Problematic Skin Concerns

The top three issues we encounter with the skin are wrinkles/fine lines, lack of volume, and acne/dullness.

  1. Wrinkles & Fine Lines: As we age, so does our skin. Wrinkles, fine lines, and crêpy skin are a natural part of that process. Wrinkles are most prominent on sun-exposed skin, such as the face, neck, and hands. They can also result from a lack of moisture, excessive weight loss, or any combination of these.
  2. Lack of Volume: Saggy skin on both the face and body is often associated with the loss of fat although it can also be attributed to the deterioration or reduction of elastin in the dermis. While this can affect anyone, it’s more likely to occur in people as they age.
  3. Acne & Dullness: Acne develops when sebum (oil) and dead skin cells clog hair follicles. Bacteria can trigger inflammation and infection resulting in more severe acne. Dull skin is skin that doesn’t look bright or radiant—in fact, it may appear lackluster and flat.

Lift, Sculpt & Shape Non-Surgically

Non-invasive treatments are the best alternate option for someone who needs a shorter healing time and minimal down-time. So here are our top 10 non-invasive treatments:


1) Ultherapy

Ultherapy is the only FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure that lifts the neck, chin, and brow, and improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. Through ultrasound imaging with Ultherapy, energy is delivered precisely to the place where it will benefit you most for natural-looking results that improve over time.


  • Benefits: Lifts and tones loose or sagging skin without any downtime after 1-2 sessions.
  • Ideal Candidate: Anyone who wishes to improve his/her skin elasticity.
  • About the Procedure: This treatment lasts about 30-60 minutes and is mildly uncomfortable.

2) Thermismooth

Thermismooth® Face is performed by using radio frequency energy and a temperature-controlled hand piece. It’s a good option to help with crêpy skin.


  • Benefits: Lifts and tightens skin non-surgically, without downtime.
  • Ideal Candidate: For all skin types and tones.
  • About the Procedure: By using small, circular motions, your provider will gently roll the hand piece on the surface of your skin, while heating targeted tissues below your skin. Patients often say it feels like a warm massage.

3) Fraxel Laser – Clear & Brilliant, Restore

Fraxel Laser is a fast, non-surgical, no downtime method that repairs damaged skin and can treat a number of issues from hyperpigmentation to scars to wrinkles to sun damage.


  • Benefits: Reduces age spots, actinic keratoses, irregular texture of the skin, surgical scars, sun damage, acne scars, skin pigmentation, wrinkles near the eyes, and even melasma.
  • Ideal Candidate: Men and women of all ages. Can be better suited for those with fair, olive, or tan skin.
  • About the Procedure: The Fraxel laser reaches deep into the skin’s second layer, the dermis, and stimulates the body’s restorative abilities, as well as its production of new collagen.

4) Smoothbeam (Manhattan Office) / Sciton Acne (Great Neck Office)

Smoothbeam is the first laser treatment designed to target acne at the root of the problem: the overactive sebaceous glands. Sciton Acne treatment is a light treatment that helps with P acne bacteria. Smoothbeam, like Sciton Acne treatment, affects P acne bacteria, but also works to smooth out acne scars that are left behind. A few treatments will actually help kill PFE bacteria as well.


  • Benefits: Treats acne and oily skin, improve acne scars and increase collagen production.
  • Ideal Candidate: Those who suffer from acne and oily skin as a result of overactive sebaceous glands. It can also be used to improve post-acne scarring. Should not be used on darker skin tones.
  • About the Procedure: A gentle laser stimulates the formation of new collagen just beneath the surface of your skin. A Cooling Device is used to spray the skin with a fine mist of cryogen before, during, and after the laser pulse, which cools and protects the surface of your skin.

5) Hydrafacial

Hydrafacial® is the world’s leading advanced non-laser skin care system that is making strides in skincare. Hydrafacial treatments are like intensive facials that force hydration into the skin, and provide exfoliation. And they’re relaxing at the same time!


  • Benefits: Beautifying yet luxurious treatment improves the texture & tone of your skin, and works to rejuvenate & hydrate the skin. Also treats fine lines & wrinkles, congested pores, excess oils, dark spots and acne.
  • Ideal Candidate: Will work with all skin types
  • About the Treatment: Patented 4 in 1 vortex technology works to cleanse, exfoliate, extract and infuse your skin to render an amazing glow and smooth, baby soft skin.


6) Chemical Peel

In this skin-resurfacing procedure, a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove the top layers. Chemical peels help to unstick the glue that holds the skin together. The skin that grows back after a chemical peel is smoother and younger looking.

  • Benefits: Improves skin color, clarity, tone and texture. Can treat wrinkles, skin discoloration, and scars.
  • Ideal Candidate: Generally good for all candidates. Depths of the peel depend on skin tones.
  • About the Procedure: Peeling will generally start 48-72 hours after your treatment and can last 2-5 days. It is very important not to pick off peeling skin; peeling is minimal and easily controlled with moisturizer.


7) Forever Young BBL Photofacial (Manhattan Office)

BBL Photofacial is a corrective phototherapy treatment that uses Broadband Light (BBL) to target signs of aging, sun damage, and other skin conditions including age spots (liver spots), redness, broken facial vessels, wrinkles, dull skin, and rosacea. It can also reduce the appearance of freckles and birthmarks.

  • Benefits: Restores skin to its natural beauty, making it clearer, smoother, and more vibrant.
  • Ideal Candidate: Treatment can only be performed on skin types 1-3.
  • About the Procedure: A slight warming of the skin and mild discomfort during treatment may be felt. After BBL Photofacial, skin may appear slightly red and swollen.

8) Microneedling with PRP

Microneedling with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a cosmetic treatment that’s particularly used to minimize the signs of aging. It uses your own collagen to help peel the skin.

  • Benefits: Stimulates the production of collagen and reduces active acne or acne scarring. Good for reducing wrinkles and fine lines. Results from skin needling typically last one to three months, while results from PRP typically last 12 months.
  • Ideal Candidate: Most patients are good candidates for this type of the procedure, with few contraindications to treatment existing.
  • About the Procedure: Microneedling is also known as collagen induction therapy or percutaneous collagen induction. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is given as an injection or topically.


9) Cosmetic Treatments & Neuromodulators (Botox)

Injectables are treatments that can be done any time of the year. Some injectables are categorized as Neuromodulators, starting with Botox®. Aristocrat also carries Dysport®, Xeomin®, and Jeuveau®. They all have similar effects: stopping the muscles from moving, such as in the forehead and crows feet.

Injectable Cosmetic Treatments

  • Benefits: Injectable cosmetic treatments help reverse many of the signs of aging. Injectables like Botox and dermal fillers have become powerful and safe non-invasive procedures that help address common issues that make many clients nervous. Xeomin and Jeuveau have less filler content and are more popular with younger clients.
  • Ideal Candidate: Most men and women who want to look more youthful and vital are good candidates for non-invasive treatments.
  • About the Procedure: A series of tiny injections are given to areas in need of improvement such as eyebrows, crows feet, bunny or nasalizes lines, dimpled chin, platysmal bands under the chin, forehead lines, frown or glabellar lines, and corners of the mouth.


10) Injectable Fillers

There are a lot of choices for fillers, and different fillers are used in different areas to give you more volume and provide more collagen.

  • Benefits: Injectable fillers consist of a number of products we carry at Aristocrat: Juvederm, Restalayne, Revanesse Versa, Sculptra Aesthetic, Bellafill, and Radiesse cosmetic fillers help reverse many of the signs of aging.
  • Ideal Candidate: Most women who want to look more youthful and vital are good candidates for non-invasive treatments.
  • About the Treatments: Areas on the face that can be addressed by injectable fillers are brow droop, crows feet, cheek definition, nasolabial folds, vertical lip lines, marionette lines/jowls, forehead lines, frown lines, tear troughs, bunny lines, mouth frown, lip border and volume, and crease lines under the lower lip.
