June is on the board at our Med Spa, and my team built three specials around one idea. Renew. Restore. Revive. One per word. All three running at our Eastside office on George Dieter and our Westside office on Silver Springs, all month.

Here is the contrarian thing I want to say about June, because it shapes how I read these three. Most people treat the start of summer as the season for a quick glow before an event. I treat it as the opposite. June is the right month to start the slow work, the treatments that build something real across the rest of the summer, so your skin is better in September than it was in May. Two of the three specials on this board do exactly that, and the third one protects the result. Let me walk you through who each one is for.

Renew. The Sculptra package, three vials, $1,725.

I say all the time that fillers are a tax. So pay attention to the fact that the special I am most enthusiastic about on this board involves a syringe and is not a filler.

Sculptra is a collagen biostimulator. The active ingredient is poly-L-lactic acid. It does not work the way a hyaluronic acid filler works. A regular filler sits under your skin and takes up space on day one, which is why you walk out looking full and why you have to keep buying it as your body breaks it down. Sculptra does almost nothing you can see on day one. What it does is signal your own body to build new collagen over the following weeks and months. The volume that shows up is your own tissue, on your own scaffold.

That is the entire reason I like it. One product rents you volume. The other helps you grow your own. For the right patient, that is not a small difference. It is the whole game.

The package is three vials at $1,725, and the reason it is sold as a package is that Sculptra is a series, not a one-and-done. Most patients restoring overall facial volume do best spreading the vials across more than one visit, a few weeks apart, so the collagen builds in layers and the change looks gradual instead of sudden. Lock in the package and you commit to the full protocol at a real discount, instead of paying vial by vial and quitting halfway, which is the most common way I see people waste money on this product.

Two honest cautions, the same ones I give across the desk.

This is slow on purpose. There is very little to see the day of your appointment. The real change shows up around eight to twelve weeks and keeps refining after that. If you need to look different for something two weeks away, Sculptra is the wrong tool and I will tell you so to your face. Start in June, peak in the fall. That is the trade, and it is a good one.

Technique is everything with this product. It has to be mixed correctly, given time to sit, and placed in the right plane by someone who actually understands biostimulators, or you can end up with nodules instead of a result. That is exactly why this runs under my supervision and not at a strip-mall injectables counter.

Restore. Microneedling with PRP/PRF, $1,500.

Years ago I wrote about vampire facials, and that post is still one of the most-read things I have ever put online. This special is the grown-up, clinical version of that same idea.

Here is how it works, in plain English. We draw a little of your own blood and spin it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets and the growth factors they carry. That concentrate is your PRP, platelet-rich plasma. Or we prepare PRF, platelet-rich fibrin, the newer version that releases those growth factors more slowly and over a longer stretch of time. Then we use a microneedling device to create thousands of tiny channels in the skin and drive your own concentrated growth factors down into them.

The needling alone kicks off a healing and collagen response. The growth factors pour fuel on it. Over a series you get better texture, pores that look smaller, softened fine lines, and a glow that is actual new collagen, not just a temporary flush.

Three reasons I like this one for June. It is your own biology, so nothing foreign goes in. It pairs beautifully with Sculptra, because one is working on the surface while the other rebuilds deep collagen, and plenty of patients do both. And the $1,500 price is built around a series, because one session is a nice afternoon and a series is what actually changes the skin.

The non-negotiable, and June makes it louder. Freshly needled skin that goes out into an El Paso summer sun the next day is asking for a pigment problem. Sunscreen and shade between sessions are mandatory on this one. No exceptions.

Revive. A complimentary gift with the purchase of three skincare products.

This is the quiet special on the board, and the one I most want patients to actually take.

The deal is simple. Buy three medical-grade skincare products and the gift comes with it. The reason I am willing to put my name on a skincare promotion at all is that skincare is the foundation under everything else on this list, and it is the part people skip.

You can biostimulate collagen with Sculptra and resurface with microneedling, then quietly undo a chunk of it by washing your face with whatever was on sale and skipping sunscreen. Medical-grade skincare is not the drugstore product with a nicer label and a worse price. It is higher real concentrations of the ingredients that do the work, a true retinoid, a real vitamin C, a real medical sunscreen, made to get through the skin barrier instead of sitting on top of it.

Three products, chosen for your skin, used every day, is the cheapest anti-aging on this whole board. The gift is just the nudge to finally build the routine.

A clean side-by-side

Where to come, East or West
