The practice was co-founded by Stephen R. Ellis, MD and Sonya Ellis. Its training arm, the L.A.B. aesthetic institute, offers one-on-one, group and shadowing options for physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners and nurse injectors. According to the site, the business won a 2026 Tops in Tarrant award for anti-aging medicine from Society Life Magazine, and it describes itself as one of America's best aesthetic injectors.
Injectables include several neurotoxin brands (Botox, Daxxify, Dysport, Jeuveau, Letybo and Xeomin), which the site describes as FDA-approved. Neurotoxin visits typically take 15 to 20 minutes, and treatment plans include a maintenance visit about every 90 days. Normal activities can resume right away, though touching the treated area and exercising are avoided for 24 hours. Neurotoxins are used for frown lines, crow's feet and forehead wrinkles. Other injectable options include PRP and PRF, where PRF is said to contain more fibrin and white blood cells than PRP, plus dermal fillers, PDO threads and Kybella, which is used to reduce fat under the chin, along the jawline and in the neck. Dermal fillers may cause swelling or bruising for a few days. PDO thread aftercare includes avoiding exaggerated expressions for about two weeks and pausing dental work for two to four weeks.
Laser and energy-based devices address acne, melasma and hyperpigmentation, rosacea and pigment, skin brightening, skin rejuvenation, skin tightening, spider veins and laser hair removal. Options include RF microneedling, which usually takes under an hour, and laser resurfacing, which usually lasts about an hour and may leave mild redness, swelling or flaking. Aerolase typically produces a brief, mild warming feeling and usually does not need numbing. According to the site, many people see improvement after three Aerolase sessions, and typical plans run four to six sessions with maintenance as needed.
Aesthetician services are adjusted to each client's skin type and concerns, from dryness to acne or early aging. Customized facials begin with a consultation and can use DiamondGlow, SkinPen microneedling, Skinwave or dermaplaning, with teen, men's and light peel versions also available. Most skin types can benefit from chemical peels, chosen after an evaluation; light peels may cause mild flaking for one to two days, while deeper peels can need up to a week of downtime. Body contouring includes cellulite reduction and Morpheus8.
Wellness programs combine bioidentical hormone therapy with functional weight management.
