5 Energy & Glow Boosters Every Woman Over 40 Should Know About
If you've looked in the mirror lately and thought, I just don't feel like myself anymore, you're not alone.
Many women notice subtle changes in their 40s. Energy isn't quite what it used to be. Skin loses some of its glow. Fine lines seem to stick around a little longer, and recovering from a busy week takes more effort.
The good news? You don't have to accept these changes as your new normal.
At Carla Thomas Med Spa, we offer treatments designed to help you feel refreshed, energized, and confident—without looking overdone. Here are five of our favorite ways to support your skin and overall wellness after 40.
1. Boost Your Energy with NAD+ Therapy
Feeling mentally foggy or physically drained?
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a naturally occurring coenzyme that plays a vital role in cellular energy production. As we age, our NAD+ levels naturally decline, which may contribute to fatigue, brain fog, and slower recovery.
NAD+ injections help replenish these levels and may support:
Increased energy
Improved mental clarity
Better focus
Healthy aging
Cellular repair
Many of Carla's patients say this treatment helps them feel more like themselves again—not wired, just refreshed.
2. Restore Collagen with SkinPen® Microneedling
Collagen production naturally slows after age 40, making fine lines, enlarged pores, acne scars, and uneven texture more noticeable.
SkinPen® Microneedling is an FDA-cleared treatment that stimulates your body's natural collagen production by creating tiny microchannels in the skin.
Benefits include:
Smoother skin texture
Softer fine lines
Improved acne scars
Smaller-looking pores
Brighter, healthier-looking skin
Want even more dramatic results? Ask about adding PRP to your treatment.
3. Brighten Your Skin with a Medical-Grade Chemical Peel
One of the quickest ways to refresh dull skin is with a professional chemical peel.
Chemical peels gently remove dead skin cells to reveal brighter, smoother skin underneath while improving:
Sun damage
Uneven skin tone
Fine lines
Rough texture
Early signs of aging
At Carla Thomas Med Spa, we offer SkinMedica® Illuminize, Vitalize, and Rejuvenize peels. Your provider will recommend the best option based on your skin and your goals.
Because your skin changes throughout the year, every peel is customized to what your skin needs that day.
4. Refresh Your Look with Natural-Looking Tox
One of the biggest misconceptions about neurotoxins is that they should make you look different.
At Carla Thomas Med Spa, our goal is exactly the opposite.
Whether you're choosing Jeuveau or Daxxify, Carla takes a conservative approach that softens expression lines while helping you maintain natural movement and facial expression.
You should still look like yourself—just a little more rested.
If you're new to tox, don't worry. Every appointment begins with a conversation about your goals, and together you'll create a treatment plan that's right for you.
5. Invest in Monthly Facials
If there is one treatment our estheticians wish everyone prioritized, it's regular facials.
Monthly facials allow your skin to be evaluated and treated based on what it needs right now. Seasonal changes, stress, dehydration, hormonal fluctuations, and breakouts all affect your skin differently throughout the year.
Your treatment is customized every single visit.
Many patients also choose to add Celluma PRO LED Light Therapy, which helps reduce inflammation, stimulate collagen production, and support the skin's natural healing process.
Consistent professional skincare is one of the best long-term investments you can make for healthy, glowing skin.
