Enhance your natural beauty safely with expert care at ThinkRestore.
Learn more about our unique approach to BOTOX® and JUVÉDERM® treatments from our skilled providers.
Considering aesthetic treatments but unsure where to start? ThinkRestore at Think Whole Person Healthcare offers a welcoming and safe environment for exploring options. We recently chatted with Katie Peterson and Jessica Grosse, Physician Assistants specializing in Family Medicine and Internal Medicine at think who are also skilled providers at ThinkRestore. They shared their insights on BOTOX® and JUVÉDERM® treatments, why a holistic approach matters in aesthetics, and the unique value ThinkRestore brings to the Omaha area.
Let’s go to the interview.
What is ThinkRestore?
ThinkRestore was created to offer restorative aesthetic services within the established, professional medical environment of Think Whole Person Healthcare. Unlike some spas or other providers, ThinkRestore prioritizes safety and integrates aesthetics into a holistic approach to well-being. Current offerings include BOTOX®, JUVÉDERM® Dermal Fillers, and Skinceuticals skin care products. There are plans to expand ThinkRestore’s services soon too, with all services delivered under the same medical model.
What is your role at ThinkRestore?
We specialize in aesthetic facial treatments, including BOTOX® for smoothing wrinkles and JUVÉDERM® fillers for enhancing facial features. While the two of us don’t specialize in the Skinceuticals products, they are available through ThinkRestore for comprehensive skincare solutions.
What makes ThinkRestore different from other facial aesthetic providers?
Our complete focus on safety and natural results sets us apart. We exclusively use FDA-approved products for treatments administered only in approved areas and quantities. Our goal is to enhance your natural beauty, not create a dramatically different appearance. Additionally, we are PA-Cs with a commitment to patient education and informed decision-making. There’s no pressure to choose a specific treatment or product, and we ensure you understand all options before proceeding.
What is BOTOX®?
Interestingly, the discovery of BOTOX® has a surprising origin story. Dr. Justinus Kerner, a 19th-century physician, first encountered the toxin while investigating a series of fatal sausage poisonings in Germany. He observed similar muscle paralysis symptoms in the victims, which eventually led him to isolate the substance now known as botulinum toxin.
Today BOTOX® is a purified protein derived from a bacterium. It works by temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles, and smoothing wrinkles and lines in areas like the forehead, frown lines, and crow’s feet. At ThinkRestore we strictly adhere to these FDA-approved injection sites and ensure each vial is freshly mixed for optimal effectiveness and safety. Other providers may perform BOTOX®® injections in other areas, but they are not FDA-approved and carry unnecessary risks so we do not.
What is JUVÉDERM®?
JUVÉDERM® is a brand name for hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers. HA is a naturally occurring substance in the body that provides volume and hydration to the skin. JUVÉDERM® offers various fillers, such as JUVÉDERM®® Voluma XC for cheeks, JUVÉDERM®® Volbella XC for smoothing lips, and JUVÉDERM®® Ultra XC for plumping lips.
Who is a good candidate for these treatments?
Both BOTOX® and JUVÉDERM® are suitable for men and women aged 21 and above (as per FDA regulations). While we commonly see patients in their thirties to sixties, we’ve treated individuals as young as 21 and as mature as their 80s. Ultimately, a consultation will determine if you’re a good candidate based on your specific goals and medical history.
What kind of results can be expected from these treatments?
BOTOX® injections offer visible improvements within a few days, with full results typically achieved in 14 days. The treatment relaxes targeted facial muscles, smoothing wrinkles and lines around the treatment area which can include forehead, frown lines, and crow’s feet. You can expect these effects to last for 3-4 months.
JUVÉDERM® fillers provide immediate volume restoration and contour enhancement. Different JUVÉDERM®® products address specific concerns. We typically use JUVÉDERM®® Voluma XC to add volume to cheeks, JUVÉDERM®® Volbella XC for smoothing lips, and JUVÉDERM®® Ultra XC for plumping lips. JUVÉDERM® results typically last 12-24 months depending on the product used and your individual body chemistry.
Does ThinkRestore offer personalized consultations for what treatments are best?
Absolutely. We offer personalized consultations that typically last around 30 minutes. During the consultation, we discuss your concerns, desired outcomes, and medical history. BOTOX® can usually be administered the same day, while fillers usually require a follow-up appointment to receive the product, which is ordered fresh for each patient.
Why is a holistic approach important in facial aesthetics?
ThinkRestore views aesthetics as part of a holistic approach to well-being. Self-care plays a significant role in self-image and mental health. Sometimes, a subtle enhancement can significantly improve your confidence and overall well-being. It’s like putting on your favorite outfit; it’s not essential, but it can positively impact your mood and self-esteem. These treatments are elective, but the positive impact on mental and emotional well-being through improved appearance can be substantial.
How does ThinkRestore ensure the safety and effectiveness of its treatments?
Safety is paramount at ThinkRestore. We only use FDA-approved products administered in approved areas. We are PAs with advanced medical training, ensuring your treatments are performed by skilled and knowledgeable professionals. Additionally, we prioritize natural results and will not recommend excessive filler or BOTOX® to achieve or maintain your natural beauty. There’s no financial incentive for us to push products or procedures – our focus is on your safety and achieving natural, lasting results. Our focus on quality may not result in the lowest price you find, but you’ll have complete confidence in the legitimacy of the products, the expertise of your injectors, and our commitment to your safety and long-term satisfaction.
How does ThinkRestore fit into the Think Whole Person Healthcare model?
ThinkRestore complements the Think Whole Person Healthcare model by offering aesthetic services in a safe, medically supervised environment. We believe self-care through aesthetic treatments can positively impact mental and emotional well-being.
What advice would you give someone considering aesthetic treatments for the first time?
We recommend a consultation! You don’t need to come in with a specific plan. Just share your concerns, and we’ll discuss all available options and pricing. We also offer a 20% discount on your first treatment.
Lastly, why should someone considering aesthetic treatments choose ThinkRestore?
We prioritize natural results and use only FDA-approved products in approved areas. Our skilled medical professionals ensure your safety and well-being. You can trust ThinkRestore for quality treatments and honest advice.
