Erin Spitzberg of Nutrition by Design, LLC holds a master's degree in nutrition from New York University. The registered dietitian and certified nutritionist draws on this experience during nutritional counseling sessions. She works with clients aged 16 and up to design custom meal plans based on health, lifestyle, and food preferences.

A board-certified plastic surgeon, fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and 2008 president of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, Dr. D’Amico has bolstered the self-confidence of his patients for a span of more than 20 years. CoolSculpting treatments employ a pain-free, nonsurgical alternative to eradicating extra pounds that trespass on waistline and belly territories. Ideal candidates possess small amounts of body fat and maintain healthy lifestyles of regular calisthenics and stolen-gym-towel collections; these select individuals can seek to reduce love-handle presence from 22% to 25%. CoolSculpting terminates corpulent corpuscles with a selective cooling device, allowing the body to purge chilled fat cells through natural execratory functions. Like swimming in tubs of gelatin, this painless procedure requires no anesthesia, and clients may return to daily life after the one-hour process concludes.

Dr. Scott McGrath wears a white coat and treats patients, but you won’t find vials of medicine or scalpels in his office. Instead, the tools of his trade are his hands, which he uses to gently correct spinal subluxations that can cause illness. At NJ Spine and Neuropathy Center, he leads a team of doctors who also devote themselves to drug-free healing techniques. But before they administer any of their signature adjustments, hydro-massages, or spinal decompression, they take time to communicate their recommendations to patients after thorough exams, which they can do in English, Spanish, or Korean.

Over the last 20 years, the medical experts at New Jersey Foot and Ankle Centers have seen 20,000 peoples' feet. Having worked with tens of thousands of patients, the staff has sharpened their expertise in all things related to feet, from plantar fasciitis and sprained ankles to ingrown toenails and bunions. One of their specialties is their use of lasers to help destroy unwanted fungus residing on nail beds. With fewer side effects than other treatments such as oral medication, topical creams, and magic potions, laser toenail-fungus treatments require zero downtime.

Not even x-rays see all. Dr. Henry Slomowitz recognized this more than a decade ago, becoming an early adopter of diagnostic ultrasound, which can identify problems that a foot might normally hide from an x-ray. Diagnostic ultrasound is only the tip of the technological iceberg—aided by his staff of four, Dr. Slomowitz performs laser nail-fungus treatments and radio-frequency heel pain relief, among other advanced services.

Dr. Lorrie J Vece folds two decades of clinical experience into an advanced arsenal of cosmetic lasers. She trains her lasers on varicose veins and unwanted hair to banish each, as well as targeting facial rosacea, age spots, and large pores. Instead of passing the task to a technician, Dr. Vece performs all treatments herself, welcoming patients into a private treatment room. Her cache of technology also includes the Cynosure Apogee Elite, whose two lasers are designed for lighter and darker skin tones. Dr. Vece marries a friendly personal demeanor with her laser services, like a talk show host who moonlights as a museum-security provider.

The team of certified doctors, physician assistants, and licensed aestheticians at Metropolitan Dermatology works to uphold the integrity of each client’s skin with surgical and non-surgical treatments. Dermatology experts treat a variety of skin maladies, ranging from acne and psoriasis to rosacea, skin cancer, and warts. The doctors perform surgeries such as mole excision and scar revision, with specialized care available for infants and children. The staff can also use non-surgical methods such as laser hair removal, chemical peels, Botox, and The Pristine diamond peel system to ward off signs of aging such as wrinkles, drooping skin, or sudden fascination with hard candies.
