The 23 Best In-Office Treatments to Sculpt, Lift, and Enhance

These are the winners of our 2025 Tools and Treatments Awards.

“Everyone does Botox,” Lindsay Lohan recently told ELLE. There’s no doubt about it—the aesthetics industry is booming. In-office treatments both big and small have become less taboo. (On the bigger end, Kylie Jenner was just praised for detailing her breast augmentation specs.) It’s no surprise, then, that the already $80 billion aesthetics industry is projected to be worth nearly $145 billion by 2030.

These in-office services are not created equally. For this year’s Tools and Treatments Awards, we worked with some of our favorite practitioners to try out dozens of different offerings. These ranged from tried-and-true favorites like Botox, lasers, and Hydrafacials to new and next-gen treatments like a Korean skin-tightening device and biostimulatory fillers.

We asked staff to rank services based on how painful they were, if they’d pay for them with their own money, and if they’d recommend them to their friends. The winners all cleared these criteria by a long shot. Keep reading for the best aesthetic treatments out there.

AVAVA

AVAVA is a non-ablative resurfacing laser treatment designed to rejuvenate. It uses a precise technique that targets deep layers of the skin—without damaging the outermost layer—to tighten and firm. It is suitable for all skin types, including deeper tones. Because the special technology effects such deep layers, there is a lower risk of pigment disruption, which can lead to hyperpigmentation for melanated skin tones. Though our tester noted that the pain was tolerable, she did use numbing cream ahead of her treatment. She also reported that the treatment was quick but that the best results came with continued sessions.
