About

The practice takes a conservative, individualized approach to aesthetics. Each plan looks at the face as a whole, considering structure, proportion, movement and skin quality, with the aim of keeping clients recognizably themselves while looking refreshed and balanced. Treatment usually begins with a minimal amount and builds gradually over time, with results reassessed along the way and maintenance recommended when needed rather than on a fixed schedule.

Every appointment includes a consultation and assessment. A dedicated 60-minute consultation costs $200 and is applied toward treatment if treatment is done at the same visit; it can also be booked on its own. Before an appointment, clients are asked to disclose medical conditions, medications, allergies, recent procedures and earlier aesthetic work, and they can bring records of previous treatments with products, amounts and dates. Earlier work does not necessarily need to be dissolved before new treatment. Clients are encouraged to book well ahead of weddings, trips, professional photos or other events, since neurotoxin results develop gradually and filler results can be affected by temporary swelling.

Facial balancing is an approach that may combine dermal fillers, neurotoxins, biostimulators, regenerative treatments, microneedling and microinfusion, often across several visits. Dermal fillers are offered with Juvederm and Restylane. Radiesse is priced at $1,300 per syringe and Sculptra at $1,300 per vial. Microneedling with PRF costs $1,300 per treatment and includes PRF undereye injections, while microinfusion costs $1,000 per treatment and includes growth factors and Botox. Injectables can cause temporary swelling, redness, tenderness and bruising.

Cosmetic tattooing covers brows, lips and the lash line. Hairstrokes is a machine-only brow technique that places individual hair-like strokes into the skin without incisions, and it suits clients with little or no brow hair, including those with alopecia or other hair-loss conditions. Powder brows use machine-implanted pigment for a soft, shaded pencil look, either airy or bolder, and suit clients who already have brow hair, including thick or unruly brows. Lip blush adds color, can correct asymmetry, and can be sheer or built up to a defined look, while melanin-rich lip neutralization uses warm tones to even out cool or dark lip undertones for a more saturated result. Lash line enhancement tattoos pigment along the lash line for the look of fuller, darker lashes. Hairstrokes, powder brows, lip blush and melanin-rich lip neutralization need at least two sessions for the best healed result. Initial brow or lip sessions cost $1,000, second sessions and refreshes within 12 months cost $500, and refreshes after 12 months cost $1,000. A virtual consultation is available for tattoo clients who are unsure whether the services suit them. Booking depends on location. New York clients book through Dr. Gerstman's office. California clients join a travel waitlist through the contact form, and replies to contact inquiries can take up to a week. Returning Oakland tattoo clients who need a second, additional or refresh session email to schedule.

Conservative, individualized treatment that starts with a minimal amount and builds gradually, with each plan considering the whole face and keeping the client looking like themselves.
