We’re going to talk about Botox and fillers today. What we often hear is “what’s the difference between Botox and fillers?” The two are essentially two different things that work together in harmony, but Botox is a medicine that relaxes the muscle while the filler is a substance that has volume. It’s a clear gel, supporting the skin, and helping the skin remodel. Let’s look at a few real-world examples to help us understand the difference a little more. Difference Between Botox And Fillers with The Soft Lift Jessica wanted to look refreshed and more youthful. We did an assessment […]

What is it? We know hydra means water – and we all (should) wash our faces with water. So what exactly is a HydraFacial and how does it use H20 to rejuvenate the skin in its process differently than simply washing? You don’t have to expect being shot in the face with a power washer to get Hydra Facial results. The HydraFacial system works to exfoliate the top layers of the skin with a motorized device that removes dead cells, extracts impurities, and deposits hydration into your skin at the same time. Think of this treatment as a soothing, refreshing, […]

Exfoliation – it’s not just for your rough, cracked heels or winter regimen. If you’re not already pairing professional exfoliation treatments with a gentle home care exfoliant then what are you even doing? Sure, you may have invested in a rich moisturizer paired with a hydrating serum, but if you’re not exfoliating away dead skin cells weekly there is more skin for your hydrators to have to get through! If improved absorption of active home care products wasn’t enough to convince you that you need facial exfoliation as part of a regular skincare regimen, here are a few more facts […]

Summer days are finally here and we want you to have the best skin on the beach! Should you change your skincare regimen for summer? Absolutely! You should be changing your skincare regimen with every season the same way you change your clothes. You wouldn’t wear flip-flops in the winter months so why would you use the same moisturizer? Your skin reacts to the environment that you live in so in the summer months, the humidity makes your skin retain moisture and therefore need to switch to a lightweight moisturizer (we recommend AlumierMD HydraLight $64). Can you do treatments during […]

What’s the difference between chemical and physical sunscreens? There is a lot of debate about which is the best choice to keep you sun safe so we decided to do a comparison. What is a chemical sunscreen? A chemical sunscreen absorbs into the skin and then absorbs the UV rays. Once absorbed, it transforms the rays into heat and expels them from your body. Essentially, chemical sunscreens contain chemical ingredients like Avobenzone and Octinoxate. This type of sunscreen is often preferred because it has a thinner consistency and spreads nicely all over the skin. One thing we can’t ignore in […]

Do you have an embarrassing tattoo? Don’t worry you’re not alone! Whether it’s a past lovers name or a truth or dare night gone wrong, our tattoo removal procedure will help you wipe the slate clean! In SharpLight’s tattoo removal treatments and equipment, a laser technology is used to target the ink of the tattoo and to apply localized pulses of light, aimed to decompose the tattoo’s pigment clusters.
