Injectables for Lines, Wrinkles, and Volume

Targeted injectables can refresh your expression while keeping features balanced.

Neuromodulators

Neuromodulators to soften expression lines

Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport are FDA-approved options that relax specific muscles. They soften dynamic lines and help reduce the deepening of wrinkles over time.

Results usually appear in days and commonly last 3–6 months. Conservative dosing keeps movement natural while improving overall appearance.

Dermal fillers

Dermal fillers for lips, cheeks, and facial balancing

Fillers restore structure and volume in the cheeks, chin, and jawline. They also allow precise lip shaping to enhance proportion without an overfilled look.

Many fillers last longer than neuromodulators, depending on product and area. Skilled placement creates balanced contours and smoother skin.

Biostimulatory injectables

Biostimulatory options for collagen and long-term firmness

Biostimulatory products encourage your body to build collagen. Improvements appear gradually and can improve firmness and skin quality over months.

Combining a touch of toxin with strategic filler often gives better facial harmony. We prioritize safety with conservative dosing, anatomical expertise, numbing, and micro-cannulas for comfort.

OptionPrimary GoalTypical LongevityComfort & Safety

Skin Rejuvenation & Laser Technology

Choosing the right device makes a big difference in how your skin heals and shows results.

Fractional versus CO2: Fractional lasers treat many microzones to stimulate collagen while keeping downtime lower. CO2 resurfacing goes deeper and is best for etched lines and severe texture concerns. Your provider will weigh depth, recovery, and your goals to pick the ideal option.

Texture and tone improvement with fractional and CO2 lasers

Fractional platforms balance impact and recovery for pore, scar, and mild texture work. CO2 is chosen when deeper resurfacing is needed to smooth pronounced lines and restore even texture.

Photo rejuvenation for sun damage, redness, and pigment

IPL and photo rejuvenation target sun spots, tiny vessels, and rosacea. These light-based methods can clarify tone and leave skin looking more even with minimal downtime.

Noninvasive lifting with Ultherapy

Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound to lift the brow, under the chin, neck, and chest. It’s a non-surgical option for patients seeking subtle tightening and improved lines over months. We are the only local provider in SW Colorado offering this option.

ResurFX and RF for collagen remodeling

ResurFX is a fractional laser that stimulates collagen and elastic fibers without full resurfacing. RF-based remodeling warms deeper layers to boost firmness and resilience. Both improve texture and long-term tone when used in planned series.

TechnologyPrimary GoalDowntimeBest For
Fractional Laser / ResurFXCollagen stimulation, texture smoothingLow to moderatePores, mild scars, tone improvement
CO2 ResurfacingDeep resurfacing, etched linesModerate to highSevere texture, deep wrinkles
IPL / Photo RejuvenationReduce pigment and visible vesselsLowSun spots, redness, rosacea

RF RemodelingFirmness and collagen remodelingLow to moderateOverall skin resilience and mild laxity

Modern laser and energy technology lets clinicians target specific concerns with a focus on comfort and safety. For a deeper look at resurfacing options, see our skin resurfacing guide.

Microneedling and RF Remodeling

Controlled micro-injuries prompt your body to heal, producing collagen and elastin that smooth and strengthen.

Collagen induction for smoother skin and refined pores

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that creates tiny channels in the skin to trigger repair. This process refines pores, evens texture, and can soften fine lines with little downtime.

microneedling skin texture

Morpheus8 for targeted tightening and contour

Morpheus8 pairs microneedling tips with bipolar radiofrequency to remodel deeper layers. The RF energy tightens areas like the jawline, jowls, and cheeks for subtle contouring.

ApproachDepthSensationRecovery
Stand-alone microneedlingSuperficial to mid-dermisMild; topical numbing1–3 days redness
RF-assisted (Morpheus8)Deeper remodelingModerate; adjustable settings2–5 days swelling/redness
EnhancementsTopicals / PRF / AQUAGOLDBoosted resultsSimilar recovery with greater glow

Expert settings and technique matter most. After care is simple: hydrate, use SPF, and avoid strong actives for several days to protect the fresh barrier.

Targeted Face & Body Contouring

If your goals center on a sleeker profile, focused non-surgical options can help. These methods aim for defined lines with minimal downtime so daily life keeps moving.

Kybella for submental reduction

Kybella for submental reduction

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable that reduces submental fullness and refines the jawline without surgery. Most patients need 2–4 sessions spaced several weeks apart.

Temporary swelling and mild bruising are common. Results appear gradually as fat cells shrink and your profile reveals a sleeker line.

Radiofrequency and thread lifting for definition

RF energy tightens lower-face and neck tissue to soften early jowling and improve contour. PDO threads offer an immediate lift plus collagen stimulation over months.

Both options fit patients with localized concerns where definition and contour are the goals. They work well together or with other skin care services to polish texture.

OptionPrimary GoalDowntime
KybellaSubmental fat reductionLow–moderate (swelling)
RF TighteningFirmness, contourLow
PDO ThreadsImmediate lift + collagenLow–moderate

Subtle contouring can boost daily confidence in photos and in-person. Thoughtful planning and follow-up care help you meet your goals while keeping comfort central to the aesthetics wellness plan.

Laser Hair Removal for Smooth, Confident Skin

Modern laser platforms make long-term hair reduction faster and far more comfortable than older methods.

How it works: Pulses of light target hair follicles to disrupt regrowth. Over a series of sessions, many follicles stop producing hair and the skin stays smoother for months to years.

Devices now cover larger areas with fewer passes and built-in cooling for minimal discomfort. That efficiency shortens each appointment and reduces downtime.

Typical plans include 6–8 sessions spaced 4–8 weeks apart so the clinic can catch hairs in the active growth phase. Settings are adjusted for face, underarms, bikini, legs, and back to match skin tone and hair thickness.

Before and after care matters: avoid sun exposure, skip waxing between sessions, and shave rather than pull hairs. These steps protect the skin and improve results.

Beyond cosmetic benefits, many patients see fewer ingrown hairs and less irritation. Safety protocols include eye protection and device calibration at every treatment.

Why patients choose laser: long-lasting smoothness, time saved in daily grooming, and a cleaner, more comfortable skin experience that supports overall wellness.

Weight Loss Support Designed for Real Results

Semaglutide programs at Aesthetics and Wellness of Durango pair clinical care with practical coaching to help clients meet lasting goals.

Medically guided weight loss uses weekly semaglutide injections to steady appetite and support gradual, sustainable loss. Each plan combines medication with nutrition coaching and regular accountability check-ins.

We set realistic body composition goals and track progress. Medical screening and ongoing oversight ensure safety and adjust dosing as needed under clinician guidance.

What to expect

Supportive habits matter: hydrate, choose protein-forward meals, and add resistance training to protect muscle. Improved energy and sleep often boost adherence and overall wellness.

Semaglutide injectionsAppetite controlWeekly, reviewed monthlyClinician oversight
Nutrition coachingHealthy habits, protein focusOngoingMeal plans, education
Accountability & trackingBody composition goalsBiweekly to monthlyCheck-ins and adjustments

Thoughtful support helps you stay consistent and truly help achieve your weight goals while protecting skin health and overall quality of life.

Hormone Balancing to Help You Look and Feel Your Best

Small shifts in hormones often ripple through energy, sleep, and skin health. A clear diagnostic approach helps identify imbalances that affect daily life and overall health.

Diagnosing imbalance and optimizing energy, mood, and life

Comprehensive testing includes labs and a medical review to pinpoint what’s driving fatigue, sleep changes, or low mood.

We tailor a plan that aligns with each patient’s goals and medical history. Ongoing labs keep dosing on track.

Convenient in-office pellet therapy

Pellet therapy is a quick, in-office procedure that delivers steady hormone release with minimal downtime.

Many patients notice improved energy and mood within weeks. Follow-up labs and visits refine the dosing for lasting benefit.

“Education and monitoring are central — we want patients to feel confident about choices that affect their health and life.”

IV Therapy and Wellness Care

When daily demands leave you drained, a tailored IV can restore fluids and key vitamins efficiently. IV therapy delivers hydrating fluids, minerals, and antioxidants to support immunity, speed recovery, and reduce symptoms after travel, workouts, or illness.

Hydration, vitamins, and boosters to support recovery and immunity

Common drips include hydration with electrolytes, vitamin C for immune support, B-complex for energy, and glutathione for antioxidant balance.

Boosters can be added to match goals—energy, immune defense, or faster muscle recovery. Sessions act fast because the nutrients go directly into the bloodstream.

Personalized wellness and nutritional counseling

Our clinicians pair IV sessions with customized nutrition plans that fit your daily routine and body composition goals. Counseling focuses on habits that sustain results: sleep, movement, and balanced meals.

Regular sessions can complement broader care plans. Healthier routines often show in brighter skin and steadier energy for day-to-day life.

Medical-Grade Skincare and Facials

Medical-grade facials go beyond pampering to deliver measurable skin change. These services use stronger actives and clinical technique to address fine lines, acne, and dullness with real follow-up and outcomes.

Customized facials and corrective peels

Custom facials combine deep cleansing, targeted serums, and manual techniques to clear congestion and brighten tone. Corrective chemical peels remove dead cells for a fresher, more even appearance.

AQUAGOLD micro-infusion delivers tiny doses of serums for subtle rejuvenation and quick recovery. These options allow precise work on texture and tone without long downtime.

Professional skincare plans for lasting results

Home regimens reinforce in-office gains. We pick products and intervals that protect the barrier and keep results steady.

Pre- and post-peel care—sun avoidance, gentle cleansers, and SPF—cuts downtime and protects results. Consistency is the secret to cumulative beauty that looks natural and lasts.

Aesthetic Wellness Treatments: What to Expect, Results, and Safety

A short, focused consultation helps us learn your goals and design a step-by-step care path.

Consultation, customized plans, and timelines

We review priorities, medical history, and current medications. This helps the clinician match each treatment to your needs and concerns.

Expect a clear timeline. Some improvements show right away. Collagen-driven changes appear over weeks to months.

Downtime, comfort, and aftercare guidance

Comfort options include topical numbing, cooling, and vibration tools to improve the in-office experience.

Typical downtime ranges: injectables—minimal; light/laser—low to moderate; RF—short swelling; peels—moderate depending on depth. These windows make scheduling stress-free.

Natural-looking outcomes and confidence boost

We favor conservative, precise techniques so results look natural and enhance confidence. Trained staff and medical oversight support safety and predictable results.

Aftercare essentials: sun protection, gentle cleansing, and pausing active products until skin heals. For hair or skin procedures, specific instructions protect results and speed recovery.

FAQ

What can I expect during my initial consultation?

During your first visit, a clinician reviews your medical history, discusses goals for skin, body, or weight, and performs a focused exam. Together you’ll build a personalized plan that may include injectables, laser sessions, microneedling, or hormone and IV therapy. We prioritize comfort and clear timelines so you know what to expect at each step.

How do you choose which devices or procedures are right for me?

Our team combines a detailed skin and body assessment with your goals. We select from proven options — BBL, Moxi, CO2, ResurFX, RF, Ultherapy, and other platforms — to target texture, tone, laxity, or pigment. Treatment choice balances efficacy, downtime, and your lifestyle.

Are injections like Botox and fillers safe, and how long do results last?

Yes. Neuromodulators such as Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin are administered by expert injectors to soften lines. Dermal fillers restore volume in lips, cheeks, and other areas. Results vary: neuromodulators last about 3–4 months, many fillers last 6–18 months, and biostimulatory products can improve collagen for a year or longer. Your clinician recommends the best product and schedule.

What is recovery like after lasers, CO2, or Morpheus8?

Recovery depends on intensity. Fractional and CO2 treatments may cause redness, swelling, and peeling for several days to a week. Morpheus8 and RF options often have milder downtime—redness and tenderness for a couple days. We provide aftercare instructions, topical supports, and follow-up to speed healing and protect results.

How many microneedling or ResurFX sessions will I need?

Most patients see meaningful improvement after 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. For deeper concerns like scarring or significant laxity, additional treatments or combined therapies (peels, laser, RF) may be recommended. Your plan will include expected milestones and maintenance timing.

Can body contouring like Kybella or radiofrequency replace surgery?

Minimally invasive options such as Kybella for submental fat and radiofrequency contouring offer solid results for mild to moderate concerns. They are not always a substitute for surgical lifts or liposuction in advanced cases, but many patients prefer these non-surgical choices for less downtime and natural-looking improvement.

Is laser hair removal safe for all skin tones?

Modern laser platforms can safely treat a wide range of skin tones, but ideal settings and device choice vary. We assess skin type and hair color to pick the right parameters, minimizing risk and maximizing long-term reduction. Multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart are needed for lasting smoothness.

How does your semaglutide weight loss program work?

Our medically supervised program combines prescription semaglutide with nutrition coaching, accountability, and body composition tracking. Clinicians monitor progress, adjust dosing, and integrate lifestyle guidance to support steady, sustainable results and overall health.

What does hormone balancing involve and who is a candidate?

Hormone care begins with testing and a full review of symptoms—energy, mood, sleep, and metabolic concerns. For appropriate candidates, pellet therapy or tailored regimens restore balance and support quality of life. All treatments follow medical guidelines and ongoing monitoring.

Do you offer IV therapy and what conditions does it help?

Yes. IV hydration and vitamin boosters help with recovery, immunity, athletic performance, and energy. Formulations are customized based on needs and lab results when available. Sessions are performed by trained medical staff in a comfortable setting.

What skincare should I use between procedures to protect results?

A medical-grade regimen typically includes gentle cleanser, broad-spectrum sunscreen, antioxidant serums, and targeted actives like retinoids or peptides as tolerated. We create a corrective plan that supports healing, enhances texture and tone, and extends the life of in-office services.

How do you ensure natural-looking outcomes with fillers and threads?

Our clinicians focus on facial balance, proportion, and individualized volume goals. Using conservative placement and proven products such as hyaluronic acid fillers or PDO threads, we aim for subtle enhancement that preserves expression and boosts confidence.

Are results from biostimulatory injectables permanent?

Biostimulatory options like poly-L-lactic acid stimulate collagen over months, giving gradual, long-lasting firmness. While they can significantly extend youthful structure, no injectable is truly permanent; maintenance sessions help sustain improvements.

What should I avoid before and after laser or injectable procedures?

Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements, excessive sun exposure, and topical retinoids or acids as directed before sessions. After procedures, follow specific aftercare: sun protection, gentle skincare, and temporary restrictions on strenuous activity or heat to reduce swelling and support healing.

How quickly will I see results from IV therapy or vitamin infusions?

Many patients report faster energy, reduced fatigue, or improved recovery within 24–48 hours after an IV session. Effects vary with individual status and the blend used; your clinician will recommend frequency based on goals and response.

Do you offer financing or packages for multiple services?

Yes. We provide treatment packages and financing options to make care accessible. Packages can combine injectables, lasers, and skincare plans for better value and coordinated results. Ask our front desk about current offers and payment plans.
