Two specialties
Most patients come for one of these two reasons. Each has its own page with the full plan, timeline and what results to expect.

A needle-based approach to skin tone, fine lines and puffiness that treats the face and the whole body together.

Most people feel a light tap or nothing at all. The needles are about as thin as a hair. You may feel warmth, tingling or a dull heaviness around a point, which usually fades into deep relaxation.
Recent problems often improve in 3–6 visits. Pain or stress that has lasted months usually takes 6–10. You get a specific estimate at your first visit.
We are out-of-network. You pay at the visit and we give you a superbill to submit. Many PPO plans reimburse part of the cost, and HSA and FSA cards are accepted.
25 W 45th St, Suite 507, between Fifth and Sixth Avenues: one block from Bryant Park and a six-minute walk from Grand Central.
