Heather Witt, PA-C

…
✨Rhinoplasty + Lower Bleph
✨Medical grade skincare for pigment control
✨Microneedling + PRF injections every 3 months for collagen stimulation and smooth skin

…
Aside from the cosmetic treatments I’ve had done, I stopped tanning and went back blonde! And yes, my brows and eyelashes are blonde too, so I also have:
✨Microbladed eyebrows
✨Lash extensions
✨Lip blush
…
How many did you get right? Let me know down below👇🏼
I’m BACK!✨I’ve gone through a lot of life changes recently and took some time away from social media to focus on my career, have a baby, and start my own med spa! I’m so excited to share more about my new space with all of you and treat your lovely faces. Let me first take a moment to reintroduce myself:
I am the founder of .aesthetic.retreat 💉I am a board-certified Physician Assistant and an advanced aesthetic injector with a master’s degree from the Western University of Health Sciences. I truly believe that aesthetic treatments can and should be done beautifully and naturally and have built my practice around this very philosophy. I specialize in customizing well-rounded treatment plans for each patient in order to elevate natural beauty, refresh the face, and help my patients age gracefully.
•
I have been in the aesthetic industry for 12 years. During this time, I have continued to learn, grow, and improve my injection techniques by attending countless industry conferences and trainings. I have also assisted during the live webinar launch of the Juvéderm Volbella indication for the tear troughs with Medical Institute.
•
I have a passion for education and dedicate ample time to each patient to discuss all aspects of their aesthetic journey. Remember, beauty is a marathon, not a sprint.
•
In my free time, I enjoy fitness, traveling, brunching, and spending time with my adorable daughter, Olivia.💝

39 weeks and 5 days...it’s been way too long. We are ready to meet you Baby Witt 👶🏼🎀
A few of our favorites from our maternity shoot with 🤰🏼💕🎀
🤰🏼Baby Witt Bumpdate! 👶🏼 6 more weeks to go! 💕03/19/21💕
👶
The day couldn’t have been any more perfect 💕👶🏻💕 So excited to meet baby Witt in March 2021. Let the name deciding begin 😊
3...2...1...💕It’s a GIRL💕
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The amazing 24-inch “fire-proof” CO2 cannons from were so much fun!
💕It’s a GIRL💕 Thank you so much to everyone who made it to our reveal in person, via zoom, or in spirit! We had such an amazing day! Thank you to for helping us reveal our baby girl! The 24” cannons were a blast! (no pun intended)
Neuromodulators like Botox and Dysport relax muscle movement, causing the muscle to have the opposite effect as it normally does. For example, the normal function of the forehead muscle is to lift or elevate the brows. When treated, the forehead is relaxed and can actually push down on the brows, flatten the arch of the brow, or make the brows heavy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But don’t worry, we can treat other areas to counteract this affect and actually lift the brows 😊👍🏼

*Disclaimer: sorry I spelled orbicularis oculi wrong in the video! 🤦🏼♀️
I have easily fallen 💕IN LOVE💕 with the newest lip filler, Restylane Kysse. It provides amazing structure and volume by giving height for my smaller lipped patients. Never before has a product been able to give smaller lips such a pop without weighing them down. Absolutely stunning! 💋
Happy Labor Day Weekend! We’re excited to announce that we will be celebrating another Labor Day very soon!

Baby Witt coming March 2021 💖👶🏻💙
🔍What is PRP? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is the most natural method of rejuvenating the skin by using the plasma portion of the blood that contains platelets (hence the name) and stem cells that act as natural growth factors.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💉 How is PRP Obtained⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your blood is drawn and then spun in a centrifuge machine, causing the plasma portion (yellow in the picture) to separate from the red blood cells.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
❓What Can You Do With it?
-PRP Injections (PRF is even better!)
-Microneedling (“vampire facial”)
-Treatment for hair loss
-Treatment for chronic orthopedic problems
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👍🏼Skin Benefits? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣The growth factors in your PRP act as a matrix that instruct your skin to create new collagen
• This smooths skin texture, evens skin tone, decreases fine lines/wrinkles, and causes the skin to tighten and plump. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2️⃣Heals damaged tissues and decreases bleeding
• This promotes faster healing times after procedures like microneedling and resurfacing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👎🏼Side Effects?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
None! PRP is obtained from your own blood, so it’s not foreign to the body! Keep in mind that there may be side effects from the treatment done in conjunction with PRP though!
Full face transformation!
✔️Botox to masseters to slim the jawline
✔️Full face thread lift to stimulate collagen and slim the face
✔️ Retinol to improve breakouts and texture, and to brighten
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Notice how in her before picture, her face is very square and flat. After the threads and masseter reduction, she now has more contour to the face and more of a heart shape ❤️ See my recent post for more information on all things threads! 😊
No matter how many injections💉, if the skin is still textured, discolored, dull, and breaking out, the outcome will likely not be as impressive. Heathy, clear skin can do wonders to turn back the clock and make that filler pop 🤩
I am absolutely LOVING Restylane Kysse in the lips! It is perfect for getting volume by adding height to the upper lip. It is also very flexible, so it integrates and move smoothly with your natural lip tissue to give the most natural, yet significant plump! I also love Kysse for evening out an “M-shaped” upper lip! Swipe to see her smiling photo to see what I mean!

Happy Birthday (yesterday) to this handsome guy, and since I missed the 6 month, happy 7 month anniversary too!🥰 I’ll take the good, the bad, the ugly, and everything in between. I'll take the now, and the past, and the future ❤️
🔎WHAT ARE PDO THREADS?
✔️Dissolvable suture used to lift the tissue on the face
✔️Bridges the gap between injectables and surgery
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤷🏼♀️HOW DO THREADS WORK?
• Small barbs on the tip of the tread latch on to our tissue to lift it
• Another area of barbs near the end of the thread anchor the tissue to its higher point to prevent falling
• As the threads dissolve, it is replaced by your own collagen and produces neovascularization (formation of new blood vessels)
• Both of the above produce a decrease in facial wrinkles and folds, and improve skin texture and elasticity without adding extra volume from fillers
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
WHERE CAN THREADS BE USED?
✔️Midface to lift smile lines
✔️Jawline to lift jowls
✔️Jawline contouring
✔️Neck
✔️Brow Lift and cat/fox eye lifts
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👩🏼⚕️HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
• Just 1! Results last 1-2 years!
• Lifting results can be seen immediately, but other improvements mentioned above can be seen around 2 months and peak at 6 months
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Check out my recent thread lift video to see the procedure being done and before and afters! 😊👍🏼
The power of Botox/Dysport 😊 The main thing I want to point out is that she is still able to animate. She has natural movement and can still get mad, look surprised, and squint, but she no longer has the lines when she does so. This is a sign of properly placed product, NOT the number of units. Where I place the units gets a result like this, how many units I use determines how long this result will last! This beauty used 48 units total for all 3 areas 💉

Have you heard👂🏼There’s still 2 weeks left to take advantage of my 🎂Birthday Boost Promo🎂
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This year I wanted to give back to my patients, so now through 08/31, with the purchase of any 2 syringes of filler, 40 units of Botox and a Sunscreen + Primer is on me! 🤗
✨Full-face threads✨ I’m absolutely loving threads to give a slight lift to the face, especially in the jowl area. It’s a great way to reduce lines without adding more volume to the face. The best part is that although you can’t see it now, this lovely patient is building collagen in place of the threads and will need less procedures in the future! 👍🏼

The 👊🏼power of ! 2 months on the skin brightening protocol later and her sun damage has significantly improved!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What she’s using:
✔️Gentle Cleanser
✔️Exfoliating Polish
✔️Complexion Renewal Pads
✔️Brightalive Skin Brightener
✔️Retinol Skin Brightener
✔️Wrinkle + Texture Repair
thanks to 🖤🤍🖤 I nominate
The most common thing I hear when seeing new patients is, “I only want ½ a syringe! I don’t want to look fake or overdone.” Although I am happy to hear that patients realize how bad some of these overdone people look, it’s important to remember that doing more than ½ a syringe won’t actually make you look overdone. When you see scary looking people they have had multiple sessions of filler over and over again trying to meet unrealistic perfection and usually either an inexperienced injector who doesn’t know where to properly place product, or an unethical injector who is willing to take their money.
If you look at this picture, you can see how little product even 4 syringes is. Now imagine trying to take that little teaspoon and put that in your cheeks, lips, and chin and hoping to see a difference. Ain’t gonna happen.
Do your research and know your injector’s education, background, and before and after work to be sure you know you can trust their recommendations and their technique. You should walk out looking 🔥! Your friends should comment how great you look, but not be able to tell what you had done 😊
Lips are by far my favorite procedure to perform! Look at how this syringe of gave her a natural plump, hydrated the lips, and relaxed the mouth area as a whole! on point! 💋
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Please don’t be scared of a full syringe in your lips. This is one full syringe of our highest plumping lip filler. Multiple syringes and poor injection technique are what lead to duck and p**n star lips, not a full syringe in the hands of a qualified and skilled injector 😊👍🏼

threads can be used to lift sagging tissue on the cheek and jawline as well as give you a non-surgical brow lift and/or a cat/fox 🐱🦊eye. Even better, we are offering them for ❗️40% off❗️through 08/31/20. You heard me right! See the link in my linktree for pricing! Want to know more? Ask me all your questions in the comments below👇🏼!
Did someone say chin Botox/Dysport??? Many people naturally get this pebbling or orange peel appearance to their chin when talking and animating. A little dab of neurotoxin can smooth that right out! Have you tried treating your chin yet?
