Are you ready to look refreshed for the spring time? 🌷✨

If you’ve been noticing fine lines lingering or you look more tired than you feel, neuromodulators like Dysport, Botox, and Daxxify are one of the most effective ways to help soften those concerns while still looking like you.

Here’s how they work 👉

Neuromodulators gently relax the muscles responsible for repetitive movements (like frowning, squinting, or raising your brows). Over time, these movements create lines in areas like the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes.

By softening that muscle activity, we’re able to:

✨ Smooth existing lines
✨ Prevent deeper lines from forming
✨ Create a more rested, refreshed appearance

Results typically begin to appear a few days after treatment and peak results can be enjoyed around the 10-14 day mark.

Spring is the perfect time for a refresh 🤍 Schedule your appointment with one of our Aesthetic Nurse Practitioners today!

Did you know we start losing 1-2% of collagen every year after the age of 22? 💭

Introducing our newest series: things we wish our clients knew! Today’s topic? Collagen!

If you’ve been noticing your skin looks less firm, fine lines are settling in, or your skin is just not glowing the way it used to? Collagen loss may be the culprit!

Our goal is to protect the collagen we have while stimulating new collagen production to maintain our skin’s long term health. That’s where in office treatments like collagen induction therapies come in!

Treatments like SkinPen Microneedling, Morpheus RF Microneedling, and Solaria CO2 laser work by creating controlled stimulation within the skin, encouraging your body to produce new collagen and elastin.

When used strategically as a part of a long term game plan, these treatments help strengthen your skin from within while improving what you see on the surface.

✨ If you’re starting to notice these changes, it’s the perfect time to be proactive! Schedule a consultation with one of our Aesthetic Nurse Practitioners and let’s create a plan tailored to your skin and your goals.

Say bye-bye to stubborn pigmentation with our Intense Pulse Light treatment!

Glowing and radiant skin comes from treating the quality and integrity of the skin as a whole. The Lumecca IPL Photofacial is perfect for global improvement and prejuvenation by treating early signs of aging and preventing future skin issues. By tackling pigmentation, uneven skin tone, and overall brightening, this treatment promotes a more even toned complexion.

IPL targets...

⚡️age spots sun damage
⚡️hyperpigmentation
⚡️vascular lesions like broken capillaries
⚡️rosacea
⚡️discoloration caused by surgical scarring

When do you see results?
Results can be seen after one treatment but a series of 3 sessions are recommended to for best results! After this, we suggest a yearly maintenance treatment to keep up your results as needed. Depending on your sun exposure and your at home skincare will depend on the maintenance frequency of your treatments.

What’s your downtime?
You’ll look like you just got a sunburn for up to 72 hours following the treatment. Dark spots and freckles will appear darker over the following days (similar to the appearance of coffee grounds) and will slough off to reveal new skin underneath.

If you’ve been thinking about incorporating Lumecca IPL into your Spring game plan, we suggest booking soon as we discontinue this photosensitive treatment during the summer months from Memorial Day to Labor Day ☀️

Book online or schedule a consultation with one of our aesthetic Nurse Practitioners to determine if this treatment is best for you!

Have you wondered what happens during a Solaria CO2 laser treatment? We’re taking you behind the scenes with us! ✨

Before treatment:

We apply a topical numbing cream and let that sit on your skin to keep you comfortable. You’ll even wear some stylish protective goggles! Our popular spikey distraction tools are available for additional pain management.

During treatment:

The amazing thing about Solaria is that we can fully customize the laser intensity and depth to your skin concerns. During the treatment, the laser will create thousands of microscopic microchannels in the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production while helping shed damaged surface layers to reveal smoother, brighter, and healthier skin underneath. The best way we like to describe the sensation is warm and tingly, similar to holding a tiny sparkler near the skin. 🎇

After treatment:

It’s normal to experience redness, warmth, and a sunburn like sensation for a few hours. You’ll go home with an after-care kit to promote healing and keep you comfortable at home.

What’s the recovery look like?

Over the next several days, the skin begins its renewal process. Your recovery time may vary as we can tailor the treatment settings based on your skin concerns and desired goals but most experience dryness, peeling and possible swelling as fresh new skin emerges. We typically recommend planning for about 2 weeks of social downtime as your skin heals and regenerates. This is not a treatment to do before a big event!

Once you’re fully healed, you’ll enjoy improved texture, softer fine lines, more even tone, and overall stronger skin quality!

If you’re ready for your transformation, we’d love to welcome you in to schedule a consultation with one of our Aesthetic Nurse Practitioners so that we may help create an individualized plan for you! ✨

A trust the process moment! 🙌

Has the winter season left your skin feeling dull, uneven, or just “meh” looking? Chemical peels are a great way to give your skin a reset! ⏱️

This before and after shows day 3 versus day 5 after a VI Peel treatment. Days 3 - 5 are what we call your peak peeling stage and then the fresh new skin starts to reveal itself underneath the days following! The peeling phase is definitely a trust the process moment, but the results are always worth it!

Chemical peels work by gently exfoliating the outer layers of the skin to help:

- Smooth rough texture
- Fade stubborn pigmentation
- Improve tone and clarity
- Stimulate new skin cell turnover
- Bring back that healthy ✨ lit from within ✨ glow

Plus, it’s safe for all skin types and tones while still delivering powerful results.

We recommend that you come in for your peel on a Wednesday/Thursday so that your peak peeling is done over the weekend!

At Thistle, we offer a variety of peel options and customize them based on your individual skin concerns for your best results! Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve optimal results.

✨ Curious if a chemical peel is right for your skin? We’d love to invite you in for a consultation so that we can make the best recommendation for you!

A one month transformation 👉

This lovely client of ours received the Solaria CO2 deep resurfacing treatment, Dysport, and an exosome derived skincare enhancer.

✨ Solaria CO2 Laser:

Solaria is a fractional laser treatment that creates controlled microchannels in the skin to stimulate collagen remodeling and accelerates cellular renewal. Over the weeks that follow treatment, the skin begins rebuilding itself by producing new collagen and elastin that improve firmness, texture, and overall skin resilience.

Most clients begin to see visible improvement within weeks, with continued collagen remodeling for up to six months after treatment.

✨Wrinkle Relaxer:

To complement the resurfacing treatment, we also refreshed facial movement with Dysport in the glabella (between the brows), around the eyes, chin, and DAO muscles (responsible for the downward pull at the corners of the mouth). Relaxing these areas helps soften expression lines while subtly lifting and balancing the face.

✨ Exosomes to enhance her post-treatment recovery:

We also incorporated the Plated INTENSE Serum, which delivers platelet-derived exosomes directly into the skin. Exosomes help enhance cellular communication, ensuring that active ingredients in your routine are working efficiently by calming inflammation and supporting fibroblast activity (the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin).

After her combination treatment plan, you can already notice:

- Smoother appearance of loose, crepey skin along the neck
- Improved overall skin texture and tone
- Softening of under-eye hollowness
- Brighter, more even skin quality
- A refreshed, lifted appearance

This transformation is the result of a strategic, multi-modality approach designed to improve skin quality.

Curious if Solaria CO2 resurfacing could be part of your skin plan?

Schedule a consultation with one of our Aesthetic Nurse Practitioners, and we’d love to help create a treatment strategy tailored to your skin, goals, and lifestyle!
