
Each Collagen induction facial will be 5 step process. Starting with a CO2 treatment to prepare the skin for optimal absorption. Topical anesthetic to numb the skin.. Microneedling with the appropriate serum. LED therapy to stimulate deep collagen production and finally a calming mask to refresh and calm the sjin.

The active ingredient in KYBELLA® is synthetic deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, KYBELLA® destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, so further treatment is not expected once you reach your desired look.
Treatment can only be administered by a KYBELLA®-trained healthcare specialist. At each treatment, you will receive multiple small injections under your chin, and the injection process takes about 15 to 20 minutes. The exact number of injections will depend on the amount of fat you have under your chin and your desired profile.
What is a thread lift? A thread lift is a type of procedure wherein temporary sutures are used to produce a subtle but visible "lift" in the skin. Instead of removing the patient's loose facial skin surgically, the cosmetic surgeon simply suspends it by stitching up portions of it. This has the effect of pulling the skin back slightly and therefore lifting and tightening the face. In addition to being ideal for lifting the skin, threads combat aging in another way: by stimulating collagen.
NovaThreads have been approved by the FDA for the purpose of lifting facial tissue. All Thread Lifts are performed by our board certified surgeon.
All Thread Lifts . require a consultation with the Surgeon before scheduling
