What sets NJ Face apart from other practices?
At NJ Face, we take a comprehensive, foundational approach to facial aesthetics. Dr. Michel’s background as a dual board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon means he understands the face from the inside out—starting with the bones, not just the surface. While many cosmetic practices focus only on skin and soft tissue, we recognize that true rejuvenation begins at the structural level. Just like building a house requires a solid foundation and framework before the exterior can shine, we consider the facial bones the foundation, the muscles and fat the frame, and the skin the final layer. This integrated perspective allows us to create balanced, natural-looking results that respect both form and function—so patients don’t just look better, they feel more like themselves.
