The Art of Living Well: Longevity Beyond the Mirror
By Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld
Park Avenue Dermatology and Non-Surgical Rejuvenation Center, 629 Park Avenue, New York City
There are places in this world where the body still obeys its natural rhythm, where age does not erode but matures into beauty. Sardinia, Okinawa, Nicoya, Ikaria, and Loma Linda stand as living testaments to this truth. These so-called Blue Zones hold the highest concentrations of centenarians on earth. They live longer not because of miracle pills or miracle serums but because of the miracle of balance. They move daily. They eat what the land provides. They rest when it is dark and rise when it is light. They share meals and laughter with people who know their names. They have not forgotten the simple truth that to live fully is to live well.
In Manhattan, my work is dedicated to the science and art of rejuvenation. I have spent decades restoring faces and confidence through non-surgical innovation and precision aesthetic medicine. I have lifted, sculpted, and refined thousands of faces with procedures that defy the passage of time. Yet there is something more profound than any laser, filler, or thread lift. The greatest rejuvenation does not come from a syringe. It comes from how you live.
I have lived this philosophy my entire adult life. In my seventies, I feel as though I inhabit the body and energy of a man decades younger. This is not vanity. It is biology rewarded by discipline. It is the outcome of movement, nutrition, purpose, and joy.
Science has made the case clear. A sedentary life filled with processed food and chronic stress breaks the body on a cellular level. Inactivity shortens telomeres, the protective caps at the ends of our DNA. Processed foods flood the bloodstream with inflammation that accelerates every known marker of aging. Sleep deprivation disrupts hormones, thickens the waistline, and dulls the mind. Social isolation alters immunity and raises mortality risk as sharply as smoking a pack of cigarettes a day. The modern world calls this progress. Biology calls it surrender.
Research on Blue Zones underscores this. Studies show that the regions characterised by exceptional longevity share common features: regular physical movement integrated into daily life, predominantly plant-based diets, strong social ties, a sense of purpose, and rest patterns respectful of the body’s rhythm. News-Medical+4PMC+4Healthline+4 In these communities genetics may account for only 20-30 % of longevity; lifestyle appears to account for the rest. News-Medical+1
Consider now the post-COVID era. The pandemic forced many of us into our homes, tethered to screens, remote in work and often in spirit. In this world the body becomes the spectator of its own decline. Many spend twelve hours a day seated before a glowing monitor, shoulders rounded, metabolism slowing, faces illuminated by artificial light instead of the sun. Meals became deliveries, sleep patterns collapsed, and community shrank into the size of a video frame. Research finds that during the pandemic working from home significantly reduced physical activity and increased sedentary behaviour. MDPI+2PMC+2 The combination of forced sedation and remote routine has a synergistic negative impact on obesity risk and long-term health outcomes. Nature+1
You play, you pay. The body always collects its debt.
But it is not too late to reverse the direction. The body remains an instrument of forgiveness. It remembers how to heal when given the chance. When you move, circulation restores the glow to the skin. When you eat clean food, inflammation cools and the microbiome strengthens. When you sleep deeply, growth hormone rises and the body repairs. When you connect with others, oxytocin surges and cortisol falls. Every act of care is a message to your cells: live longer.
At Park Avenue Dermatology, I tell my patients that the journey toward youth must begin long before they sit in the chair. Non-surgical rejuvenation, fillers, lasers, regenerative medicine can elevate the canvas, but the vitality beneath must already be alive. You cannot restore vibrancy to the skin if the spirit beneath is stagnant. You cannot correct a face that reflects exhaustion from within. Medicine can enhance youth, but lifestyle sustains it.
In the Blue Zones they walk instead of sit. They garden, cook, laugh, and eat slowly. Their food is simple yet rich in nutrients. Their days are structured by purpose rather than pressure. Their longevity is not measured in years but in quality of living. When scientists examine their diets and habits, they find a pattern of movement, community, and meaning. Brown Health+2PMC+2 The body thrives because it was designed to move, connect, and rest, not to click and scroll.
The post-COVID generation risks forgetting this. Working remotely has convenience but it has also dismantled the social fabric that keeps people alive. When every meeting is virtual and every friendship is digital, the senses dull and the nervous system loses its balance. The absence of movement means slower lymphatic flow, poorer insulin regulation, and diminished muscle tone. The absence of sunlight lowers vitamin D, serotonin, and immune resilience. We are designing a future where people may live online but die early in reality.
For those seeking youth the lesson is not complicated. You must live the life your body was built to live. Move every day. Swim, walk, lift, stretch, dance. Eat foods that existed before factories. Sleep as if it were medicine, because it is. Surround yourself with people who bring peace rather than chaos. Let laughter be your oxygen. Make beauty the by-product of health, not the substitute for it.
My practice is rooted in this philosophy. When I perform a liquid facelift, a collagen-stimulation treatment, or advanced laser rejuvenation, I see it as partnership with the patient’s biology. The artistry of aesthetic medicine works best when it harmonises with a life of movement and intention. The skin is an organ of memory. It reflects the choices made every day. The fountain of youth is not in the vial; it is in the way you live between appointments.
Longevity is the architecture of discipline. To live long and beautifully requires the same patience and precision as great art. You must sculpt each day with purpose. In my seventies I have found that the reward for discipline is not simply looking young. It is feeling alive. That is the true art of living well.

Anti Aging NYC | Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld | Liquid Facelift and Non-Surgical Nose Job
Anti-Aging with Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld
629 Park Avenue, New York City
The Clinical Philosophy
Aging is neither sudden nor accidental. It is a progression governed by biology: the slow unraveling of collagen fibers, the diminishing elasticity of elastin, the steady depletion of hyaluronic acid, and the gradual weakening of mitochondrial energy. The skin barrier becomes fragile, vessels lose tone, and oxidative stress accumulates silently within tissues.
To treat aging is to understand its machinery. Each wrinkle, each shift in contour, is the outward expression of cellular decline. At 629 Park Avenue, I address these changes with a philosophy that is both clinical and humanistic. We restore where volume is lost, protect where barriers have thinned, and rekindle cellular vigor where exhaustion has set in.
I am in my seventies, though I am consistently mistaken for a man twenty to thirty years younger. This is not the result of luck or genetics but the deliberate orchestration of medicine, lifestyle, and discipline. My program rests on four pillars: advanced dermatologic treatments, structured exercise, precise nutrition, and a supplement regimen informed by evidence and always reviewed in the context of overall health.
Treatments that Restore Structure
Liquid Facelift
The face ages because volume declines, ligaments loosen, and skin thins. The liquid facelift corrects these changes by reintroducing structure with dermal fillers. Hyaluronic acid–based injectables replenish the cheeks, restore midface support, soften nasolabial folds, and refine the jawline. When combined with collagen-stimulating agents such as poly-L-lactic acid or calcium hydroxylapatite, the treatment not only corrects but triggers the skin to produce its own proteins anew. The effect is not a mask but a restoration, youth returned without distortion.
Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
The nose anchors the face. Subtle changes in angle or projection can shift the entire balance of expression. Through carefully placed micro-injections of hyaluronic acid, dorsal humps can be softened, bridges refined, and tips elevated. This non-surgical approach achieves proportion in minutes, with minimal risk and no recovery period.
Comprehensive Skin Renewal
Skin reflects health at the cellular level. Lasers stimulate controlled injury, prompting fibroblasts to remodel collagen and elastin. Biostimulatory fillers extend this process, reinforcing dermal strength. Hydration therapies replenish hyaluronic acid, restoring suppleness. Over time, texture refines, pores diminish, and luminosity returns.
Nutrition and Exercise: The Foundation
Procedures may correct, but daily living sustains.
-
Protein: Provides proline, glycine, and lysine for collagen synthesis.
-
Polyphenols: Found in berries, green tea, and red wine, they reduce oxidative damage by stabilizing free radicals.
-
Omega-3 fatty acids: Modulate inflammation, protect endothelial function, and reinforce lipid membranes.
-
Hydration: Maintains cellular metabolism and dermal turgor.
Exercise is indispensable. I swim 2 miles each day, sustaining cardiovascular output and mitochondrial density. Resistance training prevents sarcopenia, supports bone density, and stimulates anabolic hormones such as growth hormone and IGF-1. Mobility and balance exercises preserve function, reducing risk of falls and injury.
Supplements in Practice
The supplement cabinet is a clinical arsenal. Each bottle has purpose, each dose a target. Yet supplementation must always be personal, tailored to an individual’s medical history, labs, and medications. Patients must review every regimen with their primary care physician.
Cellular Energy and Mitochondria
-
Creatine: Recycles ATP in muscle and brain, supporting strength, endurance, and cognition. Studies suggest it may slow sarcopenia and aid neural resilience.
-
Acetyl L-Carnitine: Transports fatty acids into mitochondria, enhancing energy production and offering neuroprotective benefits in aging nerves.
-
Coenzyme Q10 (200 mg): A critical cofactor in mitochondrial electron transport. Supports cardiovascular health and functions as a lipid-soluble antioxidant.
Skin, Hair, Nails, and Connective Tissue
-
Collagen peptides (powder and capsules): Hydrolyzed peptides stimulate fibroblasts, improve dermal thickness, and strengthen ligaments and tendons.
-
Multi-collagen blends: Deliver type I, II, III, V, and X collagen for comprehensive connective tissue support.
-
Vitamin C: Essential cofactor in collagen hydroxylation; neutralizes free radicals generated by UV light.
-
Hyaluronic acid (oral): Maintains skin hydration, enhances viscoelasticity, and supports synovial fluid in joints.
-
Ceramides and phytoceramides: Rebuild intercellular lipid layers of the epidermis, reducing transepidermal water loss.
-
Biotin (10,000 mcg): Strengthens keratin proteins, improving hair density and nail resilience.
Circulation, Nerves, and Cognition
-
Ginkgo biloba: Enhances cerebral perfusion, potentially improving memory and concentration.
-
Vitamin B12: Prevents anemia, preserves nerve function, and is critical as absorption declines with age.
-
Vitamin K2: Directs calcium deposition into bone while reducing vascular calcification.
Vision and Ocular Nutrition
-
Ocuvite Adult 50+: Provides lutein and zeaxanthin to protect the macula, with antioxidants to defend retinal tissue against oxidative light injury.
Foundational Nutrition
-
Omega-3 fish oil (EPA and DHA): Cardiovascular, neurological, and dermatologic support.
-
Calcium with Vitamin D3: Maintains skeletal density and supports immune regulation.
-
Multivitamin for men 50+: Fills micronutrient gaps in daily intake.
How I Organize the Day
Morning
Collagen peptides, vitamin C, biotin, hyaluronic acid, phytoceramides, multivitamin, B12, K2, calcium with D3, Ocuvite.
Midday or Pre-Workout
Creatine, acetyl L-carnitine, omega-3, CoQ10, ginkgo biloba. Training follows: swimming, resistance exercise, and balance work.
Evening
Multi-collagen complex, ceramides, and magnesium for recovery.
Safety and Clinical Oversight
Supplements are not benign. They interact with prescription medications, influence clotting, alter absorption, and affect hormone balance. Anticoagulants, thyroid hormones, and diabetes medications are common points of conflict. Every patient must bring their bottles to their physician and undergo medication reconciliation. What is beneficial for one may be hazardous for another.
A Living Example
To advocate a method without living it is hollow. I have lived it. My face and body are the testimony: a man in his eighth decade of life carried with the energy and appearance of mid-life. Decades of training, clinical knowledge, and structured habits converge in the mirror. The proof is not abstract. It is visible. It is repeatable. It is available to any patient willing to walk the same disciplined path.
Call to Action
For a program that unites science, artistry, and discipline, contact 212-644-4484 or request a consultation online. Bring your medications and supplements. Together we can design a regimen that is not only effective but safe, not only cosmetic but profoundly restorative.

Syringoma Removal NYC – Board-Certified Dermatologist Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld
Syringoma Removal in NYC
Advanced Dermatologic Care with Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld, Board-Certified Dermatologist
Understanding Syringomas
Syringomas are benign sweat gland tumors, most commonly appearing as small, firm, flesh-colored to yellowish papules around the lower eyelids. Though medically harmless, their prominence in such a delicate and visible location often leads to cosmetic concern, particularly when they cluster or enlarge. Patients frequently mistake syringomas for milia or xanthelasma; however, their persistence and distribution pattern necessitate evaluation by a specialist with deep clinical and aesthetic expertise.
Why Expertise Matters
Eyelid skin represents one of the thinnest and most unforgiving canvases in human anatomy. Effective treatment requires a mastery of both dermatologic surgery and aesthetic judgment. Overly aggressive removal risks scarring, pigment alteration, or textural irregularity. Conversely, insufficient treatment may leave residual lesions and patient dissatisfaction.
At his Park Avenue practice, Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld—board-certified dermatologist and internationally recognized authority in cosmetic dermatology—provides a highly nuanced approach to syringoma management. Drawing upon decades of clinical practice in New York City, he integrates diagnostic precision with cutting-edge treatment modalities designed to maximize clearance while preserving the natural elegance of the periocular region.
Treatment Options
Dr. Rothfeld tailors syringoma therapy to the individual patient, considering lesion morphology, skin type, and personal goals. Options may include:
-
Laser Resurfacing (CO₂ or Erbium): Enables precise vaporization of superficial syringomas with minimal disruption to surrounding tissue.
-
Electrosurgical Microdissection: Controlled energy application allows lesion-by-lesion refinement, particularly for clustered growths.
-
Chemical or Surgical Excision: Reserved for select cases requiring targeted removal of larger or refractory lesions.
Adjunctive measures, such as topical therapies or staged procedures, may be recommended for patients with extensive involvement.
The Park Avenue Difference
Patients seek Dr. Rothfeld not merely for lesion removal but for the assurance of natural, scar-minimized outcomes. His practice philosophy emphasizes:
-

Frequently Asked Questions About Syringomas
Are syringomas permanent?
Yes. Syringomas do not resolve on their own. Once they develop, they persist unless treated. While benign, their location and appearance often make patients pursue cosmetic removal.
Can syringomas recur after removal?
They may recur, particularly in individuals predisposed to developing them. Dr. Rothfeld employs advanced techniques designed to minimize recurrence while preserving the integrity of the surrounding eyelid skin.
Is syringoma treatment painful?
Most procedures are performed under local anesthesia or with topical numbing agents. Patients generally describe the experience as comfortable, with only mild, temporary irritation during healing.
Will removal leave scars?
When performed by an expert, scarring is minimal to nonexistent. Dr. Rothfeld’s expertise in cosmetic dermatology ensures meticulous care to maintain the natural contour and tone of the eyelid region.
Who is a candidate for syringoma removal?
