Understanding Anti-Aging: What It Is and How NYPAM Can Help You Look and Feel Your Best
Aging is inevitable—but how we age is something we can influence. At New York Physical & Aesthetic Medicine (NYPAM) in Hauppauge, we specialize in holistic, science-backed anti-aging treatments that combine advanced medical aesthetics with internal wellness protocols. Our goal is to help you not only look better but feel better from the inside out.
Through personalized, medically guided plans, we target both the visible signs of aging and the underlying factors that contribute to it, such as inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, hormone imbalances, and metabolic slowdown.
What Causes Skin and Body to Age?
As we age, the body undergoes natural changes that can affect everything from skin tone and texture to metabolism, mental sharpness, and joint mobility. These shifts are caused by a combination of intrinsic and external factors, including:
- Collagen and elastin breakdown – Skin loses its firmness and elasticity over time, causing sagging and fine lines.
- UV exposure – Cumulative sun damage leads to wrinkles, sun spots, and uneven pigmentation.
- Pollution and oxidative stress – Free radicals from the environment and poor lifestyle habits can accelerate skin aging.
- Hormonal changes – Estrogen, testosterone, and other hormone levels decline with age, impacting everything from skin moisture to fat distribution and mood.
- Facial volume loss – Fat pads under the skin shift, leading to hollow cheeks, under-eye bags, and jowls.
- Slower metabolism and mitochondrial aging – Energy levels drop, fat becomes harder to lose, and mental fog becomes more common.
Concerns We Commonly Treat
At NYPAM, our patients come to us for a range of age-related concerns including:
- Fine lines, wrinkles, and crepey skin
- Volume loss in the cheeks, lips, jawline, chin, under-eyes, and temples
- Uneven skin tone and sun damage
- Brain fog, fatigue, and low energy
- Hair thinning and hormonal hair loss
- Joint discomfort or loss of mobility
- Metabolic slowdown and stubborn weight gain
- Dull skin and poor texture
- Cellular inflammation and oxidative stress
Our Comprehensive Anti-Aging Solutions
We combine the best of aesthetic medicine and functional wellness to create treatment plans that are as unique as you are.
🔹 Neuromodulators (Botox® and Dysport®)
These injectable wrinkle relaxers smooth dynamic lines caused by facial expressions, such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines. They can also be used preventatively in your 20s and 30s to slow the formation of deeper creases.
🕒 Lasts 3–4 months | ⏱ Minimal downtime
🔹 Dermal Fillers
Our fillers restore volume and structure to key facial areas—cheeks, lips, chin, jawline, temples, and under-eyes—for a more lifted, refreshed appearance. Dr. Herrera does not use fillers in the hands but focuses exclusively on facial harmonization.
✨ Immediate results | 📆 6–18 month duration depending on product
🔹 Peptide Therapy & Supplementation
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that signal the body to repair, regenerate, and optimize performance. We use them to support:
- Fat loss and metabolic efficiency
- Muscle preservation
- Improved sleep, recovery, and hormone balance
- Skin firmness and elasticity
Paired with targeted supplements, peptide therapy supports long-term anti-aging from within.
🔹 Vitamin B12 & MIC Injections (Lipo Shots)
These weekly injections combine B12 with Methionine, Inositol, and Choline to boost energy, enhance metabolism, and promote fat burning. Ideal for patients experiencing low energy, brain fog, or weight loss plateaus.
🔹 Brain Function & Focus Support
We offer protocols that include citicoline, adaptogenic herbs, and neuroprotective nutrients to help patients struggling with memory, attention, or burnout. These can be delivered via supplement plans, IV infusions, or lifestyle coaching.
🔹 Nordlys Skin Resurfacing (IPL & Frax)
Our Nordlys platform combines IPL for pigmentation and redness with Frax 1550 for collagen remodeling. It treats:
- Age spots and sun damage
- Broken capillaries and rosacea
- Fine lines and texture
- Post-acne scarring
Non-invasive, with minimal downtime and long-term results.
🔹 Alma TED Hair Restoration
TED uses sound wave-based technology to deliver growth factors and peptides into the scalp—stimulating stronger, denser hair without needles. For best results, we recommend pairing it with Nutrafol supplements to address hair loss at the root cause (hormones, stress, nutrient deficiencies).
🔹 IV Infusion Therapy
Our curated vitamin drips support collagen production, detoxification, immune function, and energy metabolism. Key ingredients include:
- Vitamin C
- Glutathione
- NAD+
- Biotin
- B-complex blends
These infusions are especially helpful for patients feeling run down or recovering from illness or high stress.
🔹 Joint Health & Regenerative Medicine
We support joint function and mobility through regenerative therapies that encourage tissue repair without steroids or surgery. This may include:
- Biostimulants (like PRP)
- Physical therapy and exercise protocols
- Anti-inflammatory nutrition and supplements
This approach is ideal for older adults looking to remain active without relying on painkillers.
🔹 Microneedling with Radiofrequency (RF)
RF microneedling is a skin-tightening treatment that stimulates collagen remodeling deep in the dermis. It’s especially effective for laxity, fine lines, acne scarring, and uneven skin tone.
Note: While highly effective for skin texture and firmness, RF microneedling and fillers are not used for hand rejuvenation at our clinic. Dr. Herrera focuses on safe, face-specific applications.
