- Crow’s feet
- Bunny lines
- Gummy smile
- Nose tip lift
- Smoker lines
- Inverted banana smile (“sad face”)

Skin boosters
This is a form of low concentrated hyaluronic acid, which is very similar to the natural hyaluronic acid of your skin. It can address fine wrinkles, moisturize, and provide glow to your skin; and correct mild volume loss defects.
PRP (plasma rich in platelets)
This treatment consists in extracting blood from one of your arm veins and centrifugate it with a special technique to separate plasma with platelets (coagulation cells) from the rest of the blood cells. This plasma with platelets also called PRP, contains many growth factors that can restore the different layers of your skin when injected into it. It can improve scarring from acne, can moisturize and provide glow to your skin and help to improve the thickness of your skin.
Areas commonly injected are: face and neck; useful for dark circles below the eyes

Hair loss treatment (scalp PRP)
This treatment is suitable for male patients starting to lose their hair or noticing hair loss around the hairline; and for females suffering telogen effluvium (periods of heavy hair loss). This treatment works when there is partial hair loss and there are follicles in the scalp still present. If you are completely bald this treatment is not indicated. The treatment consists in the injection of PRP in your scalp, which provides growth factors to your follicle reversing hair loss and restoring follicles in risk of falling.
Microneedling
It’s a procedure that causes a controlled inflammation in your skin through the creation of skin microchannels using a device that contains a tiny filament. This process allows your skin to increase the blood flow in the treated areas and produce growth factors that naturally restore your skin by making collagen and elastin. This treatment enhances the thickness of your skin and can soften scars from acne and from other causes, for example skin injuries. It’s highly suggested to combine this treatment with topical PRP (PRP applied on the skin) to achieve better results.
Double chin lipolysis
Device used: Skinpen, (Health Canada and FDA approved for microneedling)
This treatment consists in injecting deoxycholic acid into the fat tissue under your mandible area. This medication literally dissolves your fat in that area and allows your body to naturally eliminate it through physiological mechanisms (through some cells called macrophages).
The only indication of this treatment is redundance in the submental fat compartment (double chin)
