Uneven texture, fine lines, enlarged pores, and small asymmetries in your features can make you feel like your face does not match how youthful you feel inside. Skincare alone often cannot smooth deep wrinkles or soften scars, and makeup can only hide so much before it starts to look heavy.
This is where pairing advanced resurfacing technology at Essential Aesthetics & Health with injectable artistry makes a real difference. Solaria CO2 laser helps renew the surface of the skin, while facial balancing with fillers or neuromodulators refines structure and symmetry. Add Aura AI skin analysis at the planning stage, and your treatment becomes far more precise and tailored to what your skin actually needs.
How Solaria CO2 Laser Improves Skin Texture
Solaria is a fractional CO2 laser used for skin resurfacing and collagen stimulation. It creates tiny microchannels in the skin while leaving the surrounding tissue intact. Your body responds by shedding damaged cells and building fresh collagen and elastin.
With a series of treatments and proper aftercare, Solaria can help:
- Smooth fine lines and deeper wrinkles
- Soften acne and surgical scars
- Improve sun damage, age spots, and uneven tone
- Refine rough texture and enlarged pores
Downtime varies, but most people experience several days of redness and peeling, followed by weeks of gradual firming and smoothing. Think of Solaria as a way to renew the “canvas” of your skin so it looks clearer, tighter, and more radiant.
Facial Balancing With Fillers And Neuromodulators
Facial balancing focuses on proportion, not perfection. The goal is to enhance your natural features so they look more harmonious from every angle, without making you look overdone.
Two main tools are used:
- Dermal fillers to add or restore volume in areas like the cheeks, chin, jawline, lips, and temples
- Neuromodulators to relax overactive muscles that create lines or pull features downward
Facial balancing can help:
- Strengthen a weak chin to complement the nose and jaw
- Restore cheek volume to reduce under-eye shadows
- Define a soft or sagging jawline
- Relax frown lines, forehead creases, or crow’s feet
- Lift the brows slightly for a more open, rested look
The key is subtlety. Small, strategic changes in volume and muscle activity can noticeably improve symmetry while keeping your expression natural.
Why Solaria CO2 And Facial Balancing Work Better Together
You can think of the face in two key layers. The surface layer is where you see pores, fine lines, pigment, and roughness. The deeper structural layer is where bone, fat pads, and muscle shape your profile and symmetry.
Solaria CO2 laser focuses mainly on the surface and helps with:
- Smoothing etched lines and wrinkles
- Softening acne scars and texture irregularities
- Brightening and evening out pigmentation
- Improving overall firmness through new collagen
Facial balancing with fillers and neuromodulators focuses on shape and movement underneath the skin:
- Fillers can rebuild midface support so the under eyes look less shadowed and the folds around the mouth appear softer.
- Chin and jawline contouring can create a more defined lower face, which instantly improves harmony with the nose, lips, and cheeks.
- Neuromodulators can reduce lines formed by repetitive expressions and relax muscles that drag the brows or mouth corners down.
When you combine both approaches, you are not only smoothing the skin but also refining how light hits your face. Texture, tone, and contour all improve together, which is why results often look more natural and complete.
Aura AI Skin Analysis: Creating A Smarter Plan
Aura AI skin analysis is an advanced 3D imaging system that captures a detailed model of your face and neck. It gives your provider more information than a quick visual exam or a simple photo.
Aura can:
- Map fine lines, wrinkles, pores, and pigment
- Highlight redness, brown spots, and texture issues
- Show volume distribution and facial symmetry from multiple angles
- Provide measurable scores and visual comparisons over time
During your consultation, your provider can rotate and zoom your 3D images to explain what is happening on the surface and in deeper layers. This shared view helps you understand why certain areas are chosen for Solaria and others for fillers or neuromodulators.
Because Aura tracks changes across visits, you can see how your skin and facial structure respond to each treatment, rather than relying on memory or lighting differences in photos.
What A Combined Treatment Plan Might Look Like
Every plan is personalized, but a typical sequence might be:
1. Consultation And Aura AI Scan
You discuss your concerns, history, and goals. Aura imaging is performed to analyze your skin and facial symmetry. Based on the results, your provider outlines a staged plan that may include Solaria sessions and injectable treatments.
2. Solaria CO2 Laser Session
On treatment day, numbing cream is applied, then the Solaria handpiece is passed across the skin in controlled patterns. You may feel heat and a light stinging sensation. Afterward, expect redness, swelling, and peeling for several days as your skin renews.
3. Facial Balancing With Fillers And Neuromodulators
Injectables may be done on the same day or at a follow-up, depending on your plan. Fillers are placed in areas that benefit from more support or contour. Neuromodulators are injected into selected muscles to soften lines and adjust facial expression patterns.
4. Follow Up And Aura Rescan
A follow-up appointment allows your provider to assess healing, symmetry, and overall effect. A new Aura scan can be compared to your baseline to show changes in texture, pigment, and contour. If needed, your plan can be refined with additional laser sessions or touch-up injections.
Who May Be A Good Candidate
You might be a good fit for Solaria CO2 plus facial balancing if:
- You have wrinkles, scars, or sun damage you would like to reduce
- You notice mild to moderate asymmetry or feel your features look unbalanced in photos
- You want natural-looking results rather than a dramatic change
- You can commit to sun protection and post-treatment care
Your provider will review your medical history, skin type, and expectations to confirm if this combination is appropriate and to adjust intensity based on your downtime tolerance and lifestyle.
