Aesthetic Services in Mount Juliet, TN

Refresh your appearance with medical-grade aesthetic care delivered in a trusted, clinical setting. At Back to Basics Family Practice, we focus on two proven treatments, Dysport to soften dynamic wrinkles and fine lines, and microneedling to improve skin texture, tone, and collagen, so you can look and feel your best.

What Are Aesthetic Services?

Aesthetic medicine offers minimally invasive treatments designed to refresh your appearance and improve skin health. Unlike surgical interventions, these treatments are performed in-office with little to no downtime, making them accessible options for busy individuals seeking natural-looking results. At Back to Basics Family Practice, our aesthetic services are administered by trained medical professionals who prioritize safety, efficacy, and individualized care.

We keep our aesthetic menu focused on two treatments we believe in: Dysport, a neuromodulator that relaxes the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles, and microneedling, which stimulates your skin's natural collagen production to improve texture and tone. Each treatment is tailored to your unique facial anatomy, skin type, and aesthetic goals. We take a conservative, natural approach that enhances your features rather than creating an artificial or overdone appearance.

Whether you're looking to soften forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines with Dysport, or to smooth uneven texture and refine your complexion with microneedling, we provide safe, effective solutions in a comfortable medical environment. Our approach considers both your aesthetic goals and your overall skin health, so treatments align with your broader wellness. We start conservatively, focus on natural results, and partner with you to maintain healthy, radiant skin as you age.

Fine lines from repeated facial expressions

Our Approach to Aesthetic Services

Comprehensive Consultation

Every aesthetic journey begins with a detailed facial analysis and discussion of your concerns, goals, and medical history. We assess your skin quality and facial anatomy to determine whether Dysport, microneedling, or a combination of the two best fits your goals, then build a personalized plan for natural, harmonious results.

Expert Treatment

Treatments are performed by trained medical professionals using FDA-cleared products and proven techniques. We prioritize comfort, precision, and safety, with most Dysport and microneedling sessions completed in 15-45 minutes with minimal discomfort.

Ongoing Support & Maintenance

We provide detailed aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to assess results and make adjustments. Many patients benefit from maintenance treatments every 3-6 months to sustain optimal results and prevent further aging.

Treatments We Offer

Dysport

Dysport is an injectable neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes the facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles, smoothing crow's feet, forehead lines, and frown lines between the brows. Results typically begin to appear within 2-3 days and last around 3-4 months. Used consistently, Dysport can also help soften the formation of new expression lines over time, delivering a refreshed, natural look rather than a frozen appearance.

Microneedling

Microneedling uses fine needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin, triggering your body's natural collagen and elastin production. This improves overall skin texture and tone, refines the look of enlarged pores, and softens the appearance of acne scarring and fine lines. Because results build gradually, we typically recommend a short series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart, with most patients returning to normal activities within a day or two.

What to Expect: Your Aesthetic Treatment Timeline

Initial Consultation

During your first visit, we conduct a comprehensive facial assessment, discuss your aesthetic goals and medical history, explain treatment options, and develop a personalized plan. We'll review before-and-after photos, set realistic expectations, and answer all your questions. Many patients choose to begin treatment the same day if appropriate.

Days 1-7: Early Results

Dysport begins working within 2-3 days, with full effects visible by day 14 as targeted muscles relax. After microneedling, you may notice mild redness similar to a light sunburn for 24-48 hours as the skin begins its natural repair process. Most people return to normal activities immediately with minimal downtime.

Weeks 2-4: Peak Results

This is when you'll see optimal results from your treatments. Dysport reaches full effectiveness as expression lines soften, and skin treated with microneedling reveals gradually improved texture and tone as new collagen forms. We schedule a follow-up appointment to assess results and make any necessary refinements or touch-ups.

Months 3-6: Maintenance Planning

As Dysport begins to wear off (typically 3-4 months), you may notice the gradual return of muscle movement, at which point a repeat treatment keeps results consistent. Microneedling results continue to build with each session in your series and are maintained with periodic touch-ups. We'll recommend a maintenance schedule tailored to your results, goals, and budget to sustain your refreshed appearance long-term.

Long-Term: Consistent Enhancement

With regular maintenance treatments and proper skincare, most patients achieve cumulative improvements in skin quality and maintain a naturally refreshed appearance. Preventative treatments started in your 30s and 40s can significantly slow visible aging. We become partners in your long-term aesthetic wellness journey.

Common Questions About Aesthetic Services

Are aesthetic treatments safe? What are the risks?+

When performed by trained medical professionals using FDA-cleared products, Dysport and microneedling are very safe with minimal risks. Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, or minor bruising at treated areas, typically resolving within 24-48 hours. Serious complications are rare but can include infection or an allergic reaction. We conduct thorough medical histories, use sterile techniques, and provide detailed aftercare instructions to minimize risks. Our conservative approach prioritizes natural results and patient safety above all.

How long do results last, and what is the maintenance schedule?+

Dysport typically lasts 3-4 months, so most patients schedule maintenance treatments 3-4 times per year to keep results consistent. Microneedling results are cumulative; a series of 3-6 sessions spaced a few weeks apart provides lasting improvement in texture and tone, with periodic touch-up sessions to maintain your results. Individual metabolism, skin type, and lifestyle factors affect longevity. We'll create a personalized maintenance schedule based on your results and goals.

Will I look overdone or unnatural? I want to still look like myself.+

Our philosophy is "enhancement, not transformation." We take a conservative, natural approach that refreshes your appearance while preserving your unique facial characteristics and expressions. The goal is for people to notice you look rested and refreshed—not to obviously spot that you've had work done. We start conservatively and can always add more product if needed, but it's difficult to remove excess. Your input is crucial; we work collaboratively to achieve results that make you feel like the best version of yourself.

Do the treatments hurt? What about downtime?+

Most patients describe Dysport injections as brief pinching sensations, and we use ultra-fine needles for comfort. For microneedling, we apply a topical numbing cream beforehand, so the treatment is well tolerated, with a mild prickling or warm sensation during the session. Downtime is minimal, and most people return to work and normal activities immediately. You may have minor swelling or bruising for a day or two after Dysport (easily covered with makeup) and mild redness for 24-48 hours after microneedling. We schedule treatments around your life commitments to minimize any social downtime.

When should I start aesthetic treatments? Is there an ideal age?+

There's no one-size-fits-all answer—the right time depends on your individual concerns and goals. Many patients begin preventative Dysport in their late 20s to early 30s to slow the formation of dynamic wrinkles. Others wait until expression lines become more pronounced, typically in their 40s and 50s. Microneedling benefits patients of all ages dealing with uneven texture, enlarged pores, or acne scarring. The best approach is to start when you notice changes that bother you, not when you reach a certain age. A consultation can help determine which treatment aligns with your current needs.
