Full Facial Balancing

When you look in the mirror, does it seem like your face is falling down? Do you see deep lines where there were none before? Maybe it looks like all your facial volume is now around your jawline, and you are starting to see subtle jowling. 


Would you like to look younger naturally - turn the clock back a few years, and look fresh and young on Zoom calls?


You are probably wondering how and when this happened—the changes seem to have appeared overnight. However, it has been happening gradually over the years.


Facial aging is the natural process by which the face changes over time, resulting in wrinkles, lines, and other visible signs of aging. This process is influenced by a number of factors, including genetics, sun exposure, smoking stress, and lifestyle choices.

As we age, the skin loses elasticity and firmness, which can lead to sagging and wrinkles. The production of collagen and elastin, two key proteins that keep the skin smooth and supple, decrease over time. Additionally, the underlying fat and muscle in the face may shift or diminish, which can change the contours of the face and create hollows or lines.


So what’s holding you back from treatment? 


Many people have fears and misconceptions about seeking cosmetic treatment. You may be worried that you will need invasive surgery, such as a facelift, to resolve the problem. You might fear looking unnatural or fake. You may worry about the safety, discomfort, side effects, or long term effects. Some people believe that cosmetic treatment is for people that are much older, or are concerned about side effects such as downtime or bruising. Some people are fearful about what is actually being put in your body - that it might be a toxin that will have long-term effects.


The good news is that we have a solution to your problem!


Full facial balancing with dermal fillers is a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting fillers into various areas of the face to restore volume, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and improve overall facial contours. Dermal Fillers are typically made of hyaluronic acid, which is a natural substance found in the body that helps to hydrate and plump up the skin.


The treatment typically involves a series of injections into various areas of the face, including the cheeks, lips, chin and under-eyes. The injections are performed by a trained and licensed medical professional.


The goal of full facial rejuvenation with dermal fillers is to create a more youthful and refreshed appearance by restoring volume to areas that have lost it due to aging. The results can be subtle or dramatic, depending on the patient’s goals and the amount of filler used.


These are the benefits of full facial balancing:

  • Improved facial contours and symmetry
  • Reduced appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
  • Increased volume in the cheeks and lips
  • Improved under-eye appearance
  • Results that typically last for months to years, depending on the filler used.


The safety of these products has stood the test of time. The FDA approved hyaluronic fillers in 2000, and they have been used safely for over twenty years. Many studies of up to 4,000 individuals who received dermal filler injections found that HA fillers are effective and safe.


As with any cosmetic procedure, there are potential risks and side effects to consider. It’s important to discuss the risks and benefits of full facial balancing with a qualified medical professional before deciding if it’s the right choice for you.

Testosterone Replacement Therapy for Women: What You Need to Know

May 26, 2026
When most women hear the word “testosterone,” they think of men. But testosterone is a vital hormone for women too — and when levels drop, the effects can be profound, persistent, and frequently misattributed to stress, aging, or depression. If you’ve been told your labs are “normal” but you still feel exhausted, foggy, unmotivated, or disconnected from your body, low testosterone may be part of the picture.  “I’m doing everything right — and I still feel off.” If this sounds like you, your hormones may not be fully optimized.

Why Am I So Tired in My 40s? The Real Reasons No One Talks About

By Mary Dealy • May 3, 2026
You are getting a reasonable amount of sleep. You are eating well. Nothing has changed dramatically. But you are exhausted in a way that feels bone-deep, and it is getting worse, not better. If standard blood work has come back normal, you are not imagining things. You are being underserved by a testing approach that was not designed to catch the hormonal and metabolic shifts that drive fatigue in your 40s.

Bioidentical Hormone Therapy vs Synthetic — What's the Difference?

By Mary Dealy • April 24, 2026
If you are exploring hormone replacement therapy, you have probably encountered the term bioidentical hormones — and you may have gotten conflicting information about what they are, whether they are safer, and whether they are right for you. What Does Bioidentical Mean? Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical in structure to the hormones naturally produced by your body. The term refers to molecular structure — not whether a hormone is natural or synthetic in origin. Bioidentical hormones are typically derived from plant sources and processed in a lab to match your body's own hormones exactly. Synthetic hormones have a different molecular structure. The progestins used in many conventional HRT formulations — like medroxyprogesterone acetate, used in the Women's Health Initiative study — are not the same molecule as the progesterone your body produces.

Why Is My Ferritin Low and What Does It Mean?

By Mary Dealy • April 17, 2026
You went to your doctor feeling exhausted, with thinning hair and no energy, and your blood work came back normal. But did anyone check your ferritin? Ferritin is one of the most commonly overlooked markers in standard lab panels, and low ferritin is one of the most common — and most treatable — causes of fatigue and hair loss we see in our practice. What Is Ferritin? Ferritin is a protein that stores iron in your body. Think of it as your iron reserve tank. When ferritin is low, your body is running on empty — even if your hemoglobin and standard iron levels look normal. You can have low ferritin without being technically anemic.

What Is a GI-MAP Test and Do I Need One?

By Mary Dealy • April 10, 2026
If you have been struggling with bloating, unpredictable digestion, fatigue, skin issues, or just a general sense that something is off — and standard testing has come back normal — a GI-MAP test might give you the answers you have been looking for. What Is the GI-MAP Test? GI-MAP stands for Gastrointestinal Microbial Assay Plus. It is a stool test that uses advanced DNA technology to identify and measure the organisms living in your gut — including bacteria, parasites, viruses, yeast, and other pathogens that standard stool cultures often miss entirely. It also measures markers of gut inflammation, immune function, digestive enzyme activity, and intestinal permeability — what is commonly called leaky gut. What Does the GI-MAP Actually Test For?

What Are the Signs of Perimenopause?

By Mary Dealy • April 1, 2026
If you have been feeling off lately; not sleeping well, more anxious than usual, gaining weight around your middle even though nothing in your diet has changed, you might be wondering if perimenopause has something to do with it. The answer might surprise you. Perimenopause does not always announce itself with dramatic hot flashes and night sweats. For many women, it starts quietly, with symptoms that are easy to dismiss or attribute to stress, aging, or just being busy. And here is what most people do not realize: perimenopause can begin as early as your late 30s.
