Who believes in superstantial beauty?
This world says beauty is either skin-deep or heartfelt. Here at Vi, we believe that the “superficial” and the “substantial” intersect somewhere between your smile and your soul. So come on in. Show up as you are – gorgeous, fear-filled, powerful, and in need of some yum for your lashes, your skin, and your spirit. Don’t worry how you’re showing up; just show up. We will too.

Dianne

Vulnerabilities: I am terrified of spiders, I can not watch a scary movie without watching a Disney movie right after, I am scared of letting someone down, I am scared of taking an unknown path in life
Joys: Fitness, walking my morkipoodle, spending time with family, online shopping, Starbucks, accomplishing a project
Alicia

Vulnerabilities: My biggest fear is being late, Therefore I wake up two minutes before my alarm clock every day. I also wish there were 7 or so more hours in a day to get everything done.
Joys: My biggest Joys are family and friends. I am blessed with two wonderful children and a wonderful husband who challenge me every day. I am also so blessed to make a living doing what I love and serving others.
Jelena

Vulnerabilities: Public speaking.
Joys: Working out. Spending time with my doodle, Benji. Ttraveling the world, and learning something new because there is always room for improvement.
Danielle

Vulnerabilities: Dressing rooms (too small, I’d rather shimmy into the item right in the open fresh air), being chased, that I won’t fit into the lines, that true belonging will mean bleeding outside the lines a bit, that I am not equipped to guide my children to genuine self-love. That I don’t have enough time for all the change I would like to see in myself.
Joys: Writing. Seeing my children smile when they do something that, deep in their heart, they are proud of. Rainbows, hand holding, the sun on my face. When I connect with another human in a present and meaningful way.
Ginger

Vulnerabilities: I fear letting people down, reading somebody the wrong way, and snakes.
Joys: The endorphin surge I get from working out, my kids’ milestones, seeing my patients results after treatments.
Brittany

Vulnerabilities: I don't like being put on the spot, am horrible at math, hate June bugs, and the wind scares me.
Joys: I love horror movies, camping in the summer with family, spending time with friends, and traveling (especially when a beach is involved!)
Jenn

Vulnerabilities: heights, natural disasters, failure, and poisonous spiders
Joys: watching my kiddos explore the world and achieve their goals (Climbing a tree! Scoring in soccer! Learning Spanish!), live music, nerdy board games and escape rooms, date nights with my husband, cabin time, Ted Lasso, cheesecake, and books.
Leah

Vulnerabilities: I’m terrified of clowns. Airplanes freak me out! I’m afraid of not leaving a mark. Change scares me.
Joys: Cooking, Playing Warzone, Taking care of my 2 puppies, Being an auntie.
Nicole

Vulnerabilities: Not meeting the expectations I've set for myself or set by others, downhill skiing, and swimming in weeds!
Joys: Helping family and friends, traveling to new places locally and internationally, snowy evenings in December, and watching my husband and 4 kids make each other laugh

Botox® Cosmetic
Pre and Post Care Instructions
Botox® Cosmetic Pre and Post Care Instructions
5 Days Before Treatment
- Avoid blood thinning over-the-counter medications such as Aspirin, Motrin and Aleve and fish oil pills. Tylenol is OK to use. Please notify practitioner if you are using prescription or non-prescription blood thinners so extra precaution can be taken to avoid bruising. If bruising occurs, it is most common around the eyes and can be covered using a green or yellow cover-up-stick. While we make every effort to avoid bruising, this may occur as the skin around the eyes is very thin and there are several small vessels in this area. Bruising is usually minimal and may take up to 7-14 days to resolve completely.
- To minimize bruising, apply OTC Arnica gel beginning 5 days before treatment.
- Before photos may be taken for our files and posted with client permission. Your treatment will take effect in anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks, but most commonly within 3-5 days. Since everybody is different, your BOTOX/Xeomin® Cosmetic treatment is tailored specially for you.
Post Treatment
- Immediately following your treatment, please do not lie down for 4 hours.
- Avoid any massage or pressure to the area, as this may disrupt placement of the drug. If you would like to re-apply makeup, please do so gently over the treated area.
- Refrain from heavy exercise for 4 hours.
- Contract and release the treated muscles every few minutes over the next hour. This helps with the “uptake” of the drug.
- Allergan, the manufacturer of BOTOX/Xeomin®, as well as our own patient experiences, report the average duration of results is approximately 3-4 months. It is important to maintain regular injection intervals to maintain an optimal aesthetic result and prevent returning to your original pre-treatment condition.
- If you have any concerns, please let us know. We are committed to you.

Aftercare Instructions
Eyelash Aftercare Instructions
First 24 Hours
- Avoid moisture, hot showers, saunas, swimming pools and steam facials.
- Avoid makeup around the eyes.
Maintenance
- We recommend a follow up appointment every 2-3 weeks.
Lash Cleaning
- Clean your lashes with lash cleanser at least every other day. You can do this with your fingers or a brush. If you wear eye make-up daily, they need to be cleansed daily.
- Allow your lashes to dry before brushing them into place with a spoolie. Brush as needed throughout the day.
General Care
- Avoid mascara.
- Do not use oil based products around your eyes, only use water based eye makeup remover or use a lash cleanser to remove makeup around the eye area.
- Never use an eyelash curler on eyelash extensions.
- Use a gentle lash cleanser and a brush to gently wash your eyes.
- Do not rub, pull or pick eyelash extensions.
- If there is a need for removal of extensions, please see a Vi licensed professional.

5 Days Before Treatment
- We recommend beginning Arnica pills or gel 5 days before your procedure.
- Avoid taking all of these products Advil, Vitamin E, Ginger, Ginko, Bilboa, Ginseng, Fish Oil, Aspirin and Garlic for five days prior to a treatment since this may increase the risk of bruising. You may shower and do most other regular daily activities.
Post Treatment
- Avoid strenuous exercise for 1-2 days after the procedure. This may raise your blood pressure and pulse causing more bruising and swelling.
- Avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time. Wear sun block to protect your skin. Sunlight may cause permanent discoloration after bruising.
- Do not apply make-up after the procedure for 12 to 24 hours.
- You may apply cold compresses or ice to the treatment sites to reduce swelling and bruising if instructed by your provider.
- Note that any bumps or marks from the extremely small needle sticks will go away within a few hours. If you do develop a bruise it will resolve like any other bruise. There is occasionally some mild pain, swelling, itching, or redness at the site of injection similar to most other injections. Redness may last for 1-2 days, rarely longer.

our story
Everyone has a story.
The one we tell ourselves. The ones we tell each other.
The ones we share, and the ones we protect.
Mine started on a weary Sunday by overhearing,

Wait, that’s it? If we love the people in front of us, so that they can love the people in front of them and then they can love the people in front of them…then isn’t that what changes the world
Beauty as a division of our internal and external selves never made sense to me. I wanted to disrupt that very concept. So I created a place where anyone can show up whole – no matter what that looks like.
That led me to Vi and Vi to me.
Vi is a place to choose you – however you are. So, you can go out and love yourself and the people right in front of you.
This is just one of my stories, we’ll save the rest for when we see you.
– Danielle Anderson,
Owner | Vi Beauty Lab
