Most of our patients were nervous too. Here's what happens, what it feels like, what it costs and how to decide, with no pressure at any step.
Free virtual consultation available · No obligation
Four simple steps
Talk
Tell Irina what's bothering you and what you want to keep. Share your medical history, medications and allergies.
Assess
She studies your anatomy and how your face moves, then explains what she recommends, what's optional and what it costs.
Decide
There's no obligation. You can go ahead, take time to think, or leave with a recommendation to do nothing.
Follow up
If you're treated, Irina reviews aftercare before you leave and welcomes you back for a complimentary two-week check-in.
The three main types of treatment
Wrinkle relaxers
Botox® and Dysport® temporarily relax targeted muscles to soften lines from expression. Results typically last 3 to 4 months. Learn more
Dermal fillers
Gel placed under the skin to restore volume or refine shape in areas like the lips, cheeks and chin. Start with lips or see facial balancing
Skin treatments
Options like microneedling, PRP and SkinVive™ improve texture, hydration and glow rather than changing shape. Learn more

First-timer FAQ
Does it hurt?
Most patients say it's much less painful than expected. Wrinkle relaxers feel like a quick pinch and take 10 to 15 minutes. Numbing is used where appropriate for filler.
Will I look done?
The goal is balance, not a "done" look. Irina starts conservatively and recommends only what suits your anatomy.
Do I have to get treated at my consultation?
No. A consultation is just a conversation, with no obligation to treat. If Irina thinks you don't need anything, she'll tell you.
What will it cost?
A virtual consultation is free and gives general guidance. An in-person consultation is $75 plus tax. Starting prices are on our pricing page, and final pricing is determined at your appointment, after a full assessment.
What are the risks?
Bruising and swelling are the most common. Each treatment page lists its common and less common risks, and Irina reviews the ones that apply to you before anything happens.
Do I need a membership?
No. The Rejuvenation Club is optional and is designed for patients who already see Irina regularly. Start with a consultation; membership can come later.
