Injectables & Facial Rejuvenation with Dr. Low
Long Island, New York Yee Cheng Low, MD
At most practices, your injectables are placed by an aesthetician, a nurse injector, or a physician assistant. At YCL Plastic Surgery, Dr. Low performs every non-surgical treatment personally.
Our Approach
Every Treatment. Performed by the Surgeon.
This is not a marketing position. It is a clinical one. The facial danger zones — where filler placed in the wrong plane causes serious complications — are defined by anatomy that Dr. Low taught as a medical student and works within surgically every week. He knows where your facial arteries run because he operates around them.
Our Approach
Non-surgical treatment is not a lesser version of surgery. It is a different tool, appropriate for different problems.
- Fine lines and dynamic wrinkles respond to neuromodulators
- Volume loss and hollowing respond to filler, or to fat grafting where the change is significant
- Skin quality, texture, and pigmentation respond to resurfacing and skincare
- Structural descent and excess skin respond only to surgery
Dr. Low will tell you which category your concern falls into — including where the honest answer is that injectables will not achieve what you want. Being able to offer both surgical and non-surgical options means there is no incentive to oversell either.
Treatments Offered
Non-Surgical at YCL
Every plan is built around the individual, never a one-size-fits-all approach.
Neuromodulators (Botox)
Neuromodulators temporarily relax targeted facial muscles to soften fine lines and dynamic wrinkles — the lines that appear with movement and expression, before they’ve had time to etch into resting skin.
ExploreDermal Fillers
Dermal fillers restore volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours using injectable gels — most commonly hyaluronic acid-based — placed to address specific areas of volume loss or to refine shape.
ExploreChemical Peels & Laser Treatments
Chemical peels and laser treatments address skin tone, texture, and pigmentation — concerns that come from the skin’s surface quality rather than from volume loss or structural descent, and that respond well to non-surgical treatment.
ExploreFacial Fat Grafting (Surgical)
Much of what reads as facial aging is volume loss rather than sagging.
