I came in to see Dr. Kang to get rid of a few skin tags on my face/near the eye area that developed over my 2 pregnancies. Dr. Kang was quick and efficient. It's been a few weeks and my skin has healed very nicely. Thank you Dr. Kang!
Couldn't be happier with the result of my laser treatment. The process was easy, staff incredibly helpful and professional and my skin looks and feels years younger. I cannot recommend highly enough!
I went to Prestige Cosmetic Dermatology for the first time last month. The ladies in the front are welcoming and helped me check in. I was brought into a room where Dr. Kang discussed which treatments would benefit my skin and target my areas of concerns, and her nurse, Vivian, was the one who treated me. I was recommended the Ultra Clear laser for facial rejuvenation and the Q switched laser for the brown spots on my cheeks and I was able to get treatment done that same day. We even went ahead with a little Botox on my forehead and glabella. Vivian did an amazing job as I felt minimal pain during all the treatments and I’ve been loving my results. My skin looks more even and fresh and forehead lines aren’t as noticeable.I highly recommend going to Prestige to see Dr. Kang and Vivian and I cannot wait to go back for more!
I had my Avava laser treatment about three weeks ago, and I’m already so happy with the results! I’ve noticed that the redness in my skin is starting to even out, my dark spots have lightened, and even the dark circles under my eyes are becoming less noticeable. I’ve also seen an improvement in my overall skin texture. In fact the gal at the cosmetic counter commented that my skin texture was very nice which feels like such a bonus!I’m really impressed with the changes I’m seeing in such a short time and am excited to see how my skin continues to improve over the coming weeks. The experience at Dr Kang’s office was wonderful, and I’m so glad I decided to give this treatment a try. Dr Kang explained the procedure and answered all of my questions. Nurse Vivian put me at ease during the procedure, was very patient during my follow up answering all of my questions and Jada in the front office was very friendly and attentive.It’s exciting to see these kinds of improvements in my skin, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision! If you’re considering Avava laser treatment, I would definitely recommend looking into it. I’m so glad I took the plunge! ❤️
I had a Fraxel laser treatment at Prestige Cosmetic Dermatology and couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the front desk to the treatment room, the whole staff was friendly and welcoming. They walked me through everything before, during, and after the procedure, so I always knew what to expect.Thanks to Jada for thoroughly applying the numbing gel because the pain was minimal, and I was honestly surprised at how manageable it was. Vivian was skilled, careful, and made me feel comfortable as she applied the laser.As expected, I had some swelling and redness afterward, but it dissipated just as they said it would. The results are amazing! At 60+yrs old, my skin looks like new and my brown spots have disappeared completely.I highly recommend Prestige Cosmetic Dermatology to anyone considering Fraxel or other skin treatments. Thank you Dr. Kang and team!
