YOUNG Los Angeles

YOUNG is a practice with offices in Newport Beach, Los Angeles and Washington, DC. It focuses on non-surgical aesthetic and regenerative treatments, organized into three groups: Lift and Regenerate, Injectables, and Skin and Body. The practice says its aim is to help clients look radiant and like themselves rather than younger.

The practice was founded and is owned by Francine Young, an aesthetic nurse with more than 15 years of experience, and works alongside Dr. Kian Karimi, a facial plastic surgeon. Consultations are meant to recommend only the treatments the practice believes will serve each client's goals. Francine combines different technologies for each client and works with all skin types, ethnicities and lifestyles.

Within the Lift and Regenerate group, Bio-Rejuvenation is a regenerative treatment aimed at restoring skin quality, PRF Therapy uses platelet-rich fibrin prepared from the client's own blood, and PDO Threadlift is a non-surgical facelift using absorbable PDO sutures. The threadlift uses NovaThreads PDO threads and the Beyond Threads collection, which Francine helped custom-design and test with NovaThreads. The practice says the threadlift takes about an hour under local anesthetic, with little to no downtime, and that results appear right away and continue to build over several months.

The Injectables group includes Botox to soften expression lines, which takes about ten minutes and needs no anesthesia, and dermal fillers including Restylane and Juvederm product families, with the Juvederm family containing lidocaine for comfort. Kybella is offered to dissolve fat beneath the chin without surgery, and Booster Injections are offered for skin quality and wellness.

The Skin and Body group covers Sylfirm X, a radio frequency microneedling treatment using gold microneedles that is aimed at pigment, redness and laxity; Pixel Resurfacing, a fractional laser treatment; Microneedling to stimulate collagen and refine texture and pores; Ultherapy and the Ultherapy Face Lift, which use ultrasound to tighten and lift without incisions; Body Contouring with the Alma Accent XL radio frequency system; Color Correction for uneven tone and redness; and MicronJet and MicronJet Skin Boosters for controlled delivery of skin-rejuvenating solutions.
