OUR SERVICES
Gracefully aging doesn’t have to be a sterile, corporate experience. Receiving age-preventative care should feel like you are in a spa, not in a doctor’s office.
At Blue Aesthetics, we help you achieve your aesthetic goals so you can feel confident in your skin.
Neuromodulator Treatment
Botox | Dysport | Daxxify
Botox, Dysport, and Daxxify are prescription medications most well known for relaxing muscle activity that causes wrinkles. They are commonly used to soften or prevent deep expression lines and to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
-
Neuromodulators are used to treat lines in the glabella (in between the eyebrows), forehead, around the eyes, on the nose (bunny or wolf lines), and around the mouth.
They are also used to lift the eyebrows higher, make the eye appear larger, slightly enlarge the lip (lip flip), reduce the amount of teeth that show during a smile (gummy smile), raise the corners of the mouth, prevent “trout pout”, treat skin texture and dimpling on the chin, slim the face, improve the jowl, treat crepey skin on the neck and chest, and slim the trapezius (muscle that connects neck to shoulders).
Along with cosmetic treatments, Neuromodulators also treat teeth grinding (masseter/TMJ) and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) of the armpits and hands.
-
Your appointment will be about 30 minutes long with actual treatment taking less than 10 minutes. There is no recovery time needed. Results begin to develop 1-2 days later and takes 2-3 weeks for final results. Results are visible for about 4 months, gradually diminishing over time as your muscle contraction returns.
During your consultation at Blue, your injector will obtain your medical history, examine your anatomy, learn about your previous neuromodulator treatments, hear your goals with treatment, and recommend a natural, conservative treatment. We will also explain the science/reasoning behind what we recommend and provide exceptional follow up.
HA FILLERS
Juvederm | RHA | Restylane | Versa
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) dermal fillers rejuvenate the face by replacing shrinking structures, such as bone and fat pads, and restoring overall volume. This volume helps concavities causing shadows to become convexities of light reflection thus highlighting or giving an airbrushed appearance. The key is to know where and where not to add the filler. Proper placement of filler creates subtle changes and keeps individuals looking like themselves but younger.
-
HA fillers can also augment, or create definition and structure to features at baseline. This can give someone new cheekbones, a chin, a nose, lips, and even a defined jawline. It can also help to balance features like the nose with the cheeks, lips, and chin so that everything is in harmony.
Common areas to treat with fillers are the temples, cheeks, under eye, mid face, lips, lower face shadows, chin, and jawline.
-
During the aging process, our facial structure changes. Bones become smaller and shift positions, structural fat pads thin and descend, retaining ligaments weaken, and collagen and elastin are lost. As a result, skin sags, the sides of the upper face become hollow, the lower face develops heaviness, and facial shadows replace the once bright light reflection of youth. These changes collectively give a more aged appearance to the face.
-
Blue Aesthetics employs the pan facial, less is more approach. Our providers do not just “spot treat” an area of concern. Instead, our goal with filler rejuvenation is to address the global aging of the entire face and to give recommendations to slowly and conservatively restore, balance, and accentuate your natural, unique features.
Volume restoration with HA filler is typically achieved after several appointments spaced months apart. Once your volume is restored you move to once-a-year maintenance. Maintenance appointments require much less product as they are just touching up and addressing the small changes that occurred during the past year.
Sculptra
Collagen Treatment
Sculptra is made of poly-L-lactic acid microparticles which stimulate the body to produce collagen as they biodegrade. You are then left with your own, natural collagen. By restoring the structural support and strength of our skin, Sculptra adds very subtle volume and decreases the look of wrinkles and folds.
-
Everyone in their 40s and up should be including Sculptra with their anti-aging treatments. However, anyone younger who is experiencing sagging, dull skin would also benefit.
-
Collagen is a vital component to youthful skin. It is a protein in our skin that provides a structural framework and supports the functions of elastin and hyaluronic acid (HA).
As we age, our bodies ability to produce large volumes of quality collagen diminishes. We can no longer keep up with the baseline of youth. Starting in our 20’s we lose about 1% of collagen per year. By age 40 we have lost up to 20% of our youthful collagen. We need to replace this specific type of collagen in order to maintain smooth, bright, glowing skin.
-
Sculptra results develop gradually over time. Most patients undergo a series of 2-3 treatments spaced several months apart with a maintenance treatment every 2 years.
Kybella Fat Reduction
Kybella (deoxycholic acid) is the only FDA approved injectable medication that eliminates fat cells. Deoxycholic acid is a natural bile acid made by our body to break down fat during digestion of food. Kybella is synthetic deoxycholic acid that works by destroying the cell membrane of fat cells. Once this occurs, the cell contents leak out and the fat cell dies. Kybella is then excreted from the body with your natural deoxycholic acid. The result is a permanent reduction in fat.
-
Originating with fat removal in the double chin, kybella is now being used on small areas of stubborn fat throughout the body. Common areas of treatment include double chin, lower cheeks, jowls, bra bulge, under arms, love handles, c-section shelf, under the buttocks fold, over the knee, and inner thighs.
-
Kybella results develop gradually over 6-8 weeks. Most patients undergo a series of 2-4 treatments spaced 8 weeks apart.
Hylenex HA Filler Dissolve
Hylenex (hyaluronidase) is an enzyme that is FDA approved to dissolve HA dermal fillers. It is injected into the filler area and begins to work immediately with final results developing after several days.
-
There can come a time when your HA filler needs to be partially or fully dissolved. This treatment is typically performed after filler has been poorly placed, filler has migrated, filler is causing side effects, or a patient desires a little less volume. Common areas to dissolve include lips, under eyes, and midface.
-
The safest and most natural way to dissolve filler is by injecting small amounts of Hylenex over time. Most patients undergo a series of 2-3 treatments spaced several weeks apart.
** The price for this procedure only applies to patients whose filler was placed by an outside injector. Blue Aesthetics will never charge to dissolve filler placed by our injectors if under the rare occurrence dissolve sessions are needed.
Hydrafacial
The Hydrafacial is an advanced treatment that uses vortex fusion technology to dislodge and remove impurities from the skin while simultaneously delivering potent skin treatment solutions.
Hydrafacial treatments are known for giving skin an immediate youthful glow along with treating specific skin conditions.
One hour once a month for the best skin of your life.
-
Our custom Hydrafacial treatment is amazing for large pores, acne/oily congested skin, dullness (loss of that youthful glow), fine lines/wrinkles, redness, sun damage, and overall skin health. It also helps your medical grade skin care to produce even better results. This treatment is safe and effective on all skin types.
-
Perk Eye and Perk Lip are add-on treatments that you can select to have during your Hydrafacial session. Both have immediate results and include a take home serum for daily application to extend your treatment. (Insider tip: one of them is included free with each treatment in your package of 6 discounted Hydrafacial Platinum sessions if you chose to purchase one)
Perk Eye:

Perk Lip:
Uses patented, roller-flex technology to exfoliate, hydrate, and plump the lips. Resorts volume and provides antioxidants. Great for those who have lost volume with age or would like to give their lips a slight plump.
-
Each treatment session takes about 30-60 minutes depending on your tier selection and includes a deep cleanse, an acid peel, painless extractions, and saturation of the skin with moisturizers, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, arnica, and mineral skin conditioners.
Deluxetreatment will include the above plus a personalized skin booster infusion for individual conditions and LED light therapy.
Platinum treatment will include the above along with facial lymphatic drainage and a scalp massage.
There is no recovery time needed. You may look a little red and plump when you leave but that settles quickly. Results are instant and continue to improve over the next week. Those that chose to have a treatment every 1-2 months will see exponential improvement with the skin as each session builds on the previous one.
Dermaplaning Facials
Dermaplaning is an advanced aesthetic treatment performed with a surgical blade to gently physically exfoliate the dead skin cells on the surface of the skin while also removing the vellus hair, also known as peach fuzz.
-
Dermaplaning is perfect for dull / dehydrated skin, skin with a rough texture, and skin with peach fuzz hair.
These conditions often cause you to notice a lost of energy or glow to the skin. You may even notice that your make up applies patchy and uneven.
Dermaplaning also allows your skin care products to penetrate the skin deeper and with a more even diffusion. This produces a better results from all products.
-
Our Dermaplaning facials are our most relaxing and rejuvenating facial. You begin with a refreshing cleanse , a skin analysis, and a massaging prep. A sterile, single use surgical grade, nickel free blade is gently glided long. This is not uncomfortable at all and leaves your skin feeling clean and light. Finishing products and serums are them massaged into the skin.
Depending on the facial you choose, your treatment will range from 30-60 min and may include extractions, a 15 min LED light therapy with scalp massage, and application of a stem cell + peptide sheet mask with a 10 min face massage.
Lymphatic drainage is available as an add on for decreased puffiness, increased oxygen to the skin, cheek and jawline contour, and overall skin health. -

CO2 LASER
CO2 (carbon dioxide) lasers are the Gold Standard for treating wrinkles, age spots, acne scars, and other blemishes. They are also used to tighten the skin and balance skin’s tone thus making CO2 laser treatment essential to maintaining youthful skin as we age.
CO2 laser treatment works by targeting the water in our skin. Light from the laser is absorbed by the water (which is vaporized) and transformed into heat. This heat ablates and/or coagulates channels in the skin. The damaged tissue is removed and collagen production is stimulated.
-
The COOL PEEL high pulse laser is good for treating superficial wrinkles, reducing pore size, reducing pigment, and improving texture for the face and body.
COOL PEEL is FDA approved for all skin types. It is able to provide resurfacing treatment to darker skin types based on its patented precision in delivering energy to the right depth, speed, and spacing to not cause heat lingering in the skin. This lack of unnecessary heat is why we call it a "cool" peel and why you get fast results with minimal downtime.
(Please note we will provide darker skin types with our melanin suppressing pre treatment 2-4 weeks prior to your treatment.)
-
The DEEP RESURFACING CO2 treatment targets deeper wrinkles, etched in lines, scars (acne, surgical, and trauma), skin laxity, and dark under eye circles.
-
COOL PEEL
Treatment Time: Each treatment session takes about 20 minutes. We include time for numbing 30-45 min and post care in your appointment session.Post Treatment Expectations: Expect your skin to be red and warm for 1-2 days and then dry and scaly as it heals. We ask that you hold on exercise, make-up application, sunscreen, and only use the specific post procedure products discussed during your appointment for the first 3 days.
DEEP RESURFACING
Treatment Time: 20-45 min depending on the intensity level. You will need to numb for 45-60 min in office.Post Treatment Expectations: Swelling, redness, and mild to moderate sunburn sensation are expected for 3- 7 days with mild to moderate treatment and 7-14 days for aggressive treatment. Skin will be very dry and sandpaper like as it heals. Aggressive treatments can also experience pinpoint bleeding, weeping, and oozing.
-
Pre-Procedure Care: We will have a consultation either virtual or in office to prepare you for your treatment. Specific products or medications will be given to start prior to treatment. Blue has developed this protocol to condition the skin, minimize bruising, swelling, and downtime, and prevent post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
We also recommend an express Hydrafacial 1-2 weeks before your treatment and drink lots of water. Hydrated skin has a significantly better results with a CO2 laser.
Post-Procedure Care: You will be given printed or emailed specific post care instructions based on the intensity of your treatment, your skin type, and your skins condition. You will sign a form before your treatment agreeing to comply with this protocol. This is for your benefit and optimal results.
Chemical Peels
A Chemical Peel is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a custom chemical solution to remove the top layers of skin cells and improve the appearance of skin. Peels can penetrate the skin at depths superficially or near the surface, medium, and deep.
At Blue, our peels are approved for all skin types and tones.
We perform minimal to no downtime surface peels from PCA Skin. You may not peel which is great and not needed for your results.
We also perform a medium depth peel from the Perfect Derma Peel. Please allow 7 days of downtime with that treatment.
-
Chemical Peels are perfect for dehydrated skin, dull skin, blemishes, acne, redness, pigmentation, sun damage, and fine lines.
-

Professional Treatments
Your first appointment with your Acne Expert at Blue includes a skin analysis, your first treatment, and an at-home product routine developed specifically for your skin.After that, you will have 6 regular visits about 2-3 weeks apart. During these visits you will receive a skin analysis, exfoliation, extractions, and other in-clinic treatments to fine-tune your plan and boost your progress. More severe acne cases may require additional visits.
Microneedling
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses fine needles to create controlled microchannels in the skin. This process stimulates the skin's natural repair response, supporting new collagen and elastin production over time.
A series of microneedling treatments can improve the appearance of acne scarring, enlarged pores, fine lines, and uneven skin texture while supporting firmer, smoother looking skin.
Microneedling at Blue Aesthetics in Arlington, VA can be customized based on your skin, concerns, and treatment goals, and is an option for a wide range of skin types and tones.
-
Microneedling is a versatile treatment that can address multiple concerns related to skin texture and collagen loss, including:
Acne scarring, including rolling and boxcar scars
Rough or uneven skin texture
Enlarged pores on the nose, cheeks, and chin
Fine lines and wrinkles
Skin laxity and loss of firmness
Certain surgical scars and stretch marks
Overall skin quality
Because microneedling uses controlled mechanical stimulation rather than heat or light, it can be an appropriate option for a broader range of skin tones than some energy based resurfacing treatments. Your provider will evaluate your skin and treatment goals to determine the best approach for you.
Microneedling primarily addresses the texture and structure of the skin. Concerns such as pigmentation, sun damage, redness, and visible vessels may respond better to other treatment modalities. Depending on your skin and goals, your provider may recommend combining microneedling with complementary treatments as part of a customized treatment plan.
-
Most patients benefit from a series of three to six microneedling treatments spaced approximately four weeks apart. The number recommended depends on your skin, the concerns being treated, and their severity. Improvements in texture and overall skin quality may be noticeable earlier in a series, while acne scarring and more significant textural concerns generally require additional treatments.
Collagen remodeling continues for several months after each session, meaning results develop gradually rather than appearing immediately. Once a series is complete, periodic maintenance treatments can help support your results.
If you are planning microneedling before a wedding or event, begin your treatment plan several months in advance to allow adequate time for multiple sessions and recovery between appointments.
-
Your appointment begins with a consultation to review your skin, current skincare routine, and treatment goals. Plan to pause retinoids and other active products approximately five days before treatment and arrive with clean skin. Your provider will confirm the timeline that applies to you.
A topical numbing cream is applied for 20 to 30 minutes before treatment. Once the skin is numb, the microneedling device is passed across the treatment area using settings and depths selected for your skin and specific concerns, with more conservative settings used around the eyes and forehead. Treatment typically takes approximately 30 minutes after numbing. Most patients describe the sensation as pressure and vibration.
Immediately afterward, the skin may appear red and feel warm or tight, similar to a mild to moderate sunburn. Redness typically improves within 24 to 48 hours, and mild dryness or flaking can occur over the following several days.
Most patients can resume makeup after 24 hours and active skincare such as retinoids and acids after 72 hours. Avoid direct sun exposure for one week. Daily SPF is especially important throughout a microneedling treatment series. Your provider will review complete post treatment instructions with you.iption
IPL PHOTOFACIAL
IPL, or intense pulsed light, uses broad-spectrum light energy to target visible pigmentation and redness in the skin. The light is absorbed by excess pigment and visible blood vessels, helping reduce the appearance of sun damage, discoloration, and redness while leaving the surrounding skin intact.
IPL photofacial treatment can address sun spots, freckling, rosacea, and visible vessels on areas including the face, neck, chest, and hands.
IPL photofacial treatments at Blue Aesthetics in Arlington, VA typically take approximately 30 minutes and require minimal downtime.
-
IPL primarily targets concerns related to skin tone and discoloration rather than skin texture. Intense pulsed light treatment can improve the appearance of:
Sun damage and sun spots
Freckling and areas of hyperpigmentation
Rosacea and persistent facial redness
Broken capillaries and visible vessels around the nose and chin
Uneven skin tone on the face, chest, neck, and hands
The chest and hands accumulate significant sun damage over time and are frequently left out of a daily skincare routine. Both can be treated with IPL when appropriate.
Because IPL targets pigment within the skin, treatment is not appropriate for every skin tone or for recently tanned skin. Patients with deeper skin tones or recent sun exposure may have a greater risk of burns or pigment changes. Your provider will assess your skin type, treatment area, and recent sun exposure to determine whether IPL is appropriate for you or whether another treatment may be a better option.
-
Proper preparation is important for both the safety and effectiveness of IPL treatment.
Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanner for approximately four weeks before your appointment. IPL should not be performed on recently tanned skin because increased pigment raises the risk of burns and unwanted pigment changes. If you have travel planned, schedule your IPL before your trip or well after your return. Your provider will confirm the timeline that applies to your skin and treatment plan.
Tell your provider if you have a history of cold sores, as IPL can trigger an outbreak and a preventive prescription can be arranged in advance. Also mention any medications that may increase photosensitivity.
Plan to discontinue retinoids and other active skincare products approximately five to seven days before treatment. Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup and sunscreen.
-
Your appointment begins with an assessment of your skin type, recent sun exposure, and the pigmentation or redness you would like to address. Your provider will select treatment settings based on your skin and specific concerns.
The treatment area is cleansed, protective eyewear is placed, and a layer of cool gel is applied. The IPL device delivers a series of overlapping pulses across the treatment area. Patients often describe each pulse as a brief warm or snapping sensation. No numbing is required. A full-face IPL photofacial typically takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes.
Mild redness or warmth may occur immediately afterward and generally resolves within a few hours.
Over the following three to seven days, treated pigmented spots often become darker and may develop a coffee ground like appearance before gradually flaking away on their own. Allow this process to happen naturally without picking or aggressive exfoliation.
Many patients benefit from a series of three IPL treatments spaced three to four weeks apart, although the number and timing will depend on the concerns being addressed and your individual response. Maintenance treatments may be recommended over time, along with consistent daily SPF to help protect your results.
EVERESSE RF SKIN TIGHTENING
EVERESSE is a non-invasive monopolar radiofrequency treatment designed to tighten and firm the skin without surgery or needles. The device delivers controlled thermal energy below the skin's surface, stimulating the skin's natural collagen and elastin production over time.
EVERESSE RF can improve the appearance of skin laxity across the lower face, cheeks, jawline, submentum, neck, and eye area, helping restore firmness and definition that softens with age.
EVERESSE RF at Blue Aesthetics in Arlington, VA requires no numbing and minimal to no downtime.
-
EVERESSE RF addresses skin laxity and loss of firmness rather than surface concerns such as pigmentation or texture. Radiofrequency skin tightening can improve the appearance of:
A softening or less defined jawline
Early jowling in the lower face
Loose or crepey skin on the neck
Skin laxity under the chin
Loss of firmness in the cheeks and midface
Skin laxity in the eye area
Overall skin firmness and contour
EVERESSE RF is generally best suited for patients with mild to moderate laxity who want to address early structural changes without surgery. Your provider will assess your skin during consultation and discuss what radiofrequency is likely to achieve for you, as well as whether another approach may be a better fit.
Because radiofrequency energy heats tissue rather than targeting pigment, EVERESSE RF can be performed across a wide range of skin tones.
-
EVERESSE is a non-surgical skin tightening treatment that uses monopolar radiofrequency to deliver controlled heat below the skin’s surface, stimulating new collagen and elastin while continuous cooling keeps treatment comfortable. Unlike treatments that require needles or significant recovery time, EVERESSE requires no numbing and has minimal to no downtime.
EVERESSE RF can be customized across multiple areas of the face and neck, including the cheeks, jawline, under the chin, neck, and delicate eye area. As collagen remodeling continues after treatment, improvements in skin firmness, laxity, and definition develop gradually over the following weeks and months.
-
Your appointment begins with a consultation to assess your skin, areas of laxity, and treatment goals. Your provider will determine whether EVERESSE is the right treatment for you and customize your treatment based on the areas you would like to address.
The treatment area is cleansed and a conductive gel is applied. Your provider then delivers radiofrequency energy across the treatment area using an applicator selected for that region. You will feel warmth throughout the treatment while the device’s continuous cooling helps maintain comfort at the skin’s surface. No numbing is required.
Treatment time varies depending on the areas being treated.
There is minimal to no downtime following EVERESSE. Some patients may experience temporary redness or warmth immediately afterward, but most can return to normal activities the same day.
Your provider will review any specific aftercare instructions with you following treatment.
-
Some patients notice an initial improvement in firmness following treatment, while more significant changes develop gradually as collagen remodeling occurs. Results can continue to develop for approximately 12 weeks after treatment.
The number and timing of treatments depend on your skin, the degree of laxity being addressed, and your goals. Your provider will recommend a treatment plan during your consultation, including whether periodic maintenance treatments may be appropriate.
Because results develop gradually, allow several months if you are planning EVERESSE before a wedding or event.
LASER HAIR REMOVAL
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy that is absorbed by pigment in the hair. The energy damages the hair follicle, reducing its ability to produce new hair. Over a series of treatments, hair growth in the treated area becomes progressively finer and sparser, resulting in long-term hair reduction.
Laser hair removal can be performed on many areas of the face and body, including the upper lip, chin, underarms, bikini area, legs, back, chest, and arms.
Laser hair removal at Blue Aesthetics in Arlington, VA is performed by trained providers. Treatments are priced by area size, with packages available for a full series.
-
Treatments are priced by area size. Each appointment covers one area from the tier you select.
Extra small areas (15 minutes)
Chin, upper lip, forehead, toes, abdomen line, or buttocks strip.Small areas (20 minutes)
Chin and upper lip together, underarms, sideburns, cheeks, or neck.Medium areas (30 minutes)
Upper arms, lower arms, full face and neck, or bikini area.Large areas (45 minutes)
Upper legs, lower legs, Brazilian, or buttocks.Extra large areas (60 minutes)
Full arms, full legs, full back, or full chest and stomach.If you are treating more than one area, your provider can help determine appropriate scheduling based on the areas being treated.
-
We recommend a series of six sessions for optimal hair reduction, with packages available for a full series.
Hair grows in different phases, and laser hair removal is most effective when hair is in the active growth phase. Because not all hairs are in this phase at the same time, multiple treatments are needed to target additional hairs as they enter active growth.
Hair reduction typically becomes more noticeable as you progress through your treatment series. Results vary based on factors including the treatment area, hair color and thickness, skin type, and individual hair growth patterns.
Some patients may benefit from occasional maintenance treatments after completing their initial series. Hormonal changes and other factors can contribute to new or recurrent hair growth over time.
Your provider will recommend treatment intervals based on the area being treated and your individual response.
-
Proper preparation helps reduce the risk of skin irritation and allows the laser to effectively target the hair. Before your appointment:
Shave the treatment area approximately 24 hours before your appointment, or as directed by your provider. The area should be clean-shaven, with no hair above the surface of the skin.
Avoid direct UV exposure on the treatment area for four weeks prior.
Avoid photosensitizing medications within four weeks. Tell your provider about all medications and supplements you are taking.
Avoid sunless tanning and spray tans on the treatment area for two weeks prior.
Discontinue waxing, threading, plucking, and epilating for four to six weeks prior. These methods remove the hair from the follicle that the laser needs to target.
Let your provider know about any recent sun exposure, changes to the skin in the treatment area, or history of cold sores when treating areas where outbreaks may occur.
Shaving is the recommended method of hair removal throughout your laser hair removal series because it removes hair above the surface of the skin while leaving the hair within the follicle available for treatment.
Your provider will review any additional preparation instructions based on the treatment area, your skin, and the laser being used.
-
Before treatment, your provider will assess your skin and hair to determine whether laser hair removal is appropriate for you.
The treatment area is prepared and protective eyewear is worn during the procedure. Your provider then moves the laser handpiece across the treatment area, delivering energy to the targeted hair follicles.
Treatment time depends on the size of the area, ranging from approximately 15 minutes for extra small areas to 60 minutes for extra large areas.
Temporary redness and swelling around the treated hair follicles can occur following treatment and generally resolve on their own within a few hours. Your provider will review post-treatment instructions, including when you can resume exercise, heat exposure such as hot showers and saunas, and your normal skincare routine.
Over the following weeks, treated hairs gradually shed. This can sometimes look like continued hair growth before the hairs release and is a normal part of the treatment process.
Sun protection is important throughout your laser hair removal series, particularly on areas regularly exposed to UV light.
