Dermal fillers are used to restore volume and fullness in the face, enhance certain facial features, and reduce the signs of aging. They work by filling in wrinkles, fine lines, and deep creases, improving other imperfections like scars, or enhancing the lips or cheeks. The most common types of dermal fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, a substance that’s naturally produced by our bodies and is notably present in our skin, connective tissue, and eyes. Its primary function is to retain water to keep our tissues well lubricated. Other filler types include poly-L-lactic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA).
1. Hyaluronic Acid Fillers: When injected, these fillers plump up the skin, smoothing out wrinkles and adding volume where it’s needed. The effects are temporary because our bodies gradually break down the hyaluronic acid, These fillers usually last 6-18 months (Juvederm Ultra, Voluma, Vollure, Volbella, Restylane, Kysse, Revanesse Versa, Belotero)
2. Calcium Hydroxylapatite Fillers: This substance is found naturally in human bones and is often used for moderate-to-severe creases such as marionette lines, nasolabial folds, and frown lines. It can also be used to enhance fullness of the cheeks and other facial contours. (Radiesse)

Laser hair removal in Goodlettsville, TN uses a special device that emits strong beams of light. This light is absorbed by the dark color in our hair, which is called melanin. When the light is absorbed by the hair, it turns into heat, and this heat damages the part of the hair that makes it grow. By damaging the hair in this way, the laser prevents it from growing back. The laser only works on hair that is actively growing, so you need multiple sessions to treat all the hair. Laser hair removal is a safe and effective way to reduce unwanted hair on your body or face, but the results can vary depending on your hair color and skin type.
Not all laser hair removal lasers are the same!

Asclera is used for the treatment of varicose veins and spider veins.
Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical procedure used to treat varicose veins and spider veins. It involves injecting a sclerosant solution (Asclera) directly into the affected veins. The sclerosant irritates the vein walls, causing them to stick together and close off. Over time, the treated veins are absorbed by the body and disappear. Sclerotherapy is typically performed in an outpatient setting, and multiple injections may be necessary depending on the extent of the vein problem. It is a safe and effective treatment option for many individuals seeking to improve the appearance of varicose veins and spider veins.

Laser tattoo removal in Goodlettsville, TN is a procedure that uses laser light to break down the ink in a tattoo. The process involves several steps. First, a trained professional assesses the tattoo to determine if laser removal is suitable. Before treatment, the area is prepared by cleaning and shaving the skin, and protective eyewear is provided. During the treatment, a handheld device emits short bursts of intense laser light onto the tattooed area. The laser light is absorbed by the tattoo ink, causing it to break into smaller particles. Different laser wavelengths are used to target different ink colors. Once the ink particles are shattered, the body’s immune system recognizes them as foreign substances and gradually removes them over time. This process happens through the lymphatic system, which carries away the fragmented ink particles from the tattoo site. Multiple laser sessions are typically required to achieve significant fading or complete removal of the tattoo. After each laser session, the treated area may appear red, swollen, and blistered. Post-treatment care instructions, such as applying ointment and avoiding sun exposure, are provided to promote healing.

Morpheus8 is a state of the art non-surgical aesthetic treatment used to rejuvenate the skin. It combines two different kinds of technology microneedling and radiofrequency energy. Microneedling involves the use of tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the top layers of the skin, which stimulate the body’s natural healing response and encourage collagen growth. Radiofrequency energy delivers heat into deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production directly at the source.
By combining these two techniques, Morpheus8 can help tighten and smooth the skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, acne scars, and other forms of skin damage. It’s commonly used on the face and neck, but can also be used on other parts of the body.
Only a medical grade topical anesthetic is needed to provide comfort during the procedure.
Many providers suggest an initial series of 1 to 3 treatments, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. This allows for a progressive improvement in skin quality, as the treatment stimulates the body’s natural collagen production response over time. After the initial series, maintenance treatments may be recommended every 6 to 12 months to sustain the benefits.
The reason for multiple treatments is that skin rejuvenation is a gradual process. Each Morpheus8 treatment stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin in the skin, but it takes time for these changes to become visible. Multiple treatments allow for a more significant and sustained improvement in skin structure and appearance.
However, the number of treatments required can vary widely among individuals. Factors like the person’s age, skin type, extent of skin damage, and individual healing response can all influence the number of treatments needed. Some people may see significant improvements after just one treatment, while others may need several treatments to achieve their desired results.
