Myrtle Avenue Access. Manhattan-Level Expertise.

The most direct local comparison is Glendale Dermatology on Myrtle Avenue — a general dermatology practice that also offers Botox and fillers. Dermatologists are qualified medical professionals, but there's a meaningful difference between a practice that offers injectables alongside skin conditions and rashes, and a dedicated medical aesthetics clinic in Glendale, NY where injectables are the entire clinical focus. Jennifer DiLandro has been injecting exclusively in the aesthetics space since 2005 and holds Allergan's Top 100 Injector ranking — a manufacturer-verified designation based on volume, safety, and outcomes. She also holds Merz Black Diamond status, the highest tier Merz awards to its top injectors. No other provider confirmed operating in Glendale's 11385 ZIP code holds both of those simultaneously.

The frozen face outcome is a technique problem, not a Botox problem. It happens when too much product is used, when it's placed incorrectly, or when the injector doesn't account for your specific facial anatomy and how your muscles actually move. Jennifer holds an Expert Level V certification, the highest injector tier awarded through CME training programs. After 18-plus years and thousands of patients, she knows exactly how much product each area needs and where the boundaries are. Clients consistently describe their results as looking refreshed rather than worked on.

Many standard laser systems use a single wavelength that works best on lighter skin tones, which means clients with medium to darker complexions are either turned away or treated with a system not designed for their skin. We use the Cynosure Apogee Elite, a dual-wavelength system specifically built to treat all skin types safely and effectively — including the medium and darker tones common among Glendale's diverse communities. The wavelength used is selected based on your specific skin tone during the consultation, not a one-size-fits-all setting.

Botox typically lasts three to four months, after which your muscles gradually return to normal activity. Hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm last longer, generally six to eighteen months depending on the area treated, while Radiesse and Sculptra can last even longer. Hyaluronic acid fillers are fully reversible with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if you ever want to return to your baseline — Jennifer has dissolved filler for clients who had work done elsewhere and weren't happy with the results.

Laser hair removal requires six to eight sessions spaced four to six weeks apart for lasting results, so timing matters if you have a target date in mind, like being ready before summer. Starting in late winter or early spring gives you enough sessions to see significant reduction before the warm months arrive, and it's easier to manage post-treatment sun exposure during fall and winter when you're naturally spending less time outdoors.

The consultation is genuinely just a conversation. You come in to our 81-03 Myrtle Avenue location, Jennifer reviews your concerns and goals, examines your skin, and explains which treatments would actually address what you're dealing with — and which ones wouldn't. No procedure happens during that first visit, and no payment is taken. We're open until 8 PM Tuesday through Thursday, and booking is available online.
