The treatment I love: Tear trough & cheek injections
When a patient complains of looking tired, the issue is usually a sunken under-eye (tear trough) area combined with a loss of volume in the cheeks, which I love to treat using dermal filler injections. This treatment is one of my favourites because results are instant and patients leave their appointment with me looking fresh!
First, I address the volume loss in the cheeks to create a better transition between the lower eyelid and cheek. Then, using a small cannula, I inject dermal filler into the indented area under the eyes. Because this area is so delicate—with many arteries, veins, and tear ducts in such a small space—the procedure should only be performed by an experienced injector to avoid blood vessel complications, blood circulation issues, and tear duct blockage. I am very proud to say I have never even caused bruising in all my years of performing tear trough injections!

The treatment I love: Microneedling + PRP
My absolute favourite treatment right now is PRP + microneedling. The procedure combines the mechanical process of microneedling with the application of platelet rich plasma (PRP). PRP is a natural substance created from your own blood that contains growth factors to help stimulate the regeneration and rejuvenation of your skin. Both of these procedures are effective on their own, but we’re seeing incredible results from the combined treatment.
Microneedling helps us infuse your skin with PRP, which together stimulate collagen and elastin production and promote cell turnover. The Beauty Nurse® team loves this combination for the treatment of wrinkles or scars in the face, hands, and neck, and to generate a thicker, more elastic and youthful-appearing skin.
Lauren Jacobs, Aesthetic and Peri-Operative R.N., CoolSculpt Specialist
The treatment I love: CoolSculpting®.
It should come as no surprise that my all-time favourite treatment is CoolSculpting®. What can I say? I practice what I preach! I’ve experienced the treatment myself, and I’ve seen the extraordinary results that my patients have enjoyed. There’s just no other body contouring treatment like it. With quick, comfortable, and non-invasive treatment sessions, targeted fat cells in the chin, abdomen, thighs, buttocks, bra-line or upper arms are frozen, processed, and naturally cleared by the body over the course of several weeks. I love seeing patients weeks later with leaner silhouettes and sky-high self-confidence. Look through our online gallery of CoolSculpting® patient photos to see what I’m talking about.
