Dr. Weiss analyzes your face during your consultation. This analysis, combined with your input on what you would like to see changed, informs Dr. Weiss’s personalized treatment recommendation.
Ideal Candidates
Non-surgical facial and skincare treatments are suitable for adults who want visible skin improvement without incisions or extended downtime. These options address concerns such as fine lines, uneven tone, sun damage, texture changes, and mild volume loss, making them a practical choice if you prefer gradual, natural-looking results.
These treatments also work well for those with busy schedules or who want to maintain results after facial surgery. Injectables, laser and energy-based treatments, resurfacing, and medical-grade skincare can be used alone or together based on your skin needs. During your consultation, your provider will review your goals and skin condition to recommend appropriate options.
Why non-surgical treatments
Non-surgical options are popular because they are less invasive and fit easily into busy schedules. Most treatments allow you to return to normal activities quickly while addressing multiple skin concerns. These treatments can also complement surgical procedures by helping maintain results, while surgery may be discussed if concerns are more advanced or structural.
What to Expect During the Treatment
Consultation
During your consultation, Dr. Weiss begins with a detailed skin analysis to evaluate texture, tone, volume, and overall skin quality. You will discuss your concerns and goals, including which areas you would like to improve and the level of change you are seeking. Based on this assessment, a personalized treatment plan is created that outlines recommended non-surgical options, timing, and next steps.
Injectables
Injectable treatments involve placing neuromodulators or dermal fillers beneath the skin using a fine needle or cannula. Before treatment, Dr. Weiss reviews facial movement, volume changes, and skin condition to determine precise placement. The injections themselves typically take 15 to 30 minutes, and most patients feel brief pressure or mild pinching.
Neuromodulators such as BOTOX Cosmetic, Dysport, Xeomin, and Jeuveau work by relaxing targeted muscles that cause expression-related wrinkles. Dermal fillers like JUVÉDERM, Restylane, Radiess, and Sculptra are used to restore volume, improve contour, and support facial structure. Results may appear gradually or within days, depending on the product used, with little to no downtime.
Non-surgical face and skin treatments
Non-surgical face and skin treatments use controlled energy, microneedling, or resurfacing techniques to improve skin texture, tone, and firmness. During treatment, the skin is cleansed and prepared, and topical numbing may be applied for comfort. Sessions usually last 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the procedure and treatment area.
Treatments such as laser skin resurfacing, RF microneedling, ThermiTight, ThermiSmooth, and SkinPen® target deeper skin layers to stimulate collagen production and improve tissue quality. You may experience warmth, pressure, or tingling during treatment, followed by temporary redness or swelling. Results often develop gradually as the skin responds.
Skin care
Professional skin care treatments focus on improving the outer layers of the skin while supporting overall skin health. These treatments are typically gentle and performed without anesthesia. Sessions often begin with cleansing and exfoliation, followed by targeted treatments based on skin type and concerns.
Options such as HydraFacial, chemical peels, and dermaplaning help improve clarity, smoothness, and hydration. Some treatments provide immediate improvement, while others involve light peeling or flaking over several days. Skin care treatments are often recommended as routine maintenance or to support results from injectables and energy-based procedures.
Recovery and Results
When you will see results
In general, results of these types of treatments take shape quickly. You should see results with injectables the next day, with the peak arriving a week or two later. For some other procedures, such as ThermiTight® and ThermiSmooth®, it may take 3-6 months to achieve your best results. Once we have a chance to discuss your specific treatment plan during a consultation, we’ll make sure you know what to expect.
Maintaining your results
Good-looking skin isn’t a one-and-done approach. We know you’ll love the look you can get with these non-surgical facial treatments, but it’s important to nurture them with these commonsense habits:
- Apply an SPF-rated face cream, tinted moisturizer, or foundation daily.
- Apply sunblock if you’re outdoors all day, such as on a weekend outing with your family.
- Use a wide-brimmed hat to protect your face and neck from the sun.
- Hydrate from the inside, out: drink plenty of water.
- Avoid excess consumption of alcohol, sugar, and processed foods.
- Don’t smoke! It’s bad for your whole body and leads to premature aging.
While non-invasive treatments offer temporary results, you can help them last longer by following the tips above, which also promote long-term youthful skin.
Exposure to ultraviolet light from the sun is responsible for as much as 90 percent of visible changes to your skin as the years pass, so sun protection is paramount to preventing photodamage like deep lines, brown spots, dullness, and redness. Not only will this promote healthy, glowing skin, but it will also reduce your risk of skin cancer. Remember to wear sunblock and SPF-rated moisturizers, and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
Before & after/patient stories
Before-and-after photos highlight real results from non-surgical treatments, showing improvements in skin texture, tone, and facial balance. Patient stories often note satisfaction with natural-looking outcomes, minimal downtime, and the convenience of receiving care locally.
Advantages of Minimally Invasive Procedures
Across the country, the number of minimally invasive cosmetic treatments performed annually continues to grow. They are popular, and with good reason. Some of their many advantages include:
- No incisions, no sutures, no surgery.
- Minimal to no downtime.
- Get back to work and normal activities quickly.
- No scars because no incisions are made.
- Temporary results mean you can try out different treatments after the previous results fade.
Of course, the only way to know if they will benefit you as an individual is to consult Dr. Weiss. He wants each of his patients to enjoy great results.
Cost of Non-Surgical Treatments
The cost of non-surgical facial and skin treatments varies based on the type of procedure, the areas treated, and whether a series of sessions is recommended. Injectables are often priced per unit or syringe, while treatments such as laser resurfacing, RF microneedling, and skin resurfacing may be priced per session. Because each treatment plan is based on your skin condition and goals, exact pricing is discussed during your consultation.
During your visit, we will review recommended options, expected treatment frequency, and any maintenance that may be helpful over time. Be sure to ask about our current specials during your initial consultation. The goal of the consultation is to provide clear information so you can plan treatment with realistic expectations and no surprises.

Our approach to skin & non-surgical rejuvenation
Non-surgical care is led by Sean Weiss, MD, FACS, a fellowship-trained, double board-certified facial plastic surgeon with advanced expertise in facial anatomy and safety. Unlike med-spa settings, treatments are planned with surgical-level insight, including careful evaluation of structure, balance, and tissue response. This surgeon-led approach supports consistent standards of care and thoughtful treatment decisions.
Each patient receives an individualized plan rather than a one-size approach. Injectables, laser and energy-based treatments, resurfacing, and skin care may be combined based on your skin condition, goals, and daily routine. The focus is on using proven brands and technologies in a measured way that supports natural facial movement and skin quality.
This approach is well-suited for busy professionals who want effective non-surgical options with minimal downtime. Ongoing follow-up and maintenance planning are emphasized, with skin care viewed as a long-term investment rather than short-term fixes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can non-surgical treatments also help with acne and acne scars?
Acne and its resulting scars are other common cosmetic concerns that can be treated with non-surgical therapies. For hypertrophic (raised) acne scars or keloids, we may recommend laser skin resurfacing or a topical solution. For atrophic (indented) acne scars, we can use dermaplaning, microneedling, dermal filler injections, or another option, depending on the scars’ severity.
An active acne breakout requires even more specialized care. In this case, many patients have experienced significant benefits from chemical peels.
Can I combine injectables?
While we generally cannot use two different formulas in the same location at the same time, they can sometimes be applied in separate areas of the face. For instance, we might decide on Juvederm to plump up the cheeks while also administering BOTOX for forehead wrinkle reduction.
When is facial plastic surgery the better option?
Non-surgical cosmetic treatments are well-suited for patients with mild to moderate symptoms who are looking for flexibility in their care. For more severe cases of skin laxity and significant structural alterations, Dr. Weiss offers a variety of facial plastic surgery procedures with long-lasting results, including facelift, neck lift, brow (forehead) lift, eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty (nose job), and more.
Are results from non-surgical treatments immediate or gradual?
Some treatments show visible improvement shortly after the visit, while others take several weeks to develop. Collagen-related changes often appear gradually.
Can non-surgical treatments fix sagging skin?
Non-surgical treatments can improve mild skin laxity and texture. Surgery may be discussed if there is more advanced sagging or structural change.
How long do results typically last?
The length of results varies by treatment type and individual response. Maintenance treatments are often recommended to help sustain results.
