Recognition,
earned in practice.
Reviv Med Spa & Laser Treatment in Millbrae, California has operated under physician medical direction since 2008. The practice is an Allergan Platinum Plus partner (2023); its founder, Gayle Misle, MD, is an anesthesiologist and a named inventor on four granted U.S. patents; its clinical team is long-tenured; and the REVIV MED SPA name and dragonfly mark are registered with the USPTO. This page lays out each credential and the public record behind it.
Allergan
Platinum Plus Partner, 2023.
Allergan Aesthetics — manufacturer of Botox, Juvederm, SkinMedica, and the broader Allē rewards platform — designates Platinum Plus status to its highest-volume, best-trained partner accounts. Reviv has held this designation since 2023.
The designation matters less for what it says about volume and more for what it says about training: Platinum Plus accounts are first in line for new product training, technique workshops, and longitudinal clinical education on the Allergan portfolio. Our injectors complete continuing-education requirements that exceed typical medspa standards, and we audit our own technique against published Allergan injection protocols.
Practical implication for patients: when Allergan releases a new product or refines an injection technique, our team is among the first to learn it directly from the manufacturer.
Four granted U.S. patents,
from the procedural side.
Gayle Misle, MD, Founder and Medical Director of Reviv Med Spa & Laser Treatment, is a named inventor on four granted U.S. utility patents. Three arise from anesthesiology and procedural medicine, an epidural needle assembly and sterile support for surgical instruments; the fourth is a cannula and needle assembly for one-step cannula injection, the design sold as InjectMate. All four are assigned to Dr. Misle rather than to the practice.
Cannula and needle assembly
Dr. Misle is the named inventor. The needle first opens the skin, a blunt cannula is then passed through the needle in one step, and a coupling holds the needle assembly in place. This is the design sold as InjectMate by Advanced Medical Device, LLC, Dr. Misle's device company. US 10,028,768 B2 patent record.
Epidural needle assembly
Dr. Misle is a named inventor with Ryan C. Patterson and Trent J. Perry. The patent expired February 25, 2024 after the maintenance fee was not paid; an international family was filed in Europe, China, Japan, Korea, Brazil, Canada and Mexico. US 10,569,027 B2 patent record.
Sterile stand for supporting surgical instruments
Dr. Misle is a named inventor with Ryan C. Patterson and Trent J. Perry. The stand supports needles, cannulas, syringes and an injection needle assembly in a sterile field. US 10,507,072 B1 patent record.
Sterile stand for supporting surgical instruments (continuation-in-part)
This continuation-in-part names Dr. Misle and Trent J. Perry as inventors, with a corresponding international application in Europe, Japan and Korea. US 10,485,625 B1 patent record.
Patent status was verified September 1, 2026 through USPTO and Google Patents records, and the cannula and needle assembly record on October 30, 2026. Reviv's treatments are not patented and are not covered by these patents; the point of listing them is the medical background behind the practice's medical direction.
The dragonfly mark,
on the Principal Register.
REVIV MED SPA® is a U.S. registered design mark for services, owned by Reviv Medical Spa, Inc. The registered design combines the stylized words REVIV MED SPA with a dragonfly forming the letter “I” — the same dragonfly you see through this site and in the Millbrae studio. It is registered on the Principal Register as U.S. Reg. No. 4,737,563 in International Class 044.
The application was filed February 20, 2014 and registered May 19, 2015; its Section 8 and 15 filings were accepted in 2020. As verified September 1, 2026, the USPTO status of the registered design mark was “LIVE — the registration has been renewed,” with a status date of August 10, 2024.
What recognition
looks like for us.
Allergan Platinum Plus Partner, 2023

4.6 stars across 151 Google reviews
Public reviews on the Reviv Google Business Profile reflect a consistent pattern: unhurried consultations, conservative dosing, transparent pricing. We treat the review record as a more honest signal than any press feature would be.
Continuous Bay Area presence since 2008
Reviv has operated under medical direction in Millbrae for over fifteen years. The studio serves patients across the San Francisco Peninsula — Burlingame, San Mateo, Hillsborough, Palo Alto, San Carlos, Menlo Park, Redwood City, and the broader Silicon Valley corridor.
A team that stays
Practice Manager Megan Sosnick has been with Reviv for over twelve years. The full clinical team has long-tenure continuity that's rare in the medspa industry. Staff retention shows up in patient experience — you see the same providers, year over year.
