Why choose NexGenEsis?
Every treatment plan begins with you: your health history, your goals, and what matters most in your daily life.
A careful evaluation first
We take time to understand what’s going on before we talk about treatment. Sometimes that means recommending a different kind of care.
Clear explanations
We explain each option in plain language, including what it involves, what it may help with, and its limits.
A plan built for you
No two plans are identical. Your provider recommends options based on your evaluation, not a package.
Attentive follow-up
We check in on how you’re doing and adjust your plan when it makes sense.

Good care starts with a careful evaluation, an honest explanation, and a plan built around your life, not a package.
It’s time to give your body goals the green light.
Emerald Laser by Erchonia is FDA-cleared for non-invasive circumference reduction in individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of up to 40. It uses a low-level green laser with no needles, heat or freezing, and no downtime.
Before you begin, a provider reviews your goals and health history and explains how a program is planned, what results may look like, and how body contouring differs from medical weight loss.
- Non-invasive, hands-free sessions
- A program planned around your goals
- Clear guidance on realistic results
Body contouring is not a weight-loss treatment. Results vary. Looking for medical weight management?
Natural-looking results begin with understanding your skin.
NexGenEsis Aesthetics brings a thoughtful, Korean-informed philosophy to facial rejuvenation and hair restoration: assess carefully, treat gradually, and aim for results that look like you, refreshed.

Google reviews
“I had chronic pain in both knees and my left shoulder. I felt I tried everything from physical therapy, exercises, stretching, acupuncture, massages, chiropractors, OTC pain relievers, etc., and I felt only temporary relief. I was afraid my final option was a knee replacement. I heard about NexGenEsis, and thought I’d give it a chance. After a year of treatment, I feel that I am pain free. I had positive results and the treatment was worth it.”
“My husband suffered 30+ years with lower back pain. He went through various types of treatments for temporary relief. The alternate was surgery which we did not accept. We contacted NexGenEsis and have not regretted it since. The only regret is not contacting NexGenEsis sooner. The very first treatment was a miracle, the pain went away and my husband couldn’t remember the last time he was pain free. He completed all treatments which restored his life. He can do things without suffering. We are forever grateful to NexGenEsis for restoring a pain free life. A great MAHALO to the entire staff for the professionalism and care we received throughout this worthwhile journey.”
“The staff was extremely friendly. They explained their services and options to make you feel comfortable and was never pushy. If you are looking for options other than surgery, give them a call. 4 months after procedure, range of motion 100x better and pain level very minimal.”

Common questions.
Is this covered by insurance?
Our services are self-pay, and we accept HSA and FSA cards. Whether a service is eligible depends on your plan. Our team will explain costs for your specific plan before you commit.
How do I know if I’m a candidate?
That’s exactly what your consultation or evaluation is for. Your provider will review your health history and goals, and if a treatment isn’t a good fit, we’ll tell you and explain why.
Do you offer financing?
Financing may be available to qualified applicants through CareCredit and other financing partners, subject to credit approval. Our team can explain how to apply.
Is the first consultation free?
For joint and nerve care, yes: your first step is a free phone consultation with our team. For aesthetics, hair, Emerald Laser, intimate wellness and weight management, you start with an in-clinic consultation. Any fee depends on the service, and we’ll tell you before you book.
Will my appointment be confirmed when I submit the form?
Not yet. Your preferred date and time is a request. A member of our team will contact you to confirm availability and next steps.
