I love delivering natural looking results while also being 100% honest with realistic expectations for my patients!”
We asked Sam to say a few things about Haley – “Haley & I clicked instantly and we talk every day. Whether that’s sending each other outfit links, new restaurants we want to try, or a video or post of a new injection technique, we have the same taste in just about everything. Haley is extremely intelligent and takes every precaution in order to be the safest injector possible. She has helped guide me and she has been a mentor to me from the second I met her. Her hard working mindset and determination is motivating. I can’t wait until our new location is open so we can be just a room over from one another!”

How It Works
Book a Complimentary Consultation
While a consultation is not mandatory, if this is your first time getting botox, filler or any aesthetic service, sometimes a consult is best to get started!
Your First Appointment
During your first appointment, your provider will review your medical history including previous treatments. They will then help to create a personalized treatment plan to help you achieve the best results. We discuss all of your concerns, your budget and timeline.
After-care and Maintenance
Most procedures will have some after-care involved. Your provider will review these with you at the end of your appointment. We also schedule follow-up appointments. Our botox and other neurotoxins will have a 2 week “perfection check”, so that we can ensure you are happy with your results! We also can book out your next appointments to keep you on schedule.
