A Highland Park Resident’s Guide to the Most-Requested Aesthetic Treatments
Highland Park patients tend to describe what they want the same way: natural, not noticeable. That preference shapes everything we do at Sanjiva Medical Spa, located just five minutes from Highland Park Village on Lovers Lane.
As the physician-owner of Sanjiva Medical Spa, I have spent three and a half years tracking what works for Park Cities patients—and what does not. The brief is consistent: visible improvement in skin quality, subtle volume restoration, body composition results that match the effort they put in at the gym, and predictable downtime that fits around school calendars, galas, and travel. Maintenance and refinement, not reinvention.

Here are the treatments our Highland Park patients request most, and how to think about each one.
Botox and Dysport
Botox and Dysport neuromodulators are our most-requested treatment across the Park Cities patient base. Most patients we see have been on a Botox or Dysport schedule for some time—the conversation has shifted to which product, what dose, and what cadence keeps results consistent without flattening expression. We often use both across the same patient depending on the muscle group. All neuromodulator treatments are performed by experienced, certified nurse injectors under physician oversight.
Lip Filler
Lip filler requests in Highland Park have shifted noticeably. Patients are asking for definition—border, philtral columns, proportion—not size. We use a conservative approach, typically 0.5–1.0 mL per session, layered over time. The goal is that no one notices the work.
HydraFacial
HydraFacial is the workhorse maintenance treatment for our Park Cities patients. Thirty to 45 minutes, zero recovery, visible improvement in tone and texture. Most useful as monthly skin maintenance between bigger interventions or as a pre-event treatment 48 hours before a wedding, gala, or photo. We pair it with targeted boosters—Britenol for pigment, Dermabuilder for fine lines, ZO 3-Step Peel for a stronger result.
Emsculpt NEO
Park Cities patients tend to be active. Emsculpt NEO works as a complement to that effort—pairing HIFEM muscle stimulation with radiofrequency to address muscle definition and subcutaneous fat in a single 30-minute session. Four sessions over four weeks, with results developing over the following 8–12 weeks. Particularly useful for postpartum core recovery and gym plateaus.
Halo Hybrid Fractional Laser
Halo is our flagship resurfacing treatment and the highest-impact single intervention we offer. It combines two wavelengths—one ablative for surface texture and pores, one non-ablative for deeper collagen remodeling—with controllable downtime of 3–5 days. Sanjiva runs the full Sciton JOULE platform, so Halo can be paired with BBL HERO in the same visit for sun damage and pigment correction.
Best for: sun damage, fine lines, enlarged pores, dull tone, acne scars, age spots, texture.
Sculptra
Sculptra has become the treatment of choice for patients who want to avoid the over-filled look. Instead of adding volume directly, it triggers your own collagen production over 8–12 weeks. The result is subtle facial restoration that looks structural, not inflated. We typically recommend two to three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, with maintenance every 18–24 months.
SkinPen Microneedling
SkinPen is the only microneedling device with FDA clearance for facial acne scars and neck wrinkles. It is our go-to for textural concerns the laser cannot fully address—rolling acne scars, post-inflammatory texture, stretch marks—and the top choice for patients with darker skin types (Fitzpatrick IV–VI) who are not ideal candidates for ablative laser. We frequently combine SkinPen microneedling with PRF or Exosomes in the same session to amplify the collagen response.
EZGel PRF
EZGel PRF is a 100% autologous treatment—drawn from your own blood—that produces a platelet-rich fibrin gel used as both a natural biostimulator and soft-tissue volumizer. Common applications include under-eye hollows, fine lines around the mouth, and neck texture. No risk of allergic reaction or product migration.
What a Park Cities Consult Looks Like
Most new patients book a complimentary consult before committing to anything. Here is what that visit involves:
-
- First 10 minutes: Skin and concern assessment under proper lighting, plus a brief medical history.
-
- Next 10 minutes: Your priorities, timeline, event calendar, and budget for the year.
-
- Final 10 minutes: A sequenced plan with transparent pricing, expected results, and realistic timing. You leave with a written summary.
There is no obligation to book at your visit. If a treatment is better handled somewhere else, we will tell you.
