Ridge Wellness & Aesthetics (White Marsh)

Ridge Wellness & Aesthetics has two locations on Ridge Road, one in Rosedale and one in Nottingham, Maryland. The business describes its focus as overall health and well-being from the inside out, and it combines wellness services such as IV nutrient therapy with aesthetic treatments.

The injectable menu includes Botox, Dysport and Daxxify, which relax muscle to soften signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles. Dermal fillers from Restylane, RHA or Juvederm add volume and soften fine lines, laugh lines and wrinkles. An injection consultation is available for $50 and takes one hour.

Facials are performed with Skinceuticals products. The menu includes sensitive skin, healing, rejuvenating, detoxing and dermaplaning facials, priced from $100 to $120, with the sensitive skin, healing, rejuvenating and detoxing facials listed as one-hour appointments. Add-ons such as heavy extractions, extra massage, lymphatic drainage, high frequency and hot/cold stones cost between $7 and $15 each.

The salon offers medical-grade chemical peels, including AHA, BHA and TCA peels as well as custom layered blends, and requires a skin analysis consultation before any peel. Its SkinPen microneedling is a collagen induction treatment aimed at fine lines, wrinkles ranging from moderate to severe, uneven tone, enlarged pores and scarring left by acne. According to the business, a series of three sessions produces the best results, and a client's own platelet-rich plasma can be added to the treatment. The salon calls SkinPen the gold standard in microneedling.

IV nutrient therapy delivers vitamins, minerals and amino acids directly into the bloodstream. The four blends are Energizer, which is marketed for energy, fat burning and metabolism; Immune Boost, with high-dose vitamin C, B vitamins, zinc and methyl B-12; Inner Beauty, with vitamin C, B vitamins, biotin and methyl B-12; and Reboot, which replaces fluids, electrolytes, minerals and vitamins and is listed as useful for a hangover. The business says IV delivery allows full absorption of these nutrients.

Works from the inside out on overall health and well-being, aiming for enhancements that look natural and bring out each client's own features.
