Start hereSkin Consultation in Midtown East, Manhattan
$150 15 Minutes
A skin consultation in Manhattan for anyone unsure where to start. In fifteen minutes, one to one, we look at your skin and hair goals, your history and what you already use, then give you a written plan and an honest opinion. The $150 is credited toward an eligible treatment booked the same day.
What It Is
A plan first, treatment second
Most people arrive with a concern and a few treatment names they have read about, but no idea which one actually fits. The consultation answers that before you spend money on the wrong booking.
We go through your goals, history, current products and past reactions, then look closely at your skin under examination light for hydration, barrier, texture and pigment. You leave knowing what to book, in what order, how long it will take, and what will not help.
It is the most useful first step at Skin Lab Clinic, and if you go ahead with an eligible treatment the same day, the $150 comes off the bill.
Consultation first, or book directly?
| Your situation | Best first step | Why |
|---|---|---|
| New to medical aesthetics | Start with a plan | A plan saves money on trial and error |
| Reactive or sensitised skin | Consultation | The cause often sits in your current routine |
| Choosing between a facial, microneedling or injectables | Consultation | Different concerns need different tools |
| Thinning hair | Start with a plan | Some causes need a doctor before any treatment |
| You know exactly what you want | Book the treatment | Your provider still assesses you on the day |
What You Get
What a skin analysis covers
Fifteen focused minutes, built around your skin rather than a treatment menu.
Skin analysis
Hydration, barrier, texture and pigment, assessed under light rather than guessed from a selfie.
Goal mapping
Your priorities, ranked by what matters to you, not by what is easiest to sell.
Reaction history
Products, medications and past treatments, because sensitivity often traces back to the routine.
Treatment plan
Which treatment, in what order, and how many sessions before results should be judged.
Realistic timeline
What changes in a week, what takes a course, and what no treatment here will fix.
Home routine advice
Sometimes taking products away helps more than adding new ones.
Hair and scalp concerns are covered too. Thinning hair is one of the most common reasons people book.
How It Works
Your fifteen minutes, step by step
You describe the concern in your own words: what bothers you, since when, and what you have tried.
Your routine, recent treatments, medications, allergies and reactions. Photos of your products help.
A close look at the skin itself: hydration, barrier, texture and pigment.
A recommended treatment or course, a timeline and what to expect. If doing less is the right answer, we say so.
What to bring to your consultation
- Clean skin, though light makeup is fine
- A list or photos of the products you use
- Notes on anything that stung, flushed or broke you out
- Your medications, and whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding
- A rough budget and any event date you are working toward
There is no obligation to book anything on the day.
What Comes Next
Where a consultation usually leads
The most common outcome. Your $150 is credited toward it.
For scarring, pigment and firmness you get a session count and spacing, so you can budget properly.
Irritated or over-exfoliated skin is calmed and stabilised before any active treatment.
If a dermatologist or your own doctor is the right next step, we tell you directly.
Is It Right For You
Who books a consultation first
If you already know what you want, you can book a treatment directly from our services and prices page. Otherwise, this is where to start.
A consultation suits you if
- You are new to medical aesthetics
- You have read about several treatments and feel stuck
- Your skin reacts easily and you are not sure why
- You are choosing between a facial, microneedling or injectables
- You have an event and a deadline to work back from
- You want an opinion on your routine, not a product sale
The $150, Explained
How the fee works
We charge for the visit because it is real clinical time with your skin. Here is how it comes back to you.
$150 for fifteen minutes with our clinical team.
Treatment, order, sessions and timeline, whether or not you book.
Book an eligible treatment the same day and the $150 is credited toward it.
What we will not do
We will not push you into a course you did not ask about, recommend a treatment that will not work for your concern, or sell you products to make the visit worth it.
If the honest answer is "change your cleanser and come back in a month", that is the answer you will get.

Common Questions
Your first visit, answered honestly
Is the $150 credited toward treatment?
Yes. If you book an eligible treatment on the same day, the $150 is credited toward it. If you decide not to book, you still keep your plan.
How long does the consultation take?
Fifteen minutes, one to one. If your case is more complex, we take the time it needs.
Do I have to book a treatment afterwards?
No. Some people book on the spot, others come back weeks later once they have thought it over. There is no obligation either way.
Can I discuss my hair as well as my skin?
Yes. Hair and scalp are covered, and thinning hair is a common reason to book. Scalp PRP may be an option, depending on the cause.
Will you tell me if a treatment is not right for me?
Yes. Sometimes the right answer is barrier repair first, a change to your routine, or a referral to a dermatologist. You will be told directly.
Can I book while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Yes. Tell us when you book, and bring any guidance from your doctor or midwife. Some treatments will be off the table until later, and we will say which.
What should I bring to a skin consultation?
Your products or photos of them, notes on past reactions, your medications and recent treatments, a rough budget and any event date. Clean skin is best, but light makeup is fine.
Who will I be seeing?
Consultations are with our clinical team. Injectable and PRP treatments are performed by a licensed provider of Michael Meighen, MD, NY, PLLC, and you are told who will treat you before you book.
