I’m a board-certified dermatologist, specializing in minimally invasive cosmetic procedures and cosmetic surgery with specialized training in dermatologic surgery and facial plastics. My basic and translational research focus is on cutaneous immunology, previously to minimize immunosuppression for hand and face transplants, and now with a focus on clinical trials for injectable fillers, toxins, and energy-based devices. I am also actively involved in the emerging role of autologous cryopreservation to develop cell-based therapies for a variety of indications including hair regrowth, skin rejuvenation, injury recovery, amongst others.
