Laser and Cosmetics
Life-enhancing care to help you look and feel your best
If you feel self-conscious about your appearance, our internationally renowned cosmetic dermatologists can help. These skin doctors are known for their cosmetic artistry as well as their medical skills. Our providers invented or helped develop many treatments in use today.
They perform hundreds of treatments every year, using the most extensive selection of nonsurgical laser and cosmetic procedures in Boston. We can provide you with a natural new look that makes you feel confident and refreshed.
Trusted experts in cosmetic dermatology
We customize your treatment plan to meet your specific needs and goals. To provide you with this level of personalized care, you must have an in-person consultation before starting treatment.
During this appointment, your provider:
- Examines your skin and assesses any skin conditions
- Learns more about your concerns and treatment goals
- Reviews your general health and medical history
- Recommends a treatment plan and explains the risks, benefits, number of sessions, and estimated cost
Most medical insurers consider laser and cosmetic dermatology services medically unnecessary. You may need to cover all costs. Please check with your insurer about coverage.
We offer more types of nonsurgical cosmetic procedures than any other provider in the Boston area. Treatments include:
- Body and facial contouring, using light-based technology, controlled cooling, or injections to get rid of small areas of fat
- Botulin toxin injections to relax facial muscles that cause wrinkles and frown lines
- Facial (dermal) fillers and injectables to minimize frown lines, wrinkles around your eyes (crow’s feet), and creases between your eyes
- Injections (sclerotherapy) and laser treatments for spider veins
- Skin-tightening treatments to lift and tone your eyebrows, neck, chin, and chest
