✨ Hair changes with age—but it doesn’t have to stay that way
Before & After by Dr. Fabi
Up to 50% of women experience hair thinning after menopause due to hormonal shifts that affect the hair growth cycle.
In this case, a series of laser-based hair restoration treatments was used to stimulate the scalp and support overall follicular health.
Over time, this can help:
• Improve hair density and thickness
• Support healthier hair growth
• Restore a fuller, more youthful appearance
Results develop gradually as the scalp environment improves and hair continues to grow.
✨ A natural approach to restoring confidence.

💉 Temple filler results by Dr. Groff
Everyone thinks of fillers for the cheeks and lips, but treating volume loss in the temples is one of our favorite techniques for facial rejuvenation.
Volume loss in the temples creates a hollow or “skeletonized” appearance, contributes to a lowering of the outer brow, and may lead to a “peanut”-shaped head, a heavier neck/lower face appearance, and overall unbalanced facial shaping. The goal for facial rejuvenation is to achieve a smooth transition and soft contours between the forehead, brows, and cheeks.
For these results, Dr. Groff used a hyaluronic acid filler to restore volume in the temples, helping to create a smoother, more youthful facial contour while subtly lifting the lateral brow.
Temple filler can help:
• Restore volume loss in the upper face
• Improve overall facial balance and silhouette
• Support and subtly lift the outer brow
• Create a softer, more refreshed appearance
In this case, Juvéderm Voluma was used to provide structural support and natural-looking volume in this area.
✨ Subtle structure. Noticeable balance.

Before & After by Farzaneh Momeni-Salami, Medical Aesthetician
This patient came in dealing with acne and dark spots, looking to improve both breakouts and overall skin clarity.
With a series of customized 3xFacial treatments, her skin appears clearer, smoother, and more even-toned—with visible improvement over time.
The 3xFacial is designed to go beyond a traditional facial by combining three complementary treatments in one session, using options like chemical peels, SaltFacial, dermaplaning, HydraFacial, JetPeel, and advanced technologies like Breeze and WonderTouch.
Because concerns like acne and pigmentation don’t resolve overnight—consistency and the right combination matter.
✨ Trust the process. The results follow.

🧪 One of the things I’m most passionate about in my work as a board-certified dermatologist is research
In this video, Dr. Fabi shares exciting advancements showing how aesthetic treatments go beyond what we see on the surface.
For years, treatments like Sculptra (PLLA) have been known to stimulate collagen and elastin—but new research shows they may also stimulate stem cells, contributing to long-term improvement in skin quality and contour.
She also highlights how laser treatments do more than target pigmentation or redness—they can help improve the overall health and biological aging of the skin over time.
This means results aren’t just cosmetic—they’re working at a deeper level to support healthier skin.
Because the future of aesthetic dermatology isn’t just about how you look—it’s about how your skin functions and ages over time.
✨ Science-driven treatments. Long-term results.

🔷 A comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation
Before & After by Dr. Butterwick
Injectables today aren’t about overfilling—they’re about restoring structure and harmony across the face.
In this case, a strategic, multi-area approach was used to support areas like the temples, cheeks, chin, and under-eyes—creating a more balanced, refreshed appearance.
This type of treatment can help:
• Restore volume where it’s been lost
• Improve facial proportions and symmetry
• Soften shadows and hollowing
• Enhance natural contours without looking overdone
Because focusing on one area alone can throw off balance—while treating the face as a whole creates more natural-looking results.
🌿 Thoughtful placement. Noticeable difference.

“For the first time, people tell me I have nice skin - which never, ever happened before Take10!” - Shawn, patient testimonial after Take10 with Dr. Groff
Shawn came to see Dr. Groff with concerns about wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, sagging skin, skin texture, sun damage, and general aging - all common for someone in their 60s who grew up in the San Diego sun.
She also wanted to lift and improve the appearance of her hooded eyelids, but did NOT want to undergo surgery.
After an in-depth consultation, Dr. Groff and Shawn decided that a combination of Take10 and ThermiSculpt would be the best approach to address all of her concerns and remove 10+ years of aging from her face and neck in a single session - withOUT surgery.
Now 6 months post-treatment, Shawn’s skin appears smoother and more radiant! She will continue to see improvement as her skin continues to remodel over time, and already says she would “ABSOLUTELY, 100%” recommend Dr. Groff.
🌟Real patient experience. Real results you can trust.

Not all injectables are used the same way 💉
Each product is designed for a specific purpose — and choosing the right one is what creates natural, balanced results.
• Neuromodulators (Botox) → soften movement and relax muscles
• Hyaluronic acid fillers → restore volume, enhance shape, and define structure
• Sculptra → stimulate collagen and improve skin quality over time
For example:
A lip flip uses Botox to relax the upper lip, while fillers add volume.
Jawline definition may require both filler for structure and Botox for muscle contouring.
Acne scars often benefit from subcision combined with biostimulatory treatments like Sculptra.
The key is not using more — it’s using the right product in the right area with the right technique.
