Your skin tells the story of your life, but sometimes it could use help writing the next chapter. At Forever Young Aesthetics in Birmingham, Michigan, we offer evidence-based skin treatments designed to improve skin quality, build collagen, and help you look naturally refreshed. Led by Marisa Badanjek, FNP-C, our approach focuses on understanding your skin’s unique needs and creating gradual, sustainable improvements that enhance your natural beauty.
The signs of aging and environmental damage accumulate gradually. Sun exposure breaks down collagen and elastin fibers, creating fine lines and uneven texture.
Natural aging slows cellular turnover, leaving skin looking dull or rough. Hormonal changes affect oil production and skin thickness. Genetics influence how quickly these changes appear and where they show up first.
Understanding these biological processes helps us choose treatments that work with your skin’s natural healing abilities rather than against them. Every effective skin treatment addresses one or more of these underlying causes, which is why a medical approach produces more predictable, lasting results than surface-level solutions.
Comprehensive Skin Rejuvenation Treatments
These treatments focus on improving skin quality by stimulating collagen, increasing cellular turnover, and addressing texture, tone, and early signs of aging. Results develop gradually as your skin repairs and strengthens itself over time.
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve overall texture. It is often used for fine lines, enlarged pores, and mild scarring, with minimal downtime and gradual improvement over a series of treatments.
This treatment combines microneedling with targeted heat energy to reach deeper layers of the skin. It helps tighten existing collagen while encouraging new collagen production, making it useful for improving firmness, texture, and early skin laxity.
Medical-grade chemical peels remove damaged surface layers and support cellular renewal. VI Peels are commonly used for pigmentation, acne, and uneven skin tone, helping reveal clearer, more even skin over time.
Platelet-rich plasma and fibrin use your body’s own growth factors to support healing and collagen production. These treatments are often used to improve skin quality in delicate areas and can help with scarring, under-eye concerns, and overall skin texture.
EzGEL uses your body’s natural regenerative response to support subtle volume and skin quality improvement. It is commonly used in areas like the under-eyes and folds where a softer, more gradual approach is preferred.
The best candidates for skin treatments are people with realistic expectations who understand that meaningful improvement happens gradually. You might benefit from professional treatment if you notice changes in skin texture, tone, or firmness that concern you.
Sun damage, fine lines, enlarged pores, acne scarring, or uneven pigmentation often respond well to medical-grade treatments. Your skin type, medical history, and lifestyle all influence which treatments work best for your situation.
During consultation, Marisa evaluates these factors along with your specific concerns and goals. Some conditions require medical clearance before treatment, while others may need different approaches based on your skin's sensitivity or healing capacity.
The goal is always to choose treatments that are safe for your skin type and likely to produce the improvements you're seeking.
Effective skin treatment is a process, not a single event. Your first appointment involves a thorough consultation where Marisa examines your skin, discusses your concerns, and explains how different treatments address your specific issues. She’ll outline realistic timelines and expectations, including how many sessions you might need and what kind of results are achievable for your skin type and concerns.
Most treatments require a series of sessions spaced weeks apart to build optimal results. Between appointments, you’ll follow specific aftercare instructions to support healing and maximize your investment.
Results typically develop gradually over weeks to months as your skin repairs and regenerates. The improvements you see are your own skin functioning better, which means results integrate naturally with your appearance and tend to last longer than temporary solutions.

Microneedling RF may cause redness for 1–3 days, while a VI Peel involves light peeling starting around day 3 that resolves by day 5–6.
