Apple Cheek Specialist and Artist
Dr Polis has the magic touch when it comes to filling cheeks. I'm naturally slim and I have a long face - and with that comes an inevitable flattening of the midface. I started seeing Dr Polis in my early thirties, she used filler to enhance my cheekbones and the apples of my cheeks. The effect was fantastic and transformative. I instantly looked much prettier and refreshed. I'm now a decade on and no longer living in NY and I miss Dr Polis desperately, I've not been able to find

Laurie Revealed my TRUE Skin :) - New York
I visited Dr. Polis after a friend recommended her to me for my acne scars. I'm 26 years old, but my scars from my teenage years still haunt me! I told her my issues, and she immediately formulated a comprehensive game plan including a new skincare regimen supplemented by laser treatment. After only 1 month and 2 visits, my scars are sooo much less noticeable and my skin is glowing. I've never received so many compliments. THIS is what skin in my 20s should look like!

Excellent Doctor - New York
I have been going to Dr. Laurie for years for medical evaluations and I trust no one more. She is thorough and has an excellent bedside manner. I have been going to her for the past year for botox and mine looks better than all of my friends! I don't know much about it so that's my honest barometer.... She is a capable doctor and a kind person.

Let's Face It Folks..Its NYC We Need to Appear Forever Young - New York, NY
I have been seeing Dr Polis for years in reference to general skin care and minor corrections. She has always kept my best interest in mind and provided service with a smile. Being in my late 30s I have slowly come to realize that I ain't getting any younger and it is starting to show. I recently saw Dr Polis for a Juvederm treatment, and let me tell you it was worth every penny. I look and feel 10 years younger. I might have the mind and gray hairs :( of a 37 year old but

Perfect Botox Experience - New York, NY
I went to Dr. Polis after having botox with other doctors in the past. I always had one eyebrow that is slightly higher than the other. She customized my treatment to make sure I was perfectly even. I LOVED the results and will be coming back to Dr. Polis. My frown lines and the lines on my forehead were done.

Best Botox Treatment Ever - Little York, NY
I have been getting Botox for years with many doctors in the city. I finally tried Dr. Polis (one of my co-workers recommended her). This it the first time I can actually say that i don't have that shocked look that i have gotten so many other times. It was 650 dollars for my forehead and between my eyes, which seems pretty standard in NYC. I will use her again for Botox.
Only Cares About the Money and Will Add - Manhattan, NY
I had three sessions of Fraxel a few years ago with Dr. Polis, and the results were underwhelming, but I kept going to her because I figured it wasn't really her fault that the procedure doesn't do much. Then on my last visit she starts pitching Fraxel to me again, saying there was an improved version. 
Had hypopigmentation on my chest, caved to the clinic's marketing bs. 3 years ago I came to Dr. Polis for a consultation for the skin on my chest which had small areas of hypopigmentation.  She said the only treatment for it was fraxel and then left me there to watch a video put out by the company on how great it works on melasma (a term I had never heard before, nor ever diagnosed with).  I was excited that there was a low risk procedure I could do for this
Not Worth It
Fraxel Incredibly Disappointing
I spent $1400 for one session (four to five were recommended). My derm, whom I've been going to for several years for Botox and Juvederm, did the procedure. Stopped after first session because: Incredibly painful -- had the shakes afterwards, probably should have gone to the ER. Looked like a monster -- told there would be no down-time, did not look even remotely normal for seven days. Then I had the massive skin peeling, which didn't bother me since I had looked
