Practice self-care with the best skin services ranging from microneedling to skin workouts.
FaceGym’s treatment area
When founder Inge Theron got a procedure that left her homebound, she “decided it was time to act to create a non-invasive, zero-risk, face-lifting solution,” she writes on her website. Now hosted over Zoom, facial workouts use cutting-edge technology in procedures and skincare to lift, sculpt, tone and tighten facial muscles. The most intense workout, the Radio Frequency, focuses on sculpting and tightening by applying heat energy to give defining contours and reduce puffiness. 611 Fifth Ave., usa.facegym.com
Busy with FaceTime consultations and a limited spa reopening, Aida Bicaj applies her 20 years of skincare knowledge to a variety of services to reinvigorate skin appearance. Her microneedling treatment triggers the skin’s organic healing process to open up new collagen protein and give a revitalized look. Relying on the best tools—her eyes, hands and intuition—Bicaj focuses on therapeutic-grade products to assist her in giving customers a personalized skincare experience. 30 E. 67th St., Floor 5, aidabicaj.com

Ultra Hydration Boost from Skin Laundry
Founder Yen Reis struggled for years with face issues before creating her famous mini laser facials and working with experts in building a skincare brand. Originally from Santa Monica, Skin Laundry currently has multiple locations in New York with a sole purpose: clear, glowing skin and improved texture. The clinic uses a series of laser facials to maintain dewy skin with the treatment’s long-term benefits including stimulation of collagen and elastin production for firmer skin. The fractional laser facial minimizes discoloration, fine lines and wrinkles. 240 E. 54th St., skinlaundry.com
Internationally known dermatologist Dr. Marina Peredo opened Skinfluence to bring together her specialties of surgical, laser and aesthetic dermatology. The medical spa made a skincare line to further its ethos of anti-aging prevention along with a range of services including SecretRF, microneedling with PRP and Ultherapy. Used in conjunction with in-office skin rejuvenation procedures, the TriHex Transition Duo includes Regenerating Skin Nectar and Restorative Skin Complex for post-procedure healing and maintaining benefits afterward. 1047 Park Ave., skinfluencenyc.com
