SPRING 2025 MA G A Z I N E THE MODERN MOTHER Florals by TC Collective DesignTAKE A JOURNEY TOWARDS LOOKING & FEELING YOUR BEST WITH CELEBRITY PLASTIC SURGEON DR. STEPHEN T. GREENBERG An icon in cosmetic enhancement and correction, he meets the needs of patients from today’s top stars to the soccer mom next door. He has performed thousands of procedures ranging from breast augmentation, breast reduction and breast lifts to tummy tucks, liposuction, facelifts, eyelid lifts, neck lifts, full body lifts, modern mommy makeovers and injectable treatments. Dr. Greenberg is a proponent of combining cutting-edge technology with surgical procedures to provide the most effective outcomes. “I want my patients to feel good about themselves, and I always strive to provide the most natural looking results coupled with minimal recovery time. Many of my patients tell me after their procedure that they have a newly found confidence which has prompted them to go for that new job or promotion, get back into the dating scene and start to wear the clothing they always dreamed of. Oftentimes, they tell me that no one can pinpoint that they have had a procedure, they only notice how refreshed, youthful and vibrant they look.” 844.486.0005 @DRSTEPHENTGREENBERG GREENBERGCOSMETICSURGERY.COM REQUEST YOUR COMPLIMENTARY CONSULTATION SOUTHAMPTON MANHATTAN SCARSDALE PRINCETON WOODBURY SMITHTOWN BOCA RATON DUBAI 17 World of Exosomes 18 The Ultimate Butt Lift 21 Vital Role of Surgical Aftercare 22 The Body You’ve Always Wanted 23 Client Advocacy 25 One-Day Recovery Breast Augmentation 26 Secret to Youthful Hands 29 Lindsay‘s List 31 Understanding the Value of Medical Grade Skincare 32 Short Haircuts for Aging Women 33 Men’s & Boys’ Haircare Tips 34 Sourcing Hair for Hair Extensions 37 Hormones & Color 39 Inked Icons 41 Eric Taylor’s Must Haves 42 Who’s Wearing Who? 43 Gen Art & The Future of Fashion Conversation with CEO Keri Rokos 46 Timeless 90’s Fashion 49 Chinese Medicine and Eating with the Seasons 50 Cortisol Chaos 52 Spring Crystals 53 Finding Glow & Peace 55 Spring Awakening 56 Were You There? 57 See You There... 59 Beautiful Spaces 61 Miss Long Island Pageant 63 Diversifying Your Social Media Strategy 64 Trendsetters Guide On Th e COver | Runway Couture, bellmore Photography by Katherine Nuñez @KatherineNunez.photo Set Design & Floral by TC Collective Design @tccollectivedesign Hair by Jo Marie @jo_hair_and_beauty & Samantha Nicole @samanthanicolebeauty Makeup by Gina Zito & Kayla Palacios of Gina Zito Beauty @ginazitobeauty MA G A Z I N E Long Island Beauty Award Finalists COVER Runway CoutureCO-Publish ers Lindsay Aliseo & Dawn Boyle Kostakis EditOr-in-Chief Lindsay Aliseo art DirectOr Stacey Kruk-Damiano editOr Barbara Mims PrOductiOn & DistributiOn Schneps Media Sales DirectOr Dawn Boyle Kostakis Sales Executive Brandy McLam COver PhOtO ShOOt Photographer Katherine Nuñez Hair by Jo Marie & Samantha Nicole Makeup by Gina Zito & Kayla Palacios Floral Arrangements by TC Collective Design Set Directors Lindsay Aliseo & Dawn Boyle Kostakis Spring 2025 COntributOrs Credits If you are a business, looking to get involved and stay informed with Beauty Affair or looking for information regarding having your event covered in a future issue scan the QR: © 2025 by Leenex Media.
