Jeff Rapaport, MD

Came to see Dr. Rapaport for my acne scarring. I came in to the office with no hope thinking my face won’t look normal ever again. After having a consult with Dr. Rapaport and getting subscision/ PRP and infini done I can say I feel more confident to take pictures and I can wear less make up. Dr. Rapaport gave me back my confidence. Not only did I have great experience with the procedure, let’s not forget how amazing and kind his staff is, all are very attentive to your needs, I was very nervous but they’re very friendly and made me feel like I was in good hands. I’m very grateful for my decision in trusting Dr.Rapaport and his staff to help me with my Acne scar problem. Definitely will be coming back for further procedures and recommending him for his great service!!!!

I have always been extremely insecure on all my scarring and have spent countless amounts of money on procedures. After seeing minor results & doing ALOT of research I came across Dr Rapaport & decided to give it a go.

Dr Rapaport and his staff were nothing short of amazing! After my first consult I scheduled my appointment for Subscision, PRP, and Infini. (For a busy Dr, they got me into his schedule within two weeks of my consult which was major points for me). Besides the numbing, everything was painless! I followed up with Dr Rapaport two days after in his Old Bridge office (again accomodated me as Old Bridge office was WAY closer to where i live!) My down time was about a week because you of course have needle marks where he enters the site but for me they healed rather quickly. You also have to suction the sites (he does give you a device) so the scar tethers don’t reattach. My first round definitely helped improve my cheeks most. After 4 weeks I went back to see him again for a follow up where he decided I should get another round done.

By the time my second session came around and we analyzed my face and marked it up- We definitely didn’t have to do as many spots on my cheeks as the first round which definitely made me alone think the money spent was worth it. Second procedure was as quick and painless as the first and followed up with him same as my first procedure. Since my second procedure i was told to microneedle daily with a .3 roller and follow up with him in a couple weeks.

I am now a little over six weeks post my second procedure and just visited Dr Rap again today for a follow up. We both agreed my cheeks had great improvement. My forehead definitely improved (will post pictures) But Of course my biggest concern is my forehead and I want more improvement (as we all do, haha!) he did recommend that now that we subscised we can go to filler. I am scheduling my appt for that to see him in the next couple weeks and will go from there.

Overall, I definitely recommend Dr Rap. He has a ton of experience and has been nothing but very nice and knowledgable and has answered any question I’ve had. I really can’t thank him enough for giving me improvement in my insecurities that I’ve had for quite some time. I know I’ll never get perfection so any % of improvement is a win and money well spent for me. Even when I wasn’t in the office, I emailed Debra from his staff some concerns/questions and she even shared my email with him and they got back to me that same day. Nidia his assistant as well, Amazing! She was so sweet and caring and made me feel extremely comfortable as well.

Thank You Dr Rapaport for Everything! Looking forward to continuing with you for all my procedures and needs!

I added some photos but mostly of forehead as thats been my main concern for forever. Cheeks were less of my worries so I didn’t really capture any photos to check the improvement!

Update- top is prior to all procedures done and bottom is five months post of 2 subscisions with PRP, RF Microneedling, and then Filler. Unsure if worth all of the money. Do feel like I am basically back to square one with minimum improvement.

I have acne scars for over 10 years. I did one PRP & Subcision in Dr. Rapaport's office, I can see my skin improved 70%. After a month, I did one treatment of Mirconeedling RF to reinforce the result. It helps more. My skin is glowing now. Scars gone, but there are some red spots on my face still, Dr said it will go away gradually, I cant wait to see the final result... It is good that Dr did follow-up appointments after each procedure done, which is helpful and important to me, I have many questions and concerns after every treatment and he removed my concerns.

My acne/scarring journey is a long one, so I’ll try to condense it as much as possible. I am a 46 year old female. I started getting deep, cystic acne nodules in my late teens. Sometimes they would come to the surface of my skin so I’d pick endlessly, while other times they remained dormant, albeit sore and feeling like hard marbles. I tried every acne cream and product over the counter, all to no avail. As I entered my twenties I decided to take serious action, so I asked my local dermatologist if she would consider putting me on accutane (up until this point she had me try Retin-a, as well as tetracycline, however nothing was effective), and she agreed. While the 5 month course of accutane was effective at controlling my acne, I was left with rolling acne scars. 

In my thirties I was financially in a position to do something about the scarring, so I started with micro needling and subcision. While I feel like the multiple micro needling sessions helped with the shallower scars, beyond a shadow of a doubt it was the subcision as that truly released the tethered scarring that forms rolling, saucer type scarring. The key is to be patient and persistent! I have had 7 (or maybe 8?) subcisions during the course of 10 years with Dr. Rapaport in New Jersey. I can hear the nokor needle as well as the cannula, breaking up the fibrous tissue that bounds the scar in a “popping” sound. Dr. Rapaport accompanies PRP after he performs subcisions to promote further healing. After the 3rd day of the procedure I suction every day for 2 weeks. This helps to prevent the re-tethering of the scars, and after every subcision I get gradual improvement. 

PLEASE don’t give up or become discouraged with your scarring as something can be done about it! I’ve spent many years reading this forum as well as acne.org to see the latest treatments available, but the one thing I can tell you is that subcision is the best procedure if you have rolling scars. It has been a long, expensive journey, but I am grateful to Dr. Rapaport for his expertise and knowledge in the field of acne scarring.

I recently moved back from Chicago and was looking for a new doctor in the NJ area to help continue treating my acne scars. I had found Dr.Rapaport online from all his positive reviews in treating acne scars. Although, he is a hour away from me I wanted to give it a try and see what could be done for my acne scars with his treatment. I so far have had one single treatment done with him and it was subscision with PRP and was so surprised in how amazing my results were from one treatment with him. My scars have improved more than the multiple treatments I have had done with other doctors during my time in Chicago. I highly recommend him and his office.

Excellent experience with consultation and first treatment. I have been wanting to see Dr Rapaport for years after reading reviews for his success in acne scar treatments. It's a four hour drive so I put it off and have seen local doctors with little results and some money wasted. Three days ago I had subscision with PRP and so far the results are amazing but it's still very early to see the end result. What I can say for sure is that he is incredibly knowledgeable and is a great doctor. His staff is equally as great. Everyone I dealt with was very nice and professional. I am so glad I made the trip to this office and I look forward to more treatments here. I will post pictures when the swelling and prp has settled!

I would like to take this oppurtunity to express my graditude to Dr. Rapaport and his staff. I had been to multiple doctors to treat my acne scars and with one single treatment at Dr. Rapaport's office my scars have improved more than the multiple treatments I have had with other doctors. Dr. Rapaport is an expert in his field with acne scars and keeps up on all the latest break-through science for treatments. I highly recomend him and his office.

I have had a consultation with Dr. Rapaport and he recommended that I get a combination treatment consisting of Nokor+Cannula subcision followed by Infini RF followed by Fractionated CO2 laser and PRP. Dr. Rapaport said that with my scarring (Pretty severe and across 75% of my face)(mostly rolling and boxcar), I would probably need two treatments spaced about 6 months apart.(to allow us to see full results of the first treatment before determining if a second one is needed.)
The procedure wasn't bad at all. They give you laughing gas to relax you during numbing injections and during CO2 laser, but I opted not to use the gas as it wasn't really that bad.
I had the procedure done 5 weeks ago and I keep seeing results day by day. As of 5 weeks out I would estimate my overall improvement to be somewhere around 60% on my left cheek, 70% on my forehead, 40% on my right cheek and 40% on temples.
This is crazy to think about as during my consultation with Dr. Rapaport, I have told him that I would be happy with 30% improvement after the procedure. I remember he said, " If you will be happy with 30%, then you will be really happy!", and at first I didn't really think more than 30% in one treatment was possible.
The reason I have chosen Dr. Rapaport is because I felt that he has tremendous knowledge in acne scar revision. You can tell even if you know nothing about acne scar revision or have never done your research. The amount of confidence he has in what he does only comes with years and years of experience.
His staff is very good! Nidia was very nice and genuinely caring and his assistant Debbie was very nice and knowledgeable working alongside Dr. Rapaport.
Dr. Rapaport himself is an amazing doctor who I felt truly cares about the well being of his patients and does everything he can to get the best results for his patients without recommending costly and useless treatments that might produce mediocre results.
The wait in the office was fairly long every time, but it did not matter to me, as I knew that I was going to one of the best doctors for acne scar revision.

All throughout pregnancy and during breastfeeding my hair was as usual. After I stopped breastfeeding my hair became really thin and sparse. I was upset after all that I've gone through - I wanted my hair back.

I started Scalp PRP injections at Dr. Rapaport's office in NJ. After 4 treatments done once each month my hair is thicker and there are no sparse areas. I am so relieved to have my hair back. It's so important for moms to feel like the women they are after pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Thanks Dr. Rapaport and his great staff!

Dr. Rapaport has changed my self-confidence, and my life. I started losing my hair when I was about 13 years old and I spent over 10k visiting different doctors, trying different "FDA approved" treatments (both topical and oral) and nothing worked. It wasn't until I heard about PRP that I started doing more research. I watched Dr. Rapaport's PRP testimonials, learned I was the perfect candidate for PRP & decided to take the chance. Dr. Rapaport not only took the time to sit down with me and learn about me and what I have tried, he explained the process to me. He is by far the most knowledgable doctor I have met, & I cannot stop raving about him (he even tested PRP on himself). I started getting PRP about 2 years ago & the first few times I went I saw no improvements, & stopped going, BUT they called me and asked me why I stopped coming and they said come back in lets try this a different way. NOW, many people could say this was to regain your business but Dr. Rapaport's office is always packed & one client does not effect his bottomline, this call was simply because "I am the perfect candidate & there is no reason why PRP wasn't working" I took the chance and went back in for another appointment, Dr. Rapaport & i sat down, we discussed my medical history, what medications I was taking, etc. & he created a custom PRP treatment for me, discovered what medications I should & shouldn't be on. What speaks volumes is that with an office full of people he is dedicated to each & everyone of his clients & their progress (he is not just in it for the money). The custom PRP treatment plan he created for me worked in just 2 treatments & my life has changed completely all thanks to DR. Rapaport! If you are struggling with hair loss, stop wasting money on treatments that don't work. If you are losing your hair, please do yourself a favor & go see Dr. Rapaport, he has literally changed my life, my attitude, my confidence & most importantly my hair is so no longer falling out, or thinning, it has grown significantly, what was once bald spots are now spots full of hair! (I used to live in NJ, now I live in FL & I fly to NJ to see him, trust me, it is worth the trip)!
