✨ Transformation rooted in restoration ✨

After working hard on her wellness journey and losing weight, my beautiful patient noticed some natural changes in facial volume. Our goal together wasn’t to change her look, but to softly restore balance and radiance so she feels more like herself again.

Here’s what we did:
• Botox 💉 (to smooth expression lines)
• Subtle cheek filler (gentle lift + contour)
• 1 Sculptra treatment (stimulates natural collagen for long-term support)

This is just the beginning. We'll continue to build on her results with a full Sculptra series and skincare, keeping everything natural and in harmony.

Behind the scenes, where precision meets artistry. Every injection is part of a bigger picture. Balance, beauty, and confidence.

A full-circle moment. 🔄

Nearly a decade ago, I attended one of my first aesthetic injection trainings at the @aestheticmentor with @dr.josepharusso .

Fast-forward through years of clinical experience, continued education, and becoming an educator with @allergan_medical_institute as a trainer.

Over the last year, I've had the incredible opportunity to train directly under Dr. Mauricio de Maio, ultimately becoming an official MD Codes™ trainer, a milestone I’m incredibly proud of.

This past week, I had the privilege of leading an Allergan Medical Institute MD Codes™ roundtable, with Dr. Russo in attendance.

From sitting in that classroom as a new injector to standing at the front of the room nearly ten years later.

A lot of hard work between those two moments. Proud of the journey and excited for what’s ahead.

➡️ What we did:

💉 Step 1: Relaxed the overactive mentalis with Botox to reduce chin dimpling and upward pull.

💉 Step 2: Added dermal filler to the chin to restore length, projection, and lower-face balance.

💋 Step 3: Enhanced the lips with a focus on the upper lip for subtle hydration and proportion.

✨ The goal: Better harmony, not overcorrection. Small, strategic changes can make a big difference while still looking like you.

I do my best to explain everything before every Botox treatment. From the mechanism of action, to when it starts working, and when you’ll see the final result.

But I also know that when you’re excited (or a little nervous), it’s easy for those details to blur together.

So if you text me four hours later wondering why nothing has happened yet… don’t worry. You’re not the first, and you definitely won’t be the last. 😄 We’re in this together! 💉🤍.

When you settle on the lip flip! 🤣 👄.

This is what lip filler should look like 👇
Not just “bigger lips”… but better support, hydration, and structure.

Notice when she purses:
➡️ Less collapse around the lip
➡️ Smoother appearance
➡️ More hydrated lip tissue

Small, intentional placement > overfilling. Always.

Cheek filler isn’t about making the face bigger.

In MD Codes, an anatomically driven injection framework focused on structure and precision—

CK1 + CK4 act as key support points in the midface.
When placed correctly, they help elevate tissue, enhance contour, and restore balance without unnecessary volume.

Less about adding.
More about supporting.

Correction > Overcorrection. ✨

This patient came to me with filler that had migrated beyond the lip border and into the wet–dry line. Instead of adding more, we dissolved the old product and rebuilt with intention.

The result?
Balanced shape.
Crisp borders.
Natural volume.

Sometimes the best enhancement starts with starting over.
