Sculptra
Sculptra is a biostimulator that boosts skin collagen production to restore the youthful plumpness of healthy skin and combat wrinkles and sagging. Unlike dermal fillers that enhance facial volume, this treatment stimulates collagen development in the body. As a result of an increase in collagen synthesis, it helps soften wrinkles and restore facial volume.
Collagen is a structural protein found in connective tissue that promotes healthy connective tissue. Its purpose is to maintain the skin firm, young, and smooth. As we, our body’s collagen production decreases, and wrinkles and drooping may begin to appear. Sculptra helps to reproduce collagen naturally and is the only form of a liquid facelift on the market today.
At Studio R Aesthetics, Dr. Segura uses Sculptra in many ways to help you look and feel your best!
Some of the benefits of using Sculptra aesthetic are:
Minimized appearance of skin imperfections.
Enhanced volume in volume-deficient areas of the face.
Reduced appearance of facial wrinkles.
More youthful appearance.
Minimal downtime.

My name is Matt Street. I have been a client and patient with Studio R for well over a year. Over this time, I have used many of the services provided by Dr. Segura, and Dr. Itri. All of the services have been top-notch. Recently, I received a hydro-facial from Michelle. To say it was an amazing and invigorating experience would be an understatement. Michelle uses cutting edge technology to meticulously treat the face and neck area. I typically get about 3-4 facials a year and Michelle is, by far, the best to ever do it. Her expertise includes deep knowledge on how to maintain healthy skin. She provided me with many cost-effective options to continue to maintain a healthy skin routine. I highly recommend Michelle for all your facial needs. I will be exclusively using her services going forward. Thanks, Matt

Dr. Segura is one of the kindest, most patient, and skilled physicians I have seen in all my years receiving fillers and Botox. I have not been happy in the past with the results of tox and fillers from others. Dr. Segura has made such a difference in how I feel. Definitely do not pay attention to the very few negative received as I can only assume they are from her competitors.

Dr. Segura exceeded all of my expectations from start to finish. I simply cannot recommend her enough for the most thorough, professional and impressive results.

Dr. Segura and the team are so thorough. She took her time explaining every option and providing a breakdown of cost, time, healing, etc. Will definitely come again.

I had a facial done by Michelle she done fantastic. And I had botex by Dr segura very informative and gentle. Definitely will be a repeat customer!!!

Outstanding service. It was my first time doing this and Michelle was great! She answered all my questions and I learned a lot during the sugaring!

My eyebrows have never looked as good as when Michelle does it! She listens and does exactly what you want!

I have been a client here for over a year now. I recall my first visit with Dr. Segura and how nervous and intimidated I was. Not for long though! Her quiet, calm and confident manner set me at ease and assured me that I was at the right place and in the right hands. The professional team at Studio R are so friendly and customer focused. I’m not even sure how I came to find them but I am certainly glad I did!!

Dr. Segura was so kind and informative. She took her time to explain everything to me and even made some recommendations based on my goals.

Michele is a very talented aesthetician who has taken a great deal of time educating me about all of the options that align with my skin care goals for aging and sensitive skin. She is incredibly skilled and adjusts the methods she uses based on what works. She’s top notch; can’t recommend enough.

Love this place and there snacks! Michelle is absolutely the best waxer ever! She has been waxing me for years and always leaves me with amazing results. (:

I recently had the RHA filler procedure done by Dr Brandy Segura. I had my lips, corners of my mouth and chin area worked on. I was numbed up before the procedure, which made it very comfortable. The procedure went very well,and I was very pleased with the filler used. It’s been three weeks now and I am very pleased with the end results.

I love the space and the staff! Michelle does my facials lashes and brows. I absolutely enjoy my time with Studio R!

I decided to make a Brazilian waxing appointment at Studio R Aesthetics after a friend highly suggested them to me. I was not disappointed. The area is posh, welcoming, and luxurious. Michelle was patient with me as I asked questions and made sure I felt at ease during the wax. She was conversational enough to where I felt less tense, but not so much that I felt like I couldn’t enjoy the experience. I could tell she was very knowledgeable and she gave me a detailed 101 in sugaring vs. waxing. I’ve only dipped my toe into one small area of services here… they have so many more to offer! I’ll definitely be back!

What a tranquil environment! Walking into a very calm and clean reception area I was greeted almost immediately and taken back for my appointment fairly quickly. Michelle provided my services of a hydrofacial and waxing. Michelle was very professional and continued to educate me throughout the entire process. I learned so much about my skin and not only was rejuvenated but relaxed and at times, dozed off. I would highly recommend Studio R for any needs. All staff I came in contact with were friendly and beyond helpful.

I just recently moved (to Lynchburg) and was looking for an injector in a reasonable distance. I found Dr. Segura and loved the fact that she prefers to do the injecting work herself! I had Botox and fillers and when I asked about fillers she was very honest with me about what would help and make me happy. She didn’t try to sell me on more filler even when I thought it’s what I wanted! She was thorough, kind, and extremely gentle. And I’m obsessed with the results! Easily the best experience I’ve had! 10/10

Dr. Segura is fantastic. She has a wide range of minimally invasive options and during my initial consultation discussed the pros and cons of the treatments. I’ve had 2 of the 3 CoolPeel treatments that I purchased and I’m so happy with the results so far.

If I could give 10 stars I totally would! For starters this office is GORGEOUS with an amazing vibe and quality music if I might add. Most importantly, Dr. Segura is AMAZING. Not only is she super kind and walks you through every step, but she listens to you and what YOU want and that is super important. I am OBSESSED with my lips and I plan to return for filler and other services in the future. You can tell Dr. Segura knows what she's doing & I love that 👏 The front desk staff were also super kind and did I mention, the office is BEAUTIFUL 🤩 I 100% recommend. If you're on the fence, do it! You won't regret it.

Very thorough explanation of services and offerings, allowing the patient to come to an informed, personal decision as to their treatment. Excellent.

Every aspect of my experience at Studio R was amazing! The studio is incredibly clean and gorgeous - creating a relaxing, luxurious experience. All the staff are friendly, accommodating, and professional. My Botox and filler consultation with Dr. Segura was extremely informative and honest. This was my first time getting Botox/filler so she walked me through the basics, what to expect, pricing, areas of my face to prioritize over others, etc. She spelled everything out for me so there were no surprises! My Botox/filler combo appointment went extremely well. She made sure I was comfortable the entire time by checking in frequently. To her credit, it was a lot less painful than I anticipated due to the numbing cream and distraction device/methods she uses. It’s been a week since my appointment and I am SO happy with my results! She reduced my “gummy” smile with lip filler and also reduced TMJ related pain I was having with Botox. Studio R is a 1000 / 10!

I am 75 years old and never thought it's possible to have that younger look. With the pleasant attention and treatment, I have received from the qualified staff, at Studio. R Aesthetics, It is possible. I am a happier 75-year-old and younger looking than before.

My visit to studio R Aesthetics was great very clean environment and friendly staff. I went in for a chemical peel for my melasma and hyperpigmentation. Physician Michelle Morris took her time listening and explain me that it’s better if I wait not to get a chemical peel since I have rosacea. I like her honesty that she was worry about my skin rather than doing some procedure that I don’t need. So she recommended a facial which I really liked my skin felt much smoother and brighter main thing my rosacea did not flair up either after the procedure. All there products are great at the clinic she suggested to get some daily power defense moisturizer by zo which works great on my skin. I would Definitely recommend studio R.

I had my eyebrows tinted and shaped by Michelle. It was my first time having my eye brows professionally shaped and I was nervous. Michelle was wonderful and spend an hour and 20 minutes with me. I was so impressed and will make this a monthly part of my self care routine now.

I love how upscale and comforting this salon feels. Every team member I've worked with has been very happy to help me as well.

The BEST in Charlottesville for lip filler and lash extensions! Dr. Segura and Michelle are so amazing to work with and my results are always perfection. I recommend Studio R to all of my friends and family.

I met with Dr. Segura to learn more about semglutide. The entire experience was lovely, their receptionist was super friendly and the office is beautiful. Dr. Segura was very informative and thorough.

I love coming here! I’ve been coming here for the past year for a variety of things and have always had a positive experience.

Dr. Segura is the best! She is very patient explaining all procedures to me carefully and thoroughly, and her results are terrific. I am often nervous before procedures and she is supportive of an incremental approach. Highly recommend.

Such an awesome staff!! So sweet and informative. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Had a great experience at Studio R. Received a facial from Michelle who is an incredible aesthetician, and the front desk staff, Cat and Emily, were extremely friendly and courteous as well. 10/10 highly recommend!

Studio R Aesthetics is amazing! Michelle has been my go to for my waxing needs for many years and I’m super happy to have found this wonderful place. It’s absolutely gorgeous and welcoming. And everyone is so sweet! I had a facial done today with Michelle and it was hands down the BEST facial ever. 5 stars isn’t enough, I would definitely recommend!!

Amazing salon and very personable staff. Will absolutely return! Michelle was great and the sugaring process was as painless as possible!

I got a facial done by Ms. Morris a few weeks ago. I am trying to heal my skin more natural since i got off my prescriptions. She is absolutely fantastic! I am getting facials done until she says i can get a chemical peel to help with my acne. So excited for it. Even if you don't have skin issues, treat yourself! It is worth it. I wish i could afford to go every week haha i totally would. Edit: not sure if she is "dr or md" but she's a licensed esthetician 🙂

I love it here! I was new to the area and needed someone I can trust with all of my aesthetic needs. I had been to another medspa and wasn't quite impressed. So I scheduled a Botox appointment with Dr. Segura and after discussing my concerns I decided to go with Xeomin instead. Dr. Segura was so gentle and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. My comfort mattered to her! I've never experienced that before. She was so amazing that I decided to schedule an appointment with Michelle. I received a HydraFacial and brow wax and was blown away with how meticulous she is. I'm looking forward to my next visit!

August 2023 I am so glad I found this place. Sollepelle has relieved all of my symptoms. I have not felt this great in years. Last week, some of my symptoms returned as I am likely ready for new pellets. Dr. Itri responded to my email within minutes and had my lab orders at the lab soon thereafter. It is absolutely the best service I have received in a very long time! Get your hormones checked! It’s life changing. May 2023 I started Sollepelle in May as the compound drug prescribed by my doctor made me feel worse. I continue to feel great. I’m so thankful I found this practice.

Studio R Aesthetics is amazing! I get my lash extensions done by Michelle and she is so wonderful. The extensions are beautiful and long lasting. Dr. Segura and staff are all so sweet and professional. The studio is beautiful and flawless as well!

I had been scheduling my facials with Michelle Morris at her previous place of employment, so was thrilled to “find” her at Studio R. There are many options in Charlottesville for facial treatments, but none I have found with Michelle’s passion for, and commitment to, continuing to educate herself in all things skin care. So glad she landed in such a wonderful environment- I thoroughly enjoyed my experience there and look forward to getting my daughter booked with her as well.

Beautiful office and great service! I felt very comfortable and able to discuss treatment options to choose the best for me. Can’t wait to come back!

I have been coming here even when she was at the old location. The best work done and they ensure that you feel comfortable during any spa treatment.

Dr. Segura is simply amazing! She took all my worries and concerns into account and gave me honest feedback. Not to mention she does an incredible job! I have not felt this good about myself in many years! She gave me back confidence and I could not be more appreciative of her! The staff are amazing and treat you with such kindness! Fantastic place with remarkable results!
Sculptra FAQs
Sculptra Aesthetic is injected under the skin. This treatment stimulates the production of collagen in the body. As collagen synthesis increases, wrinkles become softer and facial volume is restored.
Sculptra cosmetic results are gradual. This cosmetic injectable does not produce a dramatic, immediate improvement in facial fullness. Most patients choose to have a series of treatment sessions to increase the best volume over a few months.
Injections can cause bruising, bleeding, itching, swelling, soreness, discomfort, and redness. These symptoms will subside after 2-6 days.
Dr. Segura will give you both verbal and written after-care instructions following your treatment. Massaging the treated region 5 minutes 5 times a day for 5 days is strongly advised since it is important for long-term effects and preventing nodules from developing.
Because Sculptra encourages your own body to generate collagen, this procedure takes time, generally about six weeks. The majority of our patients notice full effects after 2-3 treatments.
After all of your treatments are finished, you can anticipate your results to last two to three years.

Radiesse
Radiesse volume-increasing facial filler can help you look years younger by reducing not just wrinkles and creases but also hollows and hands – all during a quick lunch break! Most of our patients at Studio R Aesthetics notice significant results right away and are able to enjoy the youthful effects for up to two years. Radiesse has long-term benefits that may help you avoid getting re-injected. In the long run, compared to other dermal fillers, these advantages save you money and time.
The Radiesse is the best option for correcting overall facial contouring. Without invasive surgery or scarring, it may restore a healthy, youthful appearance, enhance your current features, help you defy age and gravity, and boost your confidence. Radiesse dermal filler is a water-based gel containing calcium microspheres suspended in it.
Dr. Segura uses Radiesse injections to treat the following areas :
Smile lines: Also called nasolabial folds, sometimes also known as the nose-cheek lines, are the lines that run from the nostrils to the corners of the mouth.
Marionette lines: Smile lines run down from the corners of the mouth.
Corners of the mouth: Mouth corners (or commissure) come together at a point called the philtrum, and turning them downward can make you appear frowning.
Pre-jowl fold: The area that sags when the facial volume decreases on either side of the chin.
Chin wrinkles - Appear as horizontal lines that can form on your chin and distract from your smile.
Radiesse FAQs
Radiesse is a facial filler that contains calcium hydroxyapatite suspended in a water-based gel. The lifting capability of this cream is perfect for increasing volume and shape in the temples, cheeks, and chin areas.
Radiesse injections have an immediate effect and may last up to a year or longer in certain patients. The condition of the skin determines the length of time that filler correction is required to be treated, the injection technique utilized, and the speed with which the patient’s body breaks down the filler.
Bruising is possible, plan for 2 weeks ahead of any events/vacations.
There might be minor side effects, such as bruising or mild swelling, easily hidden with cosmetics. To prevent bruising, avoid taking medicines and supplements such as baby aspirin and fish oil.
Most of Dr. Segura’s patients claim that there is little or no discomfort during treatment. You may get a numbing cream if needed.
Radiesse immediately restores volume to even out the signs of aging after injection. In many patients, the natural-looking effects may be apparent for a year or longer, depending on the client.
