About

The practice is led by Dr. Michael Godin, a facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon. The main office is at 410 Libbie Avenue in Richmond (804-285-8578), open Monday to Friday, 8AM to 5PM, and it hosts events and seasonal promotions. Satellite offices are at 8631 W. Third Street, Suite 945E, Los Angeles (310-657-0123), and at 7634 Girard Avenue, Suite H, La Jolla (858-247-6045). Some skin care services are offered only in Richmond, and certain aestheticians work only there. The La Jolla office says it has performed hundreds of thousands of injection treatments.

On the surgical side, the practice lists a deep plane facelift, the Micro-Mini Lift, chin implants, otoplasty, forehead or eyebrow lifts, blepharoplasty, tuck-up procedures and liposuction. Surgical consultations also cover necklifts, brow lifts, rhinoplasty and eyelid surgery. The Micro-Mini Lift is described for patients in their forties and early fifties who are starting to notice aging in the lower face and neck.

Non-surgical options include Botox and Dysport for lines such as frown lines, forehead lines, crow's feet, neck cords, mouth corners, lipstick lines and gummy smile. The practice also offers dermal fillers for facial wrinkles and folds, lip injections, Radiesse, a calcium-based filler, and the Liquid Facelift, which combines fillers with Botox or Dysport. Filler visits take about 30 minutes under topical and local anesthesia. Botox is priced by package rather than per unit, covering forehead, crow's feet and glabellar 11 lines, and current pricing is listed by provider and available on request. A complimentary touch-up is offered afterward if needed. Advanced therapies start with a consultation with a Medical Master Aesthetician.

The skin care menu includes a complimentary skincare consultation, which comes with a recommended treatment plan and daily regimen. Other options are dermaplaning, Hydrafacial, Diamond Glow, HydroPeptide HydroGlass, custom medical-grade facials, LaseMD Ultra, IPL skin rejuvenation, Lutronic Genius RF microneedling, SkinPen microneedling, and a series of PCA, Skinbetter, VI Peel, ZO Stimulator and SkinCeuticals peels. The practice also sells its own private label line, MG Skincare. Product returns and exchanges are accepted within two weeks of purchase, and product orders can be placed by phone or by email.

To book, clients can call or use the online contact form, and digital consultations are offered. Cancellations need 24 hours notice, and no-shows are subject to a full service fee.

Pairs surgical and non-surgical facial treatments with stated priorities of patient satisfaction, surgical excellence and compassionate care.
