More info:

Acupuncture works by inserting sterile, hair-thin needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the flow of Qi (vital energy), activate the nervous system, and release endorphins. This improves circulation, reduces inflammation, balances hormones, and calms the stress response—restoring the body to a state of harmony and optimal function.

What our Patients Say About Us

“I’ve been going to Dr. Kay for five years, and the results have been truly life-changing. From fillers (under-eye, jawline, cheeks, lips, temples, chin) to PRP for my scalp and breast augmentation scars, every treatment has been natural, subtle, and customized to my face. As an actress, it's essential my expressions stay intact—at 33, people are shocked I’ve had work done. Dr. Kay is truly the best—her techniques, precision, and global expertise set the standard. Yes, she may be more expensive, but it's worth every penny when it’s your face. I’ve never had to dissolve anything, and my confidence has never been higher. 💖💖”

“Dr. Kay is the absolute best, and her staff is always so warm and welcoming. I always have a great experience at every appointment. I love that Dr. Kay offers specials each month, and her Stay with Kay program is a no brainer especially if you are dedicated to routine Botox and overall maintenance. Her skincare products are also awesome. I use the Vit. C Serum, Deep Blue Hydration., and Neck Firming Therapy cream. Dr. Kay's work is flawless, and I always get so many compliments after my visits with her. She is such a sweetheart and so is her manager Carmen and the rest of the staff. Highly recommend!!”

“Dr. Kay is truly exceptional! I’ve been a follower on Instagram, admiring her work, and I finally had the opportunity to experience it firsthand. Her products and services are top-notch. Personally, I underwent a nose job as a teen, and unfortunately, the initial results left me feeling insecure. Thanks to Dr. Kay’s renowned liquid Rhinoplasty, she transformed my nose into my dream look in just 20 minutes! I’m incredibly thrilled with the results, and her supportive staff only adds to the positive experience. My confidence has seen a significant boost. Without a doubt, I highly recommend Dr. Kay!”

“I participated in a Radiesse study for lower face balancing for Dr. Kay’s Modern Aesthetic Theory.
I always appreciate Dr. Kay’s direct communication, professionalism and expertise. I also had her address some changes in under eye filler that I had and wasn’t happy with. You never want to go just anywhere with regard to aesthetics and under eyes. I did wait a while longer than I expected to be seen, however, overall I’m happy with the results. Subtle, and natural.”

“I have been treated by Dr. Kay for the last 8 months doing a Sculptra study.
I had previously been using fillers to help with what I thought was volume loss throughout my face. With this one Sculptra study, Dr. Kay has essentially given me a face lift without using any fillers or adding volume to my face. I trust Dr. Kay and her staff to keep me looking my best without changing my overall look. I’m incredibly happy with my services!.”
