Gender Affirming Care

What is Gender Affirming Care?
At Face Allies, we believe gender affirming care is for everyone. To be affirmed is to feel euphoric in your own skin, to be kind to yourself at every stage of your journey through life. Everyone deserves to love the skin they’re in and to feel confident.
We offer a variety of services to help achieve that, ranging from LED Light Therapy to assist in recovery from affirming procedures, Hair Reduction and Curation services, as well as creative usage of facial modalities to sculpt and define your happiest you!
LED Light Therapy
What is LED Light Therapy?
LED Light Therapy is one of the best treatments on the market. Completely non invasive, it uses light to treat and improve acne, fine lines and wrinkles, and can improve circulation & our body's natural healing processes.
How does LED Work?
LED (Light Emitting Diode) Light Therapy works by emitting certain light wavelengths (visible Blue & Red light, and invisible Infrared light) to the surface of the skin. Once those rays penetrate the skin, they activate the Mitochondria of those cells, which increases ATP production (the energy source for every living cell).
What is the ideal cadence to get the most out of LED Light Therapy?
While every session is going to provide a benefit, the ideal frequency of treatments depends on your goals and condition at first consultation.
For recovery and circulation, we recommend up to 4 sessions weekly, for acne, we recommend up to 2 weekly sessions. For anti-aging, we recommend up to 3 weekly sessions.
What makes our LED Therapy So Great?
Our LED Therapy is one of the most well-researched & clinically tested devices on the market, at the sweet spot of strength and comfort. To read even more direct from the manufacturer about the science of the Celluma device, click the link below.

Hair Curation / Removal
What is Gender Affirming Hair Curation and Reduction?
At Face Allies, we understand how integral hair is to your expression, and everyone desrves to have the hair of their dreams, where they want it. Our mission to support you starts with a consultation, where we assess your goals, skin type, and lifestyle to craft a treatment and home care regimen that makes it easy to see results.
Let's Talk Hair Reduction:
At Face Allies NYC, we believe in a measured, progressive approach to skincare. We work with an exciting new technology that enables long term hair reduction, with a gentler experience than laser that is safe for all skin types and skin tones, without any worry for hair density or natural hair color. The best part about our treatment is that it can be used alone, or can be a perfect complement to your laser or electrolysis treatment plan.

How Does Our Hair Reduction System Work?
Instead of damaging the hair root, like other hair removal systems, our treatment gradually shrinks the root so it shrivels up and stops growing. The process is similar to male pattern baldness which leads to permanent hair removal. It is kind and gentle on the skin and reduces hair growth without damaging the surrounding tissue.
The nutrient engineering in No Grow is carried out by a new breakthrough active compound Isoquinolinium Bromide – which safely recreates the conditions found in the matrix bulb of the hair root at the onset of male pattern baldness. Growth of new hair is reduced every time you use the cream.

Am I a good fit for Hair Reduction Services?
Our system is ideal for clients looking for a laser, wax, or shaving alternative. Our system also helps to preserve hair reduction results while stretching longer between laser sessions. There are some contraindications, which will be discussed during your consultation.
