The CONTOR Studio Story

CONTŌR was born out of the need for a new kind of skincare experience
After years of performing cosmetic injectables, we grew frustrated with the industry’s focus on short-term results that often sacrifice long-term outcomes. We felt pressured to follow traditional industry standards that lead to people looking the same in the long run. At most modern med spas, treatment options can be overwhelming and natural results are overpromised but underdelivered. Don’t we all know that classic “overdone” look?
As young professionals we craved a brand made specifically for us; specializing in minimal downtime enhancements that look good today and even better long term. We aspired for truly individualized regimens that enhance our best features rather than making us look like someone else. That is where CONTŌR comes in. Our unique approach addresses the aging process above and below the skin simultaneously, helping you optimize the way you look, feel, and perform.
