Triple Board-Certified, and She Still Does the Injecting Herself

The name is French, and so is the front room. But the thing that makes Parfaire worth a profile is not the décor — it is the credential stack of the woman who founded it. Dr. Winnie Moses is, per her practice, triple board-certified: Emergency Medicine, Aesthetic Medicine, and Longevity Medicine. Three boards is unusual. Most physicians spend a career earning one.

Before medicine, she earned a master's in biochemistry from the Colorado School of Mines, finishing second in her class as the youngest student in it, with a thesis published in the Journal of Applied Chemistry. Then an MD and an emergency residency at Albert Einstein and Long Island Jewish Medical Center, where she was chief resident and won the Janet M. Glasgow award. Twenty-plus years on.

Here is the line in her file I keep coming back to: she performs the procedures herself, rather than delegating to assistants. In an industry where the person you booked with often is not the person who picks up the needle, that is not a small thing. It is the difference between buying a name and buying a pair of hands.

Parfaire cleared the public-record screen that puts a spa on the register as Aura Screened — the medical director the state can find, the address that matches its filing, a review history that accrued like a real business's. The credentials above are the bonus. The screen is the floor.

You cannot always tell, from a glossy website, whether the doctor on the About page is the one who will treat you. Sometimes the only way to know is to ask. With Parfaire, the answer the public record gives is: yes, and here is exactly who she is.
