Acne Treatments
Acne is the term for plugged pores, or blackheads and whiteheads, pimples and deeper lumps called cysts or nodules. This common skin condition occurs when bacteria break down the oils in the skin. Irritating substances are produced that activate the body’s immune system to produce inflammation and redness. Acne scarring has traditionally been difficult to treat. New technologies and cosmetic breakthroughs have had successful results in improving the appearance of acne scars. Procedures such as Fractional Laser Resufacing, Microdermabrasion and Vibraderm can smooth unwanted scars with easy, non-surgical treatments that have no downtime.
Botox/Dysport® Cosmetic
Botox/Dysport® Cosmetic is a prescription injection medication that temporarily improves the appearance of mild to moderate wrinkles and frown lines. Botox/Dysport® Cosmetic was the first product of its type to be FDA approved for cosmetic use, and has an established record of experience that is precise and predictable.
Cynosure Smartlipo® Laser Liposuction
Since 2007 Glow aesthetic medicine and Dr. Patrick Carter are proud to be one of the first providers of SmartLipo™ in Southern Colorado and Colorado Springs! He has successfully performed over 1000 procedures and is consider a leader in in-office, out-patience tumescent liposuction. By utilizing the delicate contouring and collagen tightening effects of the SmartLipo Laser with the deeper sculpting VASERLipo ultrasonic device Dr. Carter is able to achieve amazing results.
Fillers
Restylane is an hyaluronic acid-based injectable gel that smoothes your facial wrinkles and creases by adding volume. It is recommended for treating nasolabial folds and other wrinkles around the mouth. It is also used to augment the size of the lips, enhance the appearance of cheekbones and give more mass to the chin, and fill hollows below the eyes. It is an excellent complement to Dysport/Botox Cosmetic injections.
Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing
The CO2 laser is considered the most successful weapon for combating wrinkles, ageing, acne scaring and many other skin imperfections. This is the ideal treatment for facial rejuvenation. The Fractional CO2 Laser helps to reduce lines and wrinkles, to tighten the skin and to promote collagen regeneration, leading to a healthier, younger looking you.
Glowlean Injections
Lipotropic nutrients are a class of agents that play important roles in the body’s use of fat. These compounds enhance liver and gallbladder’s role by decreasing fat deposits and speeding up metabolism of fat and its removal. Glowlean injections effectively reduce appetite and increase your body’s natural fat-burning processes. Using Glowlean shots, along with proper diet and exercise, can help you reach your goal weight faster.
Hair Restoration
Looking for a way to not only stop hair loss, but actually increase the thickness, density, and fullness of your hair? Hair Microneedling with anteageskin Stem Cell solution is a hormone-free, natural way to do just that! The results truly speak for themselves.
Hormone Replacement Therapy
HRT can be used to treat men and women when their hormone levels drop or become unbalanced. It’s most frequently used to ease symptoms of perimenopause and menopause and low libido. Excess estrogen can cause anxiety, weight gain, belly fat, tender breasts, emotional lability, symptoms of PMS, and mood swings. At Glow Aesthetic Medical, we combine functional medicine with Hormone Replacement Therapy creating a more comprehensive solution for your hormone imbalances. We use only the highest quality laboratory testing and bioidentical plant based hormones from the best compounding pharmacies in the country. The laboratory diagnostics we use are extensive and include blood, urine, and saliva testing depending on medical history. In addition to traditional hormone testing, we look at hormone precursors, vitamins and minerals that affect hormones, as well as Vitamin D3 which is actually a hormone itself!
Intense Pulsed Light
Intense Pulsed Light Treatment is a fantastic method of reducing the sun’s damaging effects on the skin, which often results in unsightly pigmented spots on the skin and for some visible age spots. This treatment includes the use of hand piece that delivers high intensity pulses of broadband light that is different from the narrow band light of lasers. IPL, which stands for intensed pulsed light, is non-ablative meaning that is does not damage the surface of the skin. The intense light is delivered to the deeper parts of the skin (dermis) and leaves the superficial aspect of the skin (epidermis) untouched. Our IPL treatment targets pigmented lesions such as melasma and age spots. The thermal effect of IPL also causes production of new collagen, leading to improvement of skin quality and less wrinkles.
Laser Hair Removal
At glow Aesthetic Medicine, laser hair removal treatments are done in packages to insure the treatment of the hair in its active growth cycle. Often 3 to 6 treatments are recommended. These sessions are done approximately 4 to 8 weeks apart depending on the area of the body being treated and on your skin and hair type. Specific recommendations appropriate for your skin type and your particular needs are made for you at the time of your consultation.
Medical Facials
Most of us are troubled by something about our skin. Did you know that we dramatically decrease our collagen production around the age of 35. At glow aesthetic medicine, we can evaluate your skin and help determine how we can best meet your specific needs. We can treat premature aging, sun damage, acne, irregular pigmentation, and scarring.All treatments are appropriate for both men and women. To accomplish this, we have licensed aestheticians on staff specializing in skin care. We offer a variety of in-office treatments, as well as a full line of products available for retail sale. Our goal is to identify the best products on the market, especially those that are prescription level, to help you make an informed decision about your skin care.
Microneedling
Microneedling – (SkinPen) (also known as collagen induction therapy) involves using fine needles to create hundreds of tiny, invisible puncture wounds in the top layer of skin. Sound appealing? Not so much. But this minimally invasive treatment done in-office by a glows trained aesthetician is virtually painless and incredibly effective. “The micro-injuries you create stimulates the body’s natural wound healing processes, resulting in cell turnover and increased collagen and elastin production, therefore reversing as well as preventing signs of aging.
PDO Thread Lift
PDO threads are the latest facial rejuvenation treatment and one of the hottest trends in cosmetic surgery. It’s the perfect choice if you are looking for instant results, with little to no downtime.In about an hour, your face will look instantly better with no scars and long lasting results. PDO threads have been around in Europe and Asia for about 10 years and due their overwhelming popularity, were introduced to the US market, where the demand for non surgical procedures is soaring. Novathreads are made from PDO (Polydioxanone) sutures, which fully absorb in 6 to 12 months, but produce results that last much longer. PDO threads stimulate your body to build collagen in the area where the thread is placed. Over a few months the thread is absorbed by the body, but the collagen produced remains in place providing volume and lift that last and last!
Sculptra Aesthetic
Glow aesthetic is proud to introduce you to sculptra Aesthetic. “Welcome to the new age of anti-age”. Sculptra is the first facial injectable that gives your noticeable, long-lasting results over time. It works gradually by replacing lost collagen. This gradual transformation process gives you a more youthful, natural-looking appearance that emerges subtly, and can last 2 years more.
TruSculpt 3D
truSculpt3D is the latest nonsurgical, no downtime procedures that is clinically proven to reduce problem fat areas on the body which are resistant to diet and exercise. truSculpt 3D is a breakthrough technology which uses RF (radio frequency) energy to precisely heat and terminally damage fat cells in the subcutaneous tissue layer. These are then eliminated from the body through the body’s natural processes. This is a permanent fat reduction and a smoothing and firming of the targeted area.
VASERlipo™ Tissue Selective Liposuction
Dr. Carter is one of the only physicians in Colorado to offer VASERlipo™ liposuction procedure in an out-patient setting under local anesthesia. Early on Dr. Carter found that VASERlipo™ is the perfect complement to SmartLipo™ treatments for body areas requiring additional liposuction for optimal results. Together, these liposuction treatments can contour your body, giving you a smooth new shape with fast recovery. Typically Dr. Carter will use VASERlipo™ for de-bulking of large deposits of fat as well as performing high-definition/hi-def liposuction. What is VASER® Lipo? How does it differ from traditional liposuction? VASERlipo™, also known as LipoSelection®, is an advanced body contouring procedure that selectively removes unwanted body fat. An alternative to the harsh techniques of traditional liposuction, VASER Lipo uses state-of-the-art ultrasound technology designed to gently reshape your body.
Vascutouch
Electrocautery has been used extensively in medicine for decades. In the last several years, the technology has been refined for use in cosmetic procedures. The Vascutouch is specifically designed for the treatment of unsightly veins—especially spider veins on the face or legs. It is also very effective against sunspots, moles, and some birthmarks.
ViPeel
The Vi Peel contains a synergistic blend of powerful ingredients suitable for all skin types, for dramatic results with virtually no pain, no skin preparation and little downtime. Vi Peel is the first Next Generation Aesthetic. It is painless, yet produces dramatic visible results in just days with little downtime.

Miz Fearless
I can not recommend this spa for Miradry treatments. I got a Miradry treatment here last year. Immediately after the treatment I was completely dry, no sweat whatsoever for a couple weeks. Then it started to return and 1 year later I have about 50% decrease overall in underarm sweat. I know this is normal and I was told that some people need 2 treatments. I returned and paid $1000 for a second treatment. This time it was done by a different person (Irma) and she seemed very unsure and inexperienced. It was extremely painful this time. She used a lower energy setting and treated a smaller area. (which doesn’t make sense because harder to treat sweat glands would obviously need higher energy) This time I experienced no improvement in sweat whatsoever, and was sweating again the very next day which indicates the procedure was not done correctly. I called to discuss this and my call was ignored. Weeks later, after more calls, I was told to come in to follow up with Dr Carter. He did a sweat test to confirm there was, in fact, no improvement in sweat. He then made excuses and talked in circles giving me no real solution other than to pay another thousand dollars for a 3rd treatment. He said he would try to figure out a better option and called me, but I never heard from him again. Over $3000 spent at this spa. No attempt to make it right. If you’re unsatisfied, you’ll be ignored. Go elsewhere for Miradry.

The Glow team is amazing! Every step of the way, Dr Carter and Katrina made sure I was aware of what was going to happen and that I was comfortable before, during, and after my procedure. I felt well taken care of. I am still recovering after my Fractional CO2 Laser procedure, but easily look 10 years younger. I am in awe of how smooth my skin is. I happily show my recovery photos to family, friends, and co-workers. Would I do it again in the future? Absolutely! It’s made a huge difference for me and how I feel about myself, as I’m about to turn 58.

I Love This Place!! I recently went in for a VI Peel and had the best experience. The staff are so welcoming and friendly and they absolutely provide the best care. My peel was painless and I was given great directions for my after home care. I have gotten so many compliments on my skin since the peel, I can’t wait to go back for another one. Highly recommend.

LOVE Glow Aesthetic. I had called around to a couple different cosmetic surgery establishments before reading the reviews and doing my research on Dr. Carter. I decided to go in for a consultation, and was blown away by the friendly front office staff and Dr. Carter’s professionalism and friendliness. I have since referred my mother for cosmetic surgery that she is extremely happy with, AND my husband is now seeing Katrina for PRP. I will continue to refer my friends and family to Glow, and look forward to working with them in the future.
