See why so many choose Murphy Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa to revitalize their skin and treat cosmetic imperfections.
Our Non-Surgical Procedures
BOTOX and Neurotoxins
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a minimally invasive injectable treatment that relaxes the muscles and smooths the skin for several months. BOTOX can minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and even prevent new ones from forming. In addition to BOTOX, we offer Dysport, Xeomin, Jeauveau, and Daxxify.
Dermal Fillers
Injectable facial treatments can revitalize your facial appearance without surgical intervention. We have a suite of JUVÉDERM® fillers and can find one that meets your goals. Dermal fillers can add youthful volume to areas of the face, reduce sagging skin, smooth fine lines and wrinkles, plump the lips, fill in depressed temples or tear troughs, sculpt cheeks, and refine the jawline and chin.
Elite IQ Laser
The Elite iQ™ laser for customizable treatment that precisely targets the treatment area and protects the skin around it. It can safely be used on skin types 1-6, effectively treating concerns from head to toe in a few treatment sessions. This laser can treat spider veins and visible blood vessels, or remove hair. The hair can be fine or coarse, but it has to be dark.
PicoSure Laser
We are one of the only offices in the Reno area to offer the PicoSure® laser, which targets and treats pigmentation concerns on any area of the body. It can even safely treat darker skin tones (skin types 1-6). We offer a package of three treatments spaced four weeks apart. This laser uses different wavelengths to remove unwanted tattoos, treat melasma, minimize sun damage, smooth fine lines and wrinkles, and more.
IPL Photofacial
Intense pulsed light therapy is a laser treatment that can improve the appearance of red and brown spots. The laser can be used on any area of the body but is typically used to treat the face, neck, and chest. IPL can't be used on darker skin tones and is best for skin types 1-3. IPL can treat sun damage, meaning it corrects color and texture.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are a versatile treatment that makes your skin peel in the days after treatment. Our Reno office offers two types of chemical peels, depending on your cosmetic goals. Peels are safe for all skin types and result in minimal discomfort. Chemical peels can treat acne, rosacea, fine lines, wrinkles, and other common concerns.
DiamondGlow
DiamondGlow® is a medical-grade dermabrasion device that uses diamond tips to exfoliate the skin. It applies gentle suction to clear pores and provide a deep clean, then infuses serums into the skin for a long-lasting glow. DiamondGlow is gentler than traditional dermabrasion because of the serums and is a great choice to maintain your results after other treatments. Treatment can improve signs of aging, address dry skin, minimize hyperpigmentation, improve uneven texture, target photodamage, and more.
PDO Thread Lift
Our Aesthetic Nurses can place biocompatible polydioxanone (PDO) threads under the skin to lift and tighten the face, neck, and décolletage. This non-invasive procedure is a great option for patients who want to address laxity in the skin but aren't quite ready for a surgical procedure.
The Benefits of Non-Surgical Procedures When Compared to Plastic Surgery
Minimally Invasive
Non-surgical procedures require no incisions or sutures, allowing you to reap the benefits of a beautiful appearance with less downtime. You may not even have to take off work—many procedures can be a quick stop in your day or something you can recover from over the weekend.
More Affordable
Surgery requires more time and resources than non-surgical procedures, making it more expensive. While our plastic surgeon serving Reno and Lake Tahoe, is happy to provide the right candidates with a surgical procedure, like brow lift, forehead lift, or CO2 laser, some patients aren't ready for that yet or are looking for a more affordable cosmetic treatment. Our procedures can fit comfortably into your budget.
Subtle, Personalized Results
Unlike sudden and dramatic results of surgery, Botox, dermal fillers, and our advanced lasers can subtly enhance your appearance over a period of time, guiding you toward your aesthetic aspirations. Our team is committed to personalizing a treatment plan that aligns with your aesthetic goals and budget. They will collaborate with you to continually fine-tune your results.
“Everyone at Murphy plastic surgery and medical spa has been so friendly and welcoming. I have been several times now to see Tatum for some skin concerns I was having. I don’t wear make up so my skin being clear and bright is very important to me. Tatum has been amazing. She has done done some work with the Pico laser and IPL laser that got rid of the few sun spots I had. Then she did a peel that brightened my skin. She really knows her stuff. I highly recommend you see for any skin concerns you have.”
Protecting Your Investment and Making Your Rejuvenation Last
After investing in a procedure that helps you achieve your skin goals, you want to maintain your results for as long as possible. Our Reno, NV, plastic surgery office and med spa will provide you with aftercare instructions that allow you to heal properly after your non-surgical rejuvenation. In the long term, we may also recommend:
The sun's harmful rays damage our skin over time, leading to signs of aging and other concerns. Wearing sunscreen every day can protect your skin and keep it healthy, which is important when you're putting so much time, effort, and money into achieving amazing results. Sunscreen is a must when receiving laser treatment and you may be instructed to avoid the sun's rays in the days leading up to and the days after your treatment.
After investing in a cosmetic treatment, an at-home skincare routine can go a long way in maintaining the health and beauty of your skin. In addition to wearing sunscreen, we recommend cleansing your skin at least once a day, moisturizing morning and night, and using retinol a few times a week at night. Our team serving Reno, Lake Tahoe, and beyond can make recommendations based on your skin type and concerns so you can make the most of your non-surgical rejuvenation.
Touch-up treatments can contribute to long-lasting results. Whether you receive the same treatment every month or treat a concern with one procedure, then switch to a chemical peel or dermabrasion to maintain your results, our office is proud to offer a range of services to help your skin stay youthful and free of blemishes. Some of our patients come to our Reno office every month for a PicoSure treatment, but we'll determine what's best for your goals.

I see Tatum for Picosure tattoo removal and the Skinpen microneedling. I'm super happy with both. I've never had clear skin until starting this treatment and now I get compliments on my skin!
