Aesura, answered.

Aesura is a physician-led longevity, regenerative, and aesthetic medicine practice in Hackensack, NJ. We combine hormone replacement (HRT/TRT), longevity precision medicine, regenerative therapies (PRP, peptides, exosomes), medical weight loss (GLP-1), the Longevity Lounge (HBOT, IV, cryotherapy, red light, NAD+), and a full med spa under one roof — all coordinated by board-certified physicians.

Aesura is led by board-certified physicians including Dr. Nancy Nguyen, MD. Every patient is seen by a physician — we do not run an NP-only or RN-led model for medical decisions. Aesthetic procedures and Lounge sessions are delivered by licensed clinicians under physician supervision.

Three things. First, every protocol starts with comprehensive labs — typically 60+ markers — not symptoms alone. Second, hormones, metabolism, regeneration, and aesthetics are coordinated by physicians, not siloed across separate vendors. Third, we publish our pricing transparently and follow up to data — re-checking labs at 8 weeks, then quarterly — not on a marketing schedule.

A medical practice. All clinical decisions are physician-supervised. We carry the malpractice infrastructure, charting, and informed-consent practices of a full medical office — not a spa. The aesthetic and recovery offerings sit on top of that medical foundation, not the other way around.

Yes. We accept new patients on a rolling basis. The first consultation is complimentary and runs about 15 minutes with a physician. Membership and concierge tiers are available for patients who want priority access.

Three ways: book online at aesura.janeapp.com, call (201) 983-2582, or email info@aesura.com. The first consultation is complimentary and is a 15-minute conversation with a board-certified physician. The full paid intake visit runs about an hour.

No. Patients come to Aesura directly. We are happy to coordinate with your PCP, OB-GYN, endocrinologist, dermatologist, or cardiologist if you'd like — and we routinely send labs and notes to outside providers on request.

Recent labs (within the last 12 months), a medication and supplement list, and any prior imaging or specialist notes that feel relevant. If you don't have any of that — that's fine. We start fresh from a comprehensive panel.

About 15 minutes for the complimentary intro consultation. The full paid intake visit, once you've decided to begin care, runs about an hour. We do not double-book physician time.

Yes. You can book med spa or Lounge services without becoming a longevity patient. That said — many patients who come in for an aesthetic visit end up doing a full workup once they hear the integrative read.

Memberships include priority scheduling, included Lounge sessions, discounted pricing on services, and an expanded annual workup. Concierge tiers add direct physician access by text and same-week appointments. Pricing is shared at consultation.

Yes. The first 15-minute consultation with a physician is complimentary — a brief conversation to share goals and decide if Aesura is the right fit. The full paid intake visit, scheduled when you're ready to begin care, runs about an hour.

HRT and TRT programs typically run $199–$399/month depending on protocol complexity, route of administration (pellet, cream, patch, oral, injection), and whether ancillary medications (HCG, anastrozole, progesterone) are required. Initial labs run separately and are quoted up front.

PRP and PRF hair restoration is $750–$950 per session. Most plans use a series of 3 to 6 sessions, 4–6 weeks apart, with maintenance every 6 months.

Aesura is a private, fee-for-service practice — we do not bill insurance for medical services. Some lab work can be billed through your insurance directly. We provide superbills on request that many patients submit for out-of-network reimbursement. HSA and FSA cards are accepted.

Yes. We accept Cherry, CareCredit, and HSA/FSA cards. Memberships are typically billed monthly. Multi-session packages can be split across the treatment course.

Fully. No surprise charges, no upsell pressure, no "let me check with my manager" pricing. Every plan is quoted in writing before you commit. If a recommended add-on changes the cost — we tell you before, not after.

We offer bioidentical estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone for women; testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) with HCG and anastrozole as indicated for men; thyroid optimization; DHEA; and adrenal support protocols. Delivery routes include pellets, creams, patches, oral, and injection — chosen to fit your physiology and lifestyle.

OB-GYNs and primary care physicians are excellent at their specialties. Aesura is a longevity practice — meaning hormones are evaluated alongside thyroid, cortisol, metabolic markers, body composition, and vascular health. We have more time per visit, more data per panel, and a dedicated focus on optimization rather than disease management.

Most patients feel meaningful changes by week 6–10. Sleep and mood often shift first, then energy and recovery, then body composition. We re-check labs at 8 weeks, then quarterly, and adjust precisely from there.

Yes — and this is one of the most common reasons women come to us. Perimenopause is not a diagnosis of exclusion. Hormones fluctuate hour-to-hour during this window. We look at the trend across multiple draws, plus thyroid, cortisol, ferritin, and inflammatory markers — not a single estradiol level pulled on a Tuesday.

In appropriate doses — yes. Bioidentical testosterone is well-studied for libido, mood, energy, and lean-mass support in women, particularly in peri- and post-menopause. We dose conservatively, start low, and re-check labs frequently. Testosterone use in women is an off-label application of an approved medication and is prescribed at physician discretion.

TRT can suppress endogenous production, which can affect testicular volume and fertility. This is why we routinely add HCG for men who want to preserve fertility or testicular function — and discuss family planning openly before starting therapy.

There is no single "best" — it depends on your physiology, your schedule, and what you're optimizing for. Injections give the tightest control. Pellets offer the most convenient cadence (every 3–4 months). Creams and patches work well for women's HRT. We pick what fits your body, not what's easiest to bill.

Comprehensive baseline testing — 60+ markers across hormones, thyroid, metabolic, inflammatory, lipid, vascular, and nutrient status — combined with body composition, sleep, and lifestyle data. From that, we design an individualized plan that may include hormones, peptides, lifestyle protocols, supplementation, weight management, or referrals.

Total & free testosterone, SHBG, estradiol, progesterone, DHEA-S, full thyroid (TSH, free T3/T4, reverse T3, antibodies), cortisol rhythm, fasting insulin, full lipid panel with apoB and Lp(a), hsCRP, homocysteine, vitamin D, ferritin, B12, full CBC + CMP, hemoglobin A1c, and selected nutrient and inflammatory markers — adjusted to your history.

No. Those are data products. Aesura is a medical practice — meaning every result is interpreted by a physician in the context of your symptoms, history, and goals, and every recommendation can be acted on the same day with prescription, treatment, or referral.

For most patients on a protocol: at 8 weeks after starting, then every 90 days until stable, then every 6 months for maintenance. For patients in pure longevity tracking (no active protocol), once or twice yearly.

It means we are optimizing for healthspan — the years you live well, energetically, with intact function — not just adding years on the back end. The work is unglamorous: sleep, hormones, body composition, vascular and metabolic health, inflammation. Done early and consistently, it changes your trajectory.

Therapies that use the body's own biology — platelet-rich plasma (PRP), platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), peptide protocols, and select exosome and growth-factor work — to support tissue repair, hair restoration, skin renewal, and recovery. All under physician supervision and with appropriate informed consent for off-label uses.

Most patients see best results from a series of 3 to 6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every 6 months. Visible improvement typically begins at 3–4 months, with peak result at 6–9 months. Cost runs $750–$950 per session. (See the hair-restoration page for the full protocol.)

We use FDA-approved and select compounded peptides depending on indication — including BPC-157, GHK-Cu, ipamorelin/CJC-1295, sermorelin, AOD-9604, and others — for tissue repair, recovery, sleep, and metabolic support. Peptide use is highly individualized, and many applications are off-label and prescribed at physician discretion based on emerging evidence.

In selected applications — primarily topically alongside microneedling and laser, where we have the most evidence and the regulatory environment is clearest. We do not perform IV exosome infusions. The FDA has not approved any exosome product for systemic use, and the off-label IV market raises safety, sterility, and regulatory concerns we are not comfortable with.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is processed at a faster centrifuge spin and is rich in concentrated platelets and growth factors. PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) uses a slower, single spin with no anticoagulant, producing a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors more gradually over several days. Both work; we use both depending on the patient's profile.

Four physician-supervised modalities co-located in a single suite: hyperbaric oxygen therapy (soft-shell, 1.5 ATA), whole-body cryotherapy, commercial-grade red light therapy, and IV infusion therapy (custom hydration, recovery, immune, and NAD+ drips). Members can stack treatments in a single visit.

No — and this matters. NAD+ infusions are sequenced before or after a hyperbaric session, never inside the chamber. NAD+ requires dedicated monitoring (it can produce flushing, chest tightness, and nausea if pushed too fast), and that level of supervision isn't possible inside a sealed HBOT chamber. We commonly run a recovery or hydration drip during HBOT, and schedule NAD+ as its own dedicated session.

Yes — the Lounge is built for stacking. A typical visit might include red light + HBOT followed by a recovery or hydration drip in 75–90 minutes. Cryotherapy is usually scheduled at the start or end. Our team helps you sequence based on your goals and time.

No. Single sessions, multi-session packages, and concierge memberships are all available. Members receive priority scheduling and per-session savings of up to 20%.

At 1.5 atmospheres absolute, soft-shell HBOT increases tissue oxygenation, supports mitochondrial function, and has working evidence in recovery, post-concussion care, wound healing, and select neurological applications. It is not a magic bullet — and we are direct about where the evidence is solid versus where it is still emerging. Sessions run 60–90 minutes.

Every modality at Aesura is physician-supervised and integrated into your longevity plan. Cryotherapy, HBOT, red light, and IV protocols are matched to your labs and goals — not generic packages.

Custom hydration, recovery, immune, neuro, NAD+, and physician-formulated drips, plus personalized protocols matched to your panel. Vitamin and mineral content is adjusted to your labs. Most drips run 30–60 minutes; NAD+ runs longer and on its own clock.

Neurotoxins (Jeuveau, Letybo), dermal fillers (Restylane, Juvederm), Sculptra, Fraxel laser, Rejuran (polynucleotide skin booster), PRP under-eye, microneedling + PRP (vampire facial), and PRP/PRF hair restoration. All physician-supervised.

All injectables are performed by licensed clinicians under direct physician supervision. For complex protocols (Sculptra, full-face plans, regenerative work) the physician personally oversees or performs the work.

Not at Aesura. Our aesthetic philosophy is restorative, not augmentative. Less product, applied better, in service of your features. We routinely turn away requests we don't think will look good — and we'll tell you why.

Two things. Physician supervision on every visit. And integration with your medical workup — skin texture, collagen, fat-pad changes, and pigmentation often track with hormones, sleep, and inflammation. Treating the surface without addressing the underlying biology leaves results on the table.

Aesura does not perform hair transplants. We do refer patients who are good candidates to qualified hair-transplant surgeons, and we frequently treat post-transplant patients with PRP to support graft survival.

We use FDA-approved GLP-1 and GLP-1/GIP agonists (semaglutide, tirzepatide) when clinically appropriate. Every weight-loss program at Aesura includes a metabolic workup, body composition tracking, lean-mass preservation strategy, and a long-term taper or maintenance plan.

We follow current FDA guidance closely. When brand-name supply is available, we prescribe brand. We are conservative about compounded versions and disclose source, dosing, and risk transparently when discussing options.

Real concern, real protocol. We track body composition (not just scale weight), prioritize protein intake (1g/lb of goal weight), build in resistance training cadence, and consider adjuncts like creatine and selected peptides for patients who want maximum lean preservation.

This is the part most clinics don't talk about. We plan for it from day one — with a taper strategy, a maintenance plan, and a separate visit at the 12-month mark to reassess hormones, metabolism, and behavior. Weight loss without a maintenance plan is rebound waiting to happen.

Sometimes. We help patients navigate prior authorization for medical-necessity coverage when it applies. For cosmetic or quality-of-life use, most insurers do not cover. We share full pricing transparently before any decision.
