Losing weight on a GLP-1 without a plan can cost you muscle and skin quality.

Dr. Persky's checklist covers what to track, how to eat, and how to train before you start, so the results hold up.

Facial plastic surgeons work with zero margin for error. There's no shirt or jacket to cover a mistake. That precision matters even more if you're losing weight on GLP-1 medications, because facial volume loss shows up fast and it shows up where everyone can see it.

If you're worried about your face changing shape during your weight loss journey, DM us and we'll get you scheduled with Dr. Persky to map out a plan.

Sofwave isn't a one-size-fits-all treatment, at least not in this office.

Dr. Persky has spent four decades studying the vectors and tissue planes that create real lift on a face, and he applies that to every Sofwave plan instead of running the same settings on everyone. That's the difference between paying for the device and paying for the person running it.

Want to see what a customized plan looks like for your face? We'll get you on the calendar.

Not ready for a facelift? You're not alone, and you're not out of options.

Sofwave uses micro-focused ultrasound energy to tighten skin from the inside out. No incisions, no downtime. It treats fine lines and wrinkles, and lifts the neck, jawline, and brows.

The session runs about an hour, and the energy level adjusts to your comfort. Most patients notice tighter, more lifted skin results building over the following months as your body produces new collagen.

If your skincare routine stopped moving the needle but you're not booking an OR, this is your next step.

Fraxel isn't one treatment. It's three, and Dr. Persky picks the right one for your skin.

Brown spots and uneven tone bothering you more than lines? That's Fraxel Dual territory. Fine lines and dull texture? Fraxel re:store.

Deeper wrinkles, scarring, crepey skin? That's re:pair.

The difference between "eh, I did a laser once" and results like this is knowing which Fraxel your face actually needs. That's not a machine decision. That's a doctor decision.

Male skincare, Tip #4: the upper eyelid.

Dr. Persky calls this the biggest bang for the buck for his male patients. Removing a little extra upper eyelid skin, the hooding that builds up over time, makes a subtle but real difference. Done right, it's barely noticeable and just makes you look more rested. Done wrong, it's obvious. So, choose someone who specializes in this on male patients specifically.

Male skincare, Tip #3. Dr. Persky says the basics matter: a cleanser, a serum, a moisturizer, and sunblock, all backed by real science. Add a hat and stay out of the sun when you can. If you've got brown spots that skincare alone won't budge, a laser treatment can target those spots along with fine lines and wrinkles.

Her daughter noticed before she did!

Sofwave uses ultrasound energy to heat the superficial layer to 2mm of skin, which prompts your body to build new collagen over the following weeks. No needles. No downtime.

Results build gradually, so what you see at week two is not what you see at week twelve.

DM us to book your consultation.

Platysma bands aren't just a female concern.

Dr. Persky says it's one of the top things his male patients ask about, those vertical bands that show up in the neck as we age. He treats it two ways: a small surgical incision that sews the bands back together, or a non surgical neuromodulator injection that relaxes the muscle. The non-surgical route lasts three to four months.

DM us if you want details on both options.

GLP-1 weight loss changes more than the scale. Volume loss in the face, neck, arms, and legs is common, and it shows up fast.

Dr. Persky's approach starts early. If you're planning to lose weight, treating proactively works better than waiting. For the face, that means biostimulators like Sculptra and diluted Radiesse. For the neck, he built an individualized combination treatment using fillers, PRP, hyaluronic acid, and a neuromodulator, plus skin tightening devices like Sofwave or Ultherapy. The same layered approach applies to the arms and thighs.

Every patient's plan looks different. Let’s figure out your plan!
