53, female, removed cyst with a slight scar - Dr. Lee is the real deal!

I like to joke that I became a patient of Dr. Michelle Lee on purpose, and a plastic surgery patient by accident, on purpose. Last winter I had a consult with my third dermatologist on removing a cyst from my back. All three doctors told me I would receive a scar that spread and looked ugly, so I should just steel myself by having it drained every so often. Are you kidding me??? Two of these dermatologists are successful Beverly Hills doctors. It was at one of the BH doctor's offices that, while fuming in her waiting room at the rude treatment I received from her staff - seriously, the DMV a few days earlier had been nicer than this doctor's staff - I found myself flipping through a magazine and came across a lovely article written about Dr. Michelle Lee.  Dr. Lee's whole ethos is positivity, caring and patients first. I am here to tell you this is true. I immediately made an appointment with Dr. Lee and, to be honest, her staff sealed the deal (special shout out to the lovely Lexi!). The warmth, caring and kindness I received upon my first phone call reinforced my feeling this was the doctor to remove my cyst and leave me with a slight scar. I am happy to report my feeling was correct. Dr. Lee's caring of me post-surgery is what amazes me. In her eyes, her job is not done until my scar is the best it can be. And nine months later, I am here to tell you that I wear backless dresses with confidence now. But as for other treatments... as a woman in her mid-fifties, who has taken excellent care of her skin (I worship at the altar of sunblock and take an obsessive amount of supplements and tonics) I have never had Botox, fillers, or any plastic surgery procedure. This said... in my very critical eye, I at last started seeing 'things' in the mirror that I wasn't pleased about. Nothing major, but I was used to looking a certain way, from my thirties on, that suddenly, at 53 was fading. Enter Courtney Coons, Dr. Lee's Board Certified Nurse Practitioner. Courtney is AMAZING. She took me through a Sofwave treatment and it was like hanging out with a girlfriend, she is so kind, funny and knowledgeable. (Courtney was an ER nurse in New York during the pandemic. Great respect for this beautiful woman.) Both Dr. Lee and Courtney are naturally beautiful women. Take your cues for how they view cosmetic procedures and surgery based on how gorgeous and natural they look. The result of my Sofwave? "You don't age" was what one friend I hadn't seen in years recently said to me. Others who see me all the time, have commented how great my skin looks, and "I want what you have." And to those.. well, I refer them to Perk's website :-)  Thank you, Dr. Lee!
