A cosmetic laser surgeon is a board-certified dermatologist who has completed a one-to-two-year fellowship in laser surgery. This is a distinction unique to only a few select dermatologists around the country. Dr. Cameron Rokhsar is a fellowship-trained cosmetic laser surgeon who has been using the most up-to-date laser procedures for years. In his practice, many conditions can be treated with lasers to improve patients’ appearances. These include fat, acne, acne scars, surgical scars, burn scars wrinkles, fine and moderate lines, brown spots, hyperpigmentation, hair (laser hair removal), tattoos (tattoo removal), and permanent makeup (removal). Leg veins, varicose veins, broken capillaries, rosacea, port wine stains, hemangiomas, birthmarks, sun damage, and loose skin to name a few. A cosmetic surgeon ultimately creates a more aesthetically pleasing look for the patient. Whether it’s improving scars, or the shape of the face, eyelid, or nose, cosmetic surgeons are the pioneers of beauty. Cosmetic surgery is concerned with improving the aesthetic appearance of a person, while plastic surgery may include this, or just reconstruction (reconstructive surgery). Reconstructive plastic surgery is concerned with improving function; however, it may also involve trying to improve the aesthetic appearance. Using laser technology, Dr. Rokhsar can direct the laser or a device’s energy into specific areas of concern, targeting specific tissues. The laser Dr. Rokhsar will decide to use depends on the type of treatment being administered. With specialized fellowship training in laser and cosmetic surgery, Dr. Rokhsar can offer his patients the latest and most advanced techniques for treating a variety of conditions.
