A Different Kind of First Visit
If you've been considering aesthetic treatment and you've been doing your research you already know that not all providers are the same. The difference between a good result and a great one isn't the product. It's the clinician behind it, the philosophy guiding the treatment, and the depth of experience informing every decision made in that room.
To make your first visit easier, we're offering 10% off your first treatment at Dr. Cris Studio with the code GLOW10. Apply it at booking or mention it at your consultation.
But before you book, we want you to understand what you're actually walking into because once you do, most patients tell us the same thing: going back to a regular medspa simply isn't an option anymore.
Where This All Started: Rio de Janeiro
Dr. Cris Andrade didn't train in a generic aesthetic medicine program. She trained in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil the city that is, without exaggeration, the world's cradle of aesthetic medicine.
Brazil has produced more internationally recognized plastic surgeons and aesthetic innovators than any other country on earth. The techniques that are now standard in New York medspas facial balance , harmonization, proportional analysis, non-surgical lifting, regenerative protocols were pioneered and refined in Brazil decades before they reached the US market. Rio de Janeiro, specifically, is where the world's most celebrated aesthetic surgeons built their practices, where the most advanced techniques were developed, and where the standard of care for facial rejuvenation was set at a level that most of the world is still catching up to.
Dr. Cris trained and practiced in that environment. She absorbed not just the techniques, but the philosophy: that aesthetic medicine, done correctly, is about proportion, harmony, and biological understanding not about filling, freezing, or following trends.
She brought that standard to Madison Avenue. And it shows in every result.
Why Patients Don't Go Back
We hear this often sometimes in the treatment room, sometimes in a follow-up message weeks later. A patient who came in for a consultation, or for a single treatment, and then realized that what they'd been receiving elsewhere wasn't what they thought it was.
It's not that other providers are bad. It's that the gap between average and exceptional is wider than most patients realize until they've experienced both sides of it.
Here's what that gap looks like in practice:
- A full-face assessment before anything is touched. Dr. Cris evaluates your facial proportions, anatomy, and skin quality as a whole before recommending a single treatment. Most medspas skip this entirely and go straight to the product.
- A treatment plan, not a menu. You leave with a clear understanding of what was done, why, and what comes next not a receipt and a vague sense that something happened to your face.
- Protocols that go deeper than the injection. Pre-care that begins 30–60 days before a procedure. Post-care that includes hyperbaric oxygen therapy immediately after CO2 laser. Nutritional guidance that supports your skin's healing biology. These aren't extras — they're the standard.
- Results that look like you. The Brazilian aesthetic philosophy that Dr. Cris trained in is built on proportion and harmony, not volume and correction. The goal is always a version of you that looks rested, balanced, and natural not a version of you that looks like you've had work done.
- 15+ years of international experience in the room with you. Not a PA following a protocol. Not an injector who completed a weekend course. Dr. Cris personally performs or directly oversees every treatment at the studio.
Once patients experience this level of care, the idea of returning to a provider who doesn't offer it who doesn't assess the full face, who doesn't explain the reasoning, who doesn't prepare and support the skin before and after feels like a significant step backward. Not because those providers are doing something wrong, but because the standard has shifted.

The standard of care at Dr. Cris Studio reflects that background in every treatment.
