Let’s Rethink Anti-AgingThoughtful Aging
Welcome toBridgeport Laser & Wellness Center!
Your journey to thoughtful and empowering aging starts here.
Alina Wilson is quite literally writing the book on “Thoughtful Aging.” In doing so, she is also re-writing the notion of “Anti-Aging.
Thoughtful Aging at Bridgeport Laser & Wellness Center
This phrase is a movement! Our medspa is shifting the paradigm to Thoughtful Aging because, frankly, “Anti-Aging” is unattainable at its core. We cannot stop the clock. But our talented and dedicated team in Tualatin, Oregon, can help women and men alike make the most informed and desired decisions about their skincare and aesthetics—based on what they actually want, not on what the glossy magazines or latest buzzy influencers may tell them that they need.
As a concept, anti-aging is simply setting our valued patients and friends up for failure. It’s defeatist. We are all about success here. The proof is truly in the results, which speak volumes. It’s also in how much healthier patients feel about their skin and themselves – that’s true wellness. We keep what you’ve got — your one-of-a-kind skin — at its very best and healthiest. This makes our patients feel good. It’s truly empowering.
In consultation with our experts, patients choose from a wide array of services that they want to enhance and support their skin’s appearance and function. They don’t feel pressured to undergo trending procedures. With confidence in their decision-making, these many low-risk, high-reward procedures allow others to see an external image that ultimately aligns so well with our patients’ internal exuberance, confidence, personality, and vigor. These wellness-oriented solutions for the face, body, and more include:
- Injectable soft tissue or dermal fillers – The full line-up of Juvéderm® fillers, as well as long-lasting “collagen boosters” (like Sculptra®), maybe in your future to [ML1] soften lines, augment lips, and otherwise lift sunken or depressed areas. We are also thrilled to offer Skinvive™, the latest microdroplet and “skin booster” twist on the traditional filler from the Juvéderm® family.
- Botox® Cosmetic – Soften expression lines with this famous injectable filler. When in our qualified providers’ hands, we make your frown lines and crow’s feet disappear without making your face look frozen.
- Revolutionary fat reduction for face and body – Erase a stubborn double chin with injectable Kybella®. Or, finally, diminish those exercise- and diet-resistant fat pockets with Emsculpt® and Emsculpt Neo®. We can even destroy fat cells safely while also building muscle!
- Facial rejuvenation services—There are so many options to choose from, all tailored to your needs, preferences, and goals. Consider the incredible versatility of chemical peels, the healing power of microneedling alone or with Radiofrequency energy (Potenza™), and the skin-quenching Hydrafacial®.
- Lasers galore—We live up to the “laser” in our name with an array of light-based systems for the face and/or body. These systems present a nonsurgical, precise, and efficient way to remove everything from brown spots and acne scars to visible veins and unwanted hair.
- Beyond skin deep – Our wellness services are truly transformative. They include treatments for hair loss, natural hormone therapy, medically-managed weight loss, and so much more!

A Patient View on Thoughtful Aging vs Anti-Aging
Do things that help the process in your journey and make you feel good. Love the way you look!
I think you have to do things that maybe help the process in your journey and make you feel good and bring happiness to you and if that means getting a little Botox or getting a microderm you know which is something that you know I’ll walk away and look in the mirror and think oh I love the way I look but then it’s also a balance of being like it’s okay I’ve made it to 53 and I’m healthy and I think that’s where the thoughtful aging comes in versus the anti-aging
Drew Barrymore Talks on Emsculpt
I’m 44 I have two kids and I work constantly. I’m traveling and it’s really hard to have consistency in your life. My body isn’t the same after having two kids and even just on a functional level, if I would try to work out, I kept injuring myself, and I wasn’t working from this strong foundation of core or where I should have been and I was getting really discouraged. I wanted to change my life and do something really positive so that I could go into my closet and get dressed feeling good, so that I could eat pasta here and there, so I could drink wine here and there, and just find that elusive balance called 80/20. I’ve certainly known 80/20 in the opposite direction; you realize that being healthy and strong is really important. I wanted to condition my body differently so I could exercise regularly without injury, and then I did a bunch of recon with a lot of women, a lot of who you know some of you don’t, some who are really amazing actresses or athletes, and I was like, I found out all the cool girls were already doing it, and it made me feel really safe about the process. I got really excited as opposed to curious and they’re all doing it. So I was like, well then I want to do it as I had been doing a lot of core work. So I did Emsculpt in tendem, and it completely changed my foundation; it just really changed my life, and I get to go work out with my girlfriends and do dance cardio. I feel better when I’m picking up my kids. I’m just exercising smarter because I’m stronger. I’m not really a champion or into anything invasive and I’m not into aesthetics. I care about athletics and being capable and a strong woman, and I don’t know what exactly that looks like because it’s totally different for every single woman. But for me and my personal life I know the line and I know when I’m feeling good. I know what I’m looking better for me, well I definitely see lines in my stomach where I never have which is a total anomaly for me. I’m just getting to live the life I want to, I look better, I feel better, but I’m working out consistently without landing in a physical therapists office because I’ve overdone it or thrown my back out my car was like a fish tank after kids when women have kids nobody talks about how broken the body is and you’re trying to get back to where you were but you’ll never be in the same clade. So I think people probably do this for a multitude of reasons. I have friends who do Ironman, who do it, me as a mother who couldn’t put her body back together the right way. That was why I did it, I just wanted health and wellness in my life. Some people do it for posture, some people do it for conditioning, some people are hardcore athletes, and want to get even stronger and get that extra boost. All the cool girls are doing it for sure.
A Patient View on Thoughtful Aging
I just think the whole phrase thoughtful aging is so beautiful; it’s such a healthier approach but to keep your young youthful skin the best you can. I say this as I think it’s really important, and it makes sense to me, and it makes me feel good. Where again, anti-aging, this makes me feel defeated. Bridgeport laser and wellness is by far the best place to go for thoughtful aging
