AQUAGOLD® RED CARPET FACIAL
The AQUAGOLD® fine touch™ Red Carpet Facial uses a patented, gold-plated micro-channeling system to painlessly deliver a customized solution into the skin. Depending on your skin concerns the solution may be a combination of neurotoxins such as Botox or Dysport, dermal filler, and/or other vitamins solutions.
This facial helps create a more youthful and hydrated glow to the skin with no downtime. It’s perfect for a quick “pick me up” before any event. The AQUAGOLD® Red Carpet Facial will help minimize fine lines and wrinkles, brown spots, redness, inflammation, and pore size. It can be done on any surface including the face, close to the eyes, neck, chest, and hands.

THE RED CARPET FACIAL
The AQUAGOLD® Red Carpet Facial, commonly referred to as "The Botox Facial," is a very superficial microchanneling treatment that deposits hyaluronic acid and neurotoxin into the top layers of the skin to create a smooth texture with reduced pore size. This revolutionary technique produces a natural-appearing outcome, without any of the tell-tale signs of being injected.
Depending on the specific AquaGold cocktail, we can treat the following skin concerns on the face (including the entire eye area), neck, and chest:
-
Acne scarring
-
Fine lines and wrinkles
-
Skin laxity
-
Uneven pigmentation
-
Dilated pores
-
Oily Skin
-
Rosacea and redness from sensitive skin
CAN I GET AN AQUAGOLD® RED CARPET FACIAL RATHER THAN BOTOX AND FILLER?
AquaGold is not a substitute for standard neurotoxin (Botox or Dysport) or dermal filler treatments. AquaGold has no effect on movement or muscle relaxation since we are only using micro-doses of neurotoxin and dermal filler.
HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT THAN HAVING BOTOX OR DERMAL FILLERS INJECTED IN MY FACE?
While the AQUAGOLD® Red Carpet Facial uses the same high-quality FDA-Approved Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers that we inject to plump lips, lift cheeks, and fill in deep lines, you shouldn’t expect to see the same kind of changes as you would with those applications. When these fillers are injected deeper into the tissues below the skin, they can restore volume. However, with AQUAGOLD®, we’re placing the hyaluronic acid in very small microdroplets throughout the skin of the entire face to smooth the actual skin layer. It’s the same product used in different ways to treat different concerns. If you want to restore or add volume to your face in addition to improving skin quality, then dermal filler injections can be performed at the same time as AQUAGOLD®.
Neurotoxin (Botox or Dysport) can be safely used to treat a variety of concerns including frown lines, horizontal forehead lines, and crows feet. With the AQUAGOLD® Red Carpet Facial, we’re injecting the neurotoxin in very small quantities throughout the face to improve fine lines, shrink pores, and decrease redness. It will not relax muscles to prevent wrinkles the way that neurotoxin injected into the forehead and crow’s feet does. The AQUAGOLD® Red Carpet Facial is more of a rejuvenation technique than are traditional fillers, Botox or Dysport. If you’re looking to relax wrinkles in addition to improving skin quality, Botox or Dysport injections can be performed at the same time as an AQUAGOLD® Red Carpet Facial.
THE SOLUTION TO PAIN AND ANXIETY DURING TREATMENTS:
PRO-NOX
One of the biggest concerns our Dubuque patients have when considering some of the more advanced treatments like Moxi and dermal filler is pain management. This fear is understandable; the human brain is hardwired to experience anxiety at the prospect of pain. At Faces Medspa, we make every effort to keep our patients completely comfortable before, during, and after their procedures. Fortunately, we have a powerful tool at our disposal: an innovative sedation system called Pro-Nox that’s designed to minimize both anxiety and pain.
If you're interested in learning more about how Pro-Nox can be incorporated into your comfortable treatment, call Faces Medspa today.
