Greenwich, Scarsdale and Chappaqua

You have been thinking about it for a while.

Most people here spent a year thinking about it first. No rush, nothing to talk you into. Just an honest answer.

Melissa of Beyond Beautiful by Melissa

What most people actually want

You do not want to look done.You do not want to look like someone else.You want to look like yourself, on a good morning.

A harder brief than it sounds. It is the only one Melissa works to.

How it works

Everything starts with a conversation.

Melissa looks at how your face moves, then tells you what she would do. Often less than you expected.

A lip treatment at Beyond Beautiful by Melissa

Then, only what you need.

Conservative by default. Staged, then reviewed. That is the whole method.

The method

Four steps, and you can stop at any of them.

Nothing is decided in one sitting. Plenty of people leave having booked nothing.

01

You talk first

What is bothering you, and what you have had done before. Nothing is assessed until you have said it out loud.

02

She looks, properly

How your face moves, how it sits, how your skin behaves. This is where you hear if something is not right for you.

03

A plan, in stages

What would be done, in what order, and what would be left alone. In plain terms, before you commit.

04

You live with it

Treatments are staged on purpose. You go away, see how it settles, then decide the next step together.

The locations

Three locations, one standard.

About

A practice, not a franchise.

Melissa built Beyond Beautiful around long appointments and honest answers. Three locations rather than one large clinic is what makes that possible: nobody is run to a clock, and nothing is decided in a hurry.

The practice is known for being direct. If a treatment is not right for you, or not right yet, you will be told so in the consultation rather than sold it.

Melissa and her staff are amazing and their new location in Scarsdale is beautiful. They always make you feel welcome and are so accommodating to your needs.

She makes me feel good about myself and helps build my confidence without pushing me to do more than I am comfortable with. That is why I only go to Melissa and recommend her as well as her amazing staff to everyone.

Mel the NP is fabulous! She listens to all your questions, answers them till you understand and feel comfortable. She is not pushy if you change your mind and decide not to have a procedure.

A client review

Before you book

The questions everyone asks.

Not here? Call and ask. Nobody will try to book you on the phone.

Most of what happens here is described as pressure rather than pain. Numbing cream or local numbing is used wherever it helps, and you are told before anything begins. If something is uncomfortable, say so and it stops.

The aim is that they cannot. Treatment here is deliberately conservative and often staged across visits rather than done all at once, which is what keeps it looking like you rather than like work.

It depends on the treatment. Some leave you able to drive home and carry on with your day; others leave the area pink, warm or a little swollen for a few days. You are told exactly what to expect before you book, not after.

No. Plenty of people leave a consultation having booked nothing at all. You are welcome to go away, think, and come back.

Then you will be told that. If what is bothering you is better addressed by something not offered here, you will be pointed somewhere else instead.

Long enough to actually talk. Appointments are booked one at a time so consultations are not run to a clock.

Whichever is easiest to get to. The three locations in Greenwich, Scarsdale and Chappaqua offer the same treatments to the same standard.

No. Everything offered here is temporary to some degree, and how long it lasts varies from person to person. That timing is set out at consultation so you can plan around it.

Book

None of this starts with a needle.

It starts with saying the thing out loud. Book, or call the location nearest you.

Three locations. One standard.
