Getting older, wanted to get rid of lines and spots. Treatments in my hometown of NY, NY didn't get me what I wanted and always felt like I was getting ripped off here in NY. Dr A was a breath of fresh air, no hard sale, no pushy treatments, just an honest assessment and incredible results. Completely worth it, so much better than the celebrity derms I've had to deal with here in NY.

Great review?

Dr. A is the best cosmetic derm I've ever had. I've had many over the years here in NY, but never got exactly what I wanted. He is by far the best botox shooter I have had, he is amazing with very little product and his look is natural and fresh. He also does Affirm to rejuvenate my skin and erase blemishes and dark spots. He is also a master of fillers, I've used him for Sculptura and Juvederm and he has given my parenthesis (laugh lines)a much more subtle and natural look. I truly trust Dr. A as he has given me the face I've always wanted and been very honest about what to do and how to minimize unnecessary treatments. Also, his line of products are amazingly cheap and work well. I have recommended him to many of my relatives and friends, not only in the FLA area, but in NY.

oh, yeh, botox is only about 500-750 depending on my units used. juve is around 600, sculptura is around 750-1250, depending on units, affirm is around 1k for several treaments.

Ok, I updated the price on your review to $750.

Ok, so that cost includes other treatments too. Can you estimate how much you paid for only Botox for only yourself? The price you report is used to calculate an average price for Botox, and it's a lot higher than the typical ~$500 price for Botox. Thank you.

eric, no, that's about right, i've been going for 2 years with myself and my wife, yep, a lot of money, but worth it. i was doing a lot research on the internet and found dr. a since we're down in miami quite a bit. we split time between ny and miami and just really got tired of ny drs. some of the treatments were immediate, i.e. affirm and lightening of blems and of course botox. i do botox every 9 months and an affirm facial every year. the before and after are pretty amazing, i'll see if i can get them (they do them in the office). they were even going to use them for the company brochure. oh, plus some hair removal. dr. a has the best equipment from what i understand and researched, so fewer treatments, better results. i cannot be happier, he is truly a gem, just wish he'd expand.

oh, and for sculpture and juve, usually on a needed basis, around every 9-10 months.

Hi diggles,

Oh yay, that's awesome you found such a great doctor in Florida. What made you decide to go to Florida? How long before you saw results? We would love to see pictures. Please keep us updated.

Thanks so much for the review,

Did you add an extra zero in the price?
