2,900 square feet on one floor with four private treatment suites, a separate laser room with its own door and its own eyewear station, a consultation room with no treatment couch in it, a small infusion lounge, and a quiet recovery room with a chair, a blanket and no clock in it.
Three minutes' walk from the 61st Street–Woodside station — the 7 train, the Long Island Rail Road, and the Q32, Q60, Q66 and Q70 buses all stop within a block. There is metered parking on 61st Street and a short loading bay outside the door. The entrance is step-free, all four suites are on one level, and the recovery room is beside the door if you would rather sit for ten minutes before walking back out.
Room by room
What is actually in the building
Four private treatment suites
One per clinician, each with a door rather than a curtain. Every suite has its own couch, its own trolley and its own light, so nobody is treated in a corridor and nobody sits in a robe waiting for a room to free up.
A consultation room with no couch in it
A table, two chairs, a window and a mirror you hold yourself. This is the most deliberate design decision in the building: the room where you decide is not the room where you are treated, because deciding while lying down is not really deciding.
The laser room
Its own door, its own interlock, its own eyewear station and no window onto the corridor. Light-based treatment is the part of this practice that can injure somebody, so it happens in a room built for it rather than in whichever suite happens to be free.
The infusion lounge
Three recliners, a blanket each, and a clinician in the room throughout rather than looking in. An infusion takes forty minutes and nobody should spend it alone wondering whether the drip is working.
The recovery room
One chair, a blanket, a glass of water and no clock. Some people want ten minutes after a treatment before walking back out onto 61st Street, and there should be somewhere to do that which is not the waiting room.
A daylight assessment corner
North-facing, unfiltered, with a plain wall and no ring light anywhere near it. Skin is assessed in daylight because daylight is what you live in. Treatment-room lighting flatters, and flattering light is the last thing you want while deciding whether to have something done.
No manufacturer is named on this page. We have deliberately not named a single manufacturer anywhere on this page, or anywhere on this website. Device and product brands get named on clinic websites in order to borrow authority from them, and to make you shop for a machine rather than for the person operating it. The equipment here is ordinary professional kit that any practice can buy, the settings matter more than the badge, and the person choosing the settings matters most of all. Ask us in the room and we will tell you exactly what we are using and why.

A written plan and a written price before anything is booked
Book a consultation
Pick a clinician and an hour from the calendar — it shows only the times each of them genuinely has free. A consultation is a full hour at a table with no treatment couch in the room, and it costs $85, or $120 with the medical director. If you go ahead, that comes off your first treatment. If we tell you the answer is nothing, or a dermatologist, it costs exactly the same.
