Semaglutide was developed as a diabetic medication. It is a peptide which is injected weekly and can have a profound effect for losing weight. It has been FDA approved for weight loss and has only minimal side effects.
For years, Botox has helped so many men and women successfully treat wrinkles and facial creases. As people age, they long for a more youthful appearance. Botox provides this.
Botox blocks signals from the nerves to the muscles. The injected muscle is then not able to contract. This causes the wrinkles to relax and soften. Botox is typically used on the forehead lines, around the eyes, and frown lines. Typically wrinkles are caused as we age, but they are also brought on by sun damage and gravity.
Receiving Botox actually only takes a few short minutes, and anesthesia is not required. You will simply get injected with a fine needle into the specific muscle and feel only mild discomfort.
Our entire staff is dedicated to helping you. We want to ensure that you are happy with your results and that you never feel like you have any unanswered questions.
We are here for you before and after your treatment.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is an innovative medical technique which uses a person’s own powerful growth factors concentrated in the platelet rich portion of their own blood. This very effective technique delivers potent collagen producing factors in a person’s own blood to greatly induce new collagen formation.
Collagen is the fiber in which all tissue is derived. After age 25 years old, collagen synthesis starts to diminish, affecting our skin and other tissues in the body. This leads to the aging effect and how we appear. Cosmetic PRP is an amazing approach to improve a person’s overall appearance in their face. Though this technique is used in orthopedics, cardiology and dentistry, it is an extremely successful technique to enhance the fullness of the face and even the lips. The results are natural, lasting, and there is really no down time.

Under the chin contouring can be accomplished with an injection that dissolves the fat pad that causes the “double chin” effect.
This non-surgical technique may lead to a desired outcome with as little as one to two treatments.
Sclerotherapy is a treatment widely used to effectively eliminate varicose and spider veins. During this procedure, a sclerotherapy solution will be injected directly into the unwanted vein which irritates the lining of the blood vessel and causes it to collapse, clot, and eventually be reabsorbed by the surrounding tissue. This process forces the body to redirect blood to healthier, more capable veins, causing the unwanted veins to fade away. The sclerotherapy procedure is performed with a fine needle and small amounts of sclerosing solution.
The effectiveness of sclerotherapy can be seen within a few weeks of the initial treatment, with some patients occasionally reporting that it took up to a month to see visible results. The number of treatments you need will depend on the severity of your varicose and spider veins, as well as your desired appearance.
Individual treatment plans vary and can be discussed with Dr. David at your consultation. On average, patients receive three to four treatments to clear or improve the condition of their unwanted veins.
What are the side effects of sclerotherapy?
The most common side effects to sclerotherapy include allergic reactions, ankle swelling, vein inflammation or phlebitis, and in rare cases, transient hyperpigmentation. More often than not, the injected veins will become darker before disappearing due to the irritant nature of the sclerosing solution.
When it comes to encouraging thicker and healthier hair production, there is not much out there that performs better than PRP. A person can go from very thin and sparse hair patterns to a much thicker and fuller head of hair with the use of PRP derived from one’s own blood.
Platelet Rich Plasma has been used medically to effectively treat damaged tissue in cardiology, orthopedics, dentistry and cosmetically. However, many people do not realize it can be used to restore injured hair follicles. The many growth factors each one of us harbors in our own blood can be isolated into the platelet rich portion of one’s own blood to initiate tissue regeneration or follicular regeneration.
It is effective and safe. See how PRP hair regeneration can greatly enhance the overall thickness and follicular production to look your best.
