When you age, your skin follows. Common age-related concerns include crow's feet, wrinkles, frown lines, or skin discoloration. Many of these concerns can be treated with our non-surgical procedures.
Unwanted hair on your face or body can make life difficult. Unfortunately, traditional forms of hair removal such as shaving, waxing, and sugaring can require time-consuming, painful upkeep. Laser hair removal can dramatically reduce hair growth anywhere on your body, including your back, legs, bikini line, rear end, and face.
Spa procedures can also address medical conditions like rosacea, acne, and acne scarring. Our plastic surgeon will thoroughly evaluate your condition to ensure that treatment is the right fit.
Varicose veins can make your face and legs look blotchy and uneven, leaving you feeling too uncomfortable to wear certain clothes.
Skin resurfacing can dramatically improve the health and appearance of your skin in just one session followed by a few days of downtime.

BBL, or BroadBand Light, is one of the most powerful technologies available to address signs of aging, sun damage, and other blemishes. The BBL Forever Young Fotofacial has quickly become one of the most popular treatments at our practice because it is clinically proven to keep skin looking young for longer than IPL and other similar treatments.
Laser hair removal is a popular alternative to traditional methods of hair removal like shaving and waxing. Our team uses the Forever Bare BBL™ by Sciton to safely and effectively conduct laser hair removal. With regular sessions, laser hair removal can significantly reduce hair growth.
Our practice is equipped with the gold standard in laser technology—the Sciton JOULE erbium laser. Dr. Passaretti can use this laser to dramatically reduce the appearance of wrinkles all the way up to the lash line. The procedure is only performed under the care of Dr. Passaretti. To keep the treatment comfortable and pain-free, patients who undergo this treatment will receive light sedation. Although deep laser resurfacing has a longer downtime compared to other treatments, the results are impressive and long-lasting.
Our spa team can use this technology to remove damaged scar tissue and improve the appearance of scarred dermal tissue.

Needles are an outdated method of administering dermal fillers. For some patients, they lead to unnecessary negative side effects like bruising and pain.
When injecting dermal fillers into the lips, cheeks, and under the eyes, Dr. Passaretti uses a new microcannula technique. A microcannula is a tiny blunt tube that offers several advantages compared to traditional, outdated techniques:
Because the microcannula technique requires a more experienced injector, patients visit Dr. Passaretti from all over the state to enjoy the benefits of this modern tool.
"Starting with my initial consultation all the way through my 3 month post op visit, I was always welcomed with a smile and felt comfortable to any ask questions that I had. Dr. Passaretti and his staff are all true professionals and deeply care about their patients and take pride in their work."

We provide a wide range of spa treatments from glycolic peels, which soften fine lines and wrinkles, to chemical peels, which tighten and renew the facial tissues.

Our team uses the SkinPen® microneedling device by Bellus Medical. SkinPen is the first microneedling device approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). While older microneedling devices are reused from patient to patient, increasing the risk of contamination and skin damage, the SkinPen is a single-use device. By creating thousands of tiny injuries on the surface of the skin, SkinPen encourages collagen production and new skin growth. Microneedling is safe for all skin types and is currently the preferred treatment for acne scars and injury scars throughout the face and body.
Microneedling is a procedure that resurfaces your skin. It is a minimally invasive treatment that stimulates your lower layers of skin to produce additional foundational healing substances such as collagen and elastin, resulting in more youthful-looking, tighter skin.

At The Aesthetic Center, we want to keep treatments as safe and comfortable as possible. In addition to offering light sedation for our more invasive treatments, we use a cryo chiller to deliver cool air to the treatment area during the procedure.
