Another question I get a lot is: “Who does the injections in your practice?”

The answer is: Me.  Always me.

I have many reasons why I do all of the injections here, and I want to give you an good explanation so that you understand and are comfortable every time you come for your procedure.

First, I really enjoy it. Injection of dermal fillers is part medical procedure and part artwork. Having the ability to take a syringe and use it to sculpt the human face is a very engaging and enjoyable process for me as a doctor and artist.

Second, treating the face with dermal fillers like Juvederm and neuromodulators like Botox takes lots of training, a keen eye, and steady hands. I have extensive experience with all of these products and spend my entire day, everyday, studying/working/living the human face. These procedures are more complex than simply injecting a product into the area of need. The intricate curvatures of the face, the complex underlying structures, and how these change over time are things that takes years to master.  These are things that have become my entire career.

Third, I want you to be comfortable with the person who is performing your procedure. You can be reassured that I have spent years learning this craft and have been certified through the rigorous training and standards required to be a physician.

And finally, to assure quality control over every injection in my practice, I simply want to be the one to do it myself. I am always the one you see when you visit our practice.

Here’s to the beautiful human face,
