Do skin imperfections have you feeling self conscious? Are you unhappy with the appearance of enlarged pores, aging signs, or hyperpigmentation? Common skin concerns and the negative signs of aging, but just because it is common doesn’t mean that you have to deal with it any longer. With specialized Aquagold microneedling treatments, you can renew the look and feel of your skin for a restored and vibrant glow.
Aquagold Skin Boosting
What is AQUAGOLD Fine Touch?
Aquagold is a unique mesotherapy technique that is designed to deliver nourishing botanicals and bioactive compounds deep within your skin. Treatments work to infuse beneficial formulas composed of neuromodulators, hyaluronic acid, and other essential nutrients to the superficial layers of your skin. This revitalizing remedy provides the substances needed to improve skin hydration, reduce pore size, and improve the texture and feel of your skin. It is an injectable solution that is non invasive and painless with results that speak for themselves.
How Does AQUAGOLD Fine Touch Work?
Treatments are performed using a personalized Aquagold formulation that best addresses your specific needs. The nourishing substance is delivered under the dermis layer of skin using a tiny needle injection. The patented micro channeling technology works to penetrate deep within the tissue to activate regeneration and hydration.
The bioactive ingredients complete the task of addressing and improving the appearance of your skin concern, while also preventing further concerns from developing in the future. This is a quick solution with treatment times typically lasting about ten minutes, with results that can be visible within 5-7 days. Results for hydrated and radiant skin typically last up to 6 months following. This skin-boosting remedy incorporates the revitalizing ingredients necessary for achieving a healthy glow that lasts.
Who is an AQUAGOLD Fine Touch Candidate?
For anyone who is experiencing the appearance of common skin concerns, you could qualify as a candidate for AQUAGOLD Fine Touch treatments. If you are looking for a reliable solution for improving the look and hydration of your skin, you could benefit from treatments. If you are looking to improve hyperpigmentation, aging signs, enlarged pores, or uneven texture, you could also benefit from treatments.

One of the most common and problematic areas to treat on the face is the zygomatic fat pad. This is the region between the lower eyelid and the cheekbone.
This area is generally unreachable by surgical intervention and we want to avoid injectables in that region because they can potentially make the area protrude out more.
In the past, we have attempted several treatments of microneedling and heat based devices to improve the area, with limited success.
Through the use of fractional micro-coring, we are able extract portions of the skin minimally invasively, with more effectiveness and less scarring.
We are continuing to see incredible results with the Ellacor technology, any part of the face and body, including severe wrinkles in the mid to lower face, jowls, the area under the neck, the abdomen, elbows, and knees.

We’re wrapping up the season with a special solo episode.
In this final episode, I break down the biggest shifts in aesthetic medicine in 2025 and what I believe is coming next in 2026, from injectable awakenings to surgical hype and the rise of regenerative medicine.
𝐖𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐞𝐝-𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫, 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠:
✨ The rise of “filler fear” and why injectables still have a place when used responsibly
✨ The year of celebrity surgery and the deep plane facelift hype, plus why technique and timing matter
✨ Regenerative medicine and peptides, what’s promising, what’s over-marketed, and what needs more data
✨ Why the next 5 to 10 years will be the decade of maintenance, with lasers, resurfacing, and injectable-sparing technologies
✨ Why fat is poised to be the next major focus, and the resurgence of microfat and nanofat for regenerative results
To close, I share what I’m watching for 2026 and beyond as aesthetics continues moving toward smarter, safer, more natural pro-aging outcomes.
Thank you for listening all year. Your support is what makes this podcast possible. Here’s to a strong finish to 2025 and an even better 2026. 🥂

After losing 50 pounds postpartum, this patient experienced significant facial volume loss that changed the overall shape of her face. With strategic, anatomically precise injectable fillers, we softened her squarish contours and restored harmony, proportion, and beauty to her features.
This is the power of undetectable injectables. When used correctly, small amounts of filler in the right places can reintroduce youthful structure without ever looking filled or altered. It’s about restoring what was lost, not creating something new.

The art of injectables is not about looking different. It’s about elevating your appearance with expert technique and subtle, strategic placement. At PFRANKMD, we specialize in undetectable injectables that refresh without revealing you’ve had anything done.
At PFRANKMD, we treat faces, not features. It’s never about the one area you point to in the mirror. It’s about how everything works together.
People often ask where I prioritize injectable treatments on the face, and my answer is always the same: everywhere. I don’t treat isolated regions like lips, eyes, cheekbones, chins, or earlobes. I take a global, full-face approach that creates harmony, balance, and longevity.
Small amounts placed strategically in multiple areas and frequent minor touch-ups remain the core of my philosophy. This is how we achieve undetectable injectables, not the overdone, filled, or hollowed look people fear.
If you want expert, comprehensive facial rejuvenation from a practice that prioritizes artistry and safety, call (212) 327-2919 or click the link in bio to schedule a consultation.

Recovery is a journey, and the care you receive after your procedure is just as important as the surgery itself. With the right combination of lasers and injectables—timed carefully around the body’s natural healing process—we can minimize side effects, support recovery, and maximize your results for years to come.

Bruising is one of the first post-operative concerns. VBeam laser speeds bruise resolution while scars and stitches are monitored. Early intervention helps those prone to keloids or raised scars.

For procedures around the eyes or forehead, neuromodulators are introduced to relax muscle tension. This not only supports healing but also protects delicate surgical sites and enhances comfort.

By one month, most swelling has subsided, but scars are still active in the healing process. Vascular lasers such as reduce redness, broken capillaries, and pigmentation for more even healing. Broken capillaries around the ears and eyes are also commonly treated at this stage.
• 𝟐–𝟔 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐬+: 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭
Neuromodulators may be repeated in this window to further soften tension and refine results.

As swelling fully resolves, fillers refine harmony by restoring jawline definition, temple fullness, and midface support.

In the past, patients were told to wait 6–12 months before starting treatments. Today’s advanced laser and injectable technologies allow us to treat sooner—and safer—so that recovery is faster, scars heal more smoothly, and results last longer.

Simple Rules for Safe and Effective Injectable Treatments
Injectables are an essential part of cosmetic rejuvenation, but they come with common, manageable risks—like bruising. It can happen to anyone, no matter how experienced the injector or how careful the prep. To reduce the risk, avoid alcohol, pain relievers, and certain supplements like fish oil and vitamin E for 24–48 hours before treatment.
Watch this video to see for yourself: even Dr. Frank isn’t immune to post-injection bruising. It’s simply part of the process. The good news? A vascular laser like the VBeam can quickly clear it up.

WARNING: Injectable cosmetic agents, although safe and effective, do carry some health and cosmetic risks . They must be performed by experienced and licensed healthcare professionals and only after thorough consultation of the various options and their relative risks.
Listen as I discuss non-invasive cosmetic treatments, such as injectables, energy-based devices, and threads, on the ability to have successful plastic surgery in the future and the potential impact and importance of coordinating care between your cosmetic dermatologist and plastic surgeon to ensure the best possible outcomes, whether the patient decides to undergo surgery or not.

Achieving the best possible outcome from facial plastic surgery extends far beyond the operating room. Post-surgical care plays a critical role in supporting healing, enhancing results, and maintaining facial harmony over time. Immediate postoperative management focuses on controlling swelling and bruising through modalities such as lymphatic drainage, cold compresses, and, when appropriate, vascular laser treatments like VBeam. These therapies can minimize inflammation, reduce discoloration, and accelerate visible recovery.
Ensuring that incisions heal cleanly and without complications is also essential. This involves proper wound care, scar prevention strategies, and sometimes the early use of treatments like silicone gels or light-based therapy to minimize scar visibility. Neuromodulators (such as Botox or Dysport) may also be used in the early healing stages to reduce tension on healing incisions and prevent the formation of dynamic wrinkles.
As healing progresses, the focus shifts toward refinement and long-term maintenance. Cosmetic injectables—including hyaluronic acid fillers, biostimulatory agents like Sculptra, and neuromodulators—can help restore volume, smooth fine lines, and enhance surgical outcomes without the need for further invasive procedures. These treatments are especially effective in maintaining youthful contours and prolonging the benefits of surgery.
Ultimately, collaboration between a skilled facial plastic surgeon and an experienced cosmetic dermatologist ensures a 360-degree approach to rejuvenation. By combining surgical precision with advanced aesthetic maintenance, patients can enjoy natural-looking, long-lasting results that evolve beautifully over time.
