Facial balancing is the art of refining the proportions, symmetry, and overall appearance of the face. This process helps you look your best and empowers you with self-confidence.
At Restoration MedSpa, our team of highly trained medical providers augments your face for optimal facial balancing in Greensboro.
Our Process: What to Expect
Every transformation begins with a personalized, in-depth consultation. A member of our team listens to your aesthetic goals and concerns, learns your medication history, and assesses your skin and facial structure. They look for common facial imbalances such as volume loss, sagging skin, or disproportionate features.
After assessment, we choose from a selection of treatments and create a customized plan for you.
Your plan can include any of the following options for facial balancing in Greensboro.

Botox
Botox is a neurotoxin formulated with botulinum toxin A, designed to limit specific muscle movements in the face, temporarily reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. This cosmetic injectable is an FDA-approved “prejuvenation” (preventing the signs of aging) technique.
When Botox is injected into targeted facial muscles, it temporarily blocks signals from the brain to these muscles, softening facial movements and reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles.
Facial muscles begin to relax 3 to 7 days following the appointment, and the effects of Botox can last for 3 to 4 months. During this time, clients may notice less wrinkled skin for a refreshed, youthful appearance.
Common client concerns include the fear of a “frozen” look or “tox face.” At Restoration MedSpa, we prioritize natural results. Our founder and owner, Marisa Faircloth, PA-C, is a certified Master Level Injector and has been named one of the 100 Best Injectors in America for 7 consecutive years.
Botox Benefits
Botox improves the appearance of dynamic wrinkles. When carefully injected into the face, this neuromodulator reduces:
- The appearance of crow’s feet and undereye wrinkles
- Frown, forehead, and glabellar (vertical lines between your eyebrows) lines
- The appearance of a gummy smile, thin lips, and lipstick lines
- Migraine discomfort and jaw pain caused by temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder and bruxism or jaw clenching.
Praise for Botox
[Marisa is] patient and [imparts] genuine education…to her clients. She just speaks from results and what works for her and that is much appreciated. Her eye for the correct amount of Botox and filler is spot on. You can feel assured you are in good hands and will come out looking great! Do yourself a favor and book an appointment; you won’t regret it!

Dermal Filler
Another cosmetic injectable that we offer is dermal fillers, but instead of botulinum toxin A, fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid (HA) based gels. HA instantly restores lost facial volume to create plumper, less wrinkled skin. Fillers are a popular treatment option for facial balancing in Greensboro.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally produced substance that improves hydration and flexibility. When injected, HA increases the body’s collagen and elastin production, boosting overall skin health and structure for long-lasting results.
At the same time, the HA-based gel adds volume to sunken or hollow areas in the face, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This restores youthful volume, draws attention to natural features, and improves facial symmetry.
Results are instantaneous. Clients immediately notice restored volume in targeted areas of the face. Through a series of 1 to 4 sessions, each 1-6 months apart, Restoration MedSpa injectors can fine-tune client results for optimal facial balancing in Greensboro.
Filler Benefits
Dermal fillers subtly highlight clients’ natural features while providing a youthful, refreshed appearance. Dermal fillers are safe for the face, neck, décolletage, and lips, and yield the following benefits:
- Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Refines the appearance of the jawline, lips, and chin
- Can act as a non-surgical rhinoplasty
- Restores a youthful appearance and boosts self-confidence
Praise for Fillers
Marissa is amazing! I just can’t express this enough! I was so nervous, and she made it a breeze. I have never had an injector that you could not feel the needle! I was so impressed! Marissa is definitely my new injector! And if you don’t make her yours, then you’re missing out!

Kybella
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable that destroys fat cells and targets stubborn fat pockets. This cosmetic injection is commonly used to treat a “double chin,” enhancing neck and jawline contours.
Through a process known as lipolysis, or the breakdown of fat cells into energy by the metabolic system, Kybella permanently reduces fat in targeted areas. It breaks down the membranes of fat cells, causing them to rupture and die. The body then naturally eliminates these cells.
Clients may notice a slimmer neck and chin 4 to 6 weeks after their appointment. Eliminated fat cells do not “grow back” following Kybella injections, making this treatment permanent, as long as there is not a significant weight gain post-treatment.
Kybella Benefits
Kybella slims the chin and neck to complete your facial balancing in Greensboro. Recommended for clients with mild-to-moderate excess skin around the chin and neck, this cosmetic injection yields the following benefits:
- Reduces the appearance of a “double chin”
- Destroys small, stubborn, unwanted fat pockets
- Balances the chin and jawline

PDO Threads
Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are small, dissolvable sutures that stimulate collagen production for a subtle, natural lift. These threads are an FDA-approved, minimally invasive treatment option that yields gradual, long-lasting results.
After injecting a local anesthetic, a Restoration MedSpa provider uses a fine needle, known as a cannula, to place the PDO threads under the skin’s surface. These threads may be smooth, barbed, or twisted; each addresses a specific skin concern. Once placed, they are anchored to the skin and provide an immediate lift.
As the PDO threads begin to dissolve into the skin, collagen and elastin production increases, building around the PDO threads and allowing the skin to hold its new, lifted position. You may experience mild-to-moderate inflammation while your skin heals.
Full results begin to appear 4 to 12 months after the appointment. Clients may notice tighter, plumper, more hydrated skin as its overall health improves. These results can last for 1 to 3 years.
PDO Threads Benefits
Most commonly known for their “fox eye” effects and their use in facial balancing in Greensboro, PDO threads are safe for the face, neck, chin, upper arms, knees, chest, and abdomen, and yield the following benefits:
- Tighten loose skin to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
- Improve the appearance of crepey skin
- Refine the appearance of the jawline, neck, and cheeks
- Enhance skin texture and elasticity

Sculptra
Sculptra is an FDA-approved collagen injection that yields plumper, rejuvenated skin.
This biostimulator formulated with poly-L-lactic acid triggers the body’s natural healing process, prompting additional collagen and elastin production. These proteins provide the skin with structure, strength, and elasticity, creating noticeably healthier skin.
Results are gradual and may appear 1 to 4 months following the initial appointment. A series of 3 to 8 appointments, 4 to 6 weeks apart, should achieve optimal facial balancing in Greensboro, yielding results that last 2 to 5 years.

- Enhances skin texture and elasticity
