AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Fillers and Other Injectables
••
In my 38 years of practicing medicine, I’ve administered innumerable dermal filler, Botox,, and other cosmetic injections to patients at my San Diego medical spa. I have been a consultant and advisor to many of the pharmaceutical companies that develop these products and have even helped secure the FDA approval of several new dermal fillers. My extensive experience has made me a trusted provider of injectable treatments, which require precision and expertise to create a natural-looking result. I believe in a conservative approach to cosmetic fillers and neuromodulators to best enhance my patients’ natural beauty while helping to restore volume and smooth the look of wrinkles. My staff and I offer a wide variety of dermal fillers at my San Diego practice to ensure that we can help every patient reach their aesthetic goals.

Skin Rejuvenation and Resurfacing
••
Lasers are one of the most effective forms of skin rejuvenation to date, and I’m honored to say that I have pioneered some of the leading laser skin resurfacing treatments in dermatology. Because my staff and I pride ourselves on staying on the cutting edge of technology, we offer a broad range of laser skin rejuvenation treatments at my practice in San Diego. Some of these facial skin resurfacing procedures stimulate collagen production to treat skin laxity and smooth the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Others can powerfully exfoliate, to improve skin texture and correct the appearance of hyperpigmentation. One of the most popular skin rejuvenation treatments at my San Diego medical spa is Take10, a combination of laser skin resurfacing, dermal fillers, and neuromodulator therapies that takes more than 10 years off your appearance in just one session. Each treatment is customized to the patient, to create a result tailored to their unique needs.

Vein Treatments
••
While visible veins generally aren’t a sign of a serious medical issue, they can still be extremely frustrating from a cosmetic perspective, whether they’re on the face (typically indicative of aging, excessive sun exposure, or rosacea) or the legs, chest, hands, or feet (such as spider veins and varicose veins). If you have veins that you find unsightly, come in for a vein treatment consultation at my San Diego practice. I have pioneered many vein treatments and am even called “the godfather of sclerotherapy,” owing to my expertise in this category. To address moderate vein concerns, we typically opt for laser vein treatments like pulsed dye laser therapy, which is an ideal choice to tackle broken capillaries and similar issues. I also offer more significant vein treatments, like sclerotherapy, a series of targeted injections to dissolve varicose veins over time, and phlebectomy, precise removal of large varicose veins.

Dr. Goldman pioneered later treatments and he continues to be the leader in the field. I’ve been seeing him for over 30 years and have had a variety of procedures including Ultherapy, Fraxel, Thermage, and various fillers. My skin is in great condition and is aging well. He provides honest and straightforward advice and always very natural looking results.
I did extensive research before visiting Dr. Goldman. I had significant facial telangiectasia (visible, small dilated blood vessels) caused by a procedure done by another dermatologist in another state (not related to Dr. Goldman's practice). After suffering through treatment after treatment with other dermatologists for almost a year (at a substantial emotional toll), I sought the expert in venous issues and in use of lasers for dermatological purposes, and I found him. It's

I was recommended to him because of all the specialty lasers he has. When you come to this office, you know the treatment was tailored to you!
This is the 3rd time that I see Dr. Goldman. He has done laser to my surgery scar and sclerotherapy for my veins (legs). He is very professional, listen to all your questions and offers you the right treatment. What I like the most is that he lets you know when you don't need an extra procedure, treatment or product even if you ask for it.
Dr.Goldman does an excellent job! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their skin. Dr.Goldman treated a horrible scar I had from a dog bite, as well as scars caused by acne on my chin. I am so grateful he was able to remove the scar on my nose that had been caused by a horribly deep dog bite! And the acne scars on my chin have diminished greatly thanks to the laser treatments. His staff is very kind and personable, and Dr.Goldman himself is very kind and always

Dr. Goldman is by far the best!! He is so incredibly smart, he's always learning and trying new things. He is so honest with me and I love that. If he doesn't think I need something he will tell me... he's not just trying to make money. I've never been so confident in a doctor before and he will always be my go to. Thank you Dr. G :)
I have seen Dr. Goldman for two sessions of laser treatments on my leg during the past year. I had sclerotherapy injections performed at a different location and due to inappropriate aftercare instructions, I still have pigment issues on my leg. Dr. Goldman recommended treatment with different lasers to break up the pigment. Throughout each appointment and laser session he has been considerate and kind and has honestly managed my expectations. I have seen results and will continue

His staff (Antonio, Stephanie, Lisa, Edward, Danny and Keila) provided outstanding customer service and were truly amazing. Everyone was professional, willing to assist and friendly. It was a very positive experience and I highly recommend his office.
Dr. Goldman's level of honesty is refreshing. He is very knowledgeable and personable. It's nice going to a doctor that's not going to push unnecessary procedures. The staff is very professional and the products they sell are wonderful.
I was very thankful to find Dr. Goldman for a lower lip condition. My lip had a bump of scar tissue from a prevuious medical surgery and accident. My lip looked bumpy and red with a tingle 4 years after my surgery. I searched the United States of America for solutions. My confidence was severely shaken. I received three shots over a 2 month period with a combination of F5u and a Steroid. It broke up the scar tissue and stopped the numbness. After 2 months it looked better and
