Shifting Away from the “Done” Look

The “done” look—marked by stiff expressions, overfilled features, and a loss of natural harmony—is exactly what today’s patients are moving away from.

“Patients want to look like the best version of themselves—naturally youthful, not noticeably done,” says Linda Behla, RN, Founder and Clinical Director at Hayes Valley Medical Esthetics (HVME). Social media, especially post-COVID, has influenced a wave of patients rethinking and reversing procedures that no longer feel right.

Refined Results Through Modern Treatments

There’s growing demand for more natural, balanced results. Collagen-stimulating treatments like Sculptra, and advanced skin rejuvenation devices like Ultherapy Prime and the Fotona laser, offer powerful yet subtle results.

HVME is among the first in Marin to offer Evolysse, a cutting-edge injectable hyaluronic acid gel that restores youthful volume naturally, along with Jeuveau, a neuromodulator known for its quick onset and soft, natural look.
