Our Story.
ThriveMD is a boutique aesthetic clinic located in beautiful Sonoma County, California. Our mission is to empower patients to embrace their authentic beauty and tap into their confidence. We use the most advanced injectables and skincare techniques to improve facial features. In doing so, we help patients access not only their physical confidence, but also their holistic well-being. Frowns and wrinkles can signal negative emotions, often intensifying feelings of depression, worry, and sadness. When these facial features are improved, patients feel better about themselves and are more positively perceived by others. Here at ThriveMD we are passionate about helping women and men increase confidence and happiness at home and at work, hence presenting their best selves to the world.
Owned and operated by Dr. Cynthia Lawder, she is a board certified physician with over 20 years of experience in both primary care and emergency medicine. She earned her medical degree in New York City and completed her residency at UC Davis, where she received extensive training in dermatology and procedures. With the advancement of non-surgical facial aesthetics, she has incorporated Botox and Fillers into her practice, combining the art and science of medicine. She frequently attends courses by renowned experts to stay current on the latest developments in facial rejuvenation. Dr. Lawder is passionate about stewarding positivity in women and men by helping them present their best selves to the world.
“In our youth obsessed culture, women are under tremendous pressure to stay competitive in the work place, be energetic, look refreshed and feel youthful, whatever their role in life. How we present ourselves to the world depends in part on how we feel which, in turn, is often affected by how we look. My job is to help both women and men feel good about how they look so they can present their best selves to the outside world. My hope is to empower everyone who walks through my office doors.“
