Precision Cellular Treatments for Timeless Results
Regenerative medicine represents an advanced category of aesthetic treatments designed to stimulate the body’s natural repair processes, enhance tissue quality, and promote long-term rejuvenation. Rather than simply targeting superficial signs of aging, regenerative therapies support cellular communication, collagen formation, and tissue renewal at a biological level.
At Rothaus Plastic Surgery in Manhattan’s Upper East Side, we offer a curated selection of regenerative treatments — including Secretome, Exosomes, PRP, and Nanofat — each chosen for its scientific merit, safety profile, and ability in our experience to enhance aesthetic outcomes. These therapies are used both independently and in combination with our comprehensive procedural offerings, including laser resurfacing, RF microneedling, surgical rejuvenation, and injectable treatments.
The result is a highly sophisticated, personalized approach to aesthetic medicine that focuses on optimizing skin health, improving healing, and supporting sustained, natural-looking rejuvenation.
Benefits of Regenerative Aesthetic Medicine
Patients incorporating regenerative treatments into their skincare and anti-aging plan may experience:
- Enhanced collagen + elastin production
- Faster healing following lasers, peels & microneedling
- Healthier, firmer, more radiant skin
- Longer-lasting procedural outcomes
- Improved skin texture, tone, and elasticity
- Natural, biologically driven rejuvenation
Regenerative medicine blends seamlessly into your maintenance routine, pre-procedure preparation, and recovery care, allowing for a truly elevated aesthetic experience.
Our Regenerative Treatment Portfolio
Secretome (Acorn)
One of the most advanced biologic treatments in aesthetic medicine.
Your hair follicles are a rich source of stem cells, which are gently collected and processed in a specialized lab to isolate your personalized secretome. This is a concentrated serum that contains your own exosomes, cytokines, growth factors, and signaling proteins. It’s your own biologic blueprint of youth, purified and used for different aesthetic treatments.
Ideal for:
- Facial rejuvenation
- Post-laser recovery
- Hair restoration
Pairs beautifully with:
Virtue RF microneedling, CO2 fractional laser resurfacing, injectable treatments, and hair restoration procedures
Why patients love it:
Fully personalized, extremely potent, and designed from your own biology — an ultra-luxury regenerative solution.
Exosomes
Cell-to-cell communication for enhanced regeneration.
Exosomes are microscopic messengers that carry proteins and growth factors that support tissue repair. Applied after procedures, they help optimize healing and rejuvenation.
Ideal for:
- Reducing downtime
- Boosting collagen stimulation
- Enhancing glow and skin quality
Pairs well with:
Helix laser, facials, RF microneedling (Morpheus8 / Virtue RF equivalent), microneedling, chemical peels
Nanofat
Stem-cell-rich regenerative fat concentrate.
Nanofat is produced from approximately 15-30 cc (equivalent of 1-2 tablespoons) of fat cells harvested during a small, local syringe liposuction procedure and processes them into a stem-cell-rich injectable liquid. Unlike traditional fat grafting, nanofat focuses on skin quality, texture, and regeneration, not volume.
Ideal for:
- Uneven and crepey texture
- Improving fine lines + scars
- Lower lid discoloration / darkness
Common combinations:
Laser resurfacing, surgical procedures, fat transfer, PRP or Secretome co-treatments
Real Patient Testimonials
I had 2 botched surgeries I thought my breast would never look normal, then i found Dr. Routhaus. (Who was highly recommended) He corrected the problem and I couldn’t be happier. He was very sympathetic to my situation, his knowledge & the options he provided to try and correct my problem put me at ease. I recommend him to anyone that I come into contact with looking to get any type of plastic surgery.
