Dr. Junaid Syed has always considered himself an artist.

With a family background rich in medical professionals, he was almost destined to follow in their footsteps. But before “Dr. J” did his surgical internship at the University of Alabama and received medical training at Phoenix’s Good Samaritan Hospital, before meeting his wife of nearly 25 years in medical school, and even before making Florida his home in 1984, a young Dr. J was working with very different media during his youth.

“When I was living in New Orleans, I used to make the ceramic Mardi Gras masks: I would mold, paint and bake them. As a child, I was able to write on a grain of rice. I could write a whole sentence, like ‘I love New Orleans,’” he says. “And when I was in high school here in Florida, I used to airbrush T-shirts.”

Now, and for the past decade, Dr. J has been devoting his time and talents to his patients at Orlando’s New U Med Spa, ensuring they leave his office feeling like veritable works of art, too.

“If I’m doing someone’s face, it’s not one-size-fits-all: It’s the person I see,” he explains. “And then it’s about how I need to make them look better, how I need to make them look younger. It’s an art. That’s why I chose to be a doctor, and then on top of it, to be an artist.” 

Dr. J offers his patients a comprehensive suite of anti-aging injections, procedures and surgeries that target not only the face, body and skin but also patients’ hair, hormones and sexual wellness. It is New U Med Spa’s mission to provide the latest and greatest in world-class facial work, body aesthetic treatments and joint therapy solutions.

Those services range from injectables (including Botox, nonsurgical reshaping and intravenous nutrition therapy), to facial rejuvenation (such as microblading and platelet-rich options that utilize the patient’s own blood for its growth and rejuvenation potential), body enhancements (like lifts, fat transfers, contouring and repair), to hair restoration and transplants, to male and female sexual wellness procedures. 

Being a certified practitioner of the Vampire procedures that the Kardashians have popularized means that one of the most currently in-demand aesthetic services is also available at New U. It’s not just limited to Vampire Facials and Vampire Facelifts, as Dr. J can also perform Vampire Breast Lifts and Vampire Scar Repair, too, using platelet-rich plasma. 

Offering both non-invasive and surgical options means that patients can choose what procedures best suit their cosmetic goals, recovery time and budgets. 

New U Med Spa also includes a handful of trademarked services only available through Dr. J. Those include nonsurgical procedures like the 30-Minute FaceLift and 30-Minute BreastLift, which are affordable cosmetic options that offer instant, long-lasting results with no recovery time.

It’s not just his innovation, artistry and attention to detail that set Dr. J apart, though. He’s also more than happy and prepared to educate his clients about what to expect from beginning to end, as well as gently correct any misconceptions people have about the extent of what plastic surgery, fillers and other aesthetic treatments can do.

“Sometimes, people seem to think that a single treatment of anything will send them back in time 30 years so they look like they did at 18 years old—that’s not going to be the case,” he says. “There’s not a magic to it, and what works for one person won’t always work for another person. One treatment or one shot of Botox or filler isn’t going to make everything go away.”

To thwart misconceptions while making sure clients’ expectations remain realistic, Dr. J expertly explains how surgeries and procedures are performed, as well as what a patient can expect from their results. He’ll also advise them on the additional procedures beyond a one-time visit that will help them get closer to their aesthetic goals, offering popular, effective suggestions with proven success. 

“Fat transfers are one way to achieve natural results by taking fat from one part of the body to give another area their desired shape,” he explains. “This also comes with the benefit of a faster healing time since I use a product that is directly from an individual’s own body.”

It all creates an informative, open and inviting environment and encourages the successful results that keep patients satisfied, coming back and acting as word-of-mouth ambassadors raving about the quality of Dr. J’s work and artistry.

“A testimonial is the biggest compliment,” says Dr. J.  “When, for example, you do a hair transplant on a patient or they have really nice skin after a procedure, and then they say they feel younger and have more confidence, that’s a great compliment.”
