An Author, journal publisher and lecturer Dr. Jacono applies his techniques into his philanthropy performing pro-bono surgery on victims of domestic violence and traumatic events leading to facial injuries and travels around the world performing reconstructive plastic surgery on individuals; mostly children who have been disfigured by birth defects, trauma, war and cancer.
Dr. Jacono known for a large celebrity following is a collector of fine art which he enjoys and finds helpful in the study of aesthetics within the creative process of knowing how to apply effective procedures to an individual resulting in a pleasing, younger and healthier look. Lately there are alot of cosmetic surgeons that are into the natural look; well if we wanted to look our age why visit a cosmetic surgeon? Dr. Jacono is the person you want for a noticeable yet soft anti-aging difference.
Dr. Jocono’s new Manhattan office is filled with framed art within beautiful & spacious surroundings. There are 2 waiting rooms, art books and refrigerators stocked with snacks & beverages to make the waiting easier. there were a lot of patients from NYC and outer boroughs waiting patiently to see the Dr. that had me feeling excited for the forehead horizontal lines, glabellar creases between the eyebrows, jowl and neck botox procedure.
When I was called in Dr. Jacono was pleasant, personable and super fast before I could feel the many needle prick injections in my face and neck using a large supply of botox (good for stubborn muscles) then just like that he was done. My comment was “wow your finished already”? He replied with a laugh. I could see my results the next day and continued to lose sight of my lines the days following. The result is my lines are barely there they were a 4 on the scale and now a 0-1 and that’s considered very good since this means I don’t have to return to get a touch up and that makes me very happy.

The salon sits on a quiet block in trendy Williamsburg, Brooklyn and owned by Jill Syslo medical beauty technician and one of the founders of Sacred Skincare. Jill has transcended her beauty experience in esthetics, science and atmosphere into her new salon space with abundance of lighting through large storefront windows and other touches including soft music, abundance of plants and wine offered for the all around beauty experience. Since Jill has been in charge of hiring beauty experts for many years she understands what it takes to also be a good hairdresser and hires the best for luxe hair services.
I had a consultation with stylist/colorist James; a calm, friendly and patient hairdresser who came to the conclusion to give me a style-cut/treatment and a color blend tone-down since my highlights were looking dated and too bright for my skin tone. James was a total professional loving the results with the way my hair walked the fine line of edge and sophistication for a younger look. I also had a great time conversing with James on my type of hair, products to use and the salon world throughout my time in his chair.
If you want a professional salon and friendly zen like atmosphere go to Sanctuary Salon and leave looking and feeling refreshed all for a reasonable price within a large menu of hair services.

The property includes breakfast and spacious country decorated rooms that hold a dining table, couch, and mini kitchen perfect for home cooking or heating up restaurant leftovers.
