HEAR FROM OUR HAPPY PATIENTS
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.”
Why You'll Love Us
Expert Dermatologist Injectors
Our board-certified dermatologists personally administer Restylane Contour treatments themselves – we’re one of the few dermatology practices in San Diego where board-certified physicians perform injections. This ensures you receive the highest level of expertise and safety.
Revolutionary XpressHAn Technology
Restylane Contour is the first dermal filler for cheeks to utilize XpressHAn technology, the same innovation found in Restylane Kysse, Refyne, and Defyne. This proprietary technology creates a unique blend of flexibility and viscosity for natural-looking results.
Natural Dynamic Movement
Unlike other fillers that can feel stiff, Restylane Contour’s smooth gel moves naturally with your facial expressions. Whether in motion or at rest, you’ll enjoy natural-looking cheek contours that may require less filler to achieve your desired results.
Comprehensive Treatment Options
We have expertise with all midface fillers, including Restylane Contour, Restylane Lyft, RHA® 4, and Juvéderm® Voluma. Our dermatologists will help determine the best hyaluronic acid filler for your precise needs and aesthetic goals.
Comfortable Treatment Experience
Restylane Contour contains lidocaine as a local anesthetic to reduce discomfort. Combined with our expert injection technique using ultrafine needles, treatments are comfortable with minimal pain and immediate return to normal activities.

What Makes Restylane Contour Different?
Restylane Contour sets itself apart through Galderma’s unique XpressHAn Technology, which results in a smooth, flexible gel that seamlessly integrates with skin and soft tissue. This creates several key advantages:
Dynamic Flexibility
The smooth gel moves naturally with your facial expressions, creating natural-looking cheek contours whether in motion or at rest.
Better Integration
The unique blend of flexibility and viscosity allows the filler to better integrate into your skin for more natural results.
Efficient Results
The advanced technology may mean using less filler to achieve your desired aesthetic goals.
Proven Innovation
This is the same hyaluronic acid technology successfully used in other Restylane products for lips and lower face enhancement.
Treatment Process
Treatment at our state-of-the-art facility is highly refined and usually takes less than an hour, depending on the extent of your treatment and number of injections needed.
Our doctors perform Restylane Contour procedures with expert technique using ultrafine needles to minimize discomfort. The filler contains lidocaine, which works as a local anesthetic to ensure a comfortable experience.
We may recommend combining your Restylane Contour treatment with other dermal fillers or neuromodulators like Botox®, Daxxify®, Dysport®, Jeuveau®, or Xeomin®. This “liquid facelift” approach allows us to address multiple concerns without extending treatment time or requiring recovery periods.
You can return immediately to your normal routine after treatment. Side effects are mild and may include temporary swelling, bruising, and tenderness that typically resolve within a day or two. As with all our injectable treatments, any bruising can be treated the next day with complimentary pulse dye laser to speed resolution.
Ideal Candidates
Restylane Contour treatments are ideal for patients age 21 and older who want to correct deflated, hollow-looking cheeks. We recommend this treatment for those just beginning to show volume loss and aging signs in the midface area.
Ideal candidates are generally healthy with realistic expectations about their aesthetic goals. As a Center of Excellence in the Art and Science of Rejuvenation, our anti-aging experts understand aging effects and how they impact appearance and self-esteem.
