Aging is not a single concern, and the most effective anti-aging strategies don’t rely on a single treatment. Facial structure, skin quality, and collagen production all change over time. At Ablavsky Plastic Surgery’s Athena Med Spa, our patients benefit from customized anti-aging plans that combine advanced aesthetic treatments with medical-grade skin care and wellness support.
Our med spa team takes a comprehensive, physician-guided approach designed to restore structure, stimulate collagen, and support long-term skin health.
In this post, we’ll look at some of the top nonsurgical treatments we use to help you age gracefully.
RADIESSE®: Structural Support + Collagen Stimulation
As we age, bone structure and deep facial support gradually diminish. RADIESSE is uniquely designed to address this structural loss. Unlike hyaluronic acid-based fillers that focus solely on volume, RADIESSE is a calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA)–based dermal filler that provides immediate lift and stimulates your body’s natural collagen production.
Patients often choose RADIESSE to:
- Rebuild cheek and jawline structure
- Improve facial definition
- Achieve longer-lasting, natural-looking results
Because it works on both structure and collagen, RADIESSE is an excellent foundation treatment in a comprehensive anti-aging plan.
Sculptra®: Gradual, Natural Volume Restoration
Where RADIESSE provides immediate structural support that evolves over time, Sculptra works more gradually. This collagen-stimulating injectable rebuilds volume progressively, making it ideal for patients who want subtle, incremental improvement.
Sculptra helps:
- Restore facial fullness naturally
- Improve skin thickness and firmness
- Support long-term anti-aging results
Many patients appreciate that Sculptra gradually enhances the face, allowing results to develop in a way that looks entirely natural.
Microneedling: Skin Renewal & Tightening
Healthy skin quality is just as important as facial structure. Microneedling stimulates collagen and elastin production by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering natural repair.
Microneedling is commonly used to:
- Improve skin texture and tone
- Reduce fine lines and acne scars
- Enhance skin radiance
It also pairs well with injectables and skincare products, helping the skin look smoother and more resilient. Our med spa offers both Genius RF (radiofrequency) and SkinPen® microneedling treatments.
CO2 Laser: Advanced Skin Rejuvenation
For patients with more advanced signs of aging, sun damage, or wrinkles, CO2 laser resurfacing offers deeper rejuvenation. This treatment tightens and smooths the skin while encouraging deep collagen remodeling.
A CO2 laser treatment can:
- Improve wrinkles and sun damage
- Tighten lax skin
- Create more even tone and texture
While recovery is longer than less aggressive treatments, the results can be transformative when included in a long-term plan.
Medical-Grade Skincare Products: Maintain Results at Home
In-office treatments work best when supported by the right skin care. Medical-grade skincare products help maintain results, protect the skin barrier, and slow future aging.
Customized skincare plans can:
- Improve overall skin health
- Enhance and extend treatment results
- Address concerns like pigmentation, dryness, and sensitivity
Your skin’s needs change over time, and your skincare routine should evolve with it.
NAD+ IV Drip Therapy: Supporting Anti-Aging From Within
True rejuvenation isn’t only skin deep. NAD+ IV therapy may support cellular repair, energy production, and mental clarity—benefits that complement aesthetic treatments.
Patients often choose NAD+ IV therapy to:
- Increase energy and focus
- Support overall wellness and longevity
- Enhance the results of anti-aging treatments
This inside-out approach helps patients feel as good as they look. We often combine IV therapy with CO2 laser skin resurfacing or microneedling.
Why Combining Treatments Works Best
No single treatment addresses every aspect of aging. By combining treatments, Dr. Ablavsky’s team creates personalized plans that take into account your skin type, facial anatomy, lifestyle, and goals. Whether you’re focused on prevention, correction, or maintenance, a personalized strategy yields more balanced and longer-lasting results.
