Juvéderm/Restylane/Radiesse/Belotero/RHA
As we age, we lose fat and collagen beneath the skin, and this can cause sagging and wrinkles. Dermal fillers have gained popularity due to their ability to restore a more youthful look safely and instantly. Dermal fillers can help to correct laugh lines, smile lines, smoker’s lines, marionette lines, and hollow cheeks as well as to enhance lips. Treatment with dermal fillers is nearly painless and the effects can last from 6-24 months and in some cases can help stimulate your own collagen production which may produce longer lasting results. *

What is Glutathione?
Glutathione is a naturally occurring peptide produced by every cell in the human body, including immune cells. This powerhouse molecule is made up of three essential amino acids: cysteine, glutamate and glycine.
Glutathione is an extremely powerful antioxidant and key to almost all body functions. When glutathione is depleted, it results in cell death. When glutathione levels are sufficiently high it protects your cells from damage by free radicals, among other benefits.

PRP injection (Face + Neck + Hands)
What is PRP
PRP is a natural product created from your own body. A small amount of blood is drawn from you and placed in a sterile tube that is spun down in a centrifuge to separate the different components of the blood. Red and white blood cells are divided from the platelets and the plasma (the clear fluid). This plasma now contains a higher than normal number of platelets and is called platelet rich plasma, or PRP.
Why Platelets Rejuvenate Skin
Platelets are the cells in the blood that help tissue to heal and grow new cells. The PRP, injected into specific areas of the skin, act as a matrix that promotes your own collagen to grow, regenerates tissue, and thus acts as to naturally smooth and tighten the skin. In this way, PRP softens wrinkles and creating smoother skin texture and tone.
The History of PRP
PRP has a long history of being used in orthopedic medicine, dentistry, and reconstructive surgery, and now its benefits are being applied to other fields of medicine such as dermatology, skin wound healing, and cosmetic facial rejuvenation. Scientific studies dating back 30 years have documented that PRP grows new collagen when injected into the skin, and newer studies show that PRP can soften sun damage and aging skin issues.

How does PRP therapy differ from other injections or fillers
Hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Restylane and Juvederm, are composed of solid material that fills lines and skin folds. These fillers are indicated to soften deeper lines such as the folds around the mouth area, or to plump lips. They usually last from 6-18 months; repeated treatments are required to fill the area again.
PRP stimulates your own collagen to grow for total facial rejuvenation rather than individual wrinkle improvement. PRP is used for volumizing faces that are beginning to look drawn, to plump out cheek indentations, soften under eye hollows, improve the skin tone, tightness, and texture, and fill in areas where hyaluronic acid fillers cannot reach or are not safe to use.
Restylane and Juvederm can be used with PRP as the two types of treatments are meant for different purposes; they supplement each other to give the best final outcome of a more youthful looking face. Restylane and Juvederm fill specific lines and folds; PRP improves overall volume, fullness, and skin tone. PRP acts to improve overall quality, tightness, and texture of the skin rather than filling individual deeper wrinkles.
What to expect during and after the PRP Procedure
A small amount of blood will be drawn from you. While the PRP is being prepared, your skin will be cleansed and prepared for the treatment. The injections take a few moments and are only mildly uncomfortable. The procedure is quick (15 minutes total), relatively painless, and requires no post procedure care or time off from daily events. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising fade within 1-3 days. The PRP is made from your own cells, virtually eliminating the possibility of negative side effects.
Results
The goal of PRP skin rejuvenation therapy is to improve skin tone and texture, tighten skin, soften lines and pores. Results begin to show 3-4 weeks after the treatment session and continue to improve with time. Three treatment sessions are generally recommended, spaced 1-2 months apart, to achieve the best outcome.
PRP therapy can be combined with laser treatments, microdermabrasion, chemical peels, Restylane, Juvederm, BOTOX® Cosmetic, and/or Dysport® to best target a patient’s unique issues and thus achieve the final goal of younger looking skin. Maintenance PRP treatments should be given over time.
Hair Restoration
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy stimulates hair growth through vascularization and angiogenesis and encourages hair follicles to extend the duration of the anagen phase of the growth cycle. PRP therapy for hair loss is shown to increase blood supply to the hair follicle, triggering natural hair growth.
Growth factors found in PRP include several intracellular structures such as glycogen, lysosomes and alpha granules that promote the healing and repair process. These help to reawaken the activity of the hair follicles and promote new hair growth. The use of PRP is scientifically shown to increase hair count, hair thickness, and the growth phase of the hair cycle.
Hair Regrowth Process
PRP for hair regrowth begins with a standard blood draw from the patient’s arm. The tube of blood is put into a centrifuge to separate the red blood cells from the plasma. Then the plasma, rich in platelets, is removed from the tube and injected directly into a patient’s scalp at the hair follicles. Injections are typically spread across a half-inch area of thinning hair to ensure dense coverage.
Treatments are typically performed monthly for the first three to four months, and then every three to six months thereafter. This schedule is optimal for stimulating hair growth factors and stem cells associated with reducing hair fallout. PRP has proven to combat hair loss in more than 70% of cases.
Before-And-After PRP for Hair Regrowth
“I think PRP is a breakthrough because it’s a natural substance that can regrow hair, with virtually no side effects,” says Dr. Jeffrey Rapaport. “It’s also used to speed up the healing process in any procedure that disrupts the epidermis, such as a laser and micro-needling, and by orthopedic surgeons for tendon injuries and bone recreation.”
Laser Spot Removal
Spots on the skin, including age spots, sunspots, freckles, and birthmarks, are a very common skin condition. Many people may wish to remove these spots to create a more even and pleasing skin tone. If you just have a small number of spots, it may be more efficient to just treat the spots instead of trying to treat an entire area. Spots can be removed anywhere on the body.
When to Use Laser Spot Removal
Lasers can be used to treat benign (harmless) pigmented lesions including freckles, sunspots, angiomas, seborrheic keratosis, pigmented nevi, and cafe-au-lait birthmarks. Lasers are not used to treat moles or malignant (cancerous or pre-cancerous) lesions. After treatment, the outline of a spot may still be visible, but the color will be lighter to blend in with the surrounding skin. We usually recommend two laser sessions, the first removes half or more of the pigment and the second removes the rest.
Benefit from Successful Age Spot Removal and More
Using laser spot removal treatments, you’ll be able to remove liver spots, sunspots, and more through a procedure that has provided many patients with the results they want. You don’t have to live with blemishes and other types of imperfections on the skin with this treatment.
The procedure is safe and unlikely to cause any side effects that you might otherwise experience with other inferior treatments. Your skin will look great while helping you avoid the need for repeat treatments over a long period of time. You’ll leave our offices looking and feeling your best with every treatment, whether you’re getting laser spot removal or another procedure that we offer.
Weight Loss Injection
B12 Injections & Lipotropic Shots
This is a more direct approach to taking your vitamin supplements! Online reviews claim that vitamin injections are beneficial and can help you feel rejuvenated. You can choose between pure B12 or a mix of lipotropic amino acids including Choline, L-Carnitine, Vitamin C, and essential B-complex vitamins.
How Does It Work?
With B12 injections, the nutrients go directly into the bloodstream to boost your mood, metabolism, immune system, and overall well-being. The active ingredients also speed up the breaking down of fat in the liver. We recommend doing the injections in the arms or other fatty areas like the thighs, belly, and butt. If you’re on a weight loss journey, you can even make it a regular part of your weekly self-care routine.
Thread Lifting
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 provoking the body’s “healing response” and causing the body to direct large surges of collagen to treated areas. This is important because of the vital role collagen plays in the aging process.
Collagen helps support “growth factors” that greatly influences the condition of our skin. In addition to being used for wound healing, collagen helps to keep our skin strong, voluminous, and supple. As we get older, our bodies gradually produce less and less collagen, which leads to an 80% reduction in skin thickness by about age 70. This loss of volume and strength are a large factor in the creation of excess skin and wrinkles. As the skin grows weaker, it’s no longer able to support the tissues beneath it adequately, meaning that gravity pulls it downwards and stretches it. Infusing the skin of the face with fresh collagen when the signs of skin laxity are still mild can help to both reduce looseness (by thickening and hydrating the skin) and prevent it from getting worse (by strengthening the skin).
In other words, this process provides ongoing and progressive rejuvenation for the facial tissues. Patients who have a thread lift for the purpose of stimulating collagen will notice a gradual improvement in their skin’s tone and firmness. While their threads are in place, the body’s healing response will be constantly activated because the body will want to “heal” the sutured areas and expel the sutures. The body is biologically programmed to react this way when it senses any foreign object present within the dermis. Fortunately, because the threads placed under the skin during a thread lift are so small, the patient will not feel any of this happening. Most people cannot feel their sutures at all once the skin has healed around them.
How does it work?
Using a small hand piece that contains 25 golden microneedles, the microneedles of Secret MFR penetrate under the skin to deliver Radiofrequency at the target location, without harming the outer skin surface. The depth of penetration, intensity, and speed of delivery of energy are controllable for best results.
What are the advantages of Secret MFR over lasers?
Secret MFR delivers energy under the skin, exactly where you need it for rejuvenation and tightening without harming the skin surface (epidermis). Therefore, you expect minimal downtime of few hours compared to the downtime of few days with traditional lasers. In addition, Secret MFR is gentler on your skin (laser is more traumatic), so the possibility of scarring or burn is lesser. Secret MFR, unlike laser, does not interact with melanin, so it is relatively safe for all skin types with minimal side-effects of hyper or hypopigmentation.
What makes SECRET MFR different from other radiofrequency machines?
First, Secret MFR uses bipolar radiofrequency, which gives more focused energy than monopolar radiofrequency, so better results are delivered. Second, Secret MFR uses golden needles, which provide better distribution of energy, and therefore more rejuvenation than regular needles. In addition, Secret MFR uses 2 MHZ that penetrate better on wet and dry skin. In summary, best technical specifications have been provided in Secret MFR.
What is it useful for?
Secret MFR is most effective for skin rejuvenation, skin tightening and pore minimization. Therefore it improves wrinkles and texture elasticity. It is also effective for acne, acne scars, stretch marks and hyperhidrosis.
Do I need to make any preparations before undergoing the procedure?
Unlike lasers, Secret MFR does not require any specific preparations. Simply we clean the skin before doing the session and apply a layer of anesthetic cream for 30 minutes.
What about the downtime, side effects?
It is very simple and safe. Usually, you should expect some redness of the skin for a few hours. Minimal swelling or dryness could occur.
When should I expect to see results?
After the second session, you will see a general improvement in the quality of your skin. More glow, less wrinkles, minimization of pores, more tightness and elasticity are a few positive changes you will notice.
How many sessions are needed?
Usually for skin rejuvenation, you need to do one session per month, and a total of 3-5 sessions. After that, a maintenance program is recommended. For other conditions, please consult your doctor.
Can I combine SECRET MFR with other treatments?
Depending on your skin condition, Secret MFR can be combined with Platelet rich Plasma PRP, stem cells or mesotherapy for better results. Many women call it the miracle facelift, which does not cause pain but has a lot of gain.

Ultraformer III
Ultraformer III treatment in Korea is considered as one of the most effective anti-aging procedures available. Different kinds of skincare and treatments are currently available in the market, but what often makes them ineffective is that they only treat the topmost part of the skin. With the new addition to anti-aging treatments in plastic surgery, you can now achieve that desired youthful glow. Ultraformer III treatment does not only treat on a dermal level but, instead, reaches the deepest layers of the skin to provide the best treatment possible. Read on to know more about Ultraformer III and what it can offer.
Skin Lightening Toning Laser
How Do Lasers Lighten Skin Discoloration?
LASER is an acronym for “Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation”. A laser is a focused beam of light energy that can be used to selectively heat and destroy highly specific targets.
In the case of lightening dark patches on the skin, the targets are known as chromophores, which includes the skin pigment known as melanin. Because melanin absorbs light at a wide range of wavelengths, many different lasers can be used to remove pigmented lesions of the skin. Conservative settings (low energy levels and short pulse durations) should be used during skin lightening laser treatments. Shortening the pulse duration allows for more specific pigment targeting while less heat is created to damage surrounding cells and tissue.
Even with conservative treatment, however, there is a risk of rebound pigmentation and worsening. That’s why lasers are considered second or third line treatment options for skin hyperpigmentation.
What Is Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation?
PIH is a temporary condition that can start with a pimple, rash, scrape, burn, or any other type of skin trauma that causes inflammation. As a result of this inflammation, the skin over-produces a skin pigment called melanin. This extra melanin pigment gets deposited in the skin and is what causes the dark patches to remain long after the initial injury or inflammation has healed.
PIH can often fade on its own, although it may take weeks, months, or even years to do so. Sun exposure without sunscreen or sun protection can make PIH worse by stimulating cells in the skin to produce additional pigment, which is why it’s important to wear sunscreen or avoid sun exposure when you have a skin injury.
Who Gets PIH?
Since PIH occurs after skin injury or inflammation, anyone can get this condition regardless of gender or age. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation can develop in all skin types, but it can be more common and more intense in people who have darker skin tones (Davis).
How Is PIH Treated?
Post-inflammatory pigmentation spots can fade on their own over time. However, this process can take weeks to months, and sometimes years.
Fortunately, there are many treatment options for PIH, including:
Topical creams: Topical creams inhibit the formation of additional melanin and promote new skin growth, accelerating how quickly PIH spots fade.
Sun protection: UV rays cause certain cells in your skin to create additional pigment, making PIH worse. Sun protective measures can improve the effectiveness of treatment as well as speed up how quickly PIH spots fade on their own.
Lasers: Laser treatments use precise, focused beams of light energy to damage pigment-producing cells and fade PIH spots.
Chemical peels: Chemical peels work by ‘peeling off’ the topmost layer of skin, which includes PIH spots.
Everyone’s skin is different, and what works for one person may make PIH worse in another. It’s important to consult with your dermatologist to determine the best treatment for you.
What Is Melasma?
Melasma, also known as ‘chloasma’, is a chronic skin pigmentation disorder that can cause dark patches on the skin, especially on the face and upper lip. This skin condition is thought to affect more than 5 million Americans, especially women with darker skin types.
To better understand this skin condition, let’s first define melasma. The word ‘melasma’ comes from the Greek root melas, which means ‘black’. The same root is in the word ‘melanin’ (skin pigment). Your skin color is based on the amount of melanin present in your cells.
Melasma occurs when your skin produces excessive amounts of melanin. Melasma triggers, whether internal or external, stimulate an increased production of melanin that causes the dark patches on your skin.
Melasma Symptoms
Melasma most commonly occurs on the face, although it can also appear on the arms and back. Melasma on the face typically appears on the forehead, the upper lip, the chin, or cheeks. Melasma may appear as ‘macules’, which resemble freckles, as well as larger dark patches that feature irregular borders.
Melasma symptoms include:
- Symmetrical patches of dark, brown or greyish skin
- Enlarged melanin cells called melanocytes
- An increase in the number of melanin cells
- Abnormal accumulation of elastic tissue
- An increase in blood vessels in the face
Melasma unfortunately cannot be cured, but it can be effectively managed with sun protective measures and professional dermatologic care.
Who Gets Melasma?
Melasma occurs in about 1% of the general population (Ogbechie). However, this number can range between 9-50% in high-risk populations. The difference in prevalence may be attributed to an individual’s degree of sun exposure, geographic location, and genetics.
Women develop melasma at a rate disproportionately higher than men. Some studies have found a 9:1 ratio of female predominance (Hexsel) while others have found differences as high as 39:1 (Vazquez). This disparity is due to the naturally higher levels of estrogen in women’s bodies. Pregnancy and oral contraceptives – both of which increase the amount of estrogen in the body – can trigger melasma as well.
Genetics play a large role in the development of melasma. Women of Hispanic or Indian descent are especially prone. If you have family members who have melasma, you are more likely to develop the condition yourself. Studies have shown that more than half of people with melasma have a family history (Ogbechie).
The increase in collagen results in tighter, firmer skinTrusted Source with fewer wrinkles. Since the high-frequency ultrasound beams are focused on a specific tissue site below the skin’s surface, there’s no damage to the upper layers of the skin and adjacent issue.
Ulthera may not be appropriate for everyone. In general, the procedure works best on people older than 30 with mild-to-moderate skin laxity.
People with photodamaged skin or a high degree of loose skin may need several treatments before seeing results.
Older people with more extensive photo-aging, severe skin laxity, or very saggy skin on the neck aren’t good candidates and may need surgery.
Benefits of high-intensity focused facelifts have seen a major increase in popularity over the last few years. The total number of procedures performed has increased 64.8 percent between 2012 and 2017.
Ulthera
has many aesthetic benefits, including:
- Wrinkle reduction
- Tightening sagging skin on the neck (sometimes called turkey neck) lifting the cheeks, eyebrows, and eyelids
- Enhancing jawline definition
- Tightening of the décolletage
- Smoothing the skin
LDM (Water Drop Lifting)
LDM (Local Dynamic Micro-Massage) is a dual-frequency ultrasound technology that can modulate dynamic processes of production and destruction within connective tissue. It regenerates the skin and improves the immune system by sending energy waves through old skin cells rejuvenate the skin structures. It doesn’t stimulate the skin too much and allows for natural healing on the cellular level, so you can expect almost no downtime or side effects.
LDM is widely used in many dermatological, medical aesthetics and plastic surgery clinics and practices all over the world and has been clinically proven to be stable in treating a variety of skin conditions.
SEMAGLUTIDE
Initially intended to treat type 2 Diabetes, Semaglutide is a potent glycemic stabilizer designed to boost insulin levels while reducing the secretion of the peptide hormone glucagon, stabilizing blood sugar levels. In addition to these functions, the medication can significantly reduce appetite and food cravings, promoting glycemic balance. While Semaglutide is an incredibly effective weight loss treatment, patients see the most significant benefit when combined with a healthy diet and exercise regimen.
How does Semaglutide Work?
An FDA-approved treatment, Semaglutide is a peptidic GLP-1 receptor agonist that interacts with GLP-1, a hormone that is responsible for regulating hunger levels in the body. By interacting with this hormone, Semaglutide induces feelings of satiety after consuming fewer calories than usual. Beyond regulating hunger levels, Semaglutide also stimulates insulin secretion from the pancreas in cases of high blood sugar levels. It also slows down the digestive process by delaying gastric emptying, leading to a reduction in appetite and faster weight loss.
Semaglutide injections are administered weekly. Our Semaglutide injections are infused with L-Carnitine to help boost the patient’s metabolism and increase their energy levels. Patients who follow a healthy lifestyle in addition to their Semaglutide treatments can see as much as a 15% drop in body weight.
What are the benefits of Semaglutide?
Clinical studies have demonstrated that Semaglutide can lead to more significant weight loss than other treatments. This medication can be taken alone or in combination with Phentermine, resulting in better appetite control and more substantial weight loss.
Other benefits of Semaglutide include:
- A NON-ADDICTIVE MEDICATION
- THE MAJORITY OF PATIENTS EXPERIENCE NO SIDE EFFECTS
- A REDUCTION IN APPETITE AND CRAVINGS
- FEELINGS OF SATIETY HAPPEN FASTER
- NOT A STIMULANT
- A TOLERABLE TREATMENT FOR MOST PATIENTS
- SAFE AND EFFECTIVE
- FEELINGS OF SATIETY LAST LONGER
- SIZABLE WEIGHT LOSS
- SLOWER DIGESTION
- A LOWER BMI
How much weight can you lose in a month with semaglutide?
There have been patients who have lost a moderate amount but also patients who have lost over 15 pounds and even over 20 pounds in the first month! Each patient is different, depending
on diet and exercise.
How much does Semaglutide cost?
Our Semaglutide treatments range between $600 - $750 per month.
Tirzepitide
Tirzepatide is used for weight loss, to help lose weight and keep weight off. Similar like Semaglutide Injection, Tirzepatide works for weight loss by decreasing appetite and slowing the movement of food from the stomach into the small intestine, which may make you feel full more quickly and for a longer period of time.
Tirzepatide is a once-weekly injection which approved by FDA-approved for weight loss in adults with obesity or who are overweight and have weight-related medical problems. It helps you to lose weight and maintain weight loss and should be combined with diet and exercise.
Oligio
Korean Thermage
Oligio is a cutting-edge, non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) treatment that works like Thermage.
It delivers targeted RF energy to the deeper layers of the skin then stimulates collagen production, tightening skin and reducing wrinkles, sagging, and uneven texture, improving skin elasticity and firmness.
Oligio also is a top choice in Korea for non-surgical skin rejuvenation, praised for its safety, effectiveness, and natural results.
The results of Oligio can last from *6 to 12 months*, depending on individual factors such as age, skin condition, and lifestyle. Regular maintenance treatments help prolong the effects and maintain youthful skin.
