Sejal Shah, MD

The experience was wonderful. This treatment had little to no downtime and Dr.Shah was great. This microneedling technique didn't even hurt and I saw results right away! If you are considering microneedling treatments, the Vivace is the one to get.

The pain was totally tolerable after numbing and the smoothing/tightening effect can be seen immediately after. will update if any change over time. I went with a high depth/rf level (6) and found it totally bearable. 


I received this complimentary treatment at the RealSelf House of Modern Beauty

Seven years ago, I was experiencing severe hair loss. After seeing multiple dermatologists, I was referred to Dr. Shah by one of her colleagues. Dr. Shah was the only doctor that diagnosed my medical condition and came up with a plan to aggressively treat my hair loss. I wore a wig for 9 months and as you can imagine it was a very dark and depressing time for me. Eventually my hair began to grow under that wig and my hair grew in thicker than I could have ever imagined. Dr. Shah is a very compassionate and through physician. She is current on all new medical treatments in the field of dermatology.
Dr. Shah, suggested there was an underlying medical problem that was causing my hair loss and referred me to my primary doctor. Through blood tests I found out I had Lupus, an autoimmune disease.
I continue to see her for all of my dermatological needs. She is a true professional and I would never see anyone else. She has my trust...

SmarterSkin Dermatology also, has a top notch office staff. Whenever I call with a problem they get me in to see the doctor asap.

I love Dr. Shah's down-to-earth nature and natural results! I had Fraxel laser on my face, neck, hands and chest to get rid of some textural issues and sun damage. I feel refreshed and my skin looks glowy and feels smooth.

Dr. Shah is AMAZING, I would highly recommend her. I saw her recently for my botox treatment. She was very kind + personable and I appreciated that she spent time with me to explain the procedure + all my treatment options. She started very conservatively with my botox and I genuinely believed she cared about my results. I wouldn't hesitate recommending Dr. Shah for botox or other derm services. I have also seen Nicole Lyons, Dr. Shah's PA who was also wonderful. She was the first dermatologist to clear up my acne. Both providers are top notch and I highly recommend visiting the downtown office for both botox + acne needs.

Amazing, smart sweet and educated. She is by far one of the best doctors in NYC. She is patient and tales her time to make sure you’re comfortable and well informed. Gentle, so very little pain is felt throughout the procedures and she doesn’t make your visits feel rushed.

**WARNING: after the procedure you wallet will be very upset with the amount of lipstick you buy!!! :)

Since lipstick is so popular now, I would always try some on at the makeup counter but was never satisfied with the way I looked with some on.

Since I've got my lips done I am so much more confident. I'm unafraid to put on crazy lipstick colors and draw attention to my larger, fuller, beautiful lips. They look so natural and Dr. Shah is an expert in technique which made the process virtually painless. She enhanced both my lips and gave me the exact pout I had envisioned. Her demeanor is of one who truly cares about patient satisfaction. Thank you Dr. Shah for the confidence and lip boost.

This time I went to Dr. Shah for Botox and Fillers. (I've been her patient for years) She is extremely well trained, current on all the latest procedures and equipment, and has amazing technique. The fillers softened the overall look of my face while giving my cheekbones more definition. I love the results!

I was very impressed with the time and easy comfortable atmosphere. Dr. Shah herself made me feel at ease and and took all the time needed to answer all my questions and put me at ease while I go for my treatments. She is so kind, thorough, knowledgeable. Her staffs is very lovely. I will definitely refer my friends and family here. They were great and I think more people should know about them. I was very satisfied with my visit. I am thrilled with the results. AMAZING.

I'm tired of the saddle bags, but not willing to go under the knife. since it was just saddle bags it was 3 spots on each thigh, 4 passes on each. some pain for sure (intense burning, like being branded), but it was short lived. am anxious to see if it works over the next 3 months! will upload "before" photos when dr sends them. right now, about an hour after, no pain, maybe a little achy. no bruising as yet. I will keep this posted as things develop.

sorry i didn't clarify, this is my liposonix review and progress.

Updated on 19 Nov 2015:
pictures of bruises which appeared 4 days post liposonix. one leg had no bruises. the pain is super mild, swelling is mild as well. i did take a few doses of arnica 2 days prior but it upset my stomach, so I did not take all doses and did not continue post procedure.
