- Kybella - Weight Loss | New Look New Life
Target and permanently reduce double chin fat with Kybella at New Look New Life in NYC. Non-surgical, FDA-approved, and ideal for refining your profile Kybella > Our Services > Weight Loss > WEIGHT LOSS IN NYC KYBELLA IN NEW YORK CITY Kybella is a non-surgical injectable treatment that permanently destroys fat cells under the chin, helping to contour the jawline and reduce the appearance of a double chin. It’s a great option for those starting their weight loss journey who want a confidence boost without surgery. Results are gradual, with improved definition seen after a series of treatments. Book Now What is Kybella and how does it work? Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that dissolves submental fat (commonly known as a double chin) using deoxycholic acid—a substance that naturally breaks down fat in the body. Is Kybella only for double chins? While it’s FDA-approved for submental fat, some providers use Kybella off-label to treat small pockets of fat in areas like the bra bulge, jawline, or lower belly. Ask us if you’re a candidate. How many Kybella treatments will I need? Most patients need 2–4 sessions spaced about 4–6 weeks apart. The exact number depends on the amount of fat and your desired result. Does Kybella help with weight loss? Kybella is not a weight loss treatment. It’s designed for people near their goal weight who want to contour stubborn fat areas that don’t respond to diet or exercise. Am I a good candidate for Kybella? If you have mild to moderate fat under the chin or in other small areas and good skin elasticity, you may be a good candidate. We’ll evaluate your goals and anatomy during your consultation. What does the recovery look like? Swelling, bruising, and tenderness are common and can last several days. Some swelling may last up to two weeks. Most people return to work within a few days. Are the results of Kybella permanent? Yes, once the fat cells are destroyed, they’re gone for good. However, significant weight gain can still impact the treated area, so maintaining your weight is key. Can I combine Kybella with other treatments? Yes. Kybella can be part of a larger treatment plan that includes GLP-1s, skin tightening, or surgery for a more comprehensive approach to fat reduction and facial sculpting. How do I start Kybella treatment at New Look New Life? Book a consultation with our team. We’ll assess your goals and build a custom treatment plan that aligns with your overall weight loss and body contouring journey.

Asclera® is a non- surgical vein injection therapy (sclerotherapy) that we perform to treat both spider and uncomplicated reticula veins. How is Asclera® used to treat spider veins? Asclera® is a vein injection therapy, or sclerotherapy, that is also highly effective in the cosmetic treatment for vein conditions including spider veins and uncomplicated reticula veins. Once injected, Asclera® causes the lining of blood vessels to swell and block the flow of blood. The vessels then clot and the body slowly disintegrates the vein. Is Asclera® right for me?

Most patients enjoy a remarkable improvement after just one treatment, though it is often necessary to schedule multiple treatments for optimal results. How should I prepare for spider vein treatment? Beyond your consultation, no specific preparation is needed. How is Asclera® used for vein treatment? Each visible vein will be carefully addressed with injections of Asclera®. It is very common for patients to need several injection treatments over a series of appointments. This allows time for the medication to thrombose the veins and for our doctor to evaluate progress and retreat any stubborn areas. How long does Asclera® treatment take? Each vein treatment session takes just about 30 to 45 minutes. How long does recovery take? Your veins will become less and less visible as the medication takes effect and healing continues. It is recommended that you avoid strenuous exercise, sun exposure, hot tubs, and plane flights for a few days after treatment. Depending on the degree of your vein treatment, we may advise you to wear support hose or compression stockings for a short period of time. How soon can I start exercising after an Asclera® treatment? You can comfortably resume your exercise routine in just two to three days. What are the Asclera® risks?

An episiotomy is an incision made in the perineum (the area between the vagina and anus) in order to facilitate childbirth. In the past, episiotomies were a standard procedure during vaginal births as it was thought a surgical incision would heal better than a tear. However, in recent years doctors have realized that this is not the case, and episiotomies are only performed when necessary. Episiotomies can cause complications such as: Fistula (a hole between the vagina and rectum) Formation of a “trigger point” that makes intercourse or even tampon insertion painful Granulation tissue Knots or other abnormalities These complications can cause a severe decrease in your quality of life, and generally will persist without healing on their own. A revision of your episiotomy can help you feel normal again and restore your quality of life.

In addition, candidates for revision episiotomy: Are in good general health Understand the risks Are able to take some time off for recovery Want to restore their ability to have sexual intercourse Are bothered by pain or discomfort that has not dissipated although significant time has passed since their procedure You can have a revision episiotomy even years after your original procedure. It’s never too late to regain the quality of life you might have thought you lost forever. Recovery After Revision Episiotomy Recovery after a revision episiotomy is approximately the same duration as after an original episiotomy. It may be longer or shorter depending on the extent and complexity of surgery. During your recovery, you’ll need to take care not to strain the area in any way so that the revision heals properly. You’ll have restrictions on activities you can do, and you’ll be sore and tender. You’ll have prescription medications to help you through the first few days, and Dr. Shats will give you tips to help make your recovery easier. Although it may seem daunting to have to undergo another surgery and long recovery, most women are very happy that they underwent this procedure. The increase in quality of life tends to be well worth the initial pain to get there. Frequently Asked Questions

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightens the underlying muscles for a flatter, firmer midsection. Who is a good candidate for a tummy tuck after weight loss? Ideal candidates are individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight and are left with loose, hanging abdominal skin or weakened abdominal muscles that can’t be improved through exercise alone. Will a tummy tuck help me lose more weight? A tummy tuck is not a weight loss procedure, but it can enhance your body shape after major weight loss by removing excess skin and improving core strength and posture. Can I combine a tummy tuck with other procedures? Yes, many patients combine a tummy tuck with liposuction, breast surgery, or lower body lifts as part of a post-weight loss or mommy makeover plan. What is recovery like after a tummy tuck? Most patients take about 2–4 weeks off work to recover. You’ll need to avoid strenuous activity for 4–6 weeks and wear a compression garment to help reduce swelling. Will I have a scar after a tummy tuck? Yes, there will be a scar along the lower abdomen, usually hidden below the bikini line. Our surgeons place incisions strategically for the most discreet results possible. How long do tummy tuck results last? Results are long-lasting, especially if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Skin and muscle won’t stretch back unless there’s major weight fluctuation or pregnancy. Is a tummy tuck covered by insurance after weight loss?

However, in rare cases involving skin irritation or medical concerns, partial coverage may be available—our team can guide you through the process. Why choose New Look New Life for my tummy tuck?

Breast reduction surgery is performed on women to: Reduce the weight of overly large breasts Reshape the newly reduced breasts Tighten and raise the breasts (with the assistance of a breast lift) Resize or reposition the nipple-areola complex Reduce breast-related back, neck, and shoulder pain Prevent shoulder grooving from bra straps from worsening Prevent under-breast chafing and skin infections Alleviate emotional insecurities resulting from a large breast size Improve posture by balancing out proportions Am I a Candidate for Breast Reduction Surgery? Debilitating pain and discomfort from overly large breasts can impact your ability to participate in sports and wear certain types of clothing. Many women are self-conscious of their large breast size, and breast reduction can alleviate many — if not all — of these symptoms. Breast reduction can be useful for women of any age with fully developed breasts. Women should be in good overall health with no pre-existing conditions that impair the healing process. We also offer male breast reduction for men with gynecomastia , in which breast tissue is overdeveloped, causing enlarged breasts and sensitivity. What Is Discussed During My Breast Reduction Consultation? Since your breast reduction is customized to your needs, a consultation with your board-certified surgeon at New Look New Life is essential to your surgery’s success. During this meeting, your surgeon will: Discuss your goals for your breast reduction Evaluate your skin condition Take photos Explain your surgical options Recommend any combination procedures Develop a realistic surgical plan Your breast reduction surgery in New York will be scheduled shortly after your in-office consultation . If you think you may be a candidate for breast reduction surgery, contact New Look New Life Surgical Arts by calling (212)-830-6830. How Can I Personalize My Breast Reduction Surgery? The board-certified cosmetic surgeons at New Look New Life Cosmetic Surgical Arts perform every breast reduction according to their patient’s specific needs. Breast reduction usually takes between two and four hours to complete. This outpatient procedure will be performed at our Manhattan surgical center. What Is the Anchor Incision? Breast reduction surgery is usually performed using the anchor (inverted-T) technique. This involves a series of incisions that run around the areola, down the lower pole of the breast, and across the inframammary fold (breast crease beneath the breast). Excess breast tissue is removed from the top and sides of the breast to reach the ideal size and shape. Your cosmetic surgeon will then reposition and center the breast tissue and nipples to achieve a youthful, lifted placement. Breast reduction is a safe and effective way to reduce breast size permanently. Should I Combine My Breast Reduction With a Breast Lift? Breast reduction surgery is almost always performed in combination with a breast lift when there is significant volume reduction. Breast lift surgery uses the same incisions as a breast reduction and is performed to tighten the remaining breast tissue and remove excess skin. Together, these breast enhancement surgeries allow for a lighter, more compact, lifted, and firmer breast appearance. What Will My Breast Reduction Recovery Be Like? You can rest in our comfortable post-operative suite before going home with a friend or family member. You will need help for the first 24 to 48 hours, and we are available to answer any questions or concerns during your recovery. Our board-certified cosmetic surgeons provide all of their patients with their cell phone numbers so that they can be reached at all times. We understand that our Manhattan patients have busy lifestyles and schedules, and you will likely be able to return to work after week one. You will need to get plenty of rest and avoid putting a strain on your new breasts. Avoid bending, stretching, lifting, and running until told otherwise. You will have a follow-up appointment at New Look New Life Surgical Arts the day after your breast reduction and again one week later. Bruising, swelling, and scarring will fade over the following weeks and months, and nipple sensation will return gradually. Is Breast Reduction Painful? Breast reduction is performed under general anesthesia to prevent any pain during surgery. Any post-operative discomfort can be alleviated with a prescription or over-the-counter pain medication like TYLENOL®. Will My Breast Reduction Leave Scars? Some scarring will be concealed in the darker pigment of the areolas, while others will fade over time. Most women find that dealing with breast reduction scars is far better than the physical and emotional discomfort of overly large breasts. How Much Does a Breast Reduction Cost in NYC? At New Look New Life in Manhattan, breast reduction starts as low as $9,500. A detailed quote will be provided during your consultation. This price will include anesthesia fees, facility and operating expenses, recovery garments, and your surgeon’s fees. The cost of your breast reduction also includes all follow-up visits during recovery. We offer financing options through CareCredit® to assist you in paying for your breast reduction in New York. How Should I Prepare for my Breast Reduction? Your cosmetic breast surgeon will review your pre- and post-operative instructions during your consultation. These will include quitting smoking and avoiding medications that thin the blood (such as NSAIDs, aspirin, Advil®, Aleve®, and some herbal supplements) for at least 10 to 14 days. You will also need to arrange for time off of work and your daily obligations. When will I see the results of my breast reduction? Many of our breast reduction patients are thrilled with their smaller, firmer, and more proportionate breasts. Your results will be noticeable right away, and as you heal, you’ll continue to notice and enjoy the freedom of smaller breasts. You will be able to wear clothing that wasn’t an option before and enjoy activities that were previously painful and limited due to your large breasts. Are there any risks associated with breast reduction surgery? You are in experienced hands with New Look New Life’s board-certified cosmetic surgeons. However, there is a risk of potential surgical complications. These complications include: Reactions to the anesthesia Bleeding Infections Prolonged wound healing Seroma Changes in sensation Numbness of the nipples Aesthetic complications include: Poor scarring Breast asymmetry You can reduce your risk of these and any other potential complications by following your surgeon’s post-operative instructions. Can I breastfeed after breast reduction? Breast reduction involves the removal of tissue surrounding the milk ducts. Therefore, it is very possible that the ducts can be damaged during the procedure, thus limiting your ability to breastfeed. While this is not a problem for every woman, it is a potential complication. If you want to breastfeed after your breast reduction, please discuss your plans with your breast surgeon.

What Are the Benefits of Hand Rejuvenation? Your hands experience significant trauma and stress every day. Even with proper moisturization, the skin on your hands will age, and you likely see noticeable volume loss that leaves your hands looking older, thinner, and more gaunt than you would like. Our hand rejuvenation treatments are performed on women and men to address various aesthetic hand concerns, such as: Volume loss Visible veins Dark spots or sun damage Fine lines and wrinkles Am I a Candidate for Hand Rejuvenation? Anyone who is self-conscious or embarrassed by signs of aging, visible veins, or spots on their hands may benefit from a personalized hand rejuvenation procedure at New Look New Life. Our team of trained doctors and cosmetic surgeons will carefully look at your hands and listen to your expectations to create a unique treatment plan for you. What Is Discussed During My Consultation for Hand Rejuvenation? Before you schedule your hand treatment, you will have a one-on-one consultation with one of our certified doctors at New Look New Life. Together, the two of you will determine which methods of hand rejuvenation will be best for achieving your personal aesthetic goals. The treatments involved in your hand rejuvenation may be non-surgical, surgical, or a combination of both. If you think you may be a candidate for hand rejuvenation, contact New Look New Life Surgical Arts by calling (212)-830-6830 . How Can I Personalize My Hand Rejuvenation? Several methods are available when restoring volume and addressing pigment concerns on the hands. The method of hand rejuvenation used for your procedure will be based on the current state of your hands, your desired outcome, and your discussion with your New York cosmetic surgeon. Hand rejuvenation can be surgical or non-surgical, depending on your specific needs. These treatments are performed to help restore more youthful-looking hands. What Hand Rejuvenation Options Are Available to Address Volume Loss? Volume loss on the back of the hands is one of the biggest tell-tale signs of visible aging. This can be addressed using one or more non-surgical or surgical options. Your hand rejuvenation treatment may include: Injectable Fillers: This is used to restore volume in the hands to improve the appearance of veiny/bony hands. One or more injectable dermal fillers may be given to achieve natural-looking volume. Fat Grafting: Used as a more permanent method of volume restoration, fat grafting takes fat cells from other areas of the body to achieve a fuller and more youthful appearance of the hands. What Hand Rejuvenation Options Are Available to Tighten Skin? Loose skin can be targeted using one or more non-surgical options. These treatments help address mild to moderate skin laxity on the backs of the hands. Your hand rejuvenation treatment may include: Ultherapy®: Ultherapy® is a non-surgical ultrasound treatment that can be used to tighten the skin of your hands. PRP Injections: These non-surgical injections of your own blood cells (growth factor-rich platelets) help to stimulate collagen for younger-looking hands. What Hand Rejuvenation Options Are Available to Address Pigment Concerns? Your hands are prone to sun damage, and this can result in undesirable pigment irregularities, including brown spots, red spots, and veins. Your hand rejuvenation treatment may include: Laser Resurfacing/Clear and Brilliant®: These non-surgical laser treatments can reduce signs of aging or sunspots from the hands. Asclera: This non-surgical injection therapy (sclerotherapy) can be used to reduce or remove unsightly superficial veins on your hands. What Will My Hand Rejuvenation Recovery Be Like? Recovery from your hand rejuvenation procedure will depend on the treatments performed. Many patients undergo non-surgical procedures and can return to their daily routines within one to two days. Our board-certified cosmetic surgeons provide all of their patients with their cell phone numbers so that they can be reached at any time during your recovery. Is Hand Rejuvenation Painful? Most hand rejuvenation procedures are non-surgical and use a topical or local anesthetic to reduce any discomfort during the treatment. Some discomfort may develop following treatment and can usually be alleviated with over-the-counter pain medication. Your doctor will inform you about any particular modifications needed for your day-to-day activities. Will My Hand Rejuvenation Leave Scars? Hand rejuvenation is not likely to leave any scars. Most treatments are either laser-based or injectable. Therefore, no incisions will be made. If you undergo fat grafting, you will have a small scar at the liposuction incision site where the fat was harvested from. This will be small and should fade with time. There should be no scars on the hands. What Does Hand Rejuvenation Cost in New York? The cost of your hand rejuvenation treatment in New York will vary depending on the techniques used and the combination of procedures needed. You will be provided with a personalized cost estimate during your consultation once your cosmetic surgeon has developed a treatment plan. We offer financing options through CareCredit® to assist you in paying for your hand rejuvenation treatment in New York. How can I determine which hand rejuvenation technique is right for me? The right technique/combination of techniques will depend on your specific concerns. The treatment plan will look very different for someone who only wants to address volume loss versus someone who wants to address volume loss and correct pigment irregularities. You will gain a better idea of what you can expect after consulting with one of our board-certified cosmetic surgeons. When will I see my hand rejuvenation results? Depending on the techniques used, you may start to see your results immediately. However, with most of these treatments, it does take up to a couple of weeks for the full results to show. This process will be gradual. How should I prepare for my treatment? We will go through any pretreatment steps with you prior to your hand rejuvenation. Each hand rejuvenation treatment will be different from patient to patient. What are the risks associated with hand rejuvenation? The risks involved in your hand rejuvenation will depend on the individual treatments performed. Patients experiencing any unusual or concerning symptoms are advised to call their surgeon at New Look New Life immediately. Are my hand rejuvenation results permanent? Depending on the treatments involved in your hand rejuvenation, you may begin seeing results as soon as your procedure is completed. While treatments such as fillers or fat grafting will often provide immediate benefits, others — such as Ultherapy® or Asclera — may take some time before final results are noticeable. Many treatments will provide you with long-lasting results, but if you notice the signs of aging return as you get older, you may choose to return for additional touch-up treatments.
