The Chin and Jawline Are Coming of Age

Posted on July 17, 2019 by Dr. McWhirter

A very important new concept around the aging face is becoming more mainstream.  Many of the more experienced injectors around the world and I have been working on trying to improve the jawline and chin area for years. We are really starting to make strides on how to treat this area without surgery while maintaining a natural look. Changes in the chin and jawline are some of the first signs of aging that start to get noticed in our 40’s.  Not everyone is structurally blessed with a strong chin and jawline, and if the bony structure is not naturally strong, … Continue Reading

A Personal Story of Inspiration

Posted on June 10, 2019 by Dr. McWhirter

Every day at ReNue, I feel very privileged that I get small glimpses into our patients’ lives.  Today, I want to share a personal journey that really got my attention over the last few months. I often feel very inspired by our patients. Thanks to them, I am reminded of the benefits of feeling more confident and empowered in one’s life.  We hope and believe that ReNue plays a role in helping our patients achieve inner and outer wellbeing.

External Factors to Consider: Is the clinic warm and inviting, clean and professional? Is the staff friendly … Continue Reading

Posted on April 30, 2019 by Dr. McWhirter

In a follow up to my last blog, I wanted to discuss the second most important factor for getting a great result with your skin care regimen.  It is what we call the re-consult.  The re-consult is something that we try to schedule yearly to review our treatments, review the results and make sure we remain on track.  The analogy would be going in for an annual check-up with your doctor and then never having a complete check-up done again.  You want to be preventative and not wait for illness to happen.  It is not that different in the medical … Continue Reading

The Consult

Posted on April 17, 2019 by Dr. McWhirter

First of all, thank you to everyone who has shown interest in having the best skin of their lives and signed up for our ReNue Radiance Program (RRP).  We have had a very successful launch and we continue to feel it provides great value and improves outcomes. The Value of the Initial Consult Some might think that the treatment is the most important part of getting a great outcome, but it is actually the initial consult.  This is what we call the first visit when we haven’t seen you before and are getting to know each other. But it is … Continue Reading
