#1: LASER FACIAL Treatments in winter
The winter season is the perfect time to schedule a laser treatment! With several laser options, you can fight sun damage, remove pigment, enhance collagen, and remove unwanted hair with one of our talented providers.
Laser facials can leave your skin more vulnerable and sensitive to sun exposure, so the winter months are a great time to book this appointment. You’ll still need to lather on the sunscreen for protection, but your skin will be far more protected to promote a fast recovery.
We offer three levels of treatment from mild to deep peels that can be used on the face, neck, and body.
- Level I Laser Peel — This minimally invasive laser peel buffs the skin, leaving it refreshed; with little to no social downtime.
- Level II Laser Peel — A deeper peel with very minimal social downtime; patients experience a little redness for two or three days.
- Level III Laser Peel — This level of peel goes deeper to treat fine lines and wrinkles; expect four to five days of social downtime.
Moxi Laser Treatments

The Sciton Moxi® Laser is a cutting-edge, non-ablative laser designed to address the early signs of aging and pigmentation. The Moxi laser creates tiny superficial punctures in the skin, triggering your skin’s natural repair process.
HALO Laser Treatments
The Sciton HALO Laser is a hybrid-fractional laser that combines non-ablative and ablative technologies to deliver comprehensive skin rejuvenation. HALO effectively targets various skin concerns, offering results that penetrate deep into the tissue for optimal results.
Broadband light laser therapies
Broadband Light (BBL) Laser Therapies effectively target the signs of aging and sun damage. The BBL laser can maintain the skin’s supple properties, protecting it from the signs of aging.
Laser hair removal & reduction
Laser Hair Removal/Reduction eliminates the hair follicle eliminating the need for shaving.
#2: Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is an exfoliating treatment that removes the top layer of vellus hair on your face and uses deep moisturizing products that combat dryness to leave your skin better able to absorb hydration. The “peach fuzz” on your face can hold onto oil and grime and lead to clogged pores and a dull complexion, this treatment will remove the dead skin cells to promote new skin growth and a brighter, smoother complexion!
Harsh winter weather can leave your skin dry and flaky, making now the perfect time to try our Dermaplaning Facial! This treatment helps combat the onset of dryness and get your skin back to glowing.
#3: CHEMICAL PEELs
Chemical Peels are one of the most effective ways to brighten your complexion, reduce fine lines, improve sun-damaged and aging skin, and minimize scars, sunspots and more.
Because these peels are medical treatments, we require a consultation with one of our licensed aestheticians to help evaluate your skin type and determine which chemical peel is best suited for your needs.
A chemical Peel removes the top layer of your skin, leaving the new layer underneath very vulnerable to sun damage, making the winter the ideal time to receive treatment. Because we’re spending more time inside during these colder months, now is a great time to book that Chemical Peel and give your skin ample time for recovery!
#4: SkinPen

SkinPen stimulates your skin’s natural ability to repair itself and produce new collagen. SkinPen creates micro-injuries, after which the skin begins to dissolve tissue damage and replace it with new cells.
SkinPen is a perfect year-round treatment with little to no downtime.
#5: Diamond Glow
Diamond Glow treatments keep your skin hydrated and glowing year-round! Hydration during the winter months is especially important to not only moisturize the skin but can help reduce the signs of aging.
This 3-part treatment exfoliates, extracts, and infuses product into the skin.
In combination with a dermaplane, this treatment removes dead skin cells and vellus hair, for better penetration of products for increased hydration, keeps you glowing all year long!
