POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

It is with a sad yet happy heart that I share that Scott and Brett’s precious mom, and Eddie’s beloved aunt, Dolores, marched into heaven yesterday afternoon.

It is not lost on me that she followed Hurricane Isaias for two reasons. First, it would be just like her to want us to feel safe and cared for. Secondly, and perhaps more importantly, Isaias means “Yahweh is salvation” or “God saves.”

If there is one word to encapsulate her life, it would be hospitality.

There was never a time she didn’t try to feed us.

"You want some cheese toast?”
“No, ma’am.”
“I’ll put ham on it.”
“No, thank you.”
“You want jelly only? I can do that.”
“No, really, I’m good.”
“Cinnamon toast? I can put frosting on it!”

Seriously, she always ended up winning that battle because she wanted you fed and enjoying what she enjoyed.

She was kind and funny and so devoted to her friends and family.

Her grandchildren spent a lifetime on her living room floor. She always had a pallet spread out for the grandkids, laden with all their favorite toys. And although it wasn’t her style to get down on the floor and join the fun, it was her pure delight to make sure they had everything they needed. And yes, that included snacks within reach.

For me, she instilled what it means to be part of a family and the importance of being genuinely tied to the people God gave us.

Recently, her cousins came for a visit. I shared with them that they shouldn’t be disappointed if the visit was a short one. And to my amazement—but not really—they laughed and giggled for over four hours. She mustered up all the strength she had to be present. Those ties mattered to her.

One thing I realized recently is something I think we all took for granted.

Mam-Ma had her own opinions about life. However, she always stood quietly in the background, letting Papa shine.

As she aged, we saw more and more of HER. Her thoughts. Her views. Her opinions.

I loved that I got a front-row seat to what I thought was a transformation, but in reality, that woman had been there all along. We were just getting to know her in a different way.

Today was Sydney’s last day with us and I spent basically the entire day trying not to cry. And now I’m sitting in the parking lot crying, so clearly that went well. 😭💔

It’s hard to explain how much this girl has meant to all of us and how quickly she became family.

Sydney wasn’t there for the early days of this practice, but somehow within approximately one week she had been fully briefed on the entire history, knew the background of all of our trauma 😂, understood every long standing inside joke and was caught up on years worth of stories she absolutely did not ask for.

There was never really a “new girl” phase. She just became one of us. She learned our personalities, our quirks, the looks across the room and the things we didn’t even have to say out loud. Before I knew it, I genuinely couldn’t remember what it felt like before she was here.

And God, did she make us laugh.

The amount of days we have belly laughed until we were literally crying because of this girl is probably wildly unprofessional 😂. The kind where nobody can breathe, we’re trying to pull ourselves together because there are actual patients in the office, and then someone makes eye contact and it starts all over again. 😂😂😂

Somewhere along the way Sydney stopped being someone who worked for me. She became my friend. She became our family. And I think one of the strangest parts of owning a business is that people can walk through your doors as employees and somehow, without you realizing when it happened, become people you genuinely love.

Sydney, thank you for choosing this team. Thank you for cheering us on, showing up every day and giving it your all. Thank you for sharing your life with us and letting us into it.

I’m so sad I don’t get to see you every day anymore, but I’m genuinely so excited for you and this next adventure. I want nothing but the absolute best for you. I hope you always know you have a family here and a place you can always come back to.

We love you so much, Sydney. You will be so, so missed. 💔😭

✨ Refreshed and Glowing!
(Before & After 3 months apart)
This patient came in with the goal of improving her skin quality, addressing dark under eyes, and restore a more refreshed well rested appearance.

After evaluating her skin and concerns, I recommended a combination approach focused on collagen stimulation and skin rejuvenation.

✨ I started with Sculptra to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. Sculptra helps gradually improve skin thickness, firmness, elasticity, and overall quality while restoring a more youthful foundation to the face.

✨ On the same day, I paired it with Microneedling with PRF. This procedure helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, uneven tone/texture, and softens acne scarring. PRF also helps achieve a brighter, more even complexion while adding an additional regenerative component to the treatment.

✨3 Month Follow-Up: Three months post-Sculptra, microneedling, routine Tox sprinkle, facials with @skn_by_skyy, and continued use of medical-grade skincare, the patient presents with a noticeably more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance. Her skin is glowing, with improved overall tone and texture. The under eye area appears brighter, smoother, and tighter. There has been improvement in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), along with visibly smaller pores and healthier, firmer looking skin!

The patient underwent her second combination treatment on this date to continue her skin rejuvenation journey ✨

This patient wanted to increase the height of her upper lip while also improving hydration and overall lip balance.

We used just over half a syringe to address the lip itself, focusing on subtle structural support rather than simply adding volume. The remaining product was placed strategically in the pyriform aperture to provide additional support to the upper lip and help maintain a natural-looking result.

The goal with lip filler isn’t always more volume. Thoughtful placement and understanding the surrounding anatomy can create subtle changes that enhance the lips while preserving the patient’s natural features.

The result: balanced, hydrated, and natural-looking lips👌🏻

Melasma is more than just pigmentation-it's a chronic skin condition that requires consistency, protection, and the right skincare.

Here are three of our favorite products to help support a melasma-friendly routine:

🤍Alastin A-Luminate - Helps reduce the appearance of uneven pigmentation and promotes a brighter, more even complexion.

🧡iS Clinical Pro-Heal Serum Advance+ - Packed with antioxidants to help calm inflammation and protect the skin while supporting overall skin health.

☀️Alastin HydraTint Pro Mineral Sunscreen SPF 36 - Daily sun protection is essential for managing melasma. This all-mineral tinted sunscreen helps shield against UV rays while providing a beautiful, radiant finish.

Remember: There isn't a one-size-fits-all solution for melasma, but a personalized skincare routine and diligent sun protection can make a significant difference.

Saying goodbye is never easy❤️

Sydney, thank you for almost a year of laughter, trust, and friendship. Your sweet card and thoughtful gifts mean the world to me. I’m going to miss you so much, but I’m also so excited for your new adventure.

Wishing you all the happiness in this next chapter. I’ll always be here when you come back to Virginia. Love you, girl! 🫶💕

If you’ve been a patient of mine, you probably already know how much I love microneedling! I truly believe it’s one of the most underrated treatments in aesthetics.

Healthy, glowing skin is the foundation for everything else. It boosts confidence, gives you that fresh-skin glow, and enhances the results of treatments like neurotoxins and fillers.

Microneedling creates tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering your body’s natural healing response. As your skin repairs itself, it produces new collagen and elastin. The result? Tighter, smoother, brighter skin with improved tone and texture!

If you’ve been thinking about trying microneedling but haven’t taken the leap yet… what’s holding you back? I’d love to answer your questions and help you decide if it’s the right treatment for you!

Trust me—once you experience the glow, you’ll understand why I’m always talking about it.
