Toning muscle is hard. Tightening skin shouldn’t be.
Many of our patients at our Jackson Square clinic are diligent with their workouts but still struggle with skin laxity on the upper arms. This is often because “loose skin” is a structural issue—a loss of collagen and elastin that gym weights simply can’t fix.
That’s where medical aesthetic technology bridges the gap.
In this video, we are using Sofwave™, a breakthrough non-invasive treatment. By delivering Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam technology specifically to the mid-dermis, we stimulate the production of new, healthy collagen.
The best part?
It’s not a surgery. There are no scars to hide. You can go straight back to your day in San Francisco immediately after your appointment.

The difference between aging and aging well? Tissue depth.
While surface treatments fade in weeks, Morpheus8 rebuilds collagen where your facial structure is actually supported—deep in the subdermal layers where skin laxity begins. This isn’t about temporary tightening or filler that migrates. It’s radiofrequency microneedling that triggers your body’s natural remodeling process, restoring definition to your jawline from within. The result? A sculpted contour that looks like bone structure, not injection. As a 2025 Top Morpheus8 Provider, our team doesn’t just operate the device—we understand facial anatomy, optimal depth settings, and how to customize treatment for natural, lasting results. This is precision facial remodeling guided by expertise, not trends.

Your smoothest Wednesday is coming—and we’re not talking about your coffee order. This Wednesday 11/19 is Botox Day. Buy one gift card, get one free. Straightforward value, no fine print. Botox remains the gold standard because it works: FDA-approved, precise muscle relaxation that smooths lines while keeping your natural expression intact. This isn’t about freezing your face—it’s about looking like yourself, just refreshed. Whether you’re booking for yourself or gifting someone their first treatment, November 19th is your move. Your smoothest skin is one appointment away.
November in San Francisco isn’t just sweater weather—it’s strategic skin season. Lower UV index, cooler temps, and the marine layer create optimal conditions for treatments that need real recovery time. We’re booking four treatments this month because timing matters. VI Peel tackles hyperpigmentation and texture while November’s minimal sun lets your skin shed safely. Fraxel goes deeper on sun damage with 3-7 day downtime the fog practically designed for. Sofwave’s collagen remodeling takes 12 weeks to peak—book now, look lifted by February. And GHK-Cu peptide therapy accelerates cellular renewal while your body’s in natural fall recovery mode. This isn’t about trends. It’s about timing treatments when science and seasons align. Your skin needs optimal conditions to transform—November in SF delivers exactly that. Which treatment are you booking first?

Peptides are short-chain amino acids that act as cellular messengers in your body. Think of them as precision signals that tell your cells exactly what to do—whether that’s regulating appetite, repairing tissue, boosting energy, or renewing skin.
What makes peptide therapy different? Specificity. We’re not guessing. Each peptide targets exact biological pathways to support your unique goals.
At Aura, we’ve organized our peptide offerings into four categories:
💊 Medical Weight Loss — GLP-1 peptides that regulate appetite and metabolic function
🏃 Health & Fitness — Growth hormone support for recovery and performance
🧠 Brain & Energy — Cellular repair at the mitochondrial level for mental clarity and stamina
✨ Anti-Aging — Collagen synthesis and tissue regeneration for skin that actually repairs itself
The non-negotiable? Medical supervision. Peptide therapy requires proper assessment, personalized protocols, and ongoing monitoring. Our team evaluates your health history and goals before recommending any treatment—because precision medicine isn’t a marketing term here, it’s how we operate.
