With summer in full swing, it’s time to get out and enjoy the long, sunny days while looking and feeling your best. San Diego is home to some world-class aestheticians, plastic surgeons, and dermatologists who can give you exactly the results you’re seeking. Whether you’re hoping to peel back the years on the outside with a state-of-the-art facelift or cosmetic laser or fine-tune your internal care regimen with IV therapy and vitamin infusions, there’s a treatment out there for everyone—from veterans of aesthetic medical care to those just beginning to look into what lasers and injectables can do for them.
Even the most transformative procedures are becoming increasingly downtime-free. You can spend less time recovering and more time enjoying your revitalized face and body.

The center is best known for its three-laser, single-session Take10, which removes 10+ years from patients’ faces without the risks, scarring, or long recovery times associated with going under the knife.
