In detail
What each treatment actually is
Written plainly, with the timelines and the caveats included — so you can decide before you sit in the chair.
Wrinkle relaxers
Wrinkle relaxers are prescription neuromodulator medications that temporarily relax targeted facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles. By reducing muscle activity, these treatments soften existing expression lines and may help reduce the formation of deeper wrinkles over time. Each product has unique characteristics regarding formulation, onset of results, diffusion, duration, and individual response.
The brands we offer
The prescription neuromodulator medications with FDA-approved cosmetic indications are: Botox®, Jeuveau®, Dysport®, Xeomin®, Daxxify®, Letybo®.
- Botox® was the first FDA-approved botulinum toxin for cosmetic use and remains one of the most extensively studied injectable treatments worldwide. It is commonly used to soften dynamic facial wrinkles while maintaining natural facial expression.
- Jeuveau®, often referred to as “Newtox,” was developed specifically for aesthetic use and is commonly selected to improve the appearance of dynamic facial wrinkles.
- Dysport® may spread slightly more than some other neuromodulators, making it a popular option for treating larger areas such as the forehead. Individual onset and response vary.
- Xeomin® is a purified neuromodulator formulated without accessory proteins. Some patients and providers prefer this formulation for long-term treatment plans, although individual response varies.
- Daxxify® utilizes a proprietary peptide formulation. Clinical studies have demonstrated that many patients may experience longer-lasting results compared with certain other neuromodulators; however, individual response and treatment duration vary.
- Letybo® is an FDA-approved botulinum toxin type A neuromodulator indicated for the temporary improvement of moderate to severe glabellar (frown) lines in adults.
Who it’s for
Not all patients are candidates for neuromodulator treatment. Certain medical conditions, allergies, medications, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or active infections at the treatment site may affect eligibility. Your provider evaluates your facial anatomy, muscle movement, medical history, current medications, treatment goals and potential contraindications.
What to expect
- Appointment: approximately 20–30 minutes.
- Ultra-fine needle injections, minimal discomfort, no anesthesia required for most patients.
- Results are noticeable within approximately 2–7 days, with full results generally over 10–14 days.
- Most patients experience little to no downtime. Temporary side effects — mild redness, mild swelling, tenderness, small injection-site bumps, minor bruising — typically resolve within several hours to several days.
- Duration of results: approximately 3–6 months, varying by product, treatment area, dosage, muscle activity, individual metabolism and personal response.
Wrinkle relaxer treatments are prescription medical procedures and should only be performed following an appropriate medical evaluation by a qualified healthcare provider. Results vary by individual and cannot be guaranteed.
Dermal & lip filler
Dermal fillers are prescription injectable medical devices that may be used to enhance facial contours, improve facial balance, soften the appearance of certain facial folds, and support age-related volume changes. Many dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance naturally found in the body that helps support skin hydration and structure. At Blanqa Medspa, we offer a selection of FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal fillers for appropriate cosmetic indications.
Common treatment areas
Lips · Cheeks · Chin · Jawline · Nasolabial folds (smile lines) · Marionette lines · Oral commissures · Temples · Facial balancing · Selected areas affected by age-related volume changes.
Who it’s for
Not all patients are candidates for dermal filler treatment. Certain medical conditions, allergies, medications, pregnancy, breastfeeding, active infections at the treatment site, or previous filler complications may affect eligibility.
What to expect
- Appointment: approximately 30–45 minutes.
- Includes a facial assessment, cleansing and skin prep, topical anesthetic when appropriate, and precise filler placement using a needle or cannula, depending on the treatment plan.
- Some effects are visible immediately; final outcomes are generally appreciated after approximately 2 weeks, once swelling has improved and the filler has settled.
- Downtime is minimal. Temporary side effects — mild swelling, bruising, tenderness, redness, firmness, temporary asymmetry during healing — typically improve over several days to two weeks.
- Duration of results: approximately 6–18 months.
Blanqa Medspa maintains emergency protocols and appropriate medications, including hyaluronidase for hyaluronic acid fillers when clinically indicated, to support the prompt recognition and management of rare filler-related complications.
Five protocols
From the Signature Glow at $350 to PDGF at $750 — which one is right depends on your skin, not on a menu.
Microneedling
Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses sterile, medical-grade needles to create controlled microchannels in the skin. These microchannels stimulate the skin’s natural healing response and may support improvements in the appearance of skin texture, fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, and overall skin quality. Specialized treatment boosters may be applied during the procedure.
The five options
- Microneedling – PDGF — Advanced microneedling with PDGF to support skin repair, collagen production, and overall rejuvenation.
- Microneedling – Blanqa Signature Glow — Brightening treatment designed to improve pigmentation, uneven tone, texture, and overall radiance.
- Microneedling – Bellumé — Advanced skin renewal with PDRN, synthetic exosomes, peptides, and hyaluronic acid to support hydration, texture, and rejuvenation.
- Microneedling – Curated — Personalized treatment customized after skin assessment to address concerns such as aging, dehydration, dullness, discoloration, and uneven texture.
- Microneedling – Bright Eyes — Targeted under-eye treatment designed to support hydration, smoother texture, fine lines, and refreshed-looking skin.
Common treatment areas
Face · Neck · Décolletage · Hands · Scalp (selected candidates) · Abdomen · Stretch marks (selected candidates) · Acne scars · Fine lines · Enlarged pores · Uneven skin texture · Uneven skin tone · Sun-damaged skin.
Who it’s for
Not all patients are candidates for microneedling. Certain medical conditions, pregnancy, active skin infections, inflammatory skin conditions, recent isotretinoin use, impaired wound healing, bleeding disorders, or other factors may affect eligibility.
Your results timeline
- Appointment: approximately 45–75 minutes.
- Days 1–3 — redness, sensitivity, tightness, or mild swelling.
- Days 3–7 — skin may appear smoother, brighter, more refreshed.
- First few weeks — the wound-healing response supports new collagen production and skin remodeling.
- Weeks 4–8 — gradual improvements in texture, tone and fine lines.
- Around 3 months — collagen remodeling continues. Human histologic studies have demonstrated significant collagen changes around this timeframe.
- Following months — remodeling may continue gradually.
Multiple treatments is recommended for optimal results. Downtime is minimal, and most people return to normal activities within 24–48 hours. Temporary side effects include redness, tenderness, dryness, mild swelling, skin sensitivity and temporary flaking.
Chemical peels
Chemical peels are professional skin resurfacing treatments that use carefully selected exfoliating ingredients to remove damaged surface skin cells and support the skin’s natural renewal process. Depending on the formulation selected, chemical peels may improve the appearance of uneven skin tone, fine lines, rough skin texture, acne-prone skin, and sun-related skin changes.
The two peels
- Chemical Peel – Radiance — A professional skin-refining peel designed to improve the appearance of uneven skin tone, dullness, texture, and mild signs of photoaging for a smoother, brighter-looking complexion. Formulated with trichloroacetic acid (TCA), kojic acid, mandelic acid, and additional skincare ingredients.
- Chemical Peel – Prestige — An advanced rejuvenating peel featuring NAD+, Epitalon, GHK-Cu, biomimetic peptides, and exosomal technology to support skin renewal, hydration, smoother texture, firmness, and overall radiance.
Common treatment areas
Face · Neck · Décolletage · Hands · Upper back · Arms · Selected areas of the body with uneven skin tone or rough texture.
Who it’s for
Not all patients are candidates for chemical peels. Certain medical conditions, pregnancy, active skin infections, recent use of isotretinoin, impaired wound healing, excessive sun exposure, or other factors may affect eligibility.
What to expect
- Appointment: approximately 30–45 minutes.
- Some patients notice brighter-appearing skin within several days. Visible peeling varies depending on the treatment selected and individual skin response.
- Downtime varies by peel depth. Temporary side effects — redness, dryness, tightness, flaking, peeling, temporary skin sensitivity — generally improve over several days.
Sun protection and adherence to your personalized post-treatment instructions are important to support healing and reduce the risk of unwanted pigment changes.
Collagen PDO threads
Collagen PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are absorbable medical sutures that may be used to support your body’s natural collagen production and improve the appearance of mild skin laxity, fine lines, and skin texture in appropriate candidates. Unlike lifting PDO threads, collagen (smooth or mono) PDO threads are designed to support gradual improvements in skin quality rather than reposition or lift significant sagging tissue.
Common treatment areas
Face · Cheeks · Jawline · Neck · Under the chin · Around the mouth · Forehead · Under-eye area (selected candidates) · Décolletage · Abdomen · Upper arms · Inner thighs · Above the knees · Buttocks · Hands.
Who it’s for
Not all patients are candidates for collagen PDO thread treatment. Certain medical conditions, medications, pregnancy, breastfeeding, active skin infections at the treatment site, or other factors may affect eligibility.
What to expect
- Appointment: approximately 30–60 minutes, including topical and/or local anesthetic when appropriate.
- Subtle changes appear within several weeks, with continued improvement over approximately 2–4 months.
- The PDO threads are gradually absorbed over approximately 4–6 months. Collagen remodeling may continue after the threads have dissolved.
- Downtime is minimal, with most people returning to normal activities within 24–48 hours. Temporary side effects include mild swelling, bruising, tenderness, temporary tightness, mild soreness and small needle entry marks.
- Potential risks include thread visibility or palpability, dimpling, thread migration, extrusion and scarring.
Collagen biostimulators
Collagen biostimulators are prescription injectable medical products that may support your body’s natural collagen production over time in appropriate candidates. Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, collagen biostimulators are designed to encourage gradual changes in skin quality and facial support through your body’s natural healing response rather than providing immediate volumizing effects.
The brands we offer
- Radiesse® — an FDA-approved injectable implant composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. It may be used in appropriate candidates to improve the appearance of certain facial folds and areas of age-related volume loss. In selected treatment areas, Radiesse® may also support collagen production over time.
- Sculptra® — an FDA-approved injectable poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) collagen biostimulator designed to support gradual collagen production over time. Treatment is typically performed over a series of sessions.
Common treatment areas
Cheeks · Temples · Jawline · Chin · Marionette lines · Nasolabial folds (smile lines) · Pre-jowl area · Hands · Neck (selected candidates) · Décolletage (selected candidates) · Body areas with mild skin quality concerns (selected candidates).
Who it’s for
Not all patients are candidates for collagen biostimulator treatment. Certain medical conditions, medications, pregnancy, breastfeeding, active skin infections at the treatment site, or other factors may affect eligibility.
What to expect
- Appointment: approximately 30–60 minutes.
- Collagen production occurs gradually, and many patients appreciate continued improvement over approximately 2–6 months following treatment.
- Downtime is minimal, with most people returning to normal activities within 24 hours. Temporary side effects include mild swelling, bruising, tenderness, redness, temporary firmness and injection-site discomfort.
- Potential risks include nodule formation, palpable product, delayed inflammatory reactions, skin injury, and, in rare cases, vascular complications.
Collagen biostimulator pricing is determined during your consultation, once the treatment areas and number of sessions are agreed.
Hair restoration
Hair restoration is a personalized medical aesthetic treatment that may support scalp health and the appearance of hair density in appropriate candidates. It may be recommended for patients experiencing thinning hair, early hair loss, or changes in hair quality. Hair thinning and hair loss can have many contributing factors, including genetics, hormonal changes, aging, nutritional deficiencies, medical conditions, medications, stress, and other underlying health conditions.
Treatment options
- Medical microneedling — creates controlled microchannels within the scalp that may support the scalp’s natural healing response and enhance the delivery of selected professional treatment products.
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) — utilizes components prepared from your own blood that may be injected into or applied to the scalp to complement the body’s natural healing response.
- Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) — a professional treatment option that may be incorporated into selected hair restoration protocols to support the scalp’s natural repair processes.
- PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) — may be incorporated into selected protocols to support scalp hydration and overall scalp quality.
- Collagen PDO threads — absorbable threads that may support the body’s natural collagen response within the scalp.
- Customized combination treatment protocols when clinically appropriate.
Who it’s for
Not all patients are candidates for hair restoration treatment. Certain medical conditions, medications, active scalp infections, pregnancy, breastfeeding, autoimmune conditions, bleeding disorders, uncontrolled medical conditions, or other factors may affect eligibility. Because hair thinning and hair loss may have underlying medical causes, additional medical evaluation, laboratory testing, or referral to another healthcare provider may be recommended when clinically appropriate.
What to expect
- Appointments take approximately 45–75 minutes, depending on the protocol selected.
- Patients may see gradual improvements in the appearance of hair density or scalp quality over several months. Hair restoration treatments require patience, and multiple treatment sessions are often recommended.
- Downtime is minimal, with most people returning to normal activities within 24–48 hours. Temporary side effects include mild redness, tenderness, swelling, minor bruising, scalp sensitivity, temporary pinpoint bleeding, and temporary shedding.
Hair restoration treatments are intended to support the appearance of hair density and overall scalp health in appropriate candidates. They are not intended to cure the underlying cause of hair loss.
Hair restoration pricing is determined during your consultation.
Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive medical procedure used to improve the appearance of certain superficial leg veins in appropriate candidates. During treatment, an FDA-approved prescription sclerosing solution is injected directly into targeted veins, causing the treated veins to gradually close and be naturally absorbed by the body over time.
Commonly treated
- Spider veins
- Small reticular veins
- Selected superficial leg veins
Who it’s for
Not all patients are candidates for sclerotherapy. Certain medical conditions, pregnancy, breastfeeding, active skin infections, history of blood clots, vascular disease, certain medications, or other factors may affect eligibility. Patients with larger varicose veins, significant venous disease, or other underlying vascular conditions may be referred for additional evaluation when clinically appropriate.
What to expect
- Appointments take approximately 30–60 minutes, depending on the number of veins treated.
- Treated veins gradually fade over time. Some patients begin noticing improvement within several weeks, while additional improvement may continue over several months. Multiple treatment sessions are commonly recommended.
- Compression stockings may be recommended following treatment. Walking is generally encouraged, while strenuous exercise, prolonged sun exposure, hot tubs and saunas may be temporarily restricted.
- Temporary side effects include mild redness, bruising, tenderness, swelling, itching, small areas of discoloration and temporary firmness along treated veins, which improve over several days to several weeks.
- Maintenance treatments may be recommended, as new spider veins may develop over time.
Potential risks include ulceration, trapped blood, superficial thrombophlebitis, infection, recurrence of treated veins, and, in rare cases, more serious vascular complications requiring medical evaluation.
Sclerotherapy pricing is determined during your consultation.
