Onyx Aesthetics and Sports Medicine Paramus Office

Onyx Aesthetics and Sports Medicine is a practice that trades as Onyx Direct Care LLC, with patients seen at 405 Northfield Avenue in West Orange and at 1 Sears Drive in Paramus. Its founder, Dr. Christina Hector, also treats sports medicine and aesthetics patients at the Bergen Medical Sports and Spine offices.

On the sports medicine side, the practice evaluates and treats strains, sprains, tendinitis, joint pain, back and neck pain, acute and chronic sports injuries, and arthritis and degenerative joint disease. Pre-participation physicals are available for youth, high school, college and adult athletes. Exercise-as-medicine consultations build personalized movement plans aimed at reducing pain, improving strength and supporting long-term health.

Regenerative options include platelet-rich plasma injections for joints, tendons and ligaments, joint injections, trigger point injections and visco supplementation, also called knee gel shots. Osteopathic manipulative treatment, a hands-on approach using gentle techniques on muscles and joints, is also offered.

On the aesthetic side, PRP hair treatment is a non-surgical scalp procedure that uses the patient's own platelet-rich plasma. PRP skin therapy, also called the Vampire Facial, uses the patient's own blood and is applied by microneedling or injection depending on the patient's goals. Chemical peel consultations review medical history, desired results and suitability for the procedure, and the practice says its chemical peel team has extensive experience administering and overseeing peels. Hyfrecation uses a needle with an electrical current to remove small lumps and bumps such as milia, skin tags, age spots, warts, seborrheic keratosis and comedones, and is offered with local anesthesia or topical anesthetic cream, plus ice packs. Jeuveau injections, microneedling and VI Peels are also available.

Keynote speaking requests are made through a speaker request form on the website.

Care combines musculoskeletal medicine, aesthetic treatment and health education, with osteopathic principles applied alongside performance medicine.
