About

Nios was started in 2009 as Nios Spa by Josh Gordon, M.D., who earned his medical degree at NYU School of Medicine and did not pursue a medical license. The business was renamed Nios Skin Lab in 2026, and Gordon is listed as its founder and CEO.

The clinic has three locations: Manhattan at 315 W 57th St, Suite 308, Astoria at 31-76 Steinway St, and Brooklyn at 567 Pacific St. Client records are shared across locations, so a client can book at whichever one is most convenient. Bookings can be made by phone at 212-863-9058.

Electrolysis is the core service. A fine, sterile probe is placed into each follicle and a controlled pulse of heat is delivered to the growth center. The business describes the method as permanent removal rather than reduction, and says it works on all hair colors and skin tones. Most clients see permanent results within 12 to 18 months, usually starting with sessions twice a month and moving to monthly as hair thins. Pricing is by time rather than by body part. Sessions for small areas run about 5 to 30 minutes, medium areas about 30 to 60 minutes, and large areas 60 to 120 minutes or more.

Facials range from express and full facials to anti-aging, aqua, dermaplaning, and resurfacing chemical peel facials, with custom options also available. Treatments include microdermabrasion, hydrodermabrasion, and chemical peels. Sound healing is included with facial treatments and is available as an add-on or a standalone skin treatment, and each location has a sound healing system at no charge. Facial memberships come in two monthly tiers and include discounts on facials, retail products, and electrolysis, with no long contract. The business says its technicians are paid to clear skin rather than to upsell, and that they are not paid commissions or quotas.

The business combines technology with a holistic approach to facials and describes electrolysis as permanent removal rather than reduction. Hormone-driven hair growth is handled with a sustained protocol on a planned schedule, and clinical assessment is referred to a physician.
