Jingduan Yang, MD, FAPA
SYA Founder
Board-Certified Psychiatrist and Integrative Medicine Physician
Dr. Jingduan Yang founded SY Aesthetics on a conviction that beauty is inseparable from health. A board-certified psychiatrist and fifth-generation practitioner of classical Chinese medicine, he brings a rare dual lineage to aesthetic medicine — one that sees the face and body not in isolation, but as reflections of a person’s underlying vitality, balance, and well-being.
Over a career spanning psychiatry, integrative medicine, and aesthetic wellness, Dr. Yang developed the ACES framework — a four-dimensional model of health encompassing Anatomy, Chemistry, Energy, and Spirit. At SY Aesthetics, this philosophy translates into care that goes beyond the surface: results that look natural because they are grounded in the whole person.
Dr. Yang is the author of Face East: Ancient Health and Beauty Secrets for the Modern Age, which distills centuries of Eastern wisdom into practical guidance for vitality and beauty, as well as Clinical Acupuncture and Ancient Chinese Medicine (Oxford University Press). He has built SY Aesthetics into a trusted destination for advanced aesthetic care, with locations in New York City and the Mid-Hudson Valley, supported by a team of skilled physicians and clinical specialists.
His vision for SY Aesthetics is simple and uncompromising: the highest standard of clinical excellence, delivered with the discretion, artistry, and individualized attention that discerning patients expect.
