Joe Simone, President of Simone Development Companies, Sees Plastic Surgery Trends Driving Design of Medical Facilities

BRONX,NY (Sept 13, 2021) — An explosive growth in minimally invasive cosmetic procedures is influencing the design of dermatologists’ and plastic surgeons’ offices, according to Joe Simone, President of Simone Development Companies.

“Medical practices want larger treatment rooms that can accommodate the latest cosmetic technology for skin resurfacing and cellulite treatment,” said Joseph Simone. “As the laser technology improves and delivers better results, we’re seeing skyrocketing demand for laser treatments nationwide.”

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons’ 2020 statistics, total cosmetic procedures grew 131 percent between 2000 and 2020. The cosmetic procedures with the biggest growth over the 20-year period were minimally invasive procedures including laser skin resurfacing (483 percent) and cellulite treatment (261 percent). Surgical procedures with the biggest growth over the 20-year period include cheek implants (938 percent) and upper arm lifts (4,174 percent).

“Many of the medical facilities we have delivered in recent years include dermatology-office and cosmetic-surgery floor plans, including the Hutchinson Metro Center in the Bronx, N.Y. and WESTMED locations in Purchase, N.Y. and Greenwich, Conn.,” said Joseph Simone. “Simone Development Companies expects to continue new construction or renovation that includes dermatology and cosmetic surgical offices and operating rooms.”

The use of non-invasive procedures to slow the signs of aging are on the rise. According to the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS), the pandemic created a surge in surgical demand not seen in recent years. Even though many non-essential surgeries and aesthetic services were put on hold for months during the pandemic, AAFPRS members note that demand grew higher than ever.

“People are staring at themselves on screens during teleconference all day,” said Joe Simone. “That’s why so many people are seeking options like eyelid procedures to look less tired on camera. With remote working expected to increase in the future, it’s a sure bet more people will want to improve their appearance and seek medical solutions.”

Hospitals to Seek New Revenue Models Amid Declining Patient Overnight Stays

BRONX NY (August 2021) — Healthcare real estate developer Joseph Simone says that the declining rate of hospital stays is prompting providers to seek new revenue models involving elective surgery and outpatient services.

“For the past four decades we’ve seen a remarkable decline in average hospital stays that is reshaping the medical landscape. Many hospitals have closed while those that remained open have launched multi-million-dollar expansions to help them replace the revenue from declining hospital stays,” said Joe Simone, President of Simone Development Companies.

According to statistics from the Centers for Disease Control, the average length of a hospital stay declined nationally from 11.4 days in 1975 to 6.1 days in 2014.

“These government statistics are the reason why my company built the New York metro region’s first ‘bedless hospital,’ an 11-story facility in the Bronx that focuses on outpatient medical services that include surgery,” said Joseph Simone, referring to the 280,000-square-foot Montefiore Ambulatory Care Center. “Increasingly, we are seeing the construction of similar centers throughout the region and nationally.”

Hospitals are spending big money on new ambulatory centers as outdated sick wards receive fewer extended-stay patients. In Harrison, NY situated in the heart of Westchester County’s “Medical Mile” along I-287, Simone recently completed 104 Corporate Park Drive, a state-of-the-art pediatric ambulatory care facility custom designed for Montefiore Medical Center.

“These centers are critical for aging hospitals as they seek to upgrade their delivery of high-quality, specialty care,” said Joe Simone. “Today’s healthcare consumers are demanding higher levels of service and comfort from hospitals, which means that developers and landlords must pay special attention to building design.”
