MEDICAL AESTHETIC INJECTIONS
Lauren Byrne, BN RN, Injector
Hi, I'm Lauren Byrne. Mama, wife, volunteer comedian, a registered nurse and reiki practitioner.
I have over a decade of experience in the nursing field, primarily in emergency. I have a certification in emergency nursing from the Canadian Nurses Association and was the 2020 Ovation Award winner for leadership in Nursing from the RNUNL. While I'm extremely proud of the work I have done in those fields of nursing, in 2021 I decided to take the plunge and fulfill a passion for making people feel amazing and became a certified nurse injector.
In 2022 I took that passion in another direction and became a Reiki Practitioner. I'm committed to helping you look and feel your best, and I'm excited to be continuously expanding on that knowledge. Sometimes that means smoothing some wrinkles. Sometimes it means balancing your chakras. I got you either way! My favourite compliment is when people tell me they feel "refreshed". That in itself is the goal; not to change, but to enhance your own unique beauty and help you glow.

Releasing them with injections always makes a huge difference. Dysport can also be injected into the masseters to help with TMJ and chronic headaches.

SkinPen MICRONEEDLING: $300
45 mins approx.
Microneedling is a procedure used to promote collagen production through the skin's own healing process. It helps with redness, acne, fine lines and wrinkles, scarring, and general congestion and brightness. There are three phases to the wound-repair process:
Phase I: Inflammation. Piercing the skin triggers your immune system to cleanse the wound, remove debris, increase blood flow and begin to create new tissue. Phase II: Proliferation. The wound is rebuilt with new granulation cells, which are part of the extracellular matrix. Additionally, a new network of blood vessels develops. Phase III: Remodeling. The wound is replaced with new dermal tissues and blood vessels.
Benefits: Little Downtime: It is a perfect treatment for patients with a busy schedule, Natural Recovery: SkinPen’s mechanical process is versatile and usable year-round, Safe for all Skin Types: Clinically proven effective on all skin types, Fitzpatrick 1 – 6, Safe and Sound: The First FDA-cleared microneedling device on the market, Comfortable: A light numbing cream may be used to minimize discomfort.
LIP FLIP: $70
15 mins approx.
It involves the injection of Botox into your Cupid’s bow, which is the middle of your upper lip, and between the Cupid's bow and the corners of your mouth. The injection temporarily relaxes the muscles around your lip. This causes the part of your upper lip that’s inside your mouth to “flip” upward and outward, giving your lip a fuller appearance. It also helps with smokers lines!

The IV Radiance contains amino acids such as Arginine, Histidine, Methionine, Lysine, and Glutamic Acid that have antioxidant properties.
