The Facial Refinery

Your face isn’t a menu and you don’t need to walk in knowing exactly what to “order” 🧐

We look at your face together, talk about your goals, and build a plan that fits 📝

My job is to guide you, and explain what makes sense 💡

Faces age and move differently, so we can’t expect someone else’s lips or jawline to look the same on us 🚫

Not sure where to start? We can’t help build a plan for you 🫵🏼

In case you wanted to have your cake and eat it too...

To find your Botox balance, first decide what's MOST important to you

- Long-lasting results?
- No visible lines?
- Natural movement?

🔻Botox requires compromise🔻

After you identify your main goal, take note of the factors that accompany it

For example, longer-lasting results = a higher dose = more expensive 💵

Conversly, natural movement = less units = more
wrinkles

PS: More units doesn't have to mean A LOT of units; it just means the amount that's optimal for you

Eight years of trust, patience, and knowing when to say no

There were plenty of times she wanted more, and I reminded her she didn’t need it. That’s why her lips still look beautiful today🫶🏼

I don’t have her original before photo since her journey started long before opening The Facial Refinery, but she had one saved so we could finally show it 📸💋

This patient had beautiful lips to start, which plays a big role in how lips turn out

Not every result will look like this because everyone’s lips are different at baseline

Different lips = different results 💋

Lip filler migration is more common than most people realize. It doesn’t always happen overnight, and it doesn’t always mean something was done wrong

It does mean the filler isn’t sitting where it’s supposed to 😐

When migration happens, it can blur the lip border, change the shape, create heaviness, and spread into areas it was never meant to be

Adding more is not always the solution 🚫

When your injector tells you no, it’s usually because more product will only make the problem worse, not better ⚠️

That’s the kind of honesty you want 🙌

A thorough assessment can make all the difference in getting your lips back to how you want them to look

This is what 8.5 syringes looks like gradually over five months 💉

We treated her chin, cheeks, jawline, and lips to bring everything into better balance ✨

When you build structure slowly and intentional, each feature complements the next 🙌

The chin has projection and balance, the cheeks provide support, and volume through the mid face, and the lips tight it all together for a smooth, natural flow from every angle 📐

Beautiful changes happen slowly layered with purpose, not pressure 🫶🏼

What’s scarier than clowns on Halloween?🎈

Lines creeping back in because you waited too long for your Bootox 👻

Botox works best when you stay ahead of those lines instead of chasing them once they’re back ✔️

Stay consistent, and your results will last longer 🔑📅

It’s so easy to stand in the mirror and only see what’s “wrong.” I’ve done it too. But the lines, the scars, the little things we nitpick, none of that defines us

God didn’t create you to be measured by a reflection 🙏 He created you with intention, with love, and with a beauty that goes far beyond what anyone can see ❤️

You are more than enough, exactly as you are

And yes, sometimes we choose treatments or enhancements, but not because we’re not enough. Those things can touch the outside, but they’ll never change the inside

“You are altogether beautiful, my darling; there is no flaw in you.” Song of Solomon 4:7

Smoother lines ➕ Hydrated lips 👄

This treatment focused on softening those etched in lines around the mouth and restoring a healthy, hydrated look to the lips without changing her shape.

When people hear “lip filler” they usually think big, but that’s not always the goal. Filler can also restore hydration, smooth lines, and keep lips looking healthy without changing your shape or size.

What are your lip goals?
