Nova Skincare Co

Nova Skincare Co was founded in January 2022 by Makenzie Reeves, who is originally from Denver. The business centers on injectable treatments and microneedling, and the site lists softening facial lines and wrinkles and lessening the look of facial scarring among the concerns it serves.

Visits start with a free consultation, which can be held virtually and booked online. Appointments can also be arranged as in-home visits by request, and the business's listed hours are 10:00am to 5pm on Sunday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.

The injectable menu includes Botox and Xeomin, both botulinum toxin type A products. Each is described as a non-surgical treatment that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles to ease the look of dynamic wrinkles, and the site says they are used on lines around the eyes, across the forehead and between the brows. Results are described as typically lasting three to four months. Xeomin is described as containing no additive proteins.

SkinPen microneedling uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries, which the site says prompt collagen and elastin production. It is listed for fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and overall skin tone and texture, and the device has adjustable needle depth settings. A session typically takes about 30 minutes to an hour depending on the areas treated, and redness or mild swelling usually settles within a day or two. The salon describes SkinPen as the first FDA cleared microneedling device and the only FDA cleared microneedling protocol.

Before treatment, clients are asked to avoid active skin infections in the treated areas, to skip alcohol for at least 24 hours, and ideally to avoid anti-inflammatory and blood-thinning medications and supplements for two weeks. Injectable appointments are recommended at least two weeks before a special event. Appointments can be rescheduled if a client has an active skin infection or is feeling unwell.

Treatment plans are individualized to each client's goals, with a consultation offered before any treatment.
