At Desjarlais Aesthetic Center, we believe the best aesthetic trends are those grounded in expertise, safety, and proven outcomes. Here’s what’s hot in medspas for 2026—and how to experience these innovations the right way.

Precision Injectables & Natural Results

The era of the “overfilled” look is officially over. In 2026, injectables are all about precision, balance, and subtle enhancement.

Micro-dosing techniques, strategic placement, and customized treatment plans allow providers to refresh the face while preserving natural movement and expression. Patients want to look rested, confident, and refreshed—not dramatically altered.

• Neuromodulators (Botox®, Dysport®): Still the most popular non-surgical aesthetic treatments worldwide, neuromodulators are increasingly used for prejuvenation—preventing lines before they deepen. Off-label applications such as masseter slimming and lip flips are also trending for subtle, natural-looking enhancement.
• Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Dermal Fillers (Juvéderm®, Restylane®): HA fillers remain a cornerstone of aesthetic medicine, but the focus has shifted toward restoring structure, balance, and facial harmony rather than simply adding volume.

At Desjarlais Aesthetic Center, Dr. Desjarlais emphasizes facial anatomy, proportion, and long-term planning, ensuring every injectable treatment complements your unique features and aesthetic goals.

Well-Aging Over Anti-Aging

The language of aesthetics is evolving—and for good reason. In 2026, patients are embracing well-aging, a philosophy focused on maintaining healthy, resilient skin rather than attempting to “reverse” aging.

Well-aging prioritizes treatments and skincare that strengthen the skin barrier, reduce chronic inflammation, protect against environmental stressors, and support healthy cellular function. Longevity-focused serums, medical-grade skincare, and consistent maintenance treatments are becoming essential components of aesthetic care.

At Desjarlais, we guide patients toward evidence-based solutions designed to support skin health today while protecting it for years to come.

Laser & Energy-Based Treatments Continue to Lead

Advanced laser and energy-based treatments remain at the forefront of medspa care in 2026, addressing concerns such as pigmentation, redness, texture, fine lines, laxity, and overall skin clarity.

What’s changed is customization. Today’s technologies allow treatments to be more precise, more comfortable, and safer across a wider range of skin types. Several technologies at Desjarlais Aesthetic Center continue to stand the test of time:

• Ellacor® Micro-Coring Technology: Often described as a non-surgical mini facelift alternative, ellacor removes microscopic columns of aged tissue to stimulate collagen renewal with minimal downtime. It is highly customizable for improving texture, pigmentation, and scarring.
• RF Microneedling (Morpheus8®): This combination therapy remains a gold standard for tightening and resurfacing, addressing acne scars, fine lines, and skin laxity by delivering radiofrequency energy deep into the skin.
• XERF® Skin Tightening: These non-invasive RF treatments lift and firm the face, neck, and select body areas by targeting deeper structural layers—ideal for patients seeking noticeable tightening without surgery.
• IPL / BBL® Treatments: A staple for treating redness, rosacea, sun damage, and uneven tone, IPL continues to be a key component of comprehensive skin rejuvenation plans.
• But don’t forget about additional tried and true lasers like DermaV, Ultra, and Clarity II!

All laser and energy-based treatments at Desjarlais Aesthetic Center are performed with medical oversight and personalized protocols to maximize results while minimizing downtime.

Combination Treatments for Better Outcomes

One of the most effective trends of 2026 is combination therapy—strategically pairing injectables, lasers, facials, and medical-grade skincare to achieve superior results.

Rather than relying on a single treatment, combination plans address skin concerns from multiple angles, leading to more natural, longer-lasting improvements. These plans require expertise and a deep understanding of how treatments work together.

At Desjarlais Aesthetic Center, combination treatment plans are thoughtfully designed to deliver visible results while prioritizing skin health, safety, and recovery.
