What types of aging wellness support does Modern Age offer?
Right now, Modern Age supports aging wellness needs across skin, hair, hormone, and bone health. We chose each of those categories deliberately with a holistic approach to the most common concerns. The first signs of aging typically appear in your skin. Hair loss coincides with life events such as stress, hormonal changes, pregnancy and aging. 40% of women report seeing hair loss by the age of 40. A focus on bone density earlier can set you up for success in later life. Hormones impact every aspect of our lives: from how we wake to how we sleep; our mental clarity; our libido; our energy; our appetite; our moods. When something with our hormones is off, it usually shows up as a problem with something else — exhaustion, weight gain, hair loss, skin tone and texture. Addressing these problems starts with focusing on the root cause. Our goal is to help our customers not just treat symptoms, but also to understand what’s causing those symptoms, particularly as our bodies change as we get older.
What are your top treatments?
Our top treatments are Botox & Wrinkle Relaxers, IV Drip Therapy: Skin Health, IV Drip Therapy: Energy, and IV Drip Therapy: Stress.
Who can use Modern Age?
Modern Age helps customers with aging needs starting in their 30s and up. Anyone with a concern or question about their aging wellness can book an appointment at Modern Age.
Is Modern Age just for women?
No, while many of our offerings are for women, aging is a gender agnostic journey. Modern Age’s approach is one of inclusivity - we can help anyone take control of their aging wellness journey. We provide treatments, prescriptions and over the counter medications to help address their concerns.
What is subjective age?
Subjective age is how old you feel. A growing body of research shows that lowering your subjective age leads to better outcomes — better memory, greater strength, and younger brain age, to name a few. Many factors contribute to how old you feel. At a high level, they fall into categories that impact your visible age, psychological age, and lifestyle age. We will soon offer an assessment that determines your subjective age and gives you personalized recommendations to help address areas that are in your control.
Are you hiring?

I learned Modern Age offers a complimentary bone density scan. What can I expect?
Our bone density scan is fast, safe and easy. Takes about 5 minutes! Our scanning device uses ultrasound technology, not radiation, to measure bone density. Your MA clinician will place warm gel on a small portion of your forearm which allows the scanning device to obtain a reading. Your results will then be shared on a computer screen and after your scan, your clinician will discuss your results and recommend a personal plan based on your results.
Prescriptions
I am not familiar with the medications listed on the site. How do I know which prescription is right for me?
To get started with our prescriptions, please book a general consultation either in person in our studio or virtual. In this consultation, a Modern Age physician will discuss your goals and then create a personalized plan that addresses multiple aspects of the aging process, including skin & hair health, hormones, metabolism and other biological factors.
If I know what prescription I’m interested in, how do I get started?
Navigate to the prescription page you are interested in and click the get started button. Our simple booking tool will help you schedule either a virtual or in-studio appointment. During the consultation, our clinicians will determine if the prescription is right for you.
How much do prescriptions cost?
Costs of prescriptions vary widely depending on the medication but your clinician will discuss the costs with you during your consultation if the medication is determined to be right for you.
Can I use my insurance to pay for my prescriptions?
At this time, Modern Age is not accepting insurance.
How do I place a prescription order?
