Dr. Pruzan is excellent at what she does. I have gone there for Botox and fillers and never walk out looking like a clown. She stops at just the right moment to make you look natural.

As a physician I have seen and met many physicians. I am particularly pleased with Dr. Pruzan-Clain's knowledge and bedside manner. She is extremely smart, thoughtful and always answers all of my questions. I can't recommend her or her office enough.

I saw Dr. Pruzan on and off for a few years and always had good experiences. A year ago, however, she unfortunately made an unprofessional decision about a mark I had in my face and pushed much too hard with one her tools to remove the mark. I now have a scar as a result. After getting opinions from other cosmetic dermatologists on how I could fix the scar, I have resigned myself to having it for the rest of my life.

Warm, friendly. Turned out she had treated my mom as well but I hadn't realized it when I went to her. We both loved her.

My friends were so right. She is terrific. My kids love coming to her office. She's as good with kids as she is with adults. I can as easily talk to her about my acne as I can my wrinkles.
