THE ECHELON PHILOSOPHY | BEAUTY GUIDED BY MEDICAL EXPERTISE
At Echelon Medical & Aesthetics, we believe that the most beautiful aesthetic results are those that appear natural, balanced, and uniquely your own. Our approach is not defined by a single device, treatment trend, or predetermined formula. Instead, we combine the principles of medicine, advanced aesthetic technologies, and individualized clinical judgment to develop treatment recommendations that reflect each patient's anatomy, skin characteristics, health history, and personal priorities. Under the leadership of Dr. Nicole M. Batty, our practice recognizes that skin laxity, localized fullness, pigmentation, and changes in texture can arise from different biological and anatomical factors. Understanding those factors is essential to determining whether a particular treatment is likely to be appropriate. Our goal is to provide a sophisticated patient experience where medical expertise is complemented by clear communication, realistic expectations, and attention to detail. We value subtle refinement over exaggerated transformation and thoughtful treatment planning over unnecessary procedures. For patients seeking physician-led body contouring and laser skin rejuvenation in Manhattan, Echelon offers an approach built around precision, discretion, and personalized care.
A MORE THOUGHTFUL APPROACH TO AESTHETIC MEDICINE
Every patient deserves to feel heard, respected, and fully informed. At Echelon, the consultation is an essential part of the aesthetic experience, allowing us to understand what matters most to you and evaluate the options that may best support your goals. We believe that responsible aesthetic medicine requires more than the ability to perform a procedure; it requires the judgment to recognize when a treatment is appropriate, when an alternative may be more suitable, and when no intervention is the best recommendation. This commitment to individualized care reflects the physician-led philosophy of Echelon Medical & Aesthetics and our belief that confidence should be supported by both medical knowledge and aesthetic understanding.
DISCOVER YOUR ECHELON TREATMENT | BEAUTY BEGINS WITH UNDERSTANDING YOUR GOALS
Your aesthetic journey should begin with what you would like to improve, not with the name of a technology. At Echelon Medical & Aesthetics, we help patients navigate their options by evaluating the underlying concern and identifying procedures that may be clinically appropriate. If you are concerned about localized fullness around the abdomen or waistline, Echelon Sculpt may be an option to discuss. If your primary concern is mild loose or crepey skin, Echelon Firm & Contour focuses on laser skin remodeling and the appearance of improved firmness. Patients interested in overall contour refinement may wish to explore Echelon Define, while those concerned about uneven texture or the appearance of cellulite may benefit from an assessment through Echelon Smooth. For selected pigmentation concerns, Echelon Radiance incorporates Fotona StarWalker technology, while Echelon Clear addresses appropriate superficial vascular concerns. Patients interested in radiofrequency microneedling may inquire about Echelon Renew RF, subject to availability, and those exploring minimally invasive laser-assisted tightening may discuss Echelon EndoTight Contour when the required equipment and clinical capabilities are confirmed. Echelon Dry provides an additional treatment pathway for patients experiencing excessive underarm sweating. Every recommendation is individualized, and the most suitable option is determined through medical assessment rather than an online treatment selector alone.

THE ECHELON SIGNATURE BODY AESTHETICS COLLECTION
ECHELON SCULPT | ADVANCED FOTONA TIGHTSCULPTING® IN NYC
NONSURGICAL LASER BODY CONTOURING & SKIN FIRMNESS
Echelon Sculpt is our signature nonsurgical laser body contouring treatment concept utilizing Fotona TightSculpting®, a dual-wavelength approach designed to address selected areas of localized fullness while supporting improvement in the appearance of skin firmness. Fotona TightSculpting® combines Nd PIANO® technology, which delivers controlled thermal energy into deeper tissue, with Er SMOOTH® technology, which supports superficial skin remodeling and collagen-related changes. This complementary approach considers both localized contour concerns and the quality of the overlying skin, making it relevant to appropriately selected patients experiencing mild localized fullness together with diminished skin elasticity. Common areas evaluated for treatment include the abdomen, waistline, flanks, upper arms, and thighs. Unlike surgical liposuction, Fotona TightSculpting® does not physically remove large volumes of fat, and the degree of contour improvement is generally more modest and patient-dependent. It is not a weight-loss procedure or a substitute for treatment of obesity. At Echelon Medical & Aesthetics, the consultation process considers body composition, tissue characteristics, skin laxity, relevant medical history, and realistic expectations before determining whether laser contouring is appropriate. For patients searching for Fotona TightSculpting in NYC, laser body contouring in Manhattan, or nonsurgical body sculpting near Midtown Manhattan, Echelon offers an individualized, physician-led approach focused on thoughtful treatment selection and natural-looking refinement.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS: Improvement in selected localized contour concerns, smoother-looking body contours, enhanced appearance of skin firmness, and collagen remodeling.
COMMON TREATMENT AREAS: Abdomen, waistline, flanks, upper arms, and thighs, according to clinical suitability and applicable device indications.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE: Session duration and the number of recommended visits depend on the treatment area, protocol, and individual anatomy. Patients may experience warmth, temporary redness, swelling, or sensitivity. Visible improvement, when achieved, may develop gradually.
IDEAL CONSULTATION CANDIDATE: An individual with stable body weight, selected localized fullness, mild skin laxity, and realistic expectations.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW: Echelon Sculpt is not a replacement for liposuction, major weight loss, or surgery for substantial excess skin.
TREATMENT INVESTMENT: Pricing and any recommended treatment series are discussed after individualized assessment.

ECHELON DEFINE | PRECISION LASER CONTOUR REFINEMENT
FOTONA ND PIANO® TECHNOLOGY
Echelon Define is our personalized laser contour-refinement treatment concept for selected patients concerned about changes in tissue firmness and the appearance of natural body definition. As collagen structure, skin elasticity, and subcutaneous tissue distribution change over time, areas such as the abdomen, waistline, thighs, and upper arms may appear less defined even in individuals who maintain an active lifestyle. Using selected Fotona Nd PIANO® thermal treatment approaches, Echelon Define focuses on controlled tissue heating and remodeling rather than direct muscle stimulation. This distinction is important because laser contour refinement does not build muscle, replace resistance training, or reproduce the mechanism of magnetic muscle-stimulation technologies. Instead, the objective is to support improvement in the appearance of mild tissue laxity and smoother-looking contours in appropriately selected patients. During consultation, the clinician evaluates whether the patient's concern is primarily related to localized fullness, skin laxity, underlying muscle structure, or another anatomical factor. That assessment helps determine whether Echelon Define is a reasonable treatment option or whether another approach would better match the patient's goals.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS: Improved appearance of tissue firmness, smoother-looking contours, and gradual refinement of selected body areas.
COMMON TREATMENT AREAS: Abdomen, waistline, flanks, thighs, and upper arms.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE: Duration, treatment frequency, recovery, and expected results depend on the selected Fotona protocol. Temporary warmth, redness, or sensitivity may occur.
IDEAL CONSULTATION CANDIDATE: A patient seeking subtle nonsurgical contour refinement rather than muscle growth or major fat reduction.
TREATMENT INVESTMENT: Individualized after consultation.

ECHELON FIRM & CONTOUR | ADVANCED LASER SKIN TIGHTENING IN MANHATTAN
FOTONA ER SMOOTH® TECHNOLOGY
Echelon Firm & Contour is our advanced laser skin-tightening treatment concept for patients seeking improvement in the appearance of mild skin laxity, crepey texture, and diminished firmness. Over time, changes in collagen and elastin can affect the skin's resilience, while pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and environmental exposure may contribute to additional changes in texture and elasticity. Utilizing Fotona Er SMOOTH® technology, this treatment approach delivers controlled thermal energy intended to support collagen remodeling and gradual improvement in skin quality. Areas such as the abdomen, upper arms, thighs, and knees may be evaluated depending on the degree of laxity, skin characteristics, and applicable indications. Echelon Firm & Contour is particularly relevant to patients who want subtle rejuvenation without conventional surgical lifting, although significant excess skin generally cannot be corrected with noninvasive laser treatment alone. At Echelon Medical & Aesthetics, treatment planning considers the difference between mild skin laxity, substantial skin redundancy, and changes in underlying tissue volume, since each concern may require a different approach. Our objective is to provide realistic recommendations that respect the patient's anatomy and support natural-looking improvement.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS: Smoother-looking crepey skin, improved appearance of firmness and elasticity, and collagen remodeling.
COMMON TREATMENT AREAS: Abdomen, upper arms, thighs, knees, and selected areas of mild skin laxity.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE: The session schedule depends on the treatment area and selected protocol. Temporary redness, warmth, swelling, or sensitivity may occur. Visible changes may develop gradually as tissue remodeling progresses.
IDEAL CONSULTATION CANDIDATE: A patient with mild skin laxity who understands the limitations of nonsurgical tightening.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW: Significant hanging or redundant skin may require surgical evaluation.
TREATMENT INVESTMENT: Determined after individualized assessment.

ECHELON SMOOTH | CELLULITE APPEARANCE & SKIN TEXTURE REFINEMENT IN NYC
FOTONA SP DYNAMIS LASER TECHNOLOGY
Echelon Smooth is our personalized approach to selected concerns involving uneven body skin texture, mild laxity, and the visible appearance of cellulite. Cellulite is a common aesthetic condition influenced by the relationship between fibrous connective tissue, subcutaneous fat, and the overlying skin, and it can occur in individuals of virtually every body type. As skin elasticity changes, surface irregularities may become more noticeable, particularly around the buttocks and thighs. Selected Fotona SP Dynamis thermal laser approaches may support skin remodeling and improve the appearance of firmness or texture, potentially making some superficial irregularities less visible. However, laser skin tightening does not mechanically release the fibrous septal bands responsible for certain deeper cellulite dimples, and the clinical evidence for a specific cellulite protocol must be evaluated carefully. At Echelon, patients interested in cellulite treatment receive an assessment of the type and severity of dimpling, skin quality, tissue laxity, and available treatment options. The goal is not to promise the complete removal of cellulite but to determine whether an appropriate treatment may offer worthwhile improvement in skin appearance.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS: Improved appearance of skin texture, enhanced firmness, and reduced visibility of selected superficial irregularities.
COMMON TREATMENT AREAS: Buttocks, posterior thighs, outer thighs, and selected areas of uneven texture.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE: Session duration, frequency, recovery, and results depend on the specific protocol and should be confirmed during consultation.
IDEAL CONSULTATION CANDIDATE: A patient with selected texture and mild laxity concerns who understands that different cellulite types respond differently to treatment.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW: This treatment is not equivalent to cellulite septal-release procedures, and improvement is not guaranteed.
TREATMENT INVESTMENT: Determined after examination.

ECHELON ENDOTIGHT CONTOUR | MINIMALLY INVASIVE LASER-ASSISTED TIGHTENING
FOTONA ENDOTIGHT™ TECHNOLOGY
Echelon EndoTight Contour is a proposed signature treatment category for selected minimally invasive laser-assisted tightening procedures using Fotona EndoTight™ technology, where the necessary equipment, accessories, practitioner training, and clinical indications are confirmed. Unlike surface-based laser rejuvenation, EndoTight™ involves delivering controlled laser energy beneath the skin through a specialized technique using a small entry point. This approach may support localized tissue contraction, collagen remodeling, and selected contour improvements, particularly in appropriately chosen facial and neck areas. Patients concerned about submental fullness, jawline definition, or selected tissue laxity may wish to explore whether this type of procedure is appropriate. Because minimally invasive laser-assisted treatment involves penetration beneath the skin, it requires more extensive medical assessment, informed consent, appropriate anesthesia, and recovery planning than a noninvasive surface laser procedure. Possible risks include swelling, bruising, infection, burns, nerve injury, contour irregularities, and other complications. At Echelon, any decision to offer or perform this procedure must be based on confirmed system compatibility, applicable indications, and clinician qualifications. Patients should not assume that all Fotona platforms or accessories support every EndoTight™ application.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS: Targeted tissue tightening, improvement in selected localized fullness, and contour refinement in appropriate candidates.
PRIMARY AREAS FOR ASSESSMENT: Submental region, jawline, and selected facial or neck areas.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE: Procedure duration, anesthesia, recovery, and expected outcomes depend on the anatomical area and technique. Bruising, swelling, and a recovery period should be anticipated.
IDEAL CONSULTATION CANDIDATE: A medically suitable patient with selected localized fullness or laxity.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW: Availability must be confirmed. This is not a routine noninvasive body laser treatment.
TREATMENT INVESTMENT: Provided after confirmation of procedural availability and individual candidacy.

ECHELON RENEW RF | ADVANCED RADIOFREQUENCY MICRONEEDLING FOR BODY SKIN REJUVENATION
MORPHEUS8 TECHNOLOGY
Echelon Renew RF is our proposed signature treatment category for radiofrequency microneedling using Morpheus8, subject to confirmation of current service availability. Radiofrequency microneedling combines controlled needle penetration with the delivery of radiofrequency energy into selected tissue depths, supporting collagen remodeling and improvement in certain skin texture and mild laxity concerns. This approach may be considered for appropriately selected patients who notice crepey skin, textural changes, or diminished firmness on areas such as the abdomen, upper arms, thighs, or knees. Treatment planning requires careful consideration of skin type, tissue thickness, medical history, treatment depth, and energy settings. Radiofrequency microneedling is a medical procedure, and although it may offer cosmetic benefits, it can also cause burns, pigmentary changes, scarring, and other potentially serious complications. For this reason, Echelon's physician-led approach emphasizes careful patient selection and an individualized discussion of risks and alternatives. The goal is to improve skin quality without making unrealistic promises about dramatic lifting or permanent prevention of aging.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS: Improved appearance of skin texture, mild laxity, crepey skin, and selected irregularities.
COMMON TREATMENT AREAS: Abdomen, upper arms, thighs, knees, and other appropriately selected areas.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE: Treatment duration, number of sessions, discomfort management, and downtime vary. Redness, swelling, tenderness, and temporary skin changes may occur.
IDEAL CONSULTATION CANDIDATE: A patient with suitable skin and tissue characteristics who understands the benefits and risks of RF microneedling.
TREATMENT INVESTMENT: Available after assessment and confirmation that the service is currently offered.

ECHELON CLEAR | LASER VASCULAR REFINEMENT IN NYC
FOTONA ND LASER TECHNOLOGY
Echelon Clear is our targeted laser vascular refinement treatment concept for appropriately selected visible superficial blood vessels and vascular skin concerns. Small red or purple vessels may become more noticeable due to genetics, aging, sun exposure, and changes in the skin's vascular structures. Fotona Nd technology can be used with appropriate settings to deliver controlled energy to selected vascular targets, potentially reducing their visibility. Because vessels vary in diameter, depth, location, and underlying cause, the suitability of laser treatment depends on careful clinical assessment. Some visible leg veins may be associated with venous insufficiency or other medical conditions and require vascular evaluation rather than cosmetic laser treatment alone. At Echelon Medical & Aesthetics, our physician-led philosophy emphasizes distinguishing cosmetic concerns from symptoms that require additional medical investigation. Treatment recommendations are based on the type of vessel, skin characteristics, medical history, and expected risk-benefit profile.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS: Reduced visibility of selected superficial vessels and improved appearance of localized vascular redness.
POTENTIAL TREATMENT AREAS: Selected facial and body vessels according to clinical assessment and device indications.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE: Treatment may cause temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, bruising, or pigmentary changes. The number of sessions depends on the vessel and treatment response.
IDEAL CONSULTATION CANDIDATE: A patient with suitable superficial vascular lesions who has been evaluated for underlying medical concerns when indicated.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW: Laser treatment does not replace medical evaluation or management of venous disease.
TREATMENT INVESTMENT: Individualized by vessel type and treatment area.

ECHELON RADIANCE | FOTONA STARWALKER LASER PIGMENTATION & SKIN CLARITY IN NYC
ADVANCED LASER TREATMENT FOR SELECTED BENIGN PIGMENTED LESIONS
Echelon Radiance is our advanced laser pigmentation treatment concept utilizing Fotona StarWalker technology for selected benign pigmented lesions and skin clarity concerns. Sun exposure, inflammation, aging, and hormonal influences may contribute to visible discoloration on the face and body, particularly on frequently exposed areas such as the décolletage, shoulders, arms, hands, and upper back. Fotona StarWalker incorporates laser technologies that can target certain pigmented lesions through carefully controlled energy delivery. The suitability of treatment depends on pigmentation type, skin tone, lesion characteristics, medical history, and the specific laser settings available. Some conditions, including melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, may worsen after inappropriate laser treatment, while suspicious pigmented lesions require diagnostic evaluation rather than cosmetic removal. At Echelon, our approach begins with identifying the nature of the discoloration and determining whether laser treatment is appropriate. The objective is to improve the appearance of selected benign pigmentation concerns while maintaining realistic expectations and prioritizing skin safety.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS: Improvement in selected benign pigmented lesions, sun-related discoloration, and overall appearance of skin tone.
POTENTIAL TREATMENT AREAS: Décolletage, shoulders, arms, hands, back, and selected areas.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE: Treatment duration and number of sessions depend on lesion type, size, and response. Temporary redness, swelling, crusting, or pigmentation changes may occur, and sun protection is important.
IDEAL CONSULTATION CANDIDATE: A patient with appropriately evaluated benign pigmentation concerns.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW: Not every dark spot should be treated with a laser. Suspicious lesions require medical assessment.
TREATMENT INVESTMENT: Determined after examination.

ECHELON DRY | PHYSICIAN-DIRECTED HYPERHIDROSIS TREATMENT IN NYC
ADVANCED MANAGEMENT OF EXCESSIVE UNDERARM SWEATING
Echelon Dry is our physician-directed treatment concept for appropriately selected patients experiencing excessive underarm sweating, also known as primary axillary hyperhidrosis. Excessive sweating can interfere with clothing choices, professional activities, social interactions, and everyday comfort. Botulinum toxin injections can temporarily reduce sweat production by blocking the nerve signals that activate the sweat glands in the treated area. The duration of benefit varies by patient and product, and repeat treatment may be needed when symptoms return. Because excessive sweating can sometimes reflect an underlying medical condition, clinical evaluation is important, especially when symptoms are new, generalized, or accompanied by other health changes. At Echelon Medical & Aesthetics, the objective is to provide individualized medical assessment and discuss appropriate options for symptom management. Treatment availability, product selection, candidacy, and expected duration should be confirmed during consultation.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS: Reduced excessive underarm sweating, improved everyday comfort, and temporary symptom management.
TREATMENT AREA: Underarms.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE: The procedure involves multiple small injections. Temporary discomfort, bruising, or tenderness may occur. Treatment effects and duration vary.
IDEAL CONSULTATION CANDIDATE: A patient with appropriately evaluated primary axillary hyperhidrosis.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW: Secondary causes of excessive sweating may require separate medical evaluation.
TREATMENT INVESTMENT: Provided after assessment and confirmation of treatment availability.

THE ECHELON TREATMENT COMPARISON GUIDE
Choosing between body contouring, skin tightening, and collagen-remodeling procedures depends on identifying the primary aesthetic concern. Echelon Sculpt, utilizing Fotona TightSculpting®, focuses on selected localized fullness and mild skin laxity. Echelon Define emphasizes laser-based contour refinement without muscle stimulation. Echelon Firm & Contour uses Fotona Er SMOOTH® technology to support improvement in the appearance of mild skin laxity and crepey texture. Echelon Smooth focuses on selected skin texture concerns that may contribute to the visible appearance of cellulite, without mechanically releasing fibrous septal bands. Echelon Renew RF, when available, uses radiofrequency microneedling rather than laser energy to address selected texture and mild laxity concerns. Echelon EndoTight Contour, when available and clinically appropriate, involves a minimally invasive approach to selected tissue tightening and localized contour concerns, particularly in the submental and neck regions. Echelon Radiance focuses on selected benign pigmentation concerns using Fotona StarWalker, while Echelon Clear addresses suitable superficial vascular lesions. These procedures are not interchangeable, and the best treatment option depends on anatomy, skin type, medical history, risk tolerance, and desired results. A physician-led consultation is the most appropriate way to determine which approach may offer a reasonable balance of potential benefit, recovery, and risk.
THE ECHELON SIGNATURE BODY REJUVENATION PROGRAMS
ECHELON SILHOUETTE 360° | COMPREHENSIVE BODY REJUVENATION
Echelon Silhouette 360° is our signature personalized body rejuvenation concept for patients seeking a coordinated approach to selected concerns involving localized fullness, mild skin laxity, and uneven texture. Rather than treating each concern independently, this program considers how tissue distribution, skin elasticity, and surface quality influence the appearance of the body's natural contours. Depending on clinical suitability, the program may incorporate Fotona TightSculpting®, selected skin-remodeling approaches, and additional procedures when appropriate. Treatment sequencing, recovery intervals, and expected outcomes are individualized. The objective is to create a cohesive aesthetic plan that supports balanced, natural-looking refinement rather than unnecessary treatment combinations.
ECHELON CORE REFINEMENT | ABDOMINAL CONTOURING & SKIN REJUVENATION
Echelon Core Refinement is designed for patients concerned about localized abdominal fullness, mild skin laxity, and changes in abdominal skin texture. Aging, pregnancy, and weight fluctuations can affect the appearance of the abdomen through changes in both subcutaneous tissue and skin elasticity. A personalized assessment helps determine whether Fotona body contouring, laser skin remodeling, or an alternative approach is appropriate. Patients with postpartum concerns may require evaluation for diastasis recti, hernia, or other abdominal wall conditions that cannot be corrected through cosmetic laser treatment.
ECHELON ARM REFINEMENT | UPPER-ARM SKIN TIGHTENING
Echelon Arm Refinement focuses on the appearance of mild upper-arm laxity, crepey skin, and selected localized contour concerns. Because the upper arms may develop visible changes in skin quality with aging and fluctuations in body composition, treatment planning considers both tissue fullness and the degree of skin redundancy. Appropriate laser skin-remodeling options may support subtle improvements in skin texture and firmness, while substantial excess skin may require alternative treatment recommendations.
ECHELON LEG REFINEMENT | THIGH, KNEE & SKIN TEXTURE REJUVENATION
Echelon Leg Refinement offers individualized assessment of concerns involving the thighs, knees, and selected areas of the legs. Patients may present with mild laxity, uneven skin texture, localized fullness, benign pigmentation, or visible superficial vessels. Because these concerns have different causes, the treatment strategy may involve separate technologies rather than one procedure for every issue. The goal is to improve selected aspects of skin quality and appearance through appropriate, medically guided care.
ECHELON SKIN RENEWAL | COMPREHENSIVE BODY SKIN REJUVENATION
Echelon Skin Renewal is our personalized approach to body skin quality, focusing on selected concerns involving texture, mild laxity, and benign discoloration. Depending on treatment availability and clinical suitability, a plan may include Fotona Er SMOOTH®, Fotona StarWalker, or radiofrequency microneedling. The program emphasizes careful treatment selection, appropriate recovery intervals, and gradual improvement in skin appearance rather than excessive or unnecessary combination procedures.

REAL PATIENTS. REAL EXPERIENCES. REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS.
At Echelon Medical & Aesthetics, we believe that authentic clinical photography and genuine patient experiences can provide valuable insight into the aesthetic treatment process. Before-and-after photographs should represent actual Echelon patients who have provided appropriate consent and should be presented with consistent lighting, positioning, and timing. Each gallery entry should identify the procedure performed, treatment area, number of sessions, interval between images, and any relevant combination treatments. Photographs should not be digitally altered to exaggerate improvement, and the results shown should never be presented as guaranteed or typical for every patient. Verified testimonials can also help prospective patients understand the consultation experience, professionalism, communication, and follow-up care they may expect. Our commitment is to provide accurate information that supports informed decisions rather than relying on unrealistic promises or exaggerated transformations.
MEET YOUR PHYSICIAN | DR. NICOLE M. BATTY, MD, MBA, MSF, FACP, FASCP
AMERICAN BOARD-CERTIFIED PHYSICIAN | MEDICAL LEADERSHIP AT ECHELON MEDICAL & AESTHETICS
At the heart of Echelon Medical & Aesthetics is a philosophy that places medical expertise at the center of personalized aesthetic care. Dr. Nicole M. Batty, MD, MBA, MSF, FACP, FASCP, brings an extensive medical background and a commitment to individualized patient care to the practice's approach to healthcare and aesthetics. Her professional credentials reflect advanced medical education, business and financial training, and fellowship recognition. At Echelon, Dr. Batty's medical background informs an approach that recognizes the importance of anatomy, tissue biology, medical history, and individual patient factors when considering aesthetic treatment options. Rather than treating beauty as separate from health, the practice emphasizes careful evaluation, evidence-informed recommendations, and clear communication about the benefits and limitations of available procedures. This philosophy is especially important when selecting energy-based treatments, where appropriate patient selection, device parameters, and an understanding of potential complications are central to responsible care. For patients seeking physician-led medical aesthetics in Manhattan, Echelon offers a sophisticated approach built on personalized attention, clinical judgment, and respect for the individual's natural appearance.
THE SCIENCE OF BEAUTY. THE PRECISION OF MEDICINE.
YOUR ECHELON EXPERIENCE | WHAT TO EXPECT FROM CONSULTATION TO FOLLOW-UP
Your experience at Echelon Medical & Aesthetics begins with a personalized consultation designed to clarify your goals, understand your concerns, and determine which aesthetic options may be clinically appropriate. During the assessment, relevant medical history, medications, previous procedures, skin characteristics, anatomical findings, and treatment expectations are reviewed. The clinician evaluates whether the primary concern involves localized fullness, mild skin laxity, pigmentation, superficial vessels, uneven texture, or another issue requiring a different approach. When treatment is considered appropriate, the proposed procedure, anticipated number of sessions, expected recovery, potential complications, alternatives, and realistic range of outcomes are discussed. Patients also receive information about treatment costs and any recommended maintenance or follow-up. We believe informed decisions create a better aesthetic experience, and we encourage patients to ask questions, consider alternatives, and choose treatments that align with their priorities.
TREATMENT DURATION, RECOVERY & INVESTMENT
Because Echelon offers multiple technologies with different mechanisms and procedural requirements, treatment duration and recovery vary considerably. Noninvasive laser treatments may involve temporary warmth, redness, or swelling, while radiofrequency microneedling and minimally invasive laser-assisted procedures can require more substantial recovery. Similarly, the number of sessions, time until visible improvement, and longevity of results vary by procedure and patient. Pricing should reflect the actual treatment, anatomical area, and individualized plan. Specific session durations, treatment series, recovery guidance, and current consultation fees should be confirmed by Echelon before being displayed as fixed website information.
PATIENT SAFETY | MEDICALLY GUIDED AESTHETIC CARE
At Echelon Medical & Aesthetics, patient safety and informed consent are essential components of the aesthetic experience. Energy-based procedures are not appropriate for every individual, and candidacy may be influenced by medical conditions, medications, pregnancy status, skin characteristics, previous procedures, and other clinical considerations. Potential risks differ by technology and may include temporary redness, swelling, discomfort, pigmentary changes, burns, scarring, infection, or other complications. Minimally invasive procedures introduce additional considerations related to anesthesia, tissue injury, and recovery. Some concerns, such as suspicious pigmented lesions, symptomatic leg veins, significant abdominal wall abnormalities, or unexplained excessive sweating, may require medical evaluation before cosmetic treatment is considered. Our philosophy is to discuss the potential benefits and limitations of each procedure openly and to recommend treatment only when the anticipated benefits justify the associated risks. No aesthetic procedure can guarantee a particular result or permanently prevent the natural aging process.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT BODY CONTOURING & LASER SKIN TIGHTENING IN NYC

IS THERE DOWNTIME?
Recovery varies by procedure. Some noninvasive treatments involve limited downtime, while radiofrequency microneedling and minimally invasive laser procedures may require additional healing time.
ARE RESULTS PERMANENT?
The longevity of results varies. Aging, weight fluctuations, sun exposure, and individual biological factors can influence appearance over time.
