7 Aesthetic Treatments that Actually Work

Start looking into aesthetic treatments and you are instantly flooded with options. It’s difficult to know which treatments to pursue and spend your hard-earned money on.

We know it’s tougher to be a consumer now more than ever before so we wanted to put together this list of 7 aesthetic treatments that actually work. We’ve also included before and after images of our real patients. (with their permission, of course!)

At Skin by Lovely, we specialize in only the most effective, FDA-approved medical aesthetic treatments. If you’re looking for real results, these treatments deliver.

1. Botox Brow Lift

If you want a brighter and more lifted eye area, ask your Injection Specialist about a Botox brow lift! Wrinkle relaxers when used strategically around the eye slightly lift the forehead muscles resulting in a natural-looking, non-surgical brow lift. Brow lifts can also be achieved by using Jeuveau, Dysport and Xeomin.

Appointments take less than 30 minutes and results last three to four months.

2. Dermal filler to Build and Contour the Jawline

Dermal fillers such as Radiesse, Juvederm Voluma, and Restylane Lyft can be used to build structure along the jawline. The jawline can also be defined with dermal filler to create a distinct edge where the jaw meets the ear.

This non-surgical procedure takes under an hour and results last anywhere from one to two years.

3. Microneedling to Reduce Scarring

Do you have facial scarring? Whether you have old acne scars, scarring from an injury, or biopsy scarring— microneedling can help!

Microneedling is a treatment that creates micro-injuries to the skin. This process encourages the production of collagen and elastin which reduces the appearance of scar tissue.

Multiple treatments may be required to obtain maximum results, but some patients experience their desired outcome after just one treatment.

Treatments are usually spaced four to six weeks apart, and your Injection Specialist will tailor a maintenance regimen if needed.

4. Dermal Filler to Reduce Sagging Jowls

As we age, we gradually lose facial volume and gravity inevitably takes its toll. Our lower face is usually where this is seen most and “jowls” sometimes appear.

By injecting a hyaluronic acid based dermal filler such as Restylane Lyft, Juvederm Voluma, or Juvederm Ultra Plus XC along the cheekbones and in the temples, Skin by Lovely Injection Specialists use an anchoring technique that lifts the entire lower face.

The result is diminished jowling and less severe nasolabial folds.

This treatment can last anywhere from one to two years depending on the patient.  Watch as Skin by Lovey Co-Founder and Clinical Director Lovely Laban MSN GNP-C performs a non-surgical cheek and temple dermal filler procedure.

5. Botox to Slim the Masseter Muscles

The masseters are the muscles located at the back of the jawline. They help us talk and chew, but they can sometimes be overworked or “bulky” in appearance. In addition to being visually noticeable, this can also result in TMJ pain and teeth grinding.

If you have oversized masseters, wrinkle relaxers can help relax these muscles resulting in a slimmer appearance.

This treatment takes under half an hour and results can last up to a year.
