Beauty medicine has become a rapidly evolving industry, oversaturated with multiple options, and aggressive advertising. As a result consumers are often confused, and even scared, to make a choice. One of the biggest concerns of clients looking for cosmetic procedures is fear of that ridiculous “plastic” look that is so common nowadays on TV. The same “frozen” foreheads and “fish” or “sausage” lips seem to be everywhere! Because of this, most people believe that this is the only way to look after cosmetic procedures! But in reality, 99.9 percent of them simply want to look themselves, but just a little younger or refreshed- and this is exactly what I achieve. My clients repeatedly tell me how after their procedures, friends note that they look better wondering if they got some haircut, started a diet, or are getting better sleep. This sort of result should be the goal of every cosmetic practitioner! Another common misconception among clients is that pain and bruising are inevitable parts of any cosmetic procedure. During my years of practice I have heard some horror stories about excruciating pain and disfigured “black and blue” faces. This should not happen! Pain should not be a part of these treatments. There are several ways to make the procedures painless; this includes ice, numbing creams, and even dental block. Most of the fillers are available with a numbing medication premixed. Any physician should provide adequate numbing for comfortable and minimally traumatic procedure. Also if the doctor takes his time during the procedure then bruising should be absent or very minimal. And finally this field of medicine involves a critical balance between clinical science and art. As such, the outcome of any cosmetic procedure is often directly proportional to the artistic vision of the doctor. A deep sense of correct proportion and aesthetic harmony is critical for success, and ensures avoiding the common “one size fits all” outcome. I have been involved in art since childhood, and have spent hours cultivating my skills in painting, drawing, and sculpting. Moreover, studying the works of masters like Rembrandt and Rubens has helped me to deeply understand facial and body proportions. I therefore invite you to look at some of my paintings in our photo gallery. I am a certified Diplomat of the American Board of Internal Medicine, licensed to practice in New York and California. After my Residency Program I completed a Fellowship in Geriatric Medicine and specialized in anti-aging medicine and skin care since 2004. I’m the medical director of Vita Laser Medical Spa and also an attending physician at Flushing Hospital Medical Center. I have been trained and certified by some of the most notable Laser and Aesthetic companies including Orion/Alma, Lumenis, Candela, Palomar, Cynosure, and Syneron, Allergan, McKesson, The American Society of Non Surgical Aesthetics, Society of Aesthetics in Medicine, and others. I find that I learn something new every day not only from the magazines, media, and training seminars, but also from each and every client in my practice. It is this unique combination of experience in anti-aging, aesthetic medicine, and art- along with my absolute commitment to clinical excellence-that allowed me to elevate the level of my client’s care to the level of Medical Art. |
