Thread lift
Thread lifts are a minimally invasive alternative to facelift surgery, using medical-grade threads like Silhouette Soft® to lift and sculpt the face while stimulating collagen production for improved skin elasticity. The procedure involves inserting dissolvable sutures with small barbs under the skin to hold and tighten tissue, delivering subtle, natural results. Ideal candidates are healthy individuals, typically in their 30s to 50s, with mild to moderate signs of aging. Dr. Espinoza customizes treatment plans for each patient.
PRP
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy rejuvenates skin by injecting plasma, rich in growth-supporting platelets, to improve complexion and stimulate collagen production. This non-invasive treatment helps even skin tone, fade acne scars, increase hydration, reduce redness, and smooth fine lines. Performed in three steps, PRP involves drawing blood, isolating plasma using a centrifuge, and injecting it into target areas. Ideal for those addressing signs of aging, PRP enhances skin elasticity, hydration, and firmness over time, delivering subtle, natural-looking results.
Hydrafacial
The Hydrafacial is a 30-minute, relaxing treatment that provides immediate improvements in skin hydration, radiance, and tone with no downtime. It addresses concerns such as fine lines, dark spots, oily skin, clogged pores, and improves skin firmness and elasticity. The process involves three steps: cleansing and exfoliating to resurface the skin, painless pore extractions followed by intense hydration, and the infusion of serums containing antioxidants and peptides to maintain results. Patients can expect hydrated, luminous, and smooth skin immediately after the treatment, with further enhancements over multiple sessions.

DermaPen
Dermapen microneedling is a popular treatment that targets wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, and stretch marks. It uses a handheld device to create tiny punctures in the skin, triggering collagen and elastin production for healthier, youthful skin. The Dermapen device vertically penetrates the skin with a vibrating motion, forming microchannels that enhance the absorption of topical nutrients by up to 80%, promoting faster skin rejuvenation and improved texture.
VirtueRF Microneedling
Using a robotic motor and radiofrequency energy, VirtueRF stimulates collagen and elastin production, addressing fine lines, wrinkles, loose skin, and scars on the face, hands, and body. This procedure combines microneedling with radiofrequency to rejuvenate the skin and includes an electro-current mask for faster healing and reduced redness. Suitable for all skin types, VirtueRF offers personalized, comfortable treatment with minimal downtime, effectively targeting acne scars, sun damage, stretch marks, and more.

Injectables
Botox
Botox is a popular cosmetic treatment used to smooth fine lines and wrinkles for a youthful appearance. Dr. Ronald Espinoza offers this injectable treatment in his Manhattan office. Botox works by using botulinum toxin type A to temporarily reduce muscle activity, preventing and softening wrinkles while maintaining natural facial expressions. Common areas treated with Botox include frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead lines, smoker’s lines, marionette lines, a gummy smile, eyebrows, chin clefts, neck creases, and facial scars.
Derma Fillers
Facial fillers are injectable treatments designed to restore lost volume and enhance natural features, offering a youthful, refreshed appearance. In NYC, dermal fillers can subtly balance facial proportions and symmetry by adding targeted volume, making them ideal for addressing age-related volume loss or naturally asymmetrical features.
Sculptra
Sculptra is a collagen-boosting injectable treatment made from poly-L-lactic acid, designed to restore lost facial volume naturally over time. Performed through a series of injections spaced 6–8 weeks apart, Sculptra stimulates collagen production, gradually replacing volume and softening deep folds or wrinkles. Ideal for addressing hollowed cheeks, cheekbones, temples, nasolabial folds, jawline, and areas around the mouth, it creates a lifted, youthful appearance without the “overdone” look. This treatment offers a natural and gradual solution to facial volume loss caused by aging.
Kybella
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that eliminates excess fat beneath the chin, improving the appearance of a double chin and enhancing jawline definition. This non-surgical option offers long-lasting results with minimal discomfort and downtime. Ideal for those over 18 with moderate submental fat and good skin quality, Kybella is not a weight loss procedure but a solution for contouring the chin area. It provides a defined jawline and slimmer chin without surgery.
