All of the 5 star reviews are correct! I used Dr Cynthia Lawder for a full face of fillers and I love the result!! I just turned 70 and this was my first time doing fillers. I was a bit apprehensive but Dr. Lawder put me completely at ease and mapped out a plan for my face based on the areas of concern I had. My main objective was to look as natural as possible and I definitely do, just younger and more refreshed! I had her do my lips as with age they had gotten so thin. I was wary of the "duck lip" look but she assured me that she does only natural enhancements. My lips look so great and just like they did 25 years ago! The salon is beautiful, spotlessly clean and professional in every way. I just wish I had done this earlier! read more

I have had Botox many times but this MD is AMAZING! Cynthia has a wonderful bedside manor, great energy, professional yet she instantly makes you feel at home- comfortable and at ease. Definitely Not my experience with any MD or RN I have worked with before. I have often felt like I was rushed, bruised or not cared for in the past experiences. Cynthia listened to my desires and went over what we were going to achieve with her treatment. When she used her needle I barely felt a thing. No bruising.. Yay! Her chair was so soft and super comfy. It truly is the little things that make your experience a great one! I will be coming back Cynthia, and will be recommending you to those I love! Thank you- read more

My best friend had been going to Cynthia for years and swore by her, so I knew that was where I wanted to go for my first experience. But, being that this was my first time even setting foot inside of a med spa, I was really afraid of what to expect. I had all the horror stories I'd heard running through my head, but within seconds of meeting Cynthia I knew I was in incredible hands! On top of my lips, cheek bones, and Botox around the forehead, Cynthia gave me a new-found confidence! She took extra time to listen and be clear on what I was looking for and offered advice that would make my experience even better. She's highly professional, is great at what she does, but she is also so easy to talk to and makes you feel extremely cared for. And she won't let you go until the work is flawless! For a first timer, I'd say this experience couldn't have been any better. I can see why my best friend has remained a client for years! Thank you, Cynthia! You are amazing read more

I have been going to Thrive MD for about 7 months now. I can honestly say that I have never felt as good as I do today, thanks to Danielle. It's amazing how a little dysport and lip filler have given me a boost of confidence and a more youthful look. I'm all for whatever makes you happy, and let me tell you, this does!! I recently referred my daughter to Thrive MD. She has what some people would call a "gummy smile" I did some research on it, and learned that a few simple injections of Botox could help correct this. Thrive MD was definitely the place to go. who would have thought that this simple procedure would bring her so much joy and even more confidence. Thank you to Danielle, for your magical hands, and thank you to Dr.Lawder for having the most professional and amazing Boutique Aesthetic office in Petaluma. Truly the best! read more

I LOVE Dr. Lawder. In the past few years I have seen her numerous times for various procedures. She is always warm and welcoming, and makes you feel at ease. She thoroughly explains process and I have been more than please with the results. Thank you Dr. Lawder. I'm already looking forward to our next appointment. read more

WOW! Where has Dysport been my whole life (well at least the past ten years)? Referred by Natalie Damiano of 'No Shade MicroBlade' a number of times and I finally pulled the trigger. I was hesitant at first but after my very first appointment seeing Daniele Tarantino, RN I knew I was in EXCELLENT hands and the results were quickly evident. I went in with a budget which Daniele was more than happy to accommodate and even with a more minimal investment I could see a remarkable difference within weeks. I've since gone back and again, couldn't be happier with what I see. Daniele is incredibly professional, safe and skilled and the smoother, tighter forehead looking back at me in the mirror no longer makes me mutter an annoying "argh." Thank you to dope nurse Daniele and ThriveMD! #WomenOwnedBusiness read more

Dr. Lawder is professional, highly skilled, has an Emergency Medicine background, and always makes me feel so important.

Oh yah- she helps my wrinkles disappear and I could not be happier about that! I highly recommend Dr. Lawder, she is the best. read more

Great prices, nice people and the shots are the least painful I have experienced in all my years of getting botox!

I just had lip filler done by Dr. Cynthia Lawder at Thrive MD in Petaluma. My lips turned out great, I am so happy with the results. I have been getting lip filler for years and I have to say this is probably the best they have ever looked. They are so natural looking and perfectly compliment my face! Thank you Dr. Lawder! read more

Today was my second appointment at ThriveMD.. I am very impressed with the professionalism and comfortable atmosphere. Covid precautions were taken very seriously and communication with Dr Lawder was very easy. I have already referred my personal clients after my first visit and will feel very confident doing so after my second visit. read more

Dr. Lawder is incredibly talented and professional. She made me very comfortable in her chair and I was confident she would give me the refreshed look I hoped for, not an "overdone" look that I feared. I love my results, they are subtle and natural. read more

Dr. Lawder and her staff are amazing! I've been seeing her for many years and I highly recommend her! Right now, as I type this, she walked out of the room to turn the music to a song that I told her was my fav! She is so very thoughtful and so kind! This is how she is all the time! Another thing I love about Dr. Lawder is how meticulous she is about her treatments! She is one of a kind! read more

Over the years, I have gotten Botox at a number of different medspas, and none compare to my wonderful experience at Thrive-MD.  The atmosphere at Thrive-MD is so warm and inviting, it is an oasis from the crazy world outside. Dr. Lawder and Daniele are both incredibly talented when it comes to injections.  They take their time with each patient to listen carefully to what you are trying to achieve and provide guidance without being pushy.  They make you feel at home and at ease while making you look absolutely beautiful. In addition to getting Botox at Thrive-MD, I have now gone back to see Dr. Lawder for the Forma laser treatment and was blown away by the immediate results.  It was such a relaxing and enjoyable treatment and I left looking incredible.  After just one session, I noticed a dramatic difference in my skin; my pores were smaller, skin was tighter and I was generally glowing for days after the treatment. I cannot recommend Thrive-MD enough and will be returning for all of my needs in the future! read more

Cynthia is AMAZING! I have NEVER felt more comfortable and welcomed into a doctors office than with Cynthia. Her attention to detail and knowledge is a true art form. I was very skeptical about Botox and fillers at first, but Cynthia set my mind at ease and made my lines go away in the most beautiful natural way and I am absolutely thrilled with my results. Cynthia is my go-to-gal forever! read more

I am 48 years old and I was initially tentative to go in for a Botox treatment. I had a LOT of questions and concerns and let me tell you, Cynthia Lawder put me at ease instantly! She is incredibly skilled and competent and equally as importantly, she is kind, she listens, she is supportive of my needs and requests without shame or judgment. I think that for many women, doing anything for ourselves can bring about shame or fear of being judged and Dr. Lawder debunks those myths and supports kindness towards ourselves. Her strong medical background and her kind approach are what make me go back. I urge you to go to her...she is incredible! read more

I cannot speak highly enough of Cynthia and the care and services she provides. From our first appt it felt like I was with an old friend instead of a doctor. She ensures you're getting the right treatment, explains all available options, and is incredibly attentive during and after any procedure. She provides a clean and comfortable environment and just wants to make sure you're happy with you're experience and treatments. I absolutely love her read more

I've never had someone so genuinely listen to my needs and concerns and make me feel like they had my best interest at heart! She will give you her honest and educated opinion and then proceed to give you exactly what you want! I was nervous about getting my lips done after I had a bad experience 5 years ago at another place and I left there so HAPPY with my new full, voluminous lips that look VERY natural! She also did my Botox and did a phenomenal job! She's personal, caring and will make you feel like family before you Leave there! She's not only an amazing emergency medicine doctor but the most the most articulate and precise when It comes to cosmetic procedures! I highly recommend her for all your aesthetic needs! She will not disappoint!! You can thank me later! read more

I went to Cynthia for botox/lip filler and would 1000000% recommend Cynthia over and over again! My first filler experience with another appointment woman was odd and extremely uncomfortable. This was the COMPLETE opposite. I feel like I was just hanging out with a girlfriend that I've known for years. I could have stayed for hours! I am so thankful to have found her in my home town and I am obsessed with the results. She took the time to evaluate my face and talk to me about different options. She was kind, extremely clean, informative and really took the time to find out who I was and the look I was going for. I am looking forward to my next visit with her. Thank you so much Cynthia! read more

As a Doctor, she has a lot of knowledge in the medical field, which is very reassuring. I highly recommend Cynthia. read more

This was my first time getting any kind of procedure done, so I was a little nervous. Cynthia took the time to review everything with me to put me at ease. The environment was comfortable and fun. The results were fabulous and I'll definitely be back to see her again!! read more

From the moment I walked in the door of this adorable cozy office I felt like I was the only person on earth. Dr Lawder takes the time to get to know the REAL person before deciding together which treatments are best suited. I never ever felt pressured and I had every confidence that she understood each of my (many!) concerns. Her technical ability is superb and the work performed is the best Ive ever seen. Natural looking and EXACTLY what we had agreed upon. I love the look and I love Dr Lawder. Definitely will be returning and definitely will be referring friends and family!! read more
