5/5 STARS
I trust Farzaneh Momeni completely with my skin. She is by far the best clinical aesthetician I’ve ever known. My skin has improved dramatically since I began monthly facials with her. Her treatments are 100% results-driven so if this is what you seek, look no further. Also, the entire Team at West Dermatology are top-notch. They’re always friendly, professional, & helpful, & greet everyone with a smile. 10 Stars all around!
My new regular cosmetic dermatology office. Dr Zubair is amazing and really patient with me. He has helped me over the last year with keloid scar removal, jaw Botox, and full facial acne scar treatment (ultra clear). The office is clean and the nursing/medical assistant staff is accommodating on all levels. I will always recommend this office and Dr Zubair to friends and family.
Most professional and most impressive! The service from the physicians to office staff is superb!
I live in Orange County and drove all the way out to see Dr. Wu because a friend of mine referred him (she had amazing results from her face and neck procedure). Dr. Wu is truly an artist! He made me feel extremely comfortable during my procedure. I was anxious when I got there, but he (and his staff) have such great energy and are so very kind and gentle that you can't help but feel at ease! The office was immaculate and they adhered to covid rules (sanitizing, temp checks, masks). This is my go-to place from now on and Dr. Wu is my go-to guy! Can't wait to see my final results! Thank you Phyllis (pre-op) for being so wonderful and informative! You were so very helpful and kind! I'll definitely be back!
Leysin and the entire team at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology are fantastic. They are professional, caring and communicative. The laser treatment was comfortable, efficient and effective! I highly recommend this practice. I definitely will come back and recommend her and Cosmetic Laser Dermatology to my family and friends.
Dr. Goldman is amazing! I came here for my permanent eyeliner removal (which is not offered anywhere near me), and they are completely removed in just one session. They use a special contact lens to protect your eyes from the laser, and there are no damages to my eyelashes. The healing was also nice and smooth. They have everything you need. I live almost 3 hours away, but it was totally worth the trip. For anyone who is looking to remove their permanent makeup, this is the right place to go :)-
Dr. Butterwick is fantastic, all of her team as well. They make sure your experience is pleasant and painless as possible. My tattoo removal and my injectables look amazing. I highly recommend her for any skin treatment.
Cosmetic Laser Dermatology was recommended to me by my dermatologist. He recommended Dr. Monica Boen. I'm so glad I took his recommendation. Everyone here at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology was super nice and friendly. Very welcoming. I came here for hair removal treatment. I did 4 sessions with Dr. Boen. Dr. Boen made me feel so comfortable and at ease when I talked to her. She explained everything before she did my treatment. I loved that. She was really easy to talk to. I definitely will come back and recommend her and Cosmetic Laser Dermatology to my family and friends.
This office is awesome. My visit today was with Dr. Groff. His bed side manner is so fun and welcoming. He understood my concerns and recommended a treatment plan that I feel was reasonable. I love his staff! They take there time to make sure you understand the treatment and after care. Everyone in the office, from the front desk to the nurses in the back, are so friendly and beautiful. They are very prompt and I trust my care with CLD. I can't wait for my next visit. See you guys in a few weeks!
"Dr. Sabrina Fabi is genius! Her technique is unlike anyone, her eye is precise, and her kindness and caring manner comes from the depth of her soul. She's simply brilliant! It's no wonder people travel the country just to be treated by her."
I wish I could give them 10 stars! I had such an awesome experience for my first visit and I am referring everyone I know to this office. From the super friendly staff to the state of the art procedures, they are the cream of the crop.
“I came to participate in a research study. All of the Doctors and staff at C.L. Dermatology are very professional, warm and friendly. All our my needs were anticipated and the hospitality of this office is like a five star hotel.”
FAQ
Arm skin is thinner than many other body areas and frequently exposed to UV damage. The arms also have less underlying muscle support and fewer oil glands, making them more susceptible to moisture loss, breakdown of essential proteins, and the papery texture characteristic of crepey skin.
The best treatment depends on your skin’s condition. Ultherapy, Sofwave, and Thermage FLX excel for significant tightening and lifting, ThermiTight provides dramatic firming through radiofrequency, Fraxel improves texture and stimulates hyaluronic acid, collagen, and elastic fiber production, while Sculptra and Radiesse offer gradual, long-term improvement through biostimulation.
Arm skin requires specialized approaches due to its thickness, lower sensitivity, and different healing patterns. We adjust energy levels, penetration depths, and treatments specifically for arm anatomy to ensure optimal safety and results.
Yes, most of our treatments can address both arms simultaneously. This approach is often more convenient and cost-effective while ensuring symmetrical results. Treatment time varies from 30-90 minutes depending on the technology used.
Results timelines vary by treatment. Some technologies like IPL and Fraxel Dual show immediate skin quality improvement, while Ultherapy, Sofwave, Thermage FLX and ThermiTight provide gradual tightening over 3-6 months as new hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastic fiber production occurs. Biostimulators continue improving skin for up to two years.
While treatments dramatically improve existing crepiness, normal aging continues. However, the enhanced hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastic fiber production generated by treatments provides ongoing benefits. We recommend maintenance treatments and excellent sun protection to preserve your results long-term.
Our treatments are FDA-approved or cleared and performed by board-certified dermatologists with extensive experience in arm skin rejuvenation. Side effects are typically minimal: mild redness, swelling, or tenderness that resolves within days. We provide detailed pre- and post-care instructions for optimal healing.
