Is your complexion in a rut, bogged down by the greasy grime of sunscreen and humidity? It’s time to reclaim your vibrant skin with a few easy skin care treatments.
For a quick summer skin pick-me-up, we proudly offer the award-winning HydraFacial MD® Elite. This is the most advanced HydraFacial technology available, and it’s the perfect non-invasive, no-downtime treatment to revitalize clogged, lackluster summer skin.
HydraFacial MD Elite exfoliates dead skin cells, extracts impurities, and infuses skin with replenishing hydration and intensely revitalizing nutrients. In 30 minutes, you’ll have smoother, more evenly-toned skin. Plus, you’ll notice a range of other benefits, including smaller pore size, diminished lines and wrinkles, reduced blemishes and redness, and much more.
We also offer the PRP Facial for a 100% natural way to rejuvenate dull, drab skin. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a potent portion of your own blood packed with healing agents and growth factors. These amazing proteins help stimulate healing, encourage cellular turnover, and even promote new collagen production.
The PRP Facial begins with microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, to prepare the skin for topical PRP application. By creating thousands of tiny micro-injuries on the skin’s surface, your PRP is better absorbed and able to work its magic more effectively. A PRP Facial leaves your skin looking radiant and feeling silky smooth.
Last, but far from least — our #1 summer skin care tip is sunscreen, sunscreen, and more sunscreen! The sun is responsible for up to 90% of your skin’s aging, so wearing sunscreen is the most important thing you can do for your skin to prevent the signs of aging. Always use a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or greater with both UVA and UVB (or broad spectrum) protection.
We want to help you enjoy your best skin in the summer and all year long, no matter what your age, skin type, or experience with sun exposure. Find out more by calling 203-445-0101 or requesting your consultation today!
Bodies come in all shapes and sizes. But when the weather’s hot and you want to head to the beach or the pool, certain fat bulges (hello, belly!) or lax skin (hey there, knee wrinkles!) can be hard to love.
If you’re ready to put on your new swim suit without having to worry about saddle bags or cellulite, it’s time to schedule a non-invasive body sculpting treatment with Women’s Choice Aesthetics.
We believe in results which is why we offer one of the most efficient and comfortable fat reduction solutions on the market — truSculpt® iD, which can reduce up to 24 percent of targeted fat cells, on average, in one 15-minute treatment! truSculpt iD targets fat with non-invasive radiofrequency energy, killing unwanted fat cells in a relaxing session that feels like a hot stone massage. You’ll see results within 4 to 12 weeks, with a series of treatments for your best results.
Another body sculpting tool we love for beach season is skin tightening. If you’re bothered by lax, wrinkled skin or cellulite, we can help tighten and smooth your skin with two effective options. EndyMed™ 3Deep Skin Tightening uses non-invasive radiofrequency energy to tighten skin from deep within the skin’s structure. Collagen production is heightened as a result of this process, resulting in smoother, tighter skin without surgery or downtime.
The PRP Facial is another effective skin smoothing solution. PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma, a concentrated portion of your very own blood that has regenerative powers for the skin. The PRP Facial starts with microneedling to create the perfect canvas for maximum absorption of your PRP. Your blood is drawn and your PRP is isolated in a centrifuge and then applied to the face, resulting in tighter, brighter skin.
A series of PRP with Microneedling treatments can help smooth stubborn stretch marks and acne scars. You can also combine PRP with almost any other skin treatment to maximize and personally tailor your results. We’ll help you devise the ideal regimen for your unique needs and goals.

We hate to say it, but not all injectable treatments are created equal. The skill of your injector can make all the difference. While no one can promise zero side effects and no downtime, an experienced injector knows how to minimize side effects like swelling and bruising while also tailoring your treatment to your specific facial contours so you achieve the most flattering results.
Here are some expert tips for bringing out your best with FDA-approved Botox®/Dysport® and dermal fillers:
Booze is a blood thinner, which enhances your risk for bruising. To reduce bruising, you should cut out all substances that cause bleeding or blood thinning at least a full week before your treatment. Besides alcohol, common blood thinning substances include non-steroidal anti-inflammatories like aspirin, green tea, ginger, garlic, ginkgo biloba, turmeric, and vitamin E.
Cooling your treatment areas literally shrinks your blood vessels, which reduces your risk of bruising. Here’s why: Smaller blood vessels are less likely to be hit by the injectable needle during treatment, which is what causes a bruise to form. By the same token, icing your treatment area both before and after your session also helps to minimize swelling.
The easiest way to know if you’re going to like your results is viewing before & after photos. Pictures are worth a thousand words. You’ll know in an instant if an injector is skilled at providing natural-looking, flattering enhancement. If the pictures are not in sync with your taste or expectations, keep looking for the injector who’s perfect for you!
We proudly provide the highest level of injectables treatments in Connecticut to bring out your absolute best with ease. Schedule your consultation today by calling 203-445-0101 or requesting a consultation online.
What’s the #1 summer health hazard? If you guessed UV rays, you are right! The sun is responsible for most cases of skin cancer. It’s also responsible for most signs of your skin’s aging—up to 90 percent! Without a doubt, applying sunscreen on a daily basis is your skin’s most important health and beauty weapon. That said, here are a few more tips for enjoying a happy and healthy summer:
Nothing increases your skin cancer risk more or prematurely ages you than sunburns. But if you do get a sunburn, don’t forget to hydrate! Sunburned skin increases your risk for dehydration and heat stroke, so be sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day and stay in the shade.
You’re most susceptible to collecting ticks after hikes in wooded areas or playing in the yard with your dog. Ticks are easy to miss, roughly the size of a speck of pepper. Fortunately, it takes 36 to 48 hours for most ticks to attach and transmit the Lyme disease bacterium. You can dramatically reduce your risk of infection by bathing within two hours after your outdoor adventures, which will rinse any unattached ticks away. Other proven preventives include wearing insect repellent with DEET and wearing long sleeved shirts and pants tucked in with socks.
Did you know that watermelon contains more lycopene than tomatoes, and that it can help to enhance your skin’s natural defenses against the sun? Other skin-protecting foods that are high in antioxidants and other skin-enhancing nutrients include blueberries, leafy greens like spinach, carrots, avocados, green tea, nuts and seeds, dark chocolate, and cauliflower.
Keep in mind that foods are NOT a substitute for regular SPF application, but they can certainly enhance your skin’s health, not to mention your total body health!

Every bride deserves to glow on her wedding day. Unfortunately, amid the hectic pace of wedding planning, it’s easy for a bride to become a victim of well-intentioned beauty treatments gone wrong. To help you achieve radiant perfection on your special day—and every day!—here’s a list of must-do treatments along with optimal timing tips:
The following aesthetic treatments are effective yet so gentle and free from side effects that you can schedule them close to your wedding day:
HydraFacial® MD Elite is the world’s favorite complexion pick-me-up, simultaneously cleaning, exfoliating and replenishing your dermis for a head-turning glow. For your best-looking skin, you can schedule a HydraFacial for the day of your wedding, if so desired.
truSculpt® iD This non-invasive fat reduction and skin tightening treatment utilizes radiofrequency energy to tone and tighten your “problem spots.” Because there are no invasive measures or downtime, you can schedule truSculpt any time before your wedding. To see optimal benefits, however, we recommend scheduling your truSculpt iD at least a month or two before your special day.
EndyMed™ 3DEEP tightens skin anywhere you need it (face, neck, décolétage, upper arms, abdomen, hips and buttocks) with non-invasive radiofrequency energy. With no downtime, you can undergo a treatment weeks before your wedding for improvements you’ll notice on your honeymoon.
Botox®/Dysport® and dermal fillers are a favorite among brides for smoothing wrinkles, enhancing lips, and so much more. FDA-cleared injectables do involve some downtime, however. Many patients experience swelling for at least a week, along with slight bruising or pinpoint bleeding. For this reason, injectables are NOT the treatment to schedule close to your wedding. To play it safe, schedule your injectable session a full month or two before you walk down the aisle to give your injectables a chance to fully settle into your contours and any side effects to fully subside.
Whether it’s a chemical peel or laser skin rejuvenation, your skin needs a full month to recover from these popular skin revitalizers. We are not implying that you’ll experience downtime for a full month. Rather, your skin needs about a month to fully renew itself. After all, the growth of vibrant, new collagen and elastin is a gradual process! To experience optimal benefits for your special day, scheduling any skin resurfacing treatment a good month or two in advance is key.
Stick with the experts in aesthetics to look and feel amazing on your wedding day! You deserve it! We have so many proven treatments, we can’t wait for you to learn about them all! Schedule your consultation today by calling 203-445-0101 or requesting a consultation online.

Achieving gorgeous skin is our business, and underlying every radiant complexion is healthy skin. You simply can’t have a luminous glow without health!
In honor of Skin Cancer Awareness Month, we’d like to boost your skin health with a few easy tips from the Skin Cancer Foundation.
This is not optional. Applying sunscreen every day of the year is your first and foremost line of defense against skin cancer. Most cases of skin cancer are caused by exposure to UV rays, which means you have a lot more control than you think! You can dramatically decrease your risk simply by protecting your skin from the sun with daily sunscreen application. It’s truly that simple
Have you always had that mole? Was that freckle there last year? Being familiar with the normal variations in your skin will help you to better spot the irregularities that promptly need a doctor’s attention. Be on the lookout for the ABCDE’s of skin cancer:
A is for an Asymmetrical mole
B is for a Border without clean lines
C is for Color that is varied—irregular moles are multi-colored, i.e., red, brown, and black
D is for a Diameter that is larger than the eraser on a pencil tip
E is for Evolution—healthy moles do not change in shape, size or elevation
Once a year, see your dermatologist or primary care physician for a routine skin cancer screening. The earlier skin cancer is diagnosed, the easier it is to treat! Early detection can save your life!
Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in America, affecting 1 in 5 adults by age 70. Fortunately, skin cancer is also one of the most preventable cancers!
