About the Practice

Your Visit &
Our Process.

Why does Siwa Oasis require an MD consultation before treatment?
Every client at Siwa Oasis Aesthetics undergoes a mandatory pre-procedure clinical assessment by our in-house Medical Doctors. This ensures every treatment is medically appropriate, safely administered, and tailored to your unique anatomy, medical history, and aesthetic goals. It is the foundation of our medical-grade protocol.
Are walk-ins accepted?
No. Siwa Oasis Aesthetics operates strictly By Appointment Only. This ensures every client receives undivided physician attention and the discreet, sanctuary experience that defines our practice. Please book online or call (973) 567-7492.
What should I expect at my first visit?
Your first visit begins with a complimentary clinical consultation with one of our in-house MDs. We'll review your goals, complete medical history, and assess your skin and concerns. Together, we'll design a personalized treatment plan — and you'll never feel pressured to commit on the spot.
Do I need a referral?
No referral is needed. New clients can book a complimentary consultation directly by calling (973) 567-7492 or completing our contact form.
How is my health information protected?
As a medical practice, Siwa Oasis Aesthetics is fully HIPAA compliant. All client records, intake forms, and digital communications are protected by encryption (SSL/TLS) and handled with strict confidentiality. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
What is your cancellation policy?
We respectfully require at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations and no-shows may be subject to a service fee. Please call us as soon as you know — we understand life happens.
Category One

Injectables &
Neuromodulators.

What's the difference between Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin?
All three are FDA-approved neuromodulators that relax muscles to soften dynamic wrinkles. Each has slightly different molecular characteristics, onset times, and diffusion patterns. Your MD will recommend the best option for your specific anatomy and treatment goals during your consultation.
How long do neuromodulator results last?
Results typically last 3–4 months. With consistent treatment over time, many clients find their results last progressively longer as the treated muscles gradually weaken. Maintenance appointments every 3–4 months provide the most consistent results.
Are dermal fillers reversible?
Yes. Hyaluronic acid (HA) based fillers — such as Juvederm and Restylane — can be safely dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed. This is a key safety advantage of HA-based fillers and one of the reasons we exclusively use them.
Is there downtime after injectables?
Most clients return to normal activities immediately. Mild swelling or bruising at injection sites may last 1–3 days. We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, alcohol, and blood thinners for 24 hours, and not touching or massaging the treated area.
Category Two

Skin Renewal
& Laser.

How does medical-grade microneedling work?
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin's dermal layer, triggering the body's natural wound-healing response. This stimulates new collagen and elastin production, improving texture, scarring, pores, and fine lines over a series of sessions.
How many microneedling sessions will I need?
Most clients see meaningful improvement after 3–4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Deeper concerns like acne scarring may benefit from 4–6 sessions. Your provider will create a customized protocol during your consultation.
Are chemical peels safe for sensitive skin?
Yes — when properly selected. We use a range of medical-grade peel formulations (AHA, BHA, TCA) and our MDs match the strength and ingredients to your skin type, sensitivity, and goals. We always start conservatively and adjust based on results.
Does laser hair removal work for all skin types?
Yes. Our laser technology is calibrated to safely treat all skin types and tones. During your consultation, we'll determine the optimal settings based on your individual skin and hair characteristics.
How many laser hair removal sessions are needed?
Most clients require 6–8 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal, lasting results. Hair grows in cycles, and multiple sessions ensure we target follicles during their active growth phase. Annual touch-up sessions help maintain results.
Category Three

Wellness &
Body Contouring.

What is IV drip therapy and how does it work?
IV drip therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into your bloodstream for 100% bioavailability — bypassing the digestive system. We offer specialized blends for hydration, immunity, athletic recovery, and energy. All drips are administered under physician supervision.
How does your medical weight loss program work?
Our physician-supervised weight loss program begins with comprehensive metabolic testing and a clinical evaluation. Based on your individual health profile, we create a personalized program that may include nutritional counseling, lifestyle support, and pharmacological options when appropriate.
Is body contouring really non-invasive?
Yes. Our body contouring services use radiofrequency and ultrasound energy to target stubborn fat and tighten skin without incisions, anesthesia, or downtime. You may return to normal activities immediately after each session.
