  • Neck Lift | New Look New Life

    The skin on your neck ages at the same rate as the skin on your face, and unlike facial skin, it is usually neglected. Neck laxity is common among women and men and often contributes to diminished self-confidence. A neck lift (lower rhytidectomy) is a surgical procedure that tightens tissues in the lower face and neck to eliminate sagging skin, vertical banding, excess submental fat (double chin), and wrinkles in the neck. The surgical experts at New Look New Life have years of experience restoring youthful and natural-looking neck contours and look forward to assisting you in achieving your desired results. NECK LIFT > Our Services > Face Surgeries > FACE SURGERIES NECK LIFT IN NEW YORK CITY The skin on your neck ages at the same rate as the skin on your face, and unlike facial skin, it is usually neglected. Neck laxity is common among women and men and often contributes to diminished self-confidence. A neck lift (lower rhytidectomy) is a surgical procedure that tightens tissues in the lower face and neck to eliminate sagging skin, vertical banding, excess submental fat (double chin), and wrinkles in the neck.

Get A Quote Frequently asked questions Face Surgeries - Neck Lift Why should I choose New Look New Life for a Neck Lift? New Look New Life is dedicated to providing safe, beautiful, and natural-looking results through customized cosmetic procedures. Dr. Kim is highly experienced in neck rejuvenation, focusing on restoring a smooth, youthful profile while maintaining facial harmony. From your initial consultation through your post-op care, you will have direct access to your surgeon, ensuring a personalized and supportive experience. Am I a Candidate for Neck Lift Surgery? Ideal candidates are individuals in good overall health who are concerned with signs of aging in the lower face and neck, such as: Sagging or loose "turkey neck" skin. Excess fat under the chin (double chin). Visible muscle banding in the neck. A loss of jawline definition. Candidates should be non-smokers and have realistic expectations for their surgical outcome. What Are the Benefits of a Neck Lift? A neck lift (lower rhytidectomy) is designed to: Eliminate excess, sagging skin for a smoother neck contour. Remove stubborn fat deposits in the submental area. Tighten underlying neck muscles to reduce vertical banding. Create a sharp, well-defined jawline. Where Are My Neck Lift Incisions Made? Dr. Kim places incisions in discreet, well-hidden locations, typically around the earlobe and behind the ear, extending into the hairline. In some cases, a small incision is also made under the chin. This allows Dr. Kim to tighten the muscles and remove excess skin with minimal visible evidence of surgery. Should I Combine My Neck Lift With Other Procedures? Yes. A neck lift is frequently combined with a facelift to ensure a seamless, youthful transition between the face and neck. Other common pairings include chin liposuction to further refine the jawline or blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) for a full facial rejuvenation. What Will My Neck Lift Recovery Be Like? A neck lift is an outpatient procedure. Most patients return to work and normal daily routines within 7 to 10 days. You should rest with your head elevated for several days to minimize swelling. While light activity is encouraged to promote circulation, strenuous exercise should be avoided for at least two weeks. Dr. Kim provides all patients with his cell phone number so he can be reached at any time during recovery. Is Neck Lift Surgery Painful? The surgery is performed under anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Post-operative tightness, bruising, and tenderness are normal but can be effectively managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication. Will My Neck Lift Leave Scars? While all surgical incisions result in some scarring, Dr. Kim uses meticulous techniques to place incisions in natural folds and hair-bearing areas. These scars are typically not readily visible and will fade significantly over time. What Does a Neck Lift Cost in New York? Total costs vary based on the complexity of the procedure and whether it is combined with other surgeries. At New Look New Life, you will receive an accurate, all-inclusive estimate during your consultation. We offer financing options through CareCredit® and Cherry to help make your procedure more affordable. How should I prepare for neck lift surgery? Patients must stop smoking and avoid blood-thinning medications (like aspirin or ibuprofen) for 10–14 days before and after surgery. You must also arrange for a responsible adult to drive you home and stay with you for the first 24 hours following the procedure.

  • Profractonal Resurfacing | New Look New Life

    Discover expert Profractonal resurfacing in New York City. Explore FAQs, see before & after images. Book your Profractonal treatment today! PROFRACTIONAL RESURFACING SKIN RESURFACING > Our Services > Lasers > PROFRACTIONAL RESURFACING IN NYC SKIN RESURFACING IN NEW YORK CITY Loss of collagen on the face, neck, and hands is a very difficult consequence of aging. You know that you are the same youthful person, but the wrinkles and fine lines showing up become frustrating. You need a solution that stimulates collagen growth once again. Collagen can also rejuvenate other skin concerns such as acne scarring and enlarged pores that leave many people feeling self-conscious. Frequently asked questions Lasers - ProFractional What is ProFractional™? ProFractional™ is an advanced ablative laser resurfacing treatment designed to target stubborn skin concerns that you may have lived with for years. The ProFractional™ laser is uniquely effective because it only treats a fraction of your skin’s surface at a time. By creating thousands of microscopic treatment zones, it kick-starts your body’s natural healing process and massive collagen production without damaging the surrounding tissue. This results in powerful rejuvenation with significantly shorter healing times than traditional full-surface lasers. What skin concerns can ProFractional™ treat? Because it stimulates deep collagen growth, ProFractional™ is effective for a wide range of skin issues on the face, neck, and hands, including: Deep wrinkles and fine lines Severe acne scarring and surgical scars Loose skin (laxity) Enlarged pores Sun damage and pigmentation Overall rough or uneven skin texture Why choose ProFractional™ at New Look New Life? At New Look New Life, Dr. Claudia Kim only offers the most effective, state-of-the-art treatments to her patients. ProFractional™ is a premier non-surgical option for those who want to address "unfixable" skin concerns. It provides a noticeable tightening effect and a refreshed, youthful appearance that many other lasers simply cannot achieve. How is the ProFractional™ procedure performed? Dr. Claudia Kim will personalize the ProFractional™ settings to best address your specific skin goals. After your skin is thoroughly cleansed and your eyes are protected with safety goggles, a topical numbing cream is applied to ensure you remain completely comfortable. The ProFractional™ handpiece is then passed over the target area, delivering precise laser energy. The entire procedure typically lasts between 15 to 30 minutes. What is the recovery time for ProFractional™? ProFractional™ offers a much faster recovery than traditional resurfacing. While your skin may appear red (similar to a sunburn) for a few days, most patients are able to return to work and their normal routines very quickly. Dr. Claudia Kim will provide you with a customized post-care regimen to ensure your skin heals beautifully and your results are optimized. Can I combine ProFractional™ with other treatments for better results? Absolutely! This is known as "combination therapy," and it is one of the best ways to achieve a total transformation. Dr. Claudia Kim frequently pairs ProFractional™ with Forever Young BBL™ to treat both deep texture and surface pigmentation at once. It also works perfectly alongside Micro-Laser Peel for a "Tunable Resurfacing" effect that leaves the skin incredibly smooth. Is ProFractional™ a good alternative to surgery? While it cannot replace a surgical Facelift for patients with significant skin sagging, it is an excellent alternative for those who want to improve skin quality, thickness, and minor laxity without the downtime of surgery. It is also a favorite for patients who have already had surgery and want to maintain their results and keep their skin glowing. Do you offer financing for laser resurfacing? Yes. We believe that everyone should have access to the skin they’ve always dreamed of. We offer flexible medical financing options through CareCredit®, Alphaeon Credit, Cherry, and PatientFi. You can visit our Pricing page to learn more about how to fit this treatment into your monthly budget. How do I schedule my private consultation? Taking the first step is simple and 100% confidential. You can Book Now directly through our website, or call our New York concierge team at (212)-830-6830 to secure your private, one-on-one consultation with Dr. Claudia Kim at either our Manhattan or Westchester locations.

  • Male Body Lift | New Look New Life

    Losing a large amount of weight should be an exciting and positive experience, but it doesn’t always feel that way if you’re stuck with large amounts of excess skin afterward. Our board-certified cosmetic surgeons understand that the end goal for many weight-loss patients is to be rid of the sagging, hanging skin that obscures their newly shaped contours. With a body lift, our team can help add the finishing touches to your new slimmer body, providing you with well-toned and natural-looking contours that complement your healthy new lifestyle. MALE BODY LIFT > Our Services > Male Surgeries > MALE BODY LIFT MALE BODY LIFT IN NEW YORK CITY Losing a large amount of weight should be an exciting and positive experience, but it doesn’t always feel that way if you’re stuck with large amounts of excess skin afterward. Our board-certified cosmetic surgeons understand that the end goal for many weight-loss patients is to be rid of the sagging, hanging skin that obscures their newly shaped contours.

Get A Quote Frequently asked questions Male Surgeries - Male Body Lift What is a Male Body Lift After Weight Loss? A male body lift is a comprehensive procedure that addresses excess tissue and fat in men who have lost extreme amounts of weight, especially those who have undergone bariatric or gastric bypass surgery. For these men, exercise cannot eliminate the stretched skin that has lost its elasticity. We customize each body lift procedure to the patient and their unique needs to tighten the abdomen, buttocks, back, and thighs, revealing the masculine frame underneath. Why should I choose New Look New Life? New Look New Life is a boutique cosmetic surgery practice in the heart of bustling New York City. Our team is dedicated to providing safe, handsome, and natural-looking aesthetic results that highlight your incredible weight-loss transformation. Dr. Claudia Kim personalizes your body lift to your unique anatomy and practices one-on-one care throughout your body contouring process. From your pre-op consultation to your post-op appointments, you will always have direct access to your surgeon. What Are the Benefits of Body Lift Surgery? Body lift surgery is performed on men to: Eliminate sagging or hanging skin resulting from massive weight loss Reduce remaining pockets of stubborn fat Tighten and sculpt a masculine physique to highlight your weight loss Prevent skin chafing and irritation within heavy skin folds Expand wardrobe opportunities and fit better in tailored clothing Increase your overall confidence Am I a Candidate for Body Lift Surgery? Massive weight loss is an amazing accomplishment that should be rewarded with a healthier life and a more confident outlook. For many men, the excess skin that remains after weight loss restricts movement, complicates comfortable dressing, and prevents complete enjoyment of their new lifestyle. Dr. Claudia Kim recommends that patients maintain their weight loss for a minimum of six months to a year before choosing a body lift. At New Look New Life, we pride ourselves on tailoring the safest and most effective cosmetic treatments to each individual patient. We often recommend that patients undergo body lift procedures in two or more stages so anesthesia risks are reduced and the recovery is more manageable. How Can I Personalize My Body Lift? A body lift is a comprehensive body contouring surgery that combines many surgical techniques. Because of this, Dr. Claudia Kim often suggests staggering your surgical procedure, with a lower body lift being performed separately from an upper body lift. What Is an Upper Body Lift? Your upper body lift will likely include a combination of the following: Gynecomastia Surgery: Removes excess skin and enlarged breast tissue from the chest to restore a flat, masculine pectoral contour. Male Arm Lift: Trims excess skin and fat from the upper arms (brachioplasty) so you can wear short sleeves comfortably. Back Lift: Addresses excess skin folds across the upper and mid-back area. What Is a Lower Body Lift? Your lower body lift will likely include a combination of the following: Male Tummy Tuck: Addresses the abdomen by trimming excess skin, removing fat pockets, and tightening separated abdominal muscles for a firmer core. Male Thigh Lift: Removes hanging skin and fat from the inner and outer thighs. Male Liposuction: Removes stubborn fat deposits across the lower body and flanks (love handles). Buttock Lift / Male BBL: A buttock lift removes excess skin around the buttocks and lower back, while a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) reshapes the buttocks by grafting fat taken from elsewhere on your body to restore proportion to a deflated backside. How Is the Body Lift Performed? Dr. Claudia Kim will skillfully make as few incisions as possible, removing excess fat and skin as is suitable for your body. Her dedication to natural contouring and appropriate size reduction will give you the firm, athletic appearance you desire. A total body lift is a comprehensive surgical procedure performed in a hospital setting. Patients who undergo a full, single-stage body lift will spend a few days recovering in the hospital prior to returning home to rest. For patients who choose to stage their body lift procedures, an overnight stay is often not required. Why should I consider adding Renuvion® to my Liposuction procedure? (copy) (copy) While Liposuction is the gold standard for permanently removing stubborn pockets of fat, it is not designed to tighten the overlying skin. If you have mild to moderate skin laxity, removing fat can sometimes leave the treated area looking slightly loose or deflated. By pairing your liposuction with a Renuvion® treatment, Dr. Claudia Kim can actively shrink and tighten the skin from the inside out using advanced radiofrequency and helium plasma energy. This dynamic combination ensures your newly sculpted contours look incredibly smooth, firm, and natural. What Will My Body Lift Recovery Be Like? Body lift recovery requires one to two weeks of downtime if done in stages. A total body lift requires a significant amount of additional rest and recovery time. You will be provided with a specific recovery plan that takes all of your surgical techniques into account. It is highly important to rest during your recovery and not push yourself too soon to prevent complications. Dr. Claudia Kim provides all of her patients with her cell phone number so that she can be reached easily at any time during your recovery. Is Body Lift Surgery Painful? Body lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia, so you will feel no pain during the surgery itself. Because body lift surgery is extensive, you will experience soreness and discomfort in the days and weeks following your procedure. The extent of this will depend on whether you staggered your procedures or had the surgeries performed simultaneously. Dr. Claudia Kim will prescribe appropriate pain medication to ease your recovery. Will My Body Lift Leave Scars? Your body lift requires incisions; therefore, the surgery will result in scars. The placement and extent of this scarring will depend on the types of surgical techniques being performed and the amount of skin removed. Dr. Claudia Kim uses advanced techniques to make these incisions as hidden and concealable as possible (such as placing them low on the waistline so they are hidden by underwear or swim trunks). All scars fade with time and can be significantly lessened with scar-fading treatments. What Does Body Lift Surgery Cost in New York? Because a body lift is highly personalized to your needs and anatomy, the cost of your surgery varies significantly. Our expert team at New Look New Life will provide you with an accurate, transparent cost estimate once your customized surgical plan has been determined. This price will include all the combined techniques, anesthesia, facility and operating room fees, required garments, and follow-up visits. You can learn more by visiting our Pricing page. When will I see the results of my body lift? Whether performed as a total procedure or staged in sections, your body lift results are immediate and significant! As with most cosmetic procedures, your newly sculpted physique will continue to look more defined as residual swelling goes down throughout the healing process. How should I prepare for my Body Lift? Body lift surgery is an invasive procedure performed under general anesthesia. Therefore, it is strictly required to quit smoking, reduce alcohol intake, and temporarily stop blood-thinning medication (such as NSAIDs, aspirin, and ibuprofen) to ensure optimal healing. Also, patients undergoing body lifts after weight loss must have reached and maintained a stable weight. Because body lift surgery requires downtime, you must arrange for help during your recovery. This includes scheduling time off work, stocking up on healthy meals, and setting up a comfortable recovery zone at home. What are the risks associated with body lift surgery? Body lift surgery is very safe when performed by an experienced, board-certified cosmetic surgeon like Dr. Claudia Kim. However, all surgeries carry some risk. These risks may include adverse reactions to anesthesia, blood clots, infection, or bleeding. Proper adherence to recovery guidelines is crucial to prevent wound separation. Are my body lift results permanent? Body lifts yield drastic skin reduction results that are designed to be permanent. As the body naturally ages, some skin elasticity will eventually be lost. However, maintaining a consistent weight through a healthy diet and exercise regimen will preserve your stunning body lift results indefinitely! Can I finance my Body Lift surgery? Yes! We believe that putting the finishing touches on your massive weight loss journey should be an accessible reality. New Look New Life offers flexible medical financing options through trusted partners like CareCredit®, Alphaeon Credit, Cherry, and PatientFi. Check out our Pricing & Financing information to learn how you can break your comprehensive transformation down into manageable monthly payments. Can I combine a Body Lift with a Abdominal Etching or Pec Implants? Absolutely. If your goal goes beyond simply removing excess skin and you want to achieve a highly athletic, chiseled appearance, Dr. Claudia Kim can incorporate advanced sculpting techniques. Adding Abdominal Etching can highlight your abdominal muscles to create a "six-pack" effect, while Pec Implants can restore masculine volume to a chest that has deflated from weight loss. Be sure to discuss all your aesthetic goals during your consultation! How do I get started with scheduling my Body Lift? If you have maintained your goal weight and are ready to finally shed the excess skin hiding your hard-earned results, we are ready to help. You can easily Book Now directly through our website, or call our New York concierge team at (212)-830-6830 to secure your one-on-one consultation with Dr. Claudia Kim.

  • Male Inverted Nipple | New Look New Life

    An inverted nipple is a condition in which the nipple of one breast or both breasts lies flat or points inward instead of pointing out. This can cause many men to feel self-conscious about their appearance. Some men are born with inverted nipples, while others may have this condition develop as they age. However, whether the nipple has always been inverted or it has occurred over time, inverted nipple surgery can help correct this issue. Inverted nipple surgery is a procedure that can correct male inverted nipples and restore a more natural and aesthetic look that boosts confidence and self-esteem. The board-certified surgical experts at New Look New Life have years of experience in correcting cosmetic issues such as inverted nipples, and they look forward to helping you look and feel the way you want.

Get A Quote Frequently asked questions Male Surgeries - Male Inverted Nipple Why should I choose New Look New Life? New Look New Life is dedicated to providing safe, handsome, and natural-looking results through customized cosmetic procedures. Dr. Claudia Kim will ensure you receive the focused attention you and your surgery deserve, and she is available to help answer any questions you might have throughout your surgical journey. From your pre-op consultation to your post-op appointments, you will always have direct access to your surgeon. What Are the Benefits of Inverted Nipple Surgery? After your surgery, your nipple(s) will no longer be inverted or sit flat against the areola. Instead, they will point outward. This will give your chest a much more natural, masculine aesthetic, which creates a significant boost in confidence. You will no longer feel self-conscious taking your shirt off at the beach, in the locker room, or with your partner. Am I a Candidate for Inverted Nipple Surgery? Candidates for inverted nipple surgery are men who have one or both nipples inverted and are bothered by their appearance. Candidates should be in good general health and have realistic expectations for their results. If you think you may be a candidate for inverted nipple surgery, contact New Look New Life by calling (212)-830-6830 or booking your consultation online. What Will Be Discussed During My Consultation? During your consultation, you will meet privately with Dr. Claudia Kim to discuss your goals for the procedure as well as any concerns you might have. Additionally, she will: Evaluate the condition of your nipples Take photos Explain the surgical procedure Give any pre- and post-operative instructions Recommend any combination procedures to enhance your chest contour How Is Inverted Nipple Surgery Done? After you are given local anesthesia to numb the area, Dr. Claudia Kim will make a tiny, discreet incision at the base of your nipple and carefully release the tension in the underlying tissue bands that are pulling the nipple inward. Dissolving sutures are then used to close the incision and hold the nipple in its new, projecting position. The entire procedure usually takes less than one hour to complete. Can I Combine My Inverted Nipple Surgery With Other Procedures? Yes. In fact, inverted nipple surgery is frequently combined with other male chest contouring procedures. One of the primary benefits of combining procedures is having less overall recovery time. Some procedures often combined with inverted nipple surgery include: Gynecomastia Surgery: To reduce enlarged male breast tissue or excess fat. Pec Implants: To add masculine volume and definition to a flat chest. What Will Recovery Be Like for My Inverted Nipple Surgery? It may take up to six weeks for full sensation to be completely restored after your surgery; however, you should be able to return to work the very next day. You will have mild tenderness, swelling, and bruising in the area, but this should dissipate over the following few days. You should refrain from vigorous chest exercises (like bench pressing or push-ups) during the week after your surgery. You may also be advised to wear a snug-fitting undershirt or avoid tight, abrasive clothing to protect the sensitive nipples as they heal. Is Inverted Nipple Surgery Painful? Local anesthesia will be used during the surgery, so you will not feel any pain. You will have some swelling, tenderness, and bruising after the procedure, but over-the-counter pain medication is typically more than enough to lessen any discomfort in the days following. Will My Surgery Leave Scars? Inverted nipple surgery does require a tiny incision, which means a small scar is inevitable. However, scars for this procedure tend to be virtually unnoticeable because of the short length of the incision and its strategic placement hidden at the base of the nipple. What Does Inverted Nipple Surgery Cost in New York? At New Look New Life, inverted nipple surgery starts as low as $3,000, which includes your surgeon's fee, anesthesia, facility and operating room fees, and all your follow-up visits. Because the exact price can vary based on whether you are correcting one or both nipples, you will be given a detailed quote at your consultation. Visit our Pricing page to learn more. How should I prepare for inverted nipple surgery? It is advised that you refrain from smoking for a month before and after your surgery to help speed up your recovery and ensure the tissue heals properly. You should also pause any blood-thinning medications (like aspirin or ibuprofen) for two weeks prior. What kind of anesthesia is used for inverted nipple surgery? Local anesthesia (numbing injections) is typically used for inverted nipple surgery, allowing you to remain awake and comfortable. However, general anesthesia may be used if your surgery is combined with more extensive procedures, like Gynecomastia surgery. How long does inverted nipple surgery take? Most inverted nipple surgeries take less than one hour to perform in our office. What are the risks associated with inverted nipple surgery? Inverted nipple surgery is an incredibly safe procedure with minimal side effects beyond temporary swelling and sensitivity. However, as with all surgeries, there are rare risks, including infection, bleeding, poor scarring, or potential changes to nipple sensation. When will I see the results of my inverted nipple surgery? You will see that your nipples are no longer inverted immediately after the procedure! However, it usually takes two to three weeks for residual swelling to subside and for your final, natural-looking results to become fully evident. Can I finance my Inverted Nipple surgery? Absolutely. We believe that feeling completely comfortable in your own skin should be accessible. We offer flexible medical financing options through trusted partners like CareCredit®, Alphaeon Credit, Cherry, and PatientFi. You can review our Pricing & Financing information to learn how to break your procedure down into manageable monthly payments. Can I drive myself home after the procedure? Yes! If you are having your inverted nipple surgery performed as a standalone procedure under local anesthesia, you will be fully alert and able to drive yourself home immediately afterward. If you are combining your surgery with another procedure that requires general anesthesia, you will need a friend or family member to drive you. How soon can I schedule my consultation and surgery? Because inverted nipple correction is a fast, straightforward outpatient procedure, we can often accommodate your timeline quickly—sometimes even performing the procedure on the same day as your consultation! If you are ready to take off your shirt with total confidence, Book Now online or call our New York concierge team at (212)-830-6830 to schedule your private appointment with Dr. Claudia Kim.

  • BBL | New Look New Life

BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT > Our Services > Body Surgeries > BBL BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT IN NEW YORK CITY Squats and stair-stepping workouts can help you tone your lower body, but there are limits to what exercise can accomplish for your backside due to age and genetics. The Brazilian Butt Lift is a widely popular cosmetic surgery that can give you that curvy shape you desire while also eliminating unwanted fat. Get A Quote Frequently asked questions Body Surgeries - BBL What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift? This body contouring surgery is unique from other buttock procedures because it uses your own body fat to contour the derrière instead of a gluteal implant. The fat grafting or fat transfer method allows for less recovery time and ensures natural-looking results. The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is ideal for anyone unhappy with their buttock contour who has adequate fat stores to take from other areas. Many of our Manhattan patients want a BBL to address body changes from age, pregnancy, or weight loss. Why should I choose New Look New Life? New Look New Life is dedicated to providing patients with safe and effective cosmetic procedures to help them achieve their ideal look. By choosing us for your cosmetic surgery needs, you can feel confident that our board-certified cosmetic surgeons will not recommend surgery or treatment unless it is the absolute best way to reach your aesthetic goals. Dr. Claudia Kim and our surgery team will do their best to fit your procedure seamlessly into your busy schedule, ensuring you have ample time to recover and show off your results for a big event or vacation. What Are the Benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift? Patients undergo Brazilian Butt Lift surgery to: Increase the size and projection of their buttocks Create a balanced, hourglass figure Achieve slimmer contours in the donor areas (like the waist or abdomen) Reduce sagging skin Smooth out the appearance of cellulite Fit better in clothing and swimwear Feel more confident Am I a Candidate for a BBL? You may be a candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift if you are unhappy with the size and shape of your butt. Candidates should be in good health, have realistic expectations of their results, and not smoke. Because a BBL relies on your own tissue, patients must also have enough excess fat on their bodies to safely harvest and inject into the buttocks. What Is Discussed During My Brazilian Butt Lift Consultation? A consultation is necessary to determine your specific needs for your Brazilian Butt Lift. During your consultation, Dr. Claudia Kim will review your medical history and perform a physical evaluation to determine if you are a candidate for the procedure. Once confirmed as a candidate, Dr. Claudia Kim will: Discuss your goals for the procedure Take photos Explain your surgical options Create a personalized surgical plan You will also receive an estimated financial plan based on your unique needs. If you are interested in combining your Brazilian Butt Lift with any other cosmetic procedure, that will be discussed during this time. How Can I Personalize My Brazilian Butt Lift? Since everyone has different needs and starting points, your Brazilian Butt Lift is highly customizable. You and Dr. Claudia Kim will determine your ideal donor sites and how much fat needs to be injected to achieve your desired curves. Where Are My Brazilian Butt Lift Incisions Made? Small incisions will be made at your donor sites to harvest the fat using gentle Liposuction techniques. Dr. Claudia Kim will strategically place these small incisions in inconspicuous areas so they are easily hidden. Where Is Fat Taken for a BBL? Common donor sites for Brazilian Butt Lift surgery are the waist, hips, thighs, and abdomen. However, fat can also be taken from the back, arms, or chin depending on where you carry excess weight. Should I Combine My Brazilian Butt Lift With a Tummy Tuck? Many patients choose to combine their Brazilian Butt Lift with a Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) to achieve a slimmer, more attractive abdomen. While liposuction techniques remove unwanted fat from the abdomen to inject into the buttocks, sagging skin will not be corrected with liposuction alone. A tummy tuck can eliminate excess skin from the abdomen to create a perfectly flat stomach that highlights your new curves. What Will My Brazilian Butt Lift Recovery Be Like? To properly recover from your Brazilian Butt Lift, you will need to take the first week off from work and other responsibilities to focus on resting. However, you can resume light walking activities almost immediately for a faster recovery. A critical part of BBL recovery is avoiding sitting directly on your buttocks for a designated period to ensure the newly transferred fat survives. Please be sure to closely follow all post-operative instructions provided by Dr. Claudia Kim to minimize your risk of complications and maximize your results. Is Brazilian Butt Lift Surgery Painful? Your Brazilian Butt Lift will be performed under general anesthesia to keep you comfortable. Because of this, you will not feel any pain during surgery. Any soreness or discomfort felt during your recovery can be effectively managed with prescription or over-the-counter medication. Will My BBL Leave Scars? Since only small incisions are made in inconspicuous areas to insert the liposuction cannula, scars are minimal and will naturally fade over time. How Much Is a Brazilian Butt Lift in New York? The cost of your Brazilian Butt Lift procedure will depend on the amount of correction needed, the number of donor sites used, and the specific surgical techniques required. Generally, your cost will include surgeon fees, anesthesia fees, operating room fees, and required garments. A consultation with Dr. Claudia Kim will help you determine an accurate financial estimate. Visit our Pricing page to learn more. How should I prepare for BBL surgery? Before surgery, you should plan to take adequate time off work and other obligations to properly rest and recover. Please plan to bring a responsible adult with you to the surgical appointment, as you will be unable to drive yourself home. You will also need a specialized BBL pillow to help you sit without putting pressure on your newly augmented buttocks. When will I see my Brazilian Butt Lift results? Results from your Brazilian Butt Lift surgery will be visible almost immediately! However, swelling and bruising will briefly affect the appearance of your results and may take a few weeks to subside. Your new curves will continue to improve and look more natural over the next few months as a small percentage of the fat is naturally absorbed by the body and the remaining fat permanently settles into place. How long does a Brazilian Butt Lift take to perform? Your Brazilian Butt Lift will take anywhere between two and four hours to complete. This varies based on how much liposuction is required and how much enhancement is needed. Are Brazilian Butt Lifts safe? When performed by a highly experienced, board-certified cosmetic surgeon like Dr. Claudia Kim, BBL surgery is generally safe. However, risks are present with any surgical procedure. Possible Brazilian Butt Lift risks include bruising, swelling, blood clots, anesthesia risks, or fat embolism. Dr. Claudia Kim utilizes the safest, most up-to-date ultrasound-guided techniques to ensure fat is injected purely into the subcutaneous space (above the muscle) to eliminate the risk of severe complications. Can I finance my Brazilian Butt Lift? Yes! Achieving the hourglass curves you've always wanted should be accessible and stress-free. We offer convenient financing options through CareCredit®, Alphaeon Credit, Cherry, and PatientFi to assist you in paying for your procedure. You can check out our Pricing & Financing information to learn how to break your BBL down into manageable monthly payments. Can I combine a BBL with a Mommy Makeover? Absolutely. Because a BBL utilizes fat from areas like the abdomen and waist, it pairs perfectly with other post-pregnancy restorative procedures. Many patients opt to combine their BBL with a Breast Augmentation or Breast Lift to complete a customized Mommy Makeover in a single surgical setting. How do I schedule my BBL consultation? Taking the first step toward your dream body is simple! If you're ready to enhance your curves and contour your waistline, we are ready to help. You can conveniently Book Now directly through our website, or you can call our New York concierge team at (212)-830-6830 to secure your personalized consultation with Dr. Claudia Kim.

  • PRP | New Look New Life

    Discover PLATELET RICH PLASMA treatments in New York City with our expert surgeons. Visit us at 551 5th Avenue for PLATELET RICH PLASMA. PLATELET RICH PLASMA PRP > Our Services > Lasers > PRP IN NYC PLATELET RICH PLASMA IN NEW YORK CITY Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has become an extremely popular non-surgical cosmetic skin treatment and can be performed as a topical treatment, in combination with microneedling, or as an injection. We perform PRP treatments at New Look New Life to help enhance the skin’s appearance and treat age-related concerns, acne scars, dry skin, and more. Frequently asked questions Injectables - PRP What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy? Our blood is made up of white blood cells, red blood cells, plasma, and platelets. Platelets are specific blood cells packed with powerful growth factors that possess natural, incredible healing qualities. PRP therapy is a revolutionary, all-natural treatment that extracts these healing platelets from your own body and concentrates them to rapidly jumpstart cellular repair, stimulate massive collagen production, and regenerate tissue. One of the best qualities of PRP therapy is that you are not putting any foreign substances into your body; you are simply supercharging your body's ability to repair itself! How does the PRP procedure work? At New Look New Life, PRP therapy is a simple, comfortable, three-step process: The Blood Draw: First, a small sample of blood is drawn (usually from your arm), just like a routine blood test. The Centrifuge: The blood is placed into a centrifuge, which spins at high speeds to separate the nutrient-rich PRP from the red and white blood cells. This takes only 10 to 20 minutes! The Application: Dr. Claudia Kim then expertly injects or applies this highly concentrated plasma directly into the targeted areas of the face or scalp to stimulate rapid regeneration. What cosmetic concerns can PRP treat? Because PRP uses your own natural growth factors, it is incredibly versatile and highly effective for two main concerns: Skin Rejuvenation: When injected into the face, PRP smooths fine lines, plumps under-eye hollows, deeply hydrates, and gives the skin a radiant, youthful glow. Hair Loss: When injected into the scalp, PRP increases the blood supply to the hair follicles, which thickens the hair shaft, stops hair shedding, and promotes new hair growth in dormant follicles. Am I a good candidate for PRP? Yes! Because PRP uses your own natural blood, there is virtually zero risk of an allergic reaction or your body rejecting the treatment. Ideal candidates are men and women looking to naturally restore thinning hair, as well as those looking to improve skin texture and elasticity without the use of synthetic dermal fillers. When will I see results, and how many sessions are needed? For Hair Loss: Most patients require an initial series of 4 to 6 treatments spaced a few weeks apart. You will typically begin to see healthier, thicker hair and new growth in balding areas within 3 to 6 months. Maintenance treatments are recommended every 3 to 6 months thereafter. For Skin: You will often notice a "PRP glow" within just a few weeks. A series of 3 treatments is usually recommended for optimal anti-aging results. Can I combine PRP with other skin and hair treatments? Absolutely—in fact, we highly recommend it! For the Face: Combining PRP with Microneedling (often called a "Vampire Facial") is one of the most effective ways to completely resurface the skin. The micro-channels allow the PRP to absorb deeply into the dermis, multiplying your collagen production and drastically cutting down your healing time. For the Scalp: PRP works phenomenally well as a supportive therapy before, during, or after a surgical Hair Restoration or Hair Transplantation procedure to ensure maximum graft survival and the thickest possible results! Is there any downtime after PRP injections? There is virtually no downtime! If you are receiving scalp injections, you can return to work immediately. If you are receiving facial injections or microneedling with PRP, you may experience mild redness or swelling for 24 to 48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn. Do you offer financing for PRP treatment packages? We certainly do. We believe that investing in your confidence—whether through glowing skin or a thicker head of hair—should be completely stress-free. We offer highly flexible medical financing options through Cherry, CareCredit®, Alphaeon Credit, and PatientFi. You can visit our Pricing page to learn how you can break your regenerative package down into easily manageable monthly payments. How do I schedule my PRP consultation? Taking the first step toward naturally restoring your hair or skin is completely confidential and easy.

Achieve a full, natural-looking head of hair with minimal discomfort and shorter recovery times. Learn more today! MALE HAIR RESTORATION > Our Services > Male Surgeries > A NEW HAIRLINE MALE HAIR RESTORATION IN NEW YORK CITY Hair loss can devastate anyone, and men tend to have more extensive hair restoration needs. They often require longer treatment and recovery times, as well as potential discomfort. Men typically experience male pattern baldness, a condition that leads to receding hairlines, bald spots, and thinning areas across the scalp. The good news is that advancements in hair transplant methods now allow men to achieve a full head of healthy hair that looks and feels like their real hair, with less hassle than ever before! New Look New Life Surgical Arts is pleased to offer the revolutionary Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) NO SCAR hair transplant system, an effective solution for male hair restoration in NYC. Get A Quote Frequently asked questions Male Surgeries - Male Hair Restoration What Is NeoGraft® Automated Hair Restoration for Men? Dr. Claudia Kim and our detail-oriented team are committed to meeting the unique hair restoration needs of each patient. The NeoGraft® system uses Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), a highly advanced hair restoration method. FUE is a minimally invasive procedure that provides natural-looking results by carefully extracting individual hair follicles from the donor site (usually the back of the head) and transplanting them to the balding or thinning areas. With the older strip technique, physicians used a scalpel to take a large strip of skin from the donor site and then closed the incision with stitches. Alternatively, NeoGraft® offers a state-of-the-art, less invasive approach in which individual hair follicles are removed and implanted one by one, ensuring a smooth recovery and minimal downtime with absolutely no linear scar. What Are the Benefits of NeoGraft® for Men? Experimenting with different hairstyles only camouflages hair loss for so long before hats, over-the-counter creams, and hairpieces find their way into your daily life. The NeoGraft® automated hair restoration system offers many permanent advantages for men, including: Meticulous precision for natural-looking, undetectable results A less invasive, more comfortable experience compared to traditional hair transplant surgery No stitches required, reducing discomfort and recovery time No linear scar on the back of the head As little as a 24-hour recovery period for most patients Faster results with noticeable hair growth within months Permanent hair regrowth that continues long after the treatment Am I A Candidate for the NeoGraft® Hair-Transplantation System? It's important to understand that the extent of your restoration depends on how much healthy hair is available to be transplanted from your donor site (typically located on the back or sides of your head). Men suffering from androgenetic alopecia or male pattern hair loss often have incredibly viable donor areas for FUE procedures. To determine if NeoGraft® is right for you, schedule a consultation with Dr. Claudia Kim at New Look New Life to evaluate your hair density, follicle health, and scalp condition. What Is Discussed During My Hair Restoration Consultation? During your initial consultation, Dr. Claudia Kim will evaluate your scalp, review your medical history, and discuss your concerns about hair loss. She will assess the exact cause of your hair loss and discuss all available treatment options. If you're a good candidate for hair restoration surgery, Dr. Claudia Kim will provide a customized treatment plan. This plan may also involve complementary treatments such as PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) or exosomes or other topical medications to enhance follicle health and maximize your results. How Does Automated Hair Restoration Work? NeoGraft® FUE Hair Transplants are completed in 5 highly precise steps: The donor area of the scalp is cleaned and numbed with a local anesthetic. The healthy hair follicles are extracted individually and collected in a special, temperature-controlled receptacle. The target area (the thinning or balding spots) is cleaned and anesthetized. Dr. Claudia Kim creates a predetermined pattern of tiny grafting slits throughout the treatment zone that mimics your natural hair growth pattern. Each healthy follicle (graft) is meticulously placed into these openings. What Will My NeoGraft® Recovery Be Like? NeoGraft® is far less invasive than other hair restoration methods and typically involves only one day of downtime. You should be able to return to normal activities or work the day after your treatment. You will need to wear a bandage on your scalp for a few days and may be prescribed an anti-inflammatory to minimize postoperative swelling. Your scalp may be sensitive for up to a week following your procedure, but you will be fully guided on how to wash and care for the grafts during this critical time. Is Hair Restoration Painful? Local anesthesia is used to completely numb the scalp, so you will not feel pain during the treatment. Most patients report little to no discomfort while the grafts are being extracted and placed. Post-surgery, mild discomfort or tenderness may occur, but this is easily managed with over-the-counter or prescribed pain medication. Does NeoGraft® Leave Scars? Unlike the outdated strip method, the NeoGraft® Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplant technique leaves no linear scar. The extraction sites are so incredibly small that they heal virtually undetectably, making it the ideal option for men who want to wear their hair short in the back without any visible signs of surgery. What Does NeoGraft® Hair Restoration Cost in New York? The cost of hair restoration with NeoGraft® varies depending on the number of grafts needed to achieve your desired coverage. The exact price of your customized procedure will be discussed during your consultation. While you may have to start spending more on haircuts again, our patients find that permanent, natural hair regrowth is a priceless investment! Check out our Pricing page to learn more. How should I prepare for NeoGraft®? You will need to discontinue blood-thinning medications (like aspirin, NSAIDs, vitamins, and certain supplements) one week before your treatment to prevent bleeding. Regarding your haircut, you may want to grow your hair out prior to your procedure so the donor area will be easily hidden by the surrounding hair while it heals. Alternatively, some men prefer to get a short buzz cut right before their procedure so their hair grows back completely evenly. Dr. Claudia Kim will advise you on the best approach for your specific lifestyle. How long does hair restoration with NeoGraft® take? Hair transplantation is a meticulous process, but the automated NeoGraft® system is significantly faster than manual extraction. Depending on your level of hair loss and the number of grafts required, your treatment may last anywhere from three to eight hours. At New Look New Life, we provide a relaxing environment where you can comfortably rest, read, scroll on your phone, or watch television during your procedure. What are the risks associated with NeoGraft® hair restoration? When receiving your NeoGraft® treatment from a qualified expert like Dr. Claudia Kim, the risk of complications is incredibly low. However, as with any procedure, minor risks exist, including temporary infection, inflammation, or shock loss (temporary shedding of the transplanted hairs before they regrow). When will I see my hair restoration results? Patience is key with hair restoration! The transplanted hairs will typically shed within the first few weeks—this is completely normal. The new, permanent root will then begin to grow fresh hair. Early results begin to show around four to six months following your procedure. You will see dramatic, full results within 12 to 14 months as the hairs fully mature and thicken. Can I combine NeoGraft® Hair Restoration with Facial Rejuvenation? Yes! Many men who are looking to turn back the clock choose to pair their hair restoration with non-surgical anti-aging treatments. We can easily administer Botox & Dysport or facial fillers during the same visit to smooth out deep forehead wrinkles or crow's feet, giving your entire face a refreshed, youthful appearance to match your new hairline. Can I finance my NeoGraft® Hair Restoration? Absolutely. We believe that restoring your hairline and your confidence should fit comfortably into your budget. We offer flexible medical financing options through CareCredit®, Alphaeon Credit, Cherry, and PatientFi. Review our Pricing & Financing information to learn how you can break your hair transplant investment down into manageable monthly payments. How do I get started with scheduling my procedure?

    Breast augmentation is a cosmetic breast surgery that increases the size & enhances the shape of the breasts. Book breast augmentation surgery in NYC. BREAST AUGMENTATION > Our Services > Body Surgeries > BREAST SURGERY BREAST AUGMENTATION IN NEW YORK CITY For many women, their breasts deeply affect their body image and self-confidence. Most of the focus on these body parts centers on size and shape. Some with smaller breasts are completely satisfied, while others desire a curvier or more voluptuous upper body. Breast augmentation is a cosmetic breast surgery designed to increase the size and enhance the shape of a woman’s breasts with saline or silicone implants. Get A Quote Frequently asked questions Body Surgeries - Breast Augmentation Why should I choose New Look New Life? New Look New Life is committed to providing safe and effective breast augmentation options to deliver beautiful results through customized breast procedures. Dr. Claudia Kim and our surgical team personalize your breast augmentation treatment plan according to your desires and needs, and are there for you throughout the entire process. What Are the Benefits of Breast Augmentation? Breast augmentation is performed on women to: Create more feminine upper body contours Add or restore breast volume Improve breast symmetry Improve body confidence Make certain clothing styles look better on them Am I a Candidate for Breast Augmentation? Women turn to breast augmentation to enhance small breasts or to restore breast volume after pregnancy or weight loss. Women who are considering breast augmentation should be in good overall health, have realistic expectations of their results, not smoke, and be able to follow a surgeon's instructions carefully. Candidates for saline implants must be at least 18 years old, and 22 or older for silicone implants. If you are over 35 or you have a family history of breast cancer, you may be asked to undergo a preliminary mammogram. What Is Discussed During My Breast Augmentation Consultation? Your consultation is essential for a successful breast augmentation because it is personalized to meet your unique needs. During your consultation, Dr. Claudia Kim will: Listen to your concerns and goals Discuss your many options for the implants, incisions, and placement Take measurements and photos Recommend any combination procedures Develop your surgical plan If you think you may be a candidate for breast augmentation, contact New Look New Life by calling (212)-830-6830 or booking an appointment online. How Can I Personalize My Breast Augmentation? You will work with Dr. Claudia Kim to choose the implant material, shape, incision type, and placement options that best provide the results you desire. What Are My Breast Implant Options? (Implant Material) Breast implants have a durable silicone shell filled with saline or silicone gel. Silicone: These highly customizable and versatile implants are filled with a thick silicone gel that feels and looks like natural breast tissue. Silicone implants are thought to feel and appear more natural than saline. The manufacturer prefills silicone implants; therefore, they sometimes require a larger incision. We offer the highly cohesive Natrelle® breast implants and Mentor® implants. Saline: These implants are filled with a sterile saline (saltwater) solution. Saline implants are filled by your surgeon during the procedure, allowing for a smaller incision. Saline implants usually provide a more augmented look. What Are My Breast Implant Options? (Implant Shape) Silicone implants are available in various shapes that will provide different aesthetic appearances. Round: Round implants are spherical and provide equal fullness to the top and bottom of the breast. Anatomical: Anatomical—or gummy bear—implants have a teardrop shape to replicate natural breast tissue more closely. These implants have a thicker gel consistency to keep their shape better. What Are My Breast Implant Options? (Implant Texture) Smooth: Smooth implants have a soft surface that allows the implant to rotate in the breast pocket. Textured: Textured implants have a rough surface that attaches to the breast tissue and prevents the implant from rotating in the breast pocket. This option is often recommended for teardrop-shaped implants since rotation would cause aesthetic distortion. What Are My Breast Implant Options? (Implant Profile) The implant profile determines how your implant will project from your chest. Your desired aesthetics and body frame will influence your implant profile options: Low profile: Implants that have a broad base but provide little projection (ideal for women with a broader chest wall). Moderate profile: Implants with a narrower base and more projection (ideal for women with average-width chest walls). High profile: Implants with an even smaller base that provides even more projection (ideal for women with small chest walls). Ultra high profile: Implants with the most narrow base and projection (ideal for very petite women). Where Will My Implants Be Placed? Your implants will be placed either above or below the pectoral muscle. Submuscular: The implant will be placed under the pectoralis major muscle. This option is ideal for women with thin breast tissue, making the implants look more natural. Submuscular placement is the preferred method of the surgeons at New Look New Life. Subglandular: The implant is between the breast tissue and the chest muscle. This placement option is ideal for women who lift weights. It requires sufficient existing breast tissue as they are more prone to rippling. Where Will My Breast Augmentation Incisions Be Made? Inframammary: An incision is made along the crease beneath your breast to help conceal the resulting scars. This reduces the chances of post-operative infection and capsular contracture. Periareolar: A crescent-shaped incision is made in the upper portion of the areola, where the dark pigment will hide the scars. Transaxillary: The incision is made in the armpit. Placing the implant can be more challenging and is not recommended for use with silicone options. Should I Combine My Breast Augmentation With a Breast Lift? Many women consider breast augmentation due to lost volume after weight loss and pregnancy. Unfortunately, many also experience premature breast ptosis (sagging). Breast lift surgery elevates sagging breasts by tightening the glandular tissues, repositioning the nipple-areola complex, and removing excess skin. Breast lift surgery can typically be performed at the same time as breast augmentation. What Is Breast Augmentation With Fat Grafting? The surgeons at New Look New Life offer fat grafting as a natural alternative to implants. Breast augmentation with fat transfer harvests unwanted body fat with liposuction and transfers it to the breast. This technique cannot increase the volume of the breasts as much as breast implants, but it comes without the risk of implant complications. What Will My Breast Augmentation Recovery Be Like? Your breasts will be placed in a compression garment or surgical bra to ensure proper healing while helping to reduce swelling and promoting ideal blood circulation. You must rest for the first few days of your recovery. Most patients return to work within one to two weeks but are advised to avoid strenuous exercise for at least four to six weeks. You will be able to reach Dr. Claudia Kim with questions or concerns from the time of your pre-op appointment to your post-op visit. New Look New Life is dedicated to providing this one-on-one care. Is Breast Augmentation Painful? You can expect some bruising and swelling after your breast augmentation surgery, which should subside considerably within the first week. You will be prescribed pain medicine or choose to use over-the-counter medication to alleviate discomfort. Will My Breast Augmentation Leave Scars? All surgical procedures cause some level of scarring, but these scars are easily concealed and will fade over time. To help minimize scar visibility, you should avoid underwire bras during the healing process, keep the incisions out of the sun, and apply scar cream or silicone strips. What Does Breast Augmentation Cost in New York? Your breast augmentation is personalized to help you achieve your cosmetic goals. At New Look New Life, our breast augmentation starts at $7,500. However, this may vary significantly once your implant selection, anesthesia fees, facility fees, and pre-surgical tests are factored in. Visit our Pricing page to learn more. How should I prepare for my breast augmentation? You will need to stop taking all blood-thinning medications before your operation. You will also be asked to stop smoking for at least two weeks before and after your breast augmentation. Can I have breast augmentation before I have children? Breast augmentation will not affect your pregnancy or your children; however, many women experience breast changes during pregnancy. Pregnancy after breast augmentation may necessitate a secondary breast procedure like a breast revision or a breast lift to restore a more attractive breast aesthetic. Can I breastfeed after breast augmentation? Most women experience no difficulty breastfeeding their child following breast augmentation. Traditionally, breast implants do not damage or interfere with the connection between the nipples and the milk ducts. What are the risks associated with breast augmentation? While complications are not expected, breast augmentation is still surgery. Potential physical complications include adverse reactions to anesthesia, bleeding, infection, capsular contracture, implant rupture, or implant displacement. Potential aesthetic complications include breast asymmetry and unfavorable scarring. What is capsular contracture, and how can I identify it? Capsular contracture is a potential implant complication that develops when the scar tissue surrounding the implant begins to contract. This requires the removal of the implant and scar tissue capsule, but one or both breasts can receive new, healthy implants. What should I do if I notice an aesthetic change in one or both of my breasts? Breast augmentation results are long-lasting but are not guaranteed to last a lifetime. If you notice breast asymmetry, lumps in the breasts, changes in implant position, or breast pain, contact Dr. Claudia Kim right away. A breast revision may be necessary to correct implant-related complications. Do breast implants increase my breast cancer risk? No. Breast implants are not associated with breast cancer and do not increase your breast cancer risk in any way. Mammograms can still be performed after breast augmentation, but it's essential to notify your mammogram provider that you have implants. Can I finance my breast augmentation? Yes! We believe that feeling confident in your body should be accessible. We offer convenient financing options through CareCredit® to assist you in paying for your breast augmentation in New York. You can review our Pricing & Financing information to learn how to make your dream results a reality. What other procedures pair well with a breast augmentation? Many of our patients opt to combine their breast enhancement with other contouring procedures for a full-body transformation. If you are a mother looking to restore your pre-pregnancy body, you may be a perfect candidate for a Mommy Makeover, which typically combines breast surgery with a Tummy Tuck and Liposuction. Dr. Claudia Kim will gladly discuss combination procedures during your consultation! How soon can I schedule my breast augmentation? We try to accommodate our patients' busy lives as much as possible! Wait times for surgery can vary depending on the season, but the first step is always an initial consultation to confirm you are a good candidate and order any necessary lab work.

Book Now Frequently asked questions Med Bar - Calm n Balance What is the Calm & Balance facial, and what does it include? The Calm & Balance facial is a gentle, deeply restorative treatment specifically formulated for sensitive, reactive, or redness-prone skin. Available at our Med Bar, this 50-minute medical-grade facial focuses on reducing inflammation and repairing the skin barrier. It includes soothing steam, ultra-light extractions (if tolerated), a mild lactic or mandelic acid peel, and an intensely calming mask to leave your skin feeling even, hydrated, and relieved. What is the price of the Calm & Balance facial? This deeply restorative 50-minute treatment is $399. You can view all of our aesthetic and surgical treatment costs transparently on our Pricing page. Who is the ideal candidate for this facial? The Calm & Balance facial is perfect for individuals who cannot tolerate aggressive exfoliation. It is specifically designed for clients struggling with rosacea, chronic redness, an impaired skin barrier, or severe sensitivity. Does this facial include a chemical peel? Yes, but it is incredibly gentle! We use either a mild lactic acid or mandelic acid peel, both of which are famous for their large molecular size. This means they lightly sweep away dead skin cells without penetrating deeply enough to cause irritation or burning. Dr. Claudia Kim and your esthetician will select the exact formulation based on your skin's unique tolerance level. Will there be redness or downtime after the treatment? No, quite the opposite! Unlike harsher facials that may temporarily inflame the skin, the Calm & Balance facial is designed to reduce redness. Most clients leave New Look New Life with a visibly more even skin tone and improved comfort immediately following the treatment. There is absolutely no downtime. How often should I book this facial? To maintain a strong, healthy skin barrier and keep chronic redness at bay, we highly recommend booking this facial every 4 to 6 weeks. Can this facial be combined with laser treatments for rosacea? Yes! A strong, healthy skin barrier is crucial for getting the best possible results from laser treatments. A Calm & Balance facial is an excellent way to prep your skin a few weeks before receiving a Forever Clear BBL or Halo laser treatment. It also serves as fantastic maintenance to keep inflammation down between your laser sessions. Is this facial safe if I am pregnant or nursing? Because pregnancy hormones can often make skin highly reactive, sensitive, or prone to "pregnancy mask" (melasma), gentle treatments are ideal! During your consultation, simply let us know you are pregnant, and we will customize the Calm & Balance ingredients to ensure they are 100% pregnancy-safe for both you and your baby. Can I get Botox or Fillers on the same day as my facial? Absolutely. Treating yourself to a soothing facial is a wonderful way to relax before your injectables! However, it is very important that you receive the Calm & Balance facial before Botox & Dysport or Dermal Fillers. Receiving a facial massage after injectables can cause the products to shift out of place. What if I have acne but my skin is also very sensitive? This is a very common issue! If you have active breakouts but your skin is too irritated or dry for aggressive acne treatments, the Calm & Balance facial is an excellent starting point. By repairing your skin barrier first, we can reduce the underlying inflammation driving the breakouts. Once your skin is stronger, we can gradually introduce treatments like the Fresh Face Detox. How do I schedule my Calm & Balance facial? Soothed, comfortable, and beautifully balanced skin is just an appointment away. You can conveniently Book Now directly through our website, or call our welcoming New York concierge team at (212)-830-6830 to schedule your Med Bar experience.
