East Brunswick Medical Spa Brings Skin Rejuvenation To Our Area

In a world full of invasive cosmetic procedures, medical aesthetic practice IVIV Health and Aesthetics is offering rejuvenation and a return to youthful glow -- without the scalpel.

The practice, one of the first in central New Jersey to offer rejuvenation treatments under the supervision of a triple-board-certified doctor, is adding new treatments such as Botox and Juvederm, and sexual wellness treatments to its selection of services, plus a new nurse practitioner, Dr. Aleksandra Novik, to help support IVIV Health and Aesthetics’ growing service list.

“Clients will have an affirming, relaxing, and rejuvenating experience under Dr. Novik’s care at the medical spa,” said Dr. Tanya Weissman, founder and lead practitioner of IVIV. “She listens to every client with patience and understanding, and clients feel comfortable and confident with her guidance.”

IVIV Health and Aesthetics employs a staff comprised entirely of nurses, nurse practitioners and doctors to perform all treatments offered at the practice. From the moment a client walks in, they can expect a medical professional to walk them through the treatment options in a comfortable environment. The client and staff discuss desired outcome alongside medical history and other key medical questions. The medical professional then presents the treatment options best suited to the client.

“Clients are comfortable knowing that they are in the hands of a nurse practitioner and a doctor,” Weissman said. “We take great care to attend to the client’s every need – most importantly, their health and safety.”

Botox, Juvederm, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP)-based sexual wellness treatments join a host of rejuvenation treatments offered at IVIV Health and Aesthetics, including vitamin drips, IV hydration, and PRP aesthetic treatments such as hair regrowth and facials, all under the supervision of a licensed medical professional such as Weissman, Novik, or a fellow nurse or nurse practitioner. Most procedures take an hour or less and are conducted without the use of anesthesia; clients can return to work right away and can take themselves to and from all procedures.

Weissman has years of experience working with PRP, a regenerative method that uses the body’s own plasma, spun from a vial of the client’s blood, to stimulate the rush of platelets to a site of injury to stimulate healing.

“With regenerative treatments, the body uses its own resources to heal itself by engaging and enhancing its natural healing processes,” said Weissman. “Whenever the body detects injury, platelets rush to the site to help facilitate the healing process. Platelet-rich plasma is full of those same growth factors that enable your body to regenerate using its own characteristics, making it an excellent option to alleviate the appearance of scarring and reviving skin for a youthful, refreshed look.”

IVIV Health and Aesthetics’ newly offered sexual wellness treatments for men and women use PRP rejuvenation to enhance blood flow to the genital area. Sexual wellness treatments can help clients achieve better performance, sensitivity, and satisfaction with minimal risk of side effects and without the need to take pharmaceuticals to enhance sexual experience. For women, sexual wellness treatments can help counter the incontinence experienced by some after giving birth.

Botox and Juvederm are among the practice’s non-PRP treatments. Weissman said that she chose to begin offering dermal fillers and Botox to give clients a lower-risk, minimally-invasive cosmetic enhancement method option, popular for countering fine lines, wrinkles, and crow’s feet. Weissman also said that Botox is useful for combating hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) and chronic migraines.

“The sexual wellness treatments and Botox treatments can help address and alleviate many problems that have a negative effect on a client’s daily life,” said Weissman, whom NJ TopDocs named as a 2019 Top Doctor.

For Weissman, PRP aesthetic treatments aren’t just about helping clients achieve a youthful, rejuvenated look. It’s about helping clients be the best version of themselves under the care of a thoroughly-vetted and dedicated medical professional, and without resorting to surgeries or other painful and invasive procedures.

“While risk is very minimal with these procedures, clients feel reassured by IVIV’s use of nurses and nurse practitioners, who are fully trained in the protocol required for these treatments,” Weissman said. “We take a physician-first approach to all cosmetic treatments offered at our practice because we want our clients to know that their health and safety is our priority.”
