Aesthetic treatments in Ridgewood

Tirzepatide (Zepbound / Mounjaro)

Weekly dual-action (GLP-1 + GIP) injection averaging ~20% body weight loss in trials, the strongest results of any weight-loss medication, and the winner of the first head-to-head trial against semaglutide.

Semaglutide (Wegovy / Ozempic)

Weekly GLP-1 injection (the active drug in Wegovy and Ozempic) averaging ~15% body weight loss in clinical trials, the medication that started the medical weight-loss boom.

Laser Hair Removal

A laser treatment that targets hair follicles to permanently reduce unwanted hair on the face, body, and bikini area over a series of sessions.

Microneedling

A minimally invasive treatment that uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering collagen production to improve texture, scars, pores, and fine lines.

Botox

A non-surgical injectable treatment that temporarily relaxes specific facial muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles like frown lines, forehead lines, and crow's feet.

HydraFacial

A multi-step facial that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts impurities, and infuses the skin with hydrating serums, all using a patented spiral suction wand in about 30 minutes.

Lip Filler

Hyaluronic acid injections that add subtle volume, definition, or hydration to the lips, from a soft natural enhancement to a more sculpted, defined shape.

Sculptra

A collagen-stimulating injectable that gradually restores facial volume over months, delivering subtle, natural-looking results that can last 2+ years.

Masseter Botox

Botox injected into the jaw muscles to slim a square jawline, relieve teeth grinding, and ease TMJ-related tension. One treatment, cosmetic and functional benefits.

Chemical Peel

A controlled chemical exfoliation that removes damaged outer skin layers, revealing brighter, smoother, more even skin and improving fine lines, sun damage, acne, and hyperpigmentation.

Morpheus8

A radiofrequency microneedling treatment that remodels deep skin layers to tighten, smooth texture, and reduce wrinkles, acne scars, and sagging.

Kybella

An FDA-approved injectable that permanently destroys fat cells under the chin to reduce a double chin without surgery.

IV Therapy

Intravenous infusions of vitamins, minerals, hydration, glutathione, and specialty compounds like NAD+ delivered directly into the bloodstream for energy, recovery, immune support, and anti-aging.

CoolSculpting

A non-surgical fat-reduction treatment that freezes and permanently eliminates stubborn fat cells in areas like the abdomen, flanks, and chin.

Dermal Fillers

Injectable gels (usually hyaluronic acid) that restore lost volume and definition to the cheeks, jawline, smile lines, and under-eye area for a refreshed, lifted look.

Emsculpt NEO

A non-invasive treatment that builds muscle and burns fat at the same time using high-intensity electromagnetic energy combined with radiofrequency heating.

PRP Microneedling (Vampire Facial)

A two-step treatment combining microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) drawn from your own blood, supercharging collagen production to improve acne scars, fine lines, texture, and tone.

Cellulite Treatment

Energy-based and injectable treatments that smooth cellulite dimpling by remodeling the fibrous bands and skin structure that cause it. Realistic improvement, not airbrushing.

Hair Restoration

Non-surgical hair loss treatments combining PRP injections, prescription medications, microneedling, and red light therapy to slow hair loss and stimulate measurable regrowth in early-to-moderate pattern hair loss.

Dysport

A fast-acting botulinum toxin injectable that smooths frown lines and forehead wrinkles. Botox's biggest competitor, preferred by many for larger areas.

Skin Tightening

Non-surgical ultrasound and energy treatments like Ultherapy and Sofwave that lift and firm sagging skin on the face, neck, and brow by stimulating deep collagen.

Lip Flip

A few units of Botox along the upper lip line that relax the muscle and roll the lip subtly outward. Fuller-looking lips with no filler.

PDO Thread Lift

A minimally-invasive lift treatment that uses dissolvable threads to instantly lift sagging skin and stimulate collagen for natural-looking results lasting 12–18 months.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

A laser treatment that removes or heats damaged skin layers to smooth wrinkles, fade sun damage and scars, and reveal fresher, more even-toned skin.

Medical Weight Loss (GLP-1)

Physician-supervised weight loss programs using FDA-approved GLP-1 injections (semaglutide, tirzepatide) and compounded alternatives to deliver an average of 15–20% body weight reduction over 12 months.

BBL Photofacial

An intense pulsed light treatment that targets sun damage, redness, brown spots, and uneven tone to reveal clearer, more even-toned skin with minimal downtime.

Cheek Filler

Structural hyaluronic acid filler that restores or enhances cheekbone projection, lifting the midface, sharpening light reflection, and indirectly softening under-eye hollows and nasolabial folds.

Jawline Filler

Structural filler along the jawline and chin that sharpens definition, balances profiles, and strengthens weak chins, the non-surgical answer to a soft lower face.

Ultherapy

The gold-standard focused ultrasound treatment that lifts and tightens skin on the face, neck, and brow by rebuilding collagen at the foundational layer. No needles, no downtime.

Dermaplaning

A gentle exfoliation treatment using a sterile surgical blade to remove dead skin cells and peach fuzz. Instantly smoother, brighter skin and flawless makeup application.

Red Light Therapy

Low-level red and near-infrared light that energizes cellular repair, used for skin rejuvenation, collagen support, inflammation, and recovery, with zero downtime or discomfort.

Microblading & Brow PMU

Semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing that builds natural-looking eyebrows (hair-stroke microblading, soft powder brows, or machine nano strokes) lasting 1–2 years.

Spider Vein Treatment

Sclerotherapy injections and vascular lasers that collapse unwanted spider veins on the legs and face, the two proven methods for clearing visible vessels.

Microdermabrasion

A mechanical exfoliation that buffs away the dead outer layer of skin with a diamond tip or fine crystals, leaving skin smoother and brighter the same day, with no downtime and results that build over a series.

Xeomin

A neuromodulator in the same class as Botox, purified to contain only the active toxin with no accessory proteins, which is why it is nicknamed the naked Botox. Same uses, similar dosing and duration, and the usual choice for people who have developed resistance to other brands.

Jeuveau

A neuromodulator approved specifically for cosmetic use and marketed as the modern alternative to Botox, with comparable results and dosing and often a lower price. Same class, same uses, same three to four month interval.

Radiesse

A calcium-based filler that provides immediate structure and then stimulates your own collagen as it dissolves, used for the jawline, chin, cheeks, and the backs of the hands, and in diluted form for crepey skin on the body. Firmer than hyaluronic acid fillers and not reversible.

Skinvive

The first injectable approved in the US to improve skin quality rather than add volume. Micro-droplets of hyaluronic acid placed across the cheeks hydrate the skin from within for about six months, improving smoothness and glow without changing the shape of the face.

Chin Filler

Filler placed on the chin to project a recessed chin, lengthen a short one, or balance a profile, in one fifteen-minute treatment lasting a year or more. One of the most face-changing filler treatments for the amount used, and the non-surgical alternative to a chin implant.

Trap Botox

Botox injected into the trapezius muscles on either side of the neck, which relaxes chronic shoulder tension and, over a few months, slims a thick or rounded shoulder line. One treatment addresses both the tension and the look.

Lymphatic Drainage Massage

A gentle, rhythmic massage that moves fluid through the lymphatic system to reduce swelling. Its clearest use is after liposuction, a tummy tuck, or a BBL, where it speeds recovery and smooths the result; it is also booked for puffiness and as a wellness treatment.

Vitamin Injections

Quick intramuscular shots of vitamin B12, lipotropic compounds, or vitamin blends, sold at med spas for energy, metabolism, and weight loss support. B12 helps people who are actually low in it; the rest is modest, and the shots are a supplement to a weight program, not a program.

Vaginal Rejuvenation

Non-surgical treatments for laxity, dryness, and mild urinary leakage after childbirth or menopause, using laser or radio-frequency energy inside the vaginal canal or an electromagnetic chair that contracts the pelvic floor. Evidence is stronger for the pelvic floor chair than for the energy devices, and a clinic should say so.

Peptide Therapy

Prescription injectable peptides, usually growth-hormone-releasing peptides like sermorelin, sold by med spas and wellness clinics for energy, recovery, body composition and sleep. Some are legal, prescribable drugs; many of the most-marketed ones are not, and the difference is the whole decision.

Testosterone Replacement Therapy

Also called trt

Prescription testosterone (injections, gels, or pellets) for men with symptoms and confirmed low testosterone on two morning blood tests. Med spas and men's health clinics run monitored programs; the labs, the diagnosis and the follow-up are what separate medicine from a subscription.

Hormone Replacement Therapy

Also called hrt

Prescription estrogen, progesterone and sometimes testosterone for perimenopause and menopause symptoms, offered at med spas as FDA-approved patches and gels or as compounded "bioidentical" creams and pellets. The FDA lifted its main warnings in 2025 and 2026; the compounded versions are the part to question.

RF Microneedling

Microneedling that delivers radiofrequency heat through the needle tips into the dermis, so one treatment resurfaces texture and acne scars while tightening mild laxity. Morpheus8 is the best-known brand; Vivace, Potenza, Secret RF, Virtue RF, Genius and Sylfirm X are the same device class.

Nose Filler

Also called liquid rhinoplasty

Hyaluronic acid filler placed along the bridge or tip to smooth a hump, lift a drooping tip or straighten a mild asymmetry in fifteen minutes, lasting 9 to 18 months. It is an off-label use the FDA recommends against because the nose is the highest-risk site on the face for filler entering an artery, so the injector matters more here than for any other filler.

Facials

Also called med spa facials

A professional skin treatment, cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, a mask or serum and often a device step, done by a licensed esthetician in a medical setting with access to stronger actives and a clinician down the hall. The most booked service on any med spa menu and the one with the most variation in what you actually get.

Polynucleotides

Also called salmon dna skin booster

A skin booster made from purified DNA fragments, usually from salmon, injected in tiny droplets under the skin of the face, under-eyes or neck to improve texture, elasticity and fine lines over a course of two to four sessions. Widely used in Korea and Europe; no injectable version is FDA-approved in the United States, and the evidence, while promising, is small.
