One device rarely addresses every layer of skin aging – which is exactly why using combination treatments is the more thoughtful approach. This is how we combine different lasers with RF microneedling!

Aurera, a thulium laser, works at the superficial skin layer. Refining pores, tone, and pigment with minimal downtime. CoolPeel on the other hand is a fractional CO2 laser treatment reaching slightly deeper to improve lines and texture while still keeping recovery short.

Virtue RF microneedling goes further still, combining, mechanical needling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen remodeling in the deeper dermis – the layer responsible for firmness and tightening overtime.

When these treatments are combined they address multiple skin layers in a single session, leading to a more rejuvenated appearance overall. It makes a meaningful difference in end result and how the skin ages over time.

The right combination depends on your skin, your goals, and how much downtime you’re working with. Contact our office to schedule a consultation appointment!

One week post-op photos demonstrates an evident change and very little downtime.

This patient underwent a neck lift under local anesthesia: no sedation, minimal downtime, and already visible refinement in skin laxity, neck bands, and jawline definition. As you can see there is hardly any bruising or swelling.

Neck lift surgery addresses what lies beneath the skin’s surface in addition to skin. We tighten the platysma muscle and remove unwanted fat. This surgical correction results in a more youthful appearance to the neck by targeting multiple tissue layers.

At one week, the results already reflect what’s possible. For those curious about candidacy, please contact a member of our team to schedule a consultation.

Not every augmentation should look - or feel - the same.

Fat transferred to the breast offers a natural alternative to implants, using your own fat – harvested, refined, and transferred – to add volume with no foreign material, and no implant related concerns. The results are softer, subtler, and entirely your own.

The long-standing challenge has been viability – how much of the transferred fat survives long-term. That changes with Viality, an advanced system that optimizes that cells survival and allows us to achieve a higher, more consistent rate of viability than traditional fat transfer methods. More predictable outcomes, better volume retention, and a clearer picture of your results from the very beginning.

Schedule a consultation with us where we can walk you through both fat transfer and breast implants, so you can understand which approach best suits your anatomy and your goals.

A photograph captures a moment. 3D imaging captures the truth.

We now use advanced 3D imaging at every appointment - both as a documentation tool, and as a consultation experience, unlike anything static image can offer. Before and after a procedure, it gives us a level of precision and objectivity that photography alone simply cannot replace. The nuance of volume, contour, and symmetry becomes fully visible in a way that changes how we evaluate outcomes.

But we’re it becomes truly transformative is in the planning process. We can simulate results across a range of procedures – from filler and fat transfer to breast augmentation – allowing patients to visualize potential outcomes before making any decision. It removes the guess work and replaces uncertainty with clarity. And for many of our patients, it is the moment a conversation becomes a commitment they feel genuinely confident in.

It’s a more sophisticated standard of care, and is now woven into every appointment we conduct. We invite you to experience it for yourself! Book a consultation with our office and see what’s possible before you decide anything at all.

June kept us plenty busy, and for good reason! We now have something new that we’ve been very excited to share.

Meet Junera. A minimally invasive treatment that fills a very real gap we’ve long seen in our practice – the space between non-invasive procedures like Sofwave and a surgical facelift. For patients who have more skin laxity than non-invasive treatments can reliably address, but who aren’t quite ready for surgery, there has historically been no ideal answer. Junera changes that.

Performed under local anesthesia in a single treatment session, Junera delivers, controlled energy beneath the skin to stimulate meaningful tightening of the face and neck, with results that continue to improve overtime. What makes it particularly exciting is its versatility. It allows us to effectively treat areas such as the crow’s feet, lower lids and hands. It even extends to body applications including tightening the skin of the arms and abdomen.

In this video, we walk you through how Junera fits into our practice and which patients are the ideal candidates.

If you’re not ready for a facelift but feel like you’re not invasive options haven’t quite gotten you there, Junera can be an excellent fit. Please contact our office to schedule a consultation!

One of our most requested procedures - and once you see why, it’s easy to understand.

A limited incision brachiaplasty combined with laser liposuction, addresses excess skin and stubborn fat in the upper arm with precision, through a significantly smaller incision than a traditional arm lift. The result is meaningful tightening and rejuvenation with minimal downtime and results that begin to reveal themselves within days.

No lengthy recovery. No compromise on outcome.

Something new has arrived at our White Plains office - and it comes with a bit of a backstory!

Dr. Rothaus was among the first to publish clinical research on Physiq, the latest advancement in non-invasive body contouring. What he momentarily forgot to mention - until Courtney kindly reminded him 😆 - is that she was right there with him from the beginning, contributing to the research as a student before joining our team full time. A good reminder that great work is rarely done alone 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️

Physiq uses a combination technology to simultaneously deliver deep tissue heating and electrical muscle stimulation. The result is targeted fat reduction and muscle toning without surgery or downtime. It’s precise, comfortable, and designed for patients who want meaningful body contouring with none of the recovery.

Now available at our White Plains location, Physiq is an ideal complement to surgical results or a powerful starting point on its own.

If you’ve been considering body contouring and want guidance from a team that has quite literally written the research, we’d love to have that conversation. Please contact our office to schedule a consultation.

There has been a lot of talk lately about whether SMAS facelifts truly stand the test of time. We’d like to let our results answer that.

Three years after surgery, this patient has not had a single touch up or revision. What you’re seeing is the lasting result- settled, natural, and holding exactly as intended.

A SMAS facelift, performed with precision and a deep understanding of facial anatomy, does not simply lift. It repositions the structural foundation of the face in a way that ages gracefully alongside the patient.

When chosen for the right candidate and executed with the appropriate level of anatomical expertise, a SMAS facelift remains one of the most reliable, time-tested approaches to facial rejuvenation available.

These results are not the exception. For our patients, they are the expectation.

For more information on SMAS vs. deep place facelifts please read our most recent substack article (link in bio).

We pride ourselves on being able to offer a wide variety of procedures to meet all the needs of our patients. This requires updating and researching different technology as new devices become available.

Every practice knows the risk of the “Million Dollar Closet” - devices purchased on hype that ultimately sit unused. This is how you can avoid that, and what we look for when bringing in something new.
