Not every aesthetic concern calls for surgery. Fine lines, early volume loss, sun damage, uneven tone, and textural changes generally respond well to injectable and energy-based treatments, most of which require little or no downtime. Dr. Claire B. Davis is a board eligible female plastic surgeon in Asheville offering a comprehensive non-surgical menu, delivered with the same anatomical precision that guides her surgical work.
Injectables are frequently administered by providers with limited anatomical training. Dr. Davis completed a six-year integrated plastic surgery residency at UT Southwestern Medical Center and treats injectable work as an extension of facial surgery — informed by a detailed understanding of the facial planes, vasculature, and musculature beneath the needle. She is a member of Alpha Omega Alpha and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
Treatments are delivered in the same private, accredited facility where she performs surgery, and her approach to non-surgical work follows the same principle as her surgery: results should look refreshed rather than treated.
Laser skin resurfacing uses focused light energy to improve tone, texture, pigment, and early signs of aging.
Lip fillers add subtle volume and definition to the lips using hyaluronic acid injectables, refreshing balance and shape without surgery.
Kybella is an injectable treatment that reduces fat beneath the chin to refine the profile of the chin and jawline.
A chemical peel is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for revitalizing skin tone, texture, and clarity.
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin-resurfacing treatment that gently exfoliates the outermost layer of skin to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion.
MOXI is a gentle, non-ablative fractional laser by Sciton that refreshes tone, texture, and early sun damage with little downtime.
TriBrid laser combines three wavelengths in one treatment to target multiple skin concerns simultaneously. Dr. Davis uses this advanced Sciton technology to address pigmentation, vascular issues, and skin texture for efficient, comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Non-surgical treatment is most effective when it is matched honestly to the concern. Neuromodulators soften lines caused by muscle movement, fillers replace lost volume, and lasers address the skin surface itself — but none of them lift tissue that has descended. Where the underlying concern is laxity rather than texture or volume, Dr. Davis will say so and discuss surgical facial rejuvenation instead of recommending a treatment unlikely to satisfy you.
Neuromodulators such as Botox and Dysport typically last three to four months. Hyaluronic acid fillers generally last six to eighteen months depending on the product and the area treated. Sculptra builds gradually and lasts considerably longer.
Most injectable treatments allow an immediate return to normal activity, with some temporary swelling or bruising. Laser treatments vary — MOXI involves minimal downtime, while more intensive resurfacing requires several days of visible healing.
Yes. Laser resurfacing and injectables are frequently used to complement surgical results, addressing skin quality and pigment that surgery does not treat.
