Although extremely popular these days in Denver, LATISSE® is far from the first product women have used in order to have more attractive eyelashes.

Autumn Skin Damage
Just because the summer sun is getting a little cooler doesn’t mean its rays are becoming any less damaging.

Luckily, there are a few medical-grade skin care products that just might be […]

Why I Decided to Include JUVÉDERM® at Our Medspa
As much as I love sharing about the benefits of BOTOX® Cosmetic at our Denver medspa, it does have its limitations. Is it FDA-approved to temporarily treat frown lines and crow’s feet?* Absolutely. Can it handle all types of facial wrinkles, or plump up thin lips? Unfortunately, no. Although BOTOX is a muscle relaxer that […]
BOTOX® Is a Brand Name
So many brands are now household words – how many times have you asked for a Kleenex instead of a tissue, or a Coke instead of a soda? The trouble is, if brand is diluted enough, it will lose its legally protected copyright status, so companies with big brands put a lot of work in […]
Medspa Treatments to Help Sun Damage
Denver locals sometimes forget that sun protection is even more important at elevation. This is because the intensity of UV rays increases with altitude, since there is less atmosphere to buffer dangerous rays. Although there are treatments available from our Denver medspa to reduce the signs of sun damage,* you should still take steps to […]
The Right Age for BOTOX®

BOTOX® Cosmetic isn’t administered based on a specific age, but rather according to your desired results. If you want to temporarily reduce frown lines, BOTOX® Cosmetic may be the solution you’re looking […]
Stressed-Out Skin
Would you be surprised to hear that some of our Denver medical spa patients come in because their skin is stressed out? We usually think of stress as a physical reaction: increased heart rate, sweating and anxiety. But stress affects our bodies in other ways, too, and may come out on your face. Fight or […]
BOTOX® Cosmetic or JUVÉDERM®?
Once you’ve decided to visit our Denver medical spa for a wrinkle treatment solution, we’ll likely talk with you about both BOTOX® Cosmetic and JUVÉDERM®. What’s the difference between the two treatments? They’re both FDA-approved treatments with results-driven track records, but they treat two different kinds of wrinkles.* Which is right for you? * BOTOX® […]
BOTOX® and Medical Spas
The simplicity and popularity of BOTOX® Cosmetic in Denver may mislead some patients to believe that practically anyone can perform BOTOX® injections successfully. This misconception is not helped by the number of non-medical spas in Denver who offer treatments like BOTOX® Cosmetic and other injectable fillers, yet are not supervised by skilled medical personnel. Trust […]
