The Garden Medical Spa Is Raising the Bar for Aesthetic Care in New Jersey

Duncan Edwards 10 min read

A med-spa menu that runs from Botox and Hydrafacials to fractional lasers, radiofrequency microneedling, hair restoration, and IV therapy sounds more like something you would expect to find in Manhattan or Miami. Instead, South Jersey residents can find all of it much closer to home.

The Garden Medical Spa has been building that kind of one-stop aesthetic practice since 2014, pairing medical providers with aestheticians and technology-heavy treatments rather than relying on a handful of trendy services.

Today, the brand has five New Jersey locations spread across Voorhees, Sewell, Collingswood, Northfield, and Mullica Hill.

The appeal is pretty easy to understand. You can come in with a specific concern, whether that is acne, unwanted hair, fine lines, uneven pigmentation, or simply skin that looks more tired than you feel, and have several treatment paths available under one roof.

The Garden’s philosophy even has a refreshingly blunt name: “No Fluff. Just Results.”

South Jersey has no shortage of places promising better skin, but The Garden Medical Spa has had more than a decade to figure out what makes people come back.

Established in 2014, the practice built its identity around medical-grade evaluations, personalized treatment plans, and procedures the team describes as scientifically supported rather than simply fashionable.

That approach matters in a part of New Jersey where people are close enough to Philadelphia to have plenty of choices but would often rather skip the bridge traffic, parking hunt, and half-day production that can come with an appointment in Center City.

The Garden gradually created a South Jersey footprint instead, with offices now in Voorhees, Sewell in Washington Township, Collingswood, Northfield, and Mullica Hill. The mix of services also helps explain the growth. This is not a studio built around one star treatment.

The current menu covers neuromodulators such as Botox, dermal fillers, chemical peels, dermaplaning, Hydrafacial, IPL photofacials, laser hair removal, ResurFX fractional laser treatments, CO2 laser resurfacing, tattoo removal, traditional and radiofrequency microneedling, acne care, hair restoration, and several wellness-oriented offerings.

That breadth gives the practice a different feel from a place where every concern somehow ends with the same syringe.

Someone dealing with acne scars may need an entirely different strategy from a client worried about facial volume or pigmentation, and having multiple tools available makes that distinction possible.

The result is a business that feels very South Jersey in one important way: sophisticated without requiring a trip somewhere supposedly more sophisticated.

There is a big difference between choosing a facial and choosing a treatment that involves needles, lasers, or energy-based devices. That is where The Garden’s medical leadership becomes especially relevant.

Dr. John Mirmanesh, MD, helped found the practice and serves as its Chief Medical Officer, with the company highlighting his work in neuromodulators, fillers, and laser technologies after performing thousands of aesthetic treatments. He currently sees clients at the Voorhees and Northfield locations.

The team also includes Dr. Michael D. Mirmanesh, MD, the practice’s Medical Director and a California-trained plastic surgeon who completed his plastic surgery residency at the University of California, Davis.

The Garden says he has performed more than 3,000 procedures since 2020 and lists him at its Voorhees and Mullica Hill offices. Then there is Travis Laverne, MHS, PA-C, Director of Clinical Services and Chief of Laser Medicine, whose background includes advanced training in plastic surgery and laser and light therapies.

He developed the SmoothGlo, SmoothTone, and LipGlo treatment protocols used by the practice. The broader staff includes nurse practitioners and medical aestheticians with backgrounds spanning dermatology, internal medicine, corrective skincare, chemical peels, lasers, and acne treatment.

South Jersey native Brooke Impagliazzo, for example, is a board-certified family nurse practitioner with a dermatology background, while Gianna Orsimarsi is a dual board-certified acute care and family nurse practitioner trained in neuromodulators and fillers.

That layered team structure is important because aesthetic medicine is not simply beauty with fancier equipment.

Knowing who is performing a treatment, how they were trained, and why that particular treatment fits your concern should be part of the conversation.

From Injectables to Advanced Laser and Skin Treatments

Here is where the menu gets interesting. Sure, Botox and dermal fillers are available, but they are only the beginning.

The Garden also offers Hydrafacials, IPL photofacials, ResurFX fractional laser treatments, CO2 laser resurfacing, laser hair removal, tattoo removal, microneedling, radiofrequency microneedling, chemical peels, dermaplaning, hair restoration, and an Acne Bootcamp.

Translation: you could be dealing with crow’s feet, stubborn pigmentation, old acne marks, unwanted hair, or a tattoo that seemed like a better idea at 22, and the conversation does not automatically start and end with injectables.

Some of the technology is particularly advanced. The Garden’s booking system describes radiofrequency microneedling with Legend Pro as a collagen-stimulating treatment used for concerns including fine lines, acne scarring, discoloration, and uneven texture, with listed treatment pricing ranging from $1,200 to $3,000 depending on the plan.

ResurFX, a non-ablative fractional laser treatment, is listed between $750 and $3,500, with a series often recommended depending on the goal. SmoothGlo takes the combination approach even further by pairing IPL technology with radiofrequency microneedling to address several signs of skin aging in the same overall protocol.

Clients who want something gentler have plenty of options too. Hydrafacials, dermaplaning, peels, and other aesthetician-led treatments fill the space between a home skincare routine and more intensive procedures.

The point is not that everyone needs the biggest machine in the building. Quite the opposite.

Having a wide range of tools makes it easier to match the intensity of the treatment to the actual problem rather than treating every skin concern like a nail because somebody happens to own a hammer.

A face is not a template, and The Garden appears determined not to treat it like one. One of the clearest examples is its Garden Lift and Balance consultation, described as a full-face assessment that can combine injectables, lasers, energy-based treatments, skincare, and aging science into one customized plan.

The current booking system lists a $100 deposit for that consultation, applied toward selected services. That may sound like a small administrative detail, but the concept behind the appointment is more interesting: start with the person rather than the procedure.

Maybe someone walks in convinced they need filler under the eyes when skin quality is the bigger issue. Another person may have spent months buying brightening serums when a professional treatment for pigmentation makes more sense.

A good consultation should be where those assumptions get tested. The practice’s team structure supports that kind of mix-and-match thinking.

Nurse practitioner Nina Orsimarsi, who works in Mullica Hill, Sewell, and Voorhees, emphasizes individualized aesthetic treatment, while Gianna Orsimarsi describes her approach as personal rather than one-size-fits-all.

Medical aesthetician Christina Rosson focuses on corrective skincare for concerns such as acne and texture, while Dana D’Amico’s specialties include chemical peels, Hydrafacials, and acne care.

That variety matters because aesthetic goals can be surprisingly specific. “I want to look less tired” is not a diagnosis, and neither is “I want better skin.” A thoughtful provider has to figure out whether the underlying issue is volume, texture, pigment, laxity, breakouts, dehydration, or some combination of them.

Personalized care is one of those phrases businesses love to toss around, but here the treatment menu is broad enough that it can actually mean choosing a different route instead of changing only the dosage.

For years, there has been a certain South Jersey assumption that the really specialized beauty treatments require a drive toward Philadelphia, North Jersey, or New York. The Garden makes a pretty strong case that this is becoming outdated.

Its clinical team includes a plastic surgeon, an aesthetic physician, a physician associate specializing in advanced laser medicine, nurse practitioners, and medical aestheticians, all working across offices that are firmly on this side of the Delaware River.

Some of the credentials would not feel out of place at a large urban aesthetics practice.

Dr. Michael Mirmanesh trained in plastic surgery at UC Davis, while Travis Laverne has completed advanced work in laser and light therapies and lectures on energy-based aesthetic treatments. The Garden credits Laverne with creating its SmoothGlo, SmoothTone, and LipGlo protocols.

At the same time, the practice has not abandoned the services people want between major treatment sessions. You can still come in for skincare treatments, peels, Hydrafacials, acne-focused care, or dermaplaning rather than making every visit a major undertaking.

That combination is probably more useful than luxury for luxury’s sake. Someone in Washington Township can pursue advanced laser work without turning it into a day trip.

A Collingswood client can schedule skincare care close to home. Northfield gives Atlantic County residents an option that does not involve heading toward Camden County every time.

And Mullica Hill adds another convenient point for Gloucester County. It is less about pretending South Jersey is Manhattan and more about acknowledging that it does not need to be. The expertise and technology can come here instead.

The map may be the most practical part of The Garden’s growth story. Its five New Jersey offices now cover Voorhees, Sewell in Washington Township, Collingswood, Northfield, and Mullica Hill, giving clients options across Camden, Gloucester, and Atlantic County areas instead of concentrating everything in one town.

The hours are not identical, which is worth knowing before planning a visit. Voorhees has some of the broadest availability, opening from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Mondays and Tuesdays and even offering Sunday hours from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Collingswood stays open until 8 p.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays and is also open Sundays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sewell operates until 7 p.m. early in the week and opens Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., while Northfield offers Sunday hours but is closed Saturdays.

Mullica Hill currently operates Monday through Friday, with evening hours until 7 p.m. on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The providers rotate as well.

Dr. John Mirmanesh is listed in Voorhees and Northfield; Dr. Michael Mirmanesh and Travis Laverne are listed in Voorhees and Mullica Hill; Nina Orsimarsi works in Mullica Hill, Sewell, and Voorhees; and Gianna Orsimarsi serves Sewell and Northfield.

That means choosing a location may depend not only on which office is closest but also on the provider or treatment someone wants.

Still, five locations changes the basic equation. Advanced aesthetic care no longer has to mean crossing a bridge or scheduling an entire afternoon around traffic.

In South Jersey, it might simply mean figuring out whether Voorhees, Collingswood, Sewell, Northfield, or Mullica Hill is the easiest drive that day.
