Hear From Our Clients
A reputation built on 350+ client experiences across our premier locations.
You know that feeling when someone says “you look great” but can’t pinpoint exactly why? That’s what happens when aesthetic treatments are done right.
Your colleagues notice you look refreshed after that big presentation. Your friends comment that you’re glowing at weekend gatherings. But nobody’s whispering about obvious work or frozen expressions.
The difference is working with someone who understands that enhancement means bringing out what’s already there, not changing who you are. When your Botox allows natural expression while smoothing those worry lines, or when your filler restores volume without creating pillow face, you get compliments on how good you look – not questions about what you’ve had done.
Jennifer DiLandro didn’t stumble into aesthetic medicine. She built her reputation as a nurse practitioner and Director of Nursing at Synergy First Surgical Center before opening Dolce Aesthetics in 2009.
That medical background shows in every consultation. While other places might rush you through treatments, we take time to understand your goals, examine your skin properly, and create realistic treatment plans. Every procedure is supervised by licensed medical professionals because cutting corners isn’t worth the risk.
Astoria Heights residents appreciate having this level of expertise in their backyard. No need to trek to Manhattan for quality care when you can get the same medical standards right here in Queens, often at better prices and with more personal attention.
Your free consultation isn’t a sales pitch disguised as medical advice. We sit down and discuss what’s bothering you, what you hope to achieve, and what’s actually realistic given your skin, lifestyle, and budget.
If Botox won’t solve your particular concern, we’ll tell you. If you need a different approach than what you came in requesting, we’ll explain why. The goal is getting you the results you want, not pushing expensive treatments you don’t need.
Most procedures take less than an hour and fit easily into your lunch break or after-work schedule. You’ll know exactly what to expect during treatment, how long results typically last, and what follow-up care involves. No surprises, no pressure, just clear communication from start to finish.

Our FDA-approved treatments include Botox for expression lines, Juvederm and Radiesse fillers for volume restoration, advanced laser hair removal, and medical-grade facials. Each option is chosen for proven safety and effectiveness, not because it’s trendy.
Astoria Heights professionals love our express Botox appointments that fit into busy schedules. The laser hair removal packages are especially popular with commuters who want to eliminate daily shaving routines – imagine never worrying about razor burn or missed spots again.
Living in Queens means dealing with harsh winters that dry out your skin and humid summers that trigger breakouts. Our facial treatments are customized for the seasonal changes your skin faces throughout the year, helping you maintain healthy, glowing skin regardless of what the weather throws at you.
You’ll start noticing smoother lines within 3-5 days, with full results visible by two weeks. Most people maintain those results for 3-4 months, though this varies based on your muscle activity, metabolism, and the areas treated.
The key is understanding what Botox actually does – it relaxes the muscles that create expression lines when you frown, squint, or raise your eyebrows. You’ll still have natural facial expressions, just without the deep creases that make you look tired or worried.
Many of our Astoria Heights clients schedule their next appointment around the 3-month mark to maintain consistent results. This timing works well with seasonal changes and helps you look your best year-round without obvious fluctuations in your appearance.
Our Cynosure Apogee Elite laser system is specifically designed to work safely on all skin tones, including darker complexions that many older laser systems couldn’t treat effectively. The dual-wavelength technology allows us to customize treatment for your specific skin and hair combination.
Dark, coarse hair responds best to laser treatment, while very light blonde, gray, or red hair may require more sessions or alternative approaches. During your consultation, we’ll examine your hair and skin to determine the most effective treatment plan for your specific situation.
The built-in cooling system minimizes discomfort during each session. Most people describe the sensation as a quick rubber band snap followed by immediate cooling relief. You’ll typically need 6-8 treatments spaced 6-8 weeks apart, with each session building on the previous one for permanent hair reduction.
Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid filler that works beautifully for lips, under-eye hollows, and adding subtle volume to cheeks. It integrates smoothly with your natural tissue and can be dissolved if you’re not happy with results. Most people see results lasting 12-18 months.
Radiesse is calcium-based and provides more structural support for deeper lines and areas needing significant volume restoration, like nasolabial folds or marionette lines. It also stimulates your body’s natural collagen production, giving you both immediate results and long-term improvement lasting 15-18 months.
The choice depends on your specific concerns, the area being treated, and your desired outcome. During your consultation, we’ll recommend the best option based on your facial anatomy, skin thickness, and aesthetic goals rather than pushing the most expensive option.
Most of our facial treatments require minimal to no downtime. HydraFacials and light chemical peels allow you to return to work immediately, though your skin may appear slightly pink for a few hours – easily covered with makeup if needed.
Deeper treatments like VI Peels involve 3-7 days of visible peeling, during which you’ll want to avoid important events or professional photos. We carefully time these treatments around your schedule and any important dates you have coming up.
Microneedling typically causes redness similar to a mild sunburn for 24-48 hours. We provide specific aftercare products and detailed instructions to minimize any visible effects and optimize your healing process. Most people schedule these treatments before weekends to allow maximum recovery time.
Cosmetic treatments aren’t covered by insurance since they’re considered elective procedures, but we work hard to make quality care accessible. Our pricing is often more affordable than Manhattan alternatives while maintaining the same medical standards.
We accept cash, credit cards, and offer financing through CareCredit for larger treatment packages. Many clients find the monthly payment option makes comprehensive treatment plans more manageable within their budget.
Package deals for multiple sessions or combining treatments often provide significant savings compared to individual appointments. During your free consultation, we’ll discuss all pricing options and help you find an approach that works within your financial comfort zone without compromising on quality or safety.
Good candidates are generally healthy adults with realistic expectations about what injectable treatments can and cannot achieve. We thoroughly review your medical history, current medications, and aesthetic goals during your consultation to ensure treatments are appropriate for you.
Certain conditions like pregnancy, breastfeeding, or active autoimmune disorders may require postponing treatment. Blood-thinning medications can increase bruising risk, so we’ll discuss optimal timing around these medications to minimize side effects.
Age isn’t the determining factor – we’ve successfully treated clients from their late twenties to their seventies. What matters most is your skin condition, desired outcome, and commitment to following pre- and post-treatment instructions for optimal results and healing.
