• BOTOX®

  What is BOTOX? Whenever you see your reflection in the mirror, are you distressed about wrinkles and lines developing on your brow area and the skin tissue around your eyes? Commonly called dynamic lines, these skin changes occur due to repetitive facial expressions, including smiling, frowning, and squinting. As people become more mature, these wrinkles and lines eventually become more pronounced and can make them look worn down. Thanks to BOTOX Cosmetic treatments, we can often temporarily minimize the formation of moderate to severe horizontal forehead creases, frown lines, and Crow's feet. BOTOX Cosmetic uses a filtered type A strain of botulinum toxin. It works to temporarily relax the facial muscles that assist with those movements, letting the skin recover over time. At Living Water Medical Spa, our team is pleased to provide BOTOX treatments as a nonsurgical option to help patients obtain a younger-looking, refreshed appearance. We invite you to contact our Johnson City, TN or Abingdon, VA location to learn more about the benefits of BOTOX! How Does BOTOX Work? Throughout your initial treatment consultation at Living Water Medical Spa, one of our Nurse Practitioners will conduct a skin analysis to designate which areas require treatment. BOTOX is provided during a fast, in-office treatment so your injections can usually be carried out at the same appointment. The formulation will be placed into the problem areas of your brow or upper face using a fine-gauge needle. BOTOX takes approximately 5 – 10 minutes to administer, and many individuals experience only minor discomfort (like a pinching or pinprick sensation). After your appointment, you can leave our facility and go about your normal day. Smooth Unwanted Facial Lines If you're beginning to notice facial lines that give you an older appearance, BOTOX injections at Living Water Medical Spa can be an effective nonsurgical rejuvenation solution. BOTOX treatments can help relax dynamic lines and wrinkles to magnify your natural appearance. Contact our facility in Johnson City, TN or Abingdon, VA to set up an aesthetic consultation with one of our Nurse Practitioners, and learn more about attaining a rejuvenated, youthful glow!

• Laser Acne Treatment

  What is Laser Acne Treatment? Individuals often grow up hearing that beauty isn't everything. Still, as we age, we start to understand that our looks immensely affect our lives. Acne is one of the many things that influence your ability to appear happy. People who suffer from acne often have painful blemishes or inflamed lumps on their face, collarbone, upper back, shoulders, around their breasts or pectorals, and upper arms and thighs. It can considerably impact your life, not only from an aesthetic perspective but from a psychological one, too.

If required, individuals will receive protective goggles to cover their eyes. Throughout the half-hour session, a licensed member of our team will gingerly move the laser over the skin to withdraw blackheads and eliminate acne-causing microbes. You may feel some tenderness during the session, but many patients describe it as an annoying tingling sensation. The treatment helps renew your skin, enabling you to attain a beautiful complexion. Microneedling is done on the face, neck, chest, arms, hands, legs, and stomach to toughen the skin in these commonly weak areas. Using a sterilized handpiece with new needles for each patient, the technician will pass the microneedling device over the skin. As part of the patient’s individual treatment plan, once the microneedling is completed, skin care products or injectable wrinkle fillers can be applied.

• Scar Revision

  What is Scar Revision? As a very common skin issue, scars may be located on any area of the body and face. In some cases, a scar is an unwanted reminder of a wound that once existed or another condition that caused a disruption to the skin’s surface. While most scars are not an issue, certain scars are unappealing and unsightly. They may be too wide or too big, dark, bumpy, raised, or recessed. Based on where the scar is located and its condition, laser scar revision or microneedling can be performed to improve its appearance. One of our licensed team members will perform laser scar revision and microneedling at Living Water Medical Spa in Johnson City, TN or Abingdon, VA. What Can I Expect From Scar Revision Treatment? Typically, you will need multiple laser or microneedling scar treatments to get the desired results. Many patients at Living Water Medical Spa have 3 – 5 sessions several weeks apart. Your skin will begin to show improvement in 2 – 3 months as it replenishes healthy skin cells and supplemental collagen and elastin your body will naturally produce. With these treatments, you should have minimal downtime (less than 4 – 5 days). You should feel fine to continue your normal routine. We recommend that you have a laser scar treatment over a long weekend if it is in a visible spot (your face). Improve Your Scar's Appearance If you have an unsightly scar that bothers you, Living Water Medical Spa has numerous procedures to make it less obvious.

• Laser Vein Removal

  What is Laser Vein Removal? Usually located on the legs and face, spider veins are little, branching blood vessels that are visible underneath the skin. Caused by many factors, like genetics and age, spider veins may be red, blue, and purple, which makes them difficult to mask. As these veins typically multiply over the years and lead to stronger visibility, getting help at the first signs is important. To reduce the look of spider veins on the body and face, Living Water Medical Spa performs noninvasive laser vein removal sessions for women and men. In your private consultation, Dr. John Berry or one of our Nurse Practitioners can create a customized plan to meet your needs and goals for your laser vein treatment. What is Our Laser Vein Removal Technique? Laser vein reduction treatments are performed in our Johnson City, TN or our Abingdon, VA office in around 20 – 40 minutes based on the number of treated areas. During your laser vein reduction, you will be asked to relax in a reclined position in a private treatment room as the skin is cleansed and prepared. At your request, a local numbing cream may be used before your session to minimize any discomfort. The laser is passed across the area so the energy can reach the spider veins through a series of pulses that don't affect the surrounding tissues. The abnormal blood vessel soaks in the laser's energy, which collapses and closes the wall of the vessel. You can leave our office right after the treatment to resume your regular day. Remove Spider Veins Instead of concealing or covering unattractive blood vessels on your face and body, learn about nonsurgical laser vein reduction treatments at Living Water Medical Spa in Johnson City, TN or Abingdon, VA to improve the appearance of your skin. In your initial consultation, Dr. Berry or one of our Nurse Practitioners can examine your skin and develop a custom treatment plan that best addresses your condition.

Dr. John Berry or one of our Nurse Practitioners performs sclerotherapy to reduce or remove visible spider veins on the face or body. A minimally invasive procedure with no downtime for recovery, sclerotherapy may give you more beautiful skin that you can show off in short shorts.

A fine-gauge needle will be introduced into the vein, and the sclerosing solution will be applied. The needle will be removed, and a bandage will be put over the injection site to stop any bleeding. The process can be repeated to treat all spider veins. Banish Spider Veins The unwanted spider veins on your body and face can be frustrating as they get bigger over the years so learn more about sclerotherapy at Living Water Medical Spa in Johnson City, TN or Abingdon, VA to address your problem.

• Cellulite Reduction

  What Is Cellulite Reduction? Cellulite commonly occurs on the thighs, belly, or butt, causing a bumpy, "cottage cheese" texture on the skin. Since cellulite results from the accumulation of fat cells under the skin's surface, this obstacle is usually hard to address by yourself. Living Water Medical Spa, offers minimally invasive cellulite reduction procedures with cutting-edge laser technology for a noticeable lessening in the perceptibility of cellulite.

Before the treatment, One of our Nurse Practitioners will use a marker to differentiate your affected locations. Following this, local numbing cream will be applied to numb the area being addressed, and then a very small laser device will be placed into the skin. The warmth from the laser loosens the fat and relaxes the fibrous bands that create cellulite. The procedure can normally be done in less than an hour. In most circumstances, individuals should be able to proceed with their daily schedule one day after the appointment. Smooth Away Cellulite A lot of people are bothered by the pesky "orange peel" look of cellulite on the skin. Even though there are no actual methods for reducing cellulite, the impressive procedures used at Living Water Medical Spa could help remarkably reduce its appearance.

• Laser Hair Removal

  What is Laser Hair Removal? Laser hair removal has become one of America's most popular cosmetic treatments.

This laser treatment usually leaves the skin looking and feeling smoother and produces long-lasting results compared to other options for hair removal. Living Water Medical Spa performs safe and effective laser hair removal treatments for both men and women in Johnson City, TN or Abingdon, VA in commonly desired areas, such as the arms, back, legs, face, chest, and bikini area. What is the Laser Hair Removal Technique? On the day of your procedure, you can lie in a private treatment room where areas of your face and body are washed to remove oil, dirt, and lotion. During the procedure, a licensed technician will stretch out the area to provide a clear pathway between the hair follicle root and the laser. The laser beam will target and disable the hair follicle, which stops it from growing again. Usually, you will need a few sessions over a month or longer to get your optimal results. Your treatments are staggered to allow the treated areas a chance to recover. This also allows time for hair follicles that were in the dormant phase to change to the phase of active growth so the laser can be effective. The revolutionary laser hair removal technology we use at Living Water Medical Spa can target the hair follicle alone, preserving the skin in the treated area. Treat Unwanted Hair Follicles Today If you're tired of wasting energy, money, and time on shaving, waxing, and plucking, make an appointment to hear more about laser hair removal sessions at Living Water Medical Spa in Johnson City, TN or Abingdon, VA.

• Microneedling

  What is Microneedling? When over-the-counter skin products aren't effective, but you don't want surgical procedures, learn more about nonsurgical treatments to rejuvenate the skin, like microneedling. Using the innovative Morpheus8™ device, our team is thrilled to offer radiofrequency (RF) microneedling. RF treatments have been around for years and are well-known in the cosmetic industry for their skin tightening effects.

Collagen induction therapy procedures can also minimize the look of stretch marks, scars, and pores. You should be willing to wait before seeing the results of your microneedling treatment since the elastin and collagen require some time to have an impact on the skin; however, you will see results that look natural and gain healthier overall skin. What to Expect From Microneedling When the Morpheus8 RF microneedling session is finished, you can expect tiny, pinpoint scabs to appear 24 – 72 hours post-procedure, which will fall off when the underlying skin heals. Enhancements are expected to be visible when skin recovers over a month after having a Morpheus8 treatment. For the best possible results, the team at Living Water Medical Spa usually recommends having 3 – 4 treatments spaced 3 – 4 weeks apart. What Should I Expect After Microneedling? After your treatment, you may have mild redness and swelling for about a day, but this should resolve quickly on its own. It may take around 1 – 2 months as your skin's collagen and elastin levels increase before you see visible changes in the health and appearance of your complexion. You should schedule about 4 – 6 maintenance sessions performed every 4 – 6 weeks for ideal outcomes and long-term skin health.

Since every patient's smile is different, we will assess each one — including their cosmetic goals and lifestyle — in order to create a personalized treatment plan. In most circumstances, your in-office teeth whitening treatments will be performed in less than one hour through the application of a professional-strength whitening gel, combined with the technology of a lighting system that quickly cures and whitens the teeth several shades. Afterwards, your results will only continue to grow throughout the following weeks and months.

• Waxing

  What is Waxing? Waxing is a great alternative for men and women who are tired of shaving daily. Waxing removes the hair in a targeted area and the follicle from the root using special wax solutions and soft linen cloths. The result is a smooth, clear, hairless outcome lasting up to six weeks. Our licensed Aestheticians at Living Water Medical Spa offers various spa services, including professional waxing. Hair removal by waxing treats numerous areas of the face and the body, such as the eyebrows and legs. Book your appointment today at our Johnson City, TN or Abingdon, VA office. What Can I Expect During a Waxing Appointment? Patients should arrive for their appointment at Living Water Medical Spa with hair in the chosen area at least ¼ inch long and untrimmed. Once the area is cleaned and disinfected to remove excess oil that may prevent the wax from sticking, the wax is applied and then covered with cloth strips. When ready, a member of our team will peel away the wax strip in the direction opposite of the natural hair growth. After removing all the strips, the aesthetician will clean off any residue, tweeze stray hairs, and apply a soothing healing ointment.
