SY Aesthetics is opening in New York—with one location in the Washington Heights area of New York City and another in Middletown, NY. 

The full-service, state-of-the-art practice offers an innovative blend of plastic surgeries, non-surgical cosmetic services, nutritional guidance, and psychological support.

The company´s mission is to promote a holistic approach to plastic surgery and cosmetic medicine, creating “a world destination for beauty, health, and happiness,” SY states. 

Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jeffrey Yager, shown above on right) will serve as SY’s Medical Director, offering facial, breast and body procedures (surgical and non-invasive), along with traditional med spa facials and full-body laser treatments.

Dr. Jingduan Yang, shown above on left, SY’s CEO, is a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in integrative mental health care. He is also a fifth-generation teacher and practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, specializing in acupuncture.

Yang will bring his unique experience in Cosmetic Acupuncture to clients—including his groundbreaking acupuncture facelift.

Dr. Yang also developed a specialized 12-week program, which facilitates the delivery of essential nutrients and increases blood flow to skin cells, promoting cellular regeneration and enhancing skin vitality. This results in a more radiant complexion, while also activating specific points to achieve weight loss.

Dr. Yager comments, “After 26 years of plastic surgery private practice in Manhattan, I was by every metric successful—yet there was always a nagging feeling that I could be doing more. I met Dr. Yang…and the more we spoke, I realized my goal shouldn’t simply be making people look better, but rather making them happy and fulfilled on the inside.”

Yager adds, “Sometimes it goes much deeper than a surgery, by way of repairing an emotional or spiritual wound. I agreed to be a part of SY Aesthetics to lead the evolution of plastic surgery, as well as beauty from within.”

Dr. Yang adds, “Dr. Yager and I come from different professional backgrounds, but our end goal is the same. Our ability to marry aesthetics with internal happiness will be our key to satisfied patients and a successful partnership. I look forward to connecting with the Upper Manhattan and Middletown communities, and lending my knowledge of Chinese medicine to create a healthier future.”

Dr. Yang and Dr. Yager will be featured panelists at the 2023 Aesthetic Integrative Medicine and Surgery (AIMS) Symposium on September 29-30, 2023, hosted by The AIMS Society.

Both doctors will join a faculty of plastic surgeons, cosmetic medicine specialists, anti-aging practitioners, estheticians, dermatologists, hormone specialists, alternative/complementary medicine experts, traditional Chinese medicine providers, energy healers, acupuncturists, spiritual health leaders, and scientists and researchers to collaboratively discuss the latest science in all areas of beauty.
